Summary

Introduction

Economic crime in the world, and in Slovakia, has taken on enormous proportions over the years. As not all of the money came from the owners, business owners were forced to turn to the accountants again and suggest that they monitor indicators that could indicate various favourable as well as unfavourable business directions. These indicators were able to reveal various ailments that arose from the company's management and show the owners where their weaknesses are and where, on the contrary, they significantly outperform others, as without benchmarking there would be no competition in the world and consumers would not receive high quality products, low prices at optimal costs. Wokukwu argues that transparency in the financial reporting system is of utmost importance because individuals, potential investors, creditors and regulators have to make investment decisions based on corporate financial reports [1]
