Public accounting systems differ among countries so the reform towards harmonization is needed especially for EU Member Countries. The transition from cash-based to accrual-based accounting is necessary in order to provide the wide scope of relevant information to the internal and external users. The objectives of the paper are: to examine the level of conversance with IPSAS (International Public Sector Accounting Standards) among public sector accountants in Croatia, to outline the potential benefits and improvements of accrual principle application, and to determine the implication of increased effectiveness and efficiency of the administrations' actions on greater transparency of financial statements. Empirical research is based on survey addressed to the accountants employed by local government. The findings suggest that accrual principle application in Croatian public sector accounting would lead to the increase of effectiveness and efficiency of the public sector and eventually to the higher level of transparency.

Globally, there are many safety concerns emanating from the consumption of food, and are categorized as physical, biological and chemical hazards. This volume explores a number of safety issues pertaining to foods consumed across the globe today. It represents a useful resource for researchers, food handlers and legislative bodies as it presents key findings in the area of food safety, and details the findings of a number of scientific research studies conducted through surveys, laboratory analysis and environmental assessments. The findings indicate the presence of eminent food safety threats along the food chain, ranging from pathogens, pesticide, and antibiotic residues, to heavy metals, food additives, aflatoxins, and allergens, among others. Food handling practices along the food chain and the importance of adhering to good agricultural and manufacturing practices are shown to play a crucial role in ensuring safe foods.
