3ACCOUNTING THEORYChapter 1: IntroductionIn the last few years, there have been many researches and the researchers have debatedregarding the gap that is seen in accounting among the practises and learning. This recognizedgap among the accounting education and accounting practice has created an absence ofeffectiveness in the accounting process. There are numerous factors that have been addressed inthe past the current researches that are based on the reason for gap in accounting in the practicesand learning (Webb, & Chaffer 2016). The studies that have been undertaken earlier hasindicated that challenging relationships among the practices and learning within the profession ofaccounting can be one of the significant reasons for the generation of the gap. The difficulty thatis seen in the relationship among the accounting practitioners and the academics has created tobe what is known in the literature of accounting education as the gap among the practice andeducation. Howcroft, (2017) debates that the role of accounting education is to give the accountingstudents with the skills and knowledge that is required for the purpose of practicing accounting.On the other hand the practitioners debate that the instability that is seen in t he environment ofthe business needs further skills than the theoretical learning in order to take care of the changesthat are taking place rapidly. Hence, there exists a justification that the accounting educationneeds to provide the experienced accountants with the abilities to satisfy the organizationaldemands along with the swift transformations in the working environment (Apostolou et al.,2015). Hence, research on this topic is essential in order to gain effective level of understandingof the gap that is available in the accounting education and thereby take steps in order to mitigatethe issue.
