Sažetak

With every new day business is becoming a more global game, causing increased flows of goods and capital. This trend also emphasizes the need for business information, which is significantly based on financial accounting. In such business environment financial accounting should be more harmonized, providing more comparable accounting information to users. Literature suggests that accounting for goodwill is an area with very divergent practices. Through this paper, this assumption is theoretically analyzed comparing the previous and current practices for some countries with the available data. Furthermore, on the basis of some case studies from the US and UK, possible differences in financial statements are viewed through authentic data. The author of the paper has conducted empirical research among some large Croatian corporations and discovered that accounting for goodwill is in accordance with IAS 22. On the basis of the available data, possible future developments in this area of accounting are also presented.
