| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we conducted an analysis on the social needs for contemporary financial accounting through a questionnaire survey and interviews et.al. in order to confirm the validity of the traditional understanding, that is "top priority objective of financial accounting = decision-making usefulness". As a result, we revealed the fact that accounting information is not only used for investment decision-making by users of financial statements in the capital market, but also used for other wide purposes by the preparers of the financial statements and other constituents in modern economic society. In addition, we clarified the concrete situation as to how preparers and users of financial statements put emphasis on "individual accounting information" and utilize it.
