Abstract

Implementation of Government Regulation Number 71 of 2010 concerning Government Accounting Standards brought changes in the presentation of government financial statements, which previously used cash-based accounting standards, to accrual-based accounting standards. Cash-based recognizes the recording of transactions and recognition occurs only when cash is out and cash in and does not record liabilities and assets at all. Accrual-based recording is believed to be able to produce financial reports that are more accurate and more reliable, comprehensive and relevant for decision making. In order to support the implementation of a good and competent accrual basis, supporting factors are needed such as human resources, organizational commitment, utilization of information and communication technology.
