Entre las novedades que esta segunda edición presenta se encuentran la incorporación de nueve capítulos adicionales que aumentan la cobertura de diversos temas de interés general, y la actualización y mejora de los 11 capítulos presentes en la primera edición, en los que se incorporan nuevas aplicaciones prácticas que complementan y amplían las ya existentes. Cada capítulo posee una sección de casos prácticos por medio de los cuales se estudia el desarrollo de los conceptos clave aplicados por la normativa contable. Todos ellos constan de un enunciado y su correspondiente solución; explican de forma clara y precisa la metodología por medio de la que, en la práctica profesional, todas las entidades deben presentar el efecto de las transacciones financieras y económicas que afectan a sus estados financieros, elaborados de acuerdo con las Normas Internacionales de Información Financiera (NIIF). Esta obra representa una guía útil y sencilla que facilitará a las personas y empresas la aplicación contable que, a nive de la normativa oficial, parece compleja y casi inalcanzable.

This edition of the World Bank has been revised and expanded by the Terminology Unit in the Languages Services Division of the World Bank in collaboration with the English, Spanish, and French Translation Sections. The Glossary is intended to assist the Bank's translators and interpreters, other Bank staff using French and Spanish in their work, and free-lance translator's and interpreters employed by the Bank. For this reason, the Glossary contains not only financial and economic terminology and terms relating to the Bank's procedures and practices, but also terms that frequently occur in Bank documents, and others for which the Bank has a preferred equivalent. Although many of these terms, relating to such fields as agriculture, education, energy, housing, law, technology, and transportation, could be found in other sources, they have been assembled here for ease of reference. A list of acronyms occurring frequently in Bank texts (the terms to which they refer being found in the Glossary) and a list of international, regional, and national organizations will be found at the end of the Glossary.
