Summary/Abstract: This paper is based on recent academic literature and focuses on international differences in accounting. A hot topic of the last twenty-five years has been international accounting harmonization. This paper sees accounting harmonization as a common movement among accounting regulators, standard setters and educators in different nations towards the same goal. As a result EU companies working in different accounting environments with different emphases on particular issues using different accounting concepts with different traditions have been building new common standards of reporting.
