Özet
The aim of this study is to evaluate the advantages by examining the effect decentralized blockchain applications on accounting information systems. The blockchain as an Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) offers new possibilities to recording and backing up sensitive and confidential data of accounting information systems. The blockchain is designed in a structure that allows transactions to be monitored and controlled in real-time. By this way, the question of how to operate the real-time accounting system, as a new paradigm with blockchain technology, and how to apply in the field of taxation have emerged simultaneously. To achieve the aim of the study, a descriptive approach was adopted to explore the basics of blockchain technology and the most important accounting practices (such as accounting entries, taxation). For that purpose, the relevant literature on blockchain accounting system were reviewed and the blockchain reports of the big four companies were examined. As a result, the potential advantages of real-time blockchain accounting system were categorized according to four focus points: transparency and trust; disintermediation;smart contracts; continuous audit.
