Consolidation principles and practices for the UK government sector
Article Abstract:
Research assessing UK government proposals for departmental financial accounting and reporting has concentrated on the delineation of the consolidated reporting entity. Attention is given to the extent and types of consolidation which are appropriate for accruals-based government financial accounting and reporting. It is clear that pursuit of the idea of control may foster conflict with other principles. If analyzed in terms of fiscal dependence, control could lead to a significantly expanded area of consolidation in UK government. There are problems regarding the appropriate methods of accounting for transactions across the Departmental Resource Account boundary, particularly when this has been set in a restrictive way.
