Özet:

Comparisons and valuations of firms at an international level have become an important subject along with globalization. However having different accounting systems of countries causes troubles in comparisons and analysis of firms. Therefore, many countries adopted International Accounting Standards (IAS) / International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) for the purpose of seeking a common language in accounting. In this study, the possible impacts of these standards which are partially used with the name of Turkish Accounting Standards (TAS) and Turkish Financial Reporting Standards (TFRS) in Turkey,on ratio analysis is examined. Although there are certain impacts of TAS/TFRS applications on financial statements, the impact of these on financial ratios can be different according to firms and activities in the period. Therefore, the important issue in ratio analysis is to compare ratios obtained from financial statements which are prepared with using the same accounting policies and standards. In this study, we aim to present the effects of TAS/TFRS applications on financial statements and accordingly ratio analysis. For this purpose, some accounts changed with TAS/TFRS and the impacts of this on ratio analysis are explained by examples.
