| Research Abstract |
The objective of this Research is to perform a comprehensive research on various issues which will be faced when adopting International Accounting Standards(IAS)/International Financial Reporting Standards(IFRS) into Japan.
In the first year(April 2002-March 2003), we reviewed the responses of various countries to IAS. The relationship of IAS with International Standards of Auditing and with the Commercial Code of Japan was also examined. The differences between IAS and Japanese accounting standards were analyzed and the recommendations were made to the relationship between IASB and the Japanese accounting standards setter. And we carried out Questionnaire Survey to preparers and users of financial statements on the adoption of IAS into Japan and the Japanese accounting system.
In the second year(April 2003-March 2004), we analyzed the results of questionnaire survey to preparers and users of financial statements. It was found that both the preparers and users showed in general the positive views on the adoption of IAS into Japan.
Our research result will be published in 2004.
