The focus of this book was to discover findings on the resistance to change from rules-based to principles-based standards in the U.S. capital market. This lack of what accountants call “a singular accounting language”  results from the US using different accounting standards than other 138 countries.  In this book Dr. Lemus’s exposes the reluctance by the US to change from the US Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) currently being used domestically, to the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) used by most other countries.  The book explains why the IFRS should act as a singular accounting language, and how this will promote high transparency and a better economic position in the world financial market.
