| Summary: | Starting two decades ago, an increasing number of governments has gradually shifted from cash
accounting toward accrual accounting. The transformation process sometimes takes the form of
modified cash basis as a transition before full accrual adoption. Indonesia, as an important partner of
the OECD and member of the G20 organization, also participated in the transformation by
implementing mandatory accrual basis accounting in all government levels starting from 2015. This
dissertation tries to shed light on the factors that affect the compliance level in the central and local
government in Indonesia using empirical investigation to gain an insight into what a government,
government consultant agency, and auditor of the government financial report thinks about the concept
of compliance.
Keywords: accrual accounting, accountability, public sector management, emerging countries
