Hiroshi Yoshida – is a pioneer of the governmental accounting.

His point is that it is incorrect for a government to treat public goods as its own assets. Public goods are taxpayers’ properties. Public goods need to be shifted to the taxpayers’ balance sheet from the government balance sheet. After this shift, the difference between whatever remains on government asset and liability is the balance which needs to be fulfilled by “future tax” to be imposed on taxpayers.

He emphasizes the importance of creating “Performance report” for the government. Performance report shows how well or how bad the government managed taxpayers money to meet social demand. It is the government’s responsibility to produce satisfactory results for taxpayers.

Hiroshi has won the academic award by his book “Theory of Public Sector Accounting” from JICPA (Japanese Institute of Certified Accountants).
