Contemporary Issues in Accounting Regulation looks at accounting
regulation in a different way. The opening chapters explore the
tension between the power of the state and the forces of the
market, and other aspects of the political dimension to accounting
regulation. The book also examines the process of setting
accounting standards, highlighting the crucial role of standard
setters in assessing the level of public support for an issue in
the face of opposing positions taken by powerful interest groups.
In addition, the book provides an introduction to the theoretical
framework of accounting regulation, looking at choices between
controversial accounting methods and at markets that are
characterized by asymmetry of information and beliefs. The final
chapters of the book are concerned with creative accounting,
deregulation of financial reporting by smaller companies, and the
link between price regulation and accounting policy choices.
