The year 2000 problem

Article Abstract:

Tax accounting problems may arise for tax consultants and their clients if the Year 2000 computer problem is not managed. Legacy systems used to calculate values according to time, such as with bonds, are obvious problems in the accounting field. Technological failures, which could range from minor to severe, may have legal implications. Disclosure is an advisable business practice which is legally required for certain types of businesses. Several World Wide Web sites exist which contain relevant information regarding the general problem, compliance, and disclosure.
