Summary
The subject of the study is an interesting topic for theoretical research and it is up-to-date and useful in practice. The aim of the study is to examine accounting in theoretical and practical aspects as an information system. To achieve this aim the following tasks have to be performed: to examine the accounting practice of Bulgarian enterprises and its information opportunities; to examine the degree of application of the electronic signature, electronic banking, electronic invoicing and other electronic applications. The thesis statements are: the fast development of scientific and technical progress requires a change in the accounting information system; the need for comprehensive and timely accounting information requires the extensive use of electronic applications for transmitting and storing information. The results of the study we conducted enable us to outline several major conclusions: 1) accounting is a major information system in an enterprise, accounting information is a means for its effective management; 2) accounting regulations are in a continuous dynamics; 3) the aim of financial reporting is that the information in the financial statements has the property of ‘usefulness’; 4) the use of qualified electronic signature, electronic banking, electronic documents and other electronic applications is increasing, including in connection with the annual closing of accounts and the acquisition of fixed assets from the Operational Programme of the European Union.
