Some Considerations Regarding the Evolution of Public Accounting in Romania

The importance of the public sector in the economy of a country has contrasted over time with the relatively low attention paid to its accounting aspects. Thus, its accounting regularization has lasted for quite some time at an archaic level, with the exception of the part that was applicable to public enterprises, which, as it is known, was conducted after the accounting for the private sector entities. Also, if we relate to the accounting literature, the study of accounting in the university education, including the activities carried out by the professional bodies, we find that their efforts, with few exceptions, have turned to the accounting of enterprises.
