The draft chart of accounts published by the Public Oversight Accounting and Auditing Standards Authority was used for the accounts that on the accounting records. The practices were handled and resolved separately according to the "actual cost method" and "predetermined cost methods". The differences between the accounts in the draft chart of accounts and those in the uniform chart of accounts have been examined. It has been evaluated that what should be considered in accounting for which cost method. There are some differences in the reporting of expenses in research and development phases for internally developed intangible assets.
