Different accounting systems recognize different sets of assets and liabilities and are thus vulnerable to different sets of devices. Some devices can be revealed by moving progressively from cash accounting to modified accrual accounting to full accrual accounting. Revealing all would require the publication of extended fiscal accounts in which all future cash flows give rise to assets or liabilities. 410 0$aIMF Working Papers 606 $aAccounting$xStandards 606 $aFinance, Public 606 $aBudget deficits 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aAccounting$xStandards. 615 0$aFinance, Public. 615 0$aBudget deficits. 700 $aIrwin$b Timothy$0869727 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910462256503321 996 $aSome algebra of fiscal transparency$92275536 997 $aUNINA
