Abstract

Economic globalization has affected accounting and auditing practices, as it has many other areas. Its impact on accounting has emerged in international accounting standards and independent auditing. There is pressure on the European Union countries to benefit from the New York segmentation of these standards. In parallel with these developments, IASB (International Accounting Standards Board) was established in 1973 to create a common accounting system for companies around the world, and internationally accepted accounting standards were established under the name of International Accounting Standards (IAS). To use these common accounting practices effectively, as of Jan. 1, 2005, publicly traded companies in the European Union have been obliged to apply the consolidated financial statements to the public in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) adopted by the European Union.
