The accountant's day in Russia: history of holiday greetings and gifts

Almost every job has its own special day of the year. It's a great tradition touched and specialists in the field of accounting. Holidays in their honor is not only at international but also at national and regional level. Read more about the Day of the accountant we will cover in the article.

International festival

International Accounting Day (from English - "international accounting day"), celebrated every year on 10 November. Celebrate it all accountants in the world.

Why this date was chosen for the International day of an accountant? It is known that distant November 10, 1494 by the Italian mathematician L. Pacioli (he is considered the founder of modern principles of accountancy) published the book "the Sum of geometry, arithmetic, proportions and relations".

Edition the author has attempted to structure all of modern knowledge about mathematics. One of the chapters in the book, Pacioli was "On the accounts and other records". There he described his bookkeeping in Venice. Pacioli was a large part of the accounting cycle in the form, characteristic of modern times, information about the method of double-entry bookkeeping, work on commercial types.

Luca Pacioli is still called the "father of accounting", even though he has developed some principles of basic bookkeeping, but only described his day, which were used by the merchants of Venice of the Renaissance. However, structured information, terminology and techniques up to date, four subsequent centuries.

I Must say that in our country, Constitution day is not particularly celebrated. After all, November 10, by coincidence, celebrated another professional date. This Day employees of the Russian internal Affairs authorities.

Day in Russia

In our country this holiday is not public. Also this is not an official day off - not for accountants or other workers.

But still the date is annually celebrated by workers in this sector. A number of accountant's Day in Russia? It is November 21. On this day, B. N. Yeltsin, who served as the President of the Russian Federation, in 1996 signed the Federal law No. 129 "On accounting". I must say that today this legislation has already lost its power. He was replaced by law No. 402, adopted in 2011.

Note that sometimes the accountant's Day is celebrated and 25, November 28. Why such a discrepancy? On these dates, the Federal law "On accounting" was officially published in the media.

And with the numbers here again a coincidence. Since 2000, 21 of November in Russia celebrated the professional holiday of the other. This is the Day of Russian tax employee - a holiday of all employees of the vast apparatus of the FTS of the Russian Federation.

Day of the chief accountant

Yes, don't be surprised - neither of them exist! But not yet officially. The idea was proposed by one of the famous Russian accounting publications. The relevance of accountants you can now celebrate every year on April 21.

The date was not chosen randomly, and according to the specifics of the profession. Late April is the time when rent accounting statements. Specialists appears able to "breathe freely" before the may holidays. And at the same time to motivate myself to feats of labor special professional holiday.

The Second reason for choosing this date - namely, April 21, was first released to the journal initiator. Its editors hope that in the future this number will be the official Day of the chief accountant.

• In 2002, IPB of Russia ("Institut professional accountants and auditors of the Russian Federation") as its corporate holiday set the date for November 28. As you may remember, is the day of the official publication of the Federal law №129. This decision was embodied in the minutes of the meeting of the Presidential Council of the Russian Federation IPB No. 05/-02.
• Not so long ago, in 2014, the Russian Ministry of Finance launched the process for determining the official date of the accountant. However, to any particular outcome of the discussions did not come until now.
