Abstract: | This study attempts to determine the level of accounting harmonisation in the European Community by examining selected measurement practices from the 1992/93 annual reports of companies from Belgium , Denmark, France, Germany, Ireland, the netherlands, Portugal and the UK. Harmonisation is tested using the chi-square statistic and measured using the I index. The chi-square statistic tests for the equality of proportions of accounting measurement methods across countries. The I index measures the extent of concentration around a particular accounting measurement method. |
