Chapter 1 provides a historical background for international accounting and MNEs. This
chapter identifies the rationale for an international accounting course. Instructors may want to
review articles (referenced in the notes at the end of the chapter) written about the rationale for
and content of an international accounting course. For a more detailed discussion of
international accounting issues and how they might be discussed in the curriculum, see Lee H.
Radebaugh, "Internationalization of the Accounting Curriculum," in Internationalizing
Management Education by Alan M. Rugman and W.T. Stanbury, Editors (Vancouver, B.C.:
Centre for International Business Studies, University of British Columbia, 1992).
LECTURE NOTES
I. Introduction
II. The International Development of the Accounting Discipline
A. Early Italian Influence
1. Record keeping can be traced to 3600BC
2. Italy became the center of trade routes
3. Genoa in 1340AD -- double entry, business entity, money
4. Florentine -- development of large corporations and compagnie (partnerships)
5. Venice -- responsible for the spread of double entry accounting
B. Luca Pacioli
1. Franciscan monk educated in mathematics
2. Taught at several universities, tutored three sons of a Venetian merchant
3. In 1494, published Summa de arithmetica geometria proportioni et
proportionalita
4. Introduced three books of record -- the memorandum book, the journal and the
ledger -- that required a debit and credit for the transaction to remain in
equilibrium
C. Subsequent Developments
1. Decline of Italy as a commercial power, shifting influence to Atlantic
2. Rise of the nation-state in the 1500s -- public finance
3. French revolution in late 1700s brought Italy under the influence of the French
and Austrians, resulting in some changes in accounting
4. Scale of enterprises increased, followed by rapid industrialization, and finally
3
multinationalization
III. National Differences in Accounting Systems
A. Accounting systems evolve from and reflect the environments they serve
B. Legal, political, economic, cultural, educational environments create differences
IV. The Evolution and Significance of International Business
A. The Pre-Industrial Period
B. The Industrialization Period
C. The Post-World War II Period
D. The Multinational Era
1. Reasons for International Involvement
2. Forms of International Involvement
3. Multinational Enterprises
4. Large MNEs
5. The Decision to Become Global
i. Factors include environment constraints Fig. 1.1
and firm-specific advantages
V. Environmental Influences on Accounting
A. Environmental model -- see Figure 1.2
1. A variety of forces influence accounting standards and practices
2. Culture is a key source of influence
3. The influence of factors varies both between and among countries over time
4. Similarities as well as differences; hard to classify countries -- Anglo-Saxon
and French Continental European models
5. New patterns of accounting are being influenced by international organizations
and the changing nature of business
VI. Major Developmental Factors
A. Recognition of corporations as legal entities with public ownership of shares and the
legal right of limited liability
1. Transparency -- information disclosure is a way to help protect creditors in an
environment of limited liability
2. Disclosure needed to help investors attracted by limited liability but who need
information to assess value of investment decision
B. Growth of professional management -- need information to ensure owners that
professional managers are good agents
1. The emergence of securities markets -- see Exhibit 1.1
a. Provide the exchangeability of shares and a source of new equity capital
b. Facilitate developing countries to transition to a market economy
c. Makes possible the privatization of state-owned companies
d. Provide information to financial analysts for potential investors
e. Tends to deepen and broaden disclosure
f. Gives a strong correlation between well-developed capital markets and
the extent of financial disclosure in corporate reports
2. Shareholders as outsiders
4
a. Have less information and less control than some other groups, such as
bankers and the government
b. Find differences among countries such as the U.S. and U.K., versus
Germany, Japan, and France
3. Share prices exert some influence on disclosure, but only in countries where
shareholders are an important source of capital
4. Governments have been influential in the development of accounting standards
in many countries due to government involvement in the economy
C. Trends in Securities Markets
1. The exchanges have tried to get firms to list because of cost-volume advantages
2. Exchanges in Europe have been consolidating for competitive reasons
3. Markets in emerging countries are growing consistent with globalization and
capital access improvements
D. A Wider Audience
1. Employees, trade unions, consumers, government agencies, the general public
demand information reflective of accountability and externalities issues
2. Companies hesitate supplying much unique information for stakeholders of 1)
since they might wish to pursue nontraditional goals
3. Supply of information could influence corporate behavior and provide criticism
of corporate performance
4. Demands of wider audience may not be defined or may be difficult to measure
5. Demand depends on needs of the wider audience and their relative power --
like in codetermination
6. The right of access to information implies the political values of a liberal
democracy
7. The supply/demand of information is an evolutionary process reflective of
economic and social imperatives
E. An Evolutionary Process
1. While corporate disclosure has its roots in the demands of financial providers,
the growth in the securities markets themselves is a major driver of reporting
VII. Accountability and Multinational Enterprises
A. Information disclosure strengthens the bargaining power of developing countries for
FDI vis-a-vis MNEs.
B. MNEs operating in different countries have the opportunity to take advantage of
different tax laws, currency differences, etc. With size and business complexity, they can
coordinate pricing, sourcing, and location decisions to increase the net return to the
corporation as a whole
C. The special impact of MNE behavior has given rise to pressure for more
accountability and information disclosure
VIII. Accounting Aspects of International Business
A. Establishing an internal international accounting capability
1. Different ways of operating abroad correspond to accounting problems
IX. The Field of International Accounting

EXTRACT FROM PREFATORY NOTE BY MR. ROBERT
BROWNING.
'In a recent "Memoir of Elizabeth Barrett Browning," by John H.
Ingram, it is observed that "such essays on her personal history as
have appeared, either in England or elsewhere, are replete with
mistakes or misstatements." For these he proposes to substitute "a
correct if short memoir:" but, kindly and appreciative as may be Mr.
Ingram's performance, there occur not a few passages in it equally
"mistaken and misstated."'
