Accounting risks in modern enterprises

Since the end of the last century the issues related to risk assessment have become topical in our country. Considering the risk assessment it should be kept in mind that a risk has a probabilistic nature. With the increase of the planned values of an indicator dramatically increases the likelihood of losses. This factor should be taken into consideration when calculating risks. The essence of risks lies in the fact that due to the impact of environmental uncertainty the real value of a controlled parameter will always be different from the planned value. Under the risk we understand an estimated at the decision point T0 possible deviation of the actual value from the planned one in the future T0 + Δ, corresponding to the time of implementation of the control solution. For consideration of risk issues in the practical field it’s important to use the transparency requirements. As a result, investors may decide by themselves on their future investments with due regard to risks. The accounting risks are classified as risks associated with financial accounting and risks associated with management accounting. The second group of risks is understudied and requires further investigations.
