14 Implementation of Accrual Basis Similar to many governments, the Chinese government also takes a prudent attitude towards the degree of accrual accounting Sensitive issues include the treatment of sovereign investment funds, pension liabilities and contingent liabilities Accrual is both a policy and technical issue 14
15 Theoretical Issues in Accrual Accounting There are many unresolved issues due to the nature of government, e.g. Effects of non-reciprocity on revenue recognition Timing of recognition of commitment as liability Appropriateness of fair value in valuing government assets Eagerly awaiting IPSAS conceptual framework to provide guidance to practice 15
16 Defining the Scope of Government China has a large number of institutional units of complex characteristics Their mixed features of business, nonprofit and public organizations make their classification as government and public sector entities difficulty 16
17 Information System Support Government accounting reform affects financial management information system China already has a relatively robust government financial information system However, there remains the challenge of balancing the needs for budget execution and accrual-based financial reporting 17
18 Training of Government Accountants China has a large number of accounting personnel in public sector How to provide them with professional management and continuing education is a very heavy task 18
