摘要：Found transfer to the emerging markets by investments,is requiring knowledge about the world’s two main accounting systems: Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). IFRS is used in the European Union and many other countries although GAAP system is used principally in the United States. Many countries have their own accounting systems,although most conform to one main system or the other as they work to keep their markets modern. All accounting systems follow double-entry practices that categorize transactions as revenue or expenses,assets or liabilities. In the paper we intend to underline differences between the two primary accounting systems that may affect the results. We appreciate that the understanding about both GAAP and IFRS,it can make a better evaluation of numbers from companies that follow neither system.
