SMEs are increasingly playing their important role in the social economy due to the increase in the number and level of contributions to the state budget, meeting the social security needs in the world [10, p. 230]. The International Accounting Standards Board has developed and issued accounting standards applicable to SMEs (IFRS for SMEs) in order to guide the way information is presented and provided in accordance with the requirements of the guidelines [11, p. 10]. Nevertheless, in Vietnam the accounting system for SMEs is not very different and clear. Thus, the question is whether we should or should not create an accounting system for SMEs to obtain separate information serving the leadership? This article analyzes and indicates the directions for completion Table 2. The accounting standards
in order to meet the requirements of management and economic management. 2. LEGAL SYSTEM ON ACCOUNTING RULES FOR SMEs
The accounting law in 2015 provided the most common problems in accounting and reporting, but has not yet given any terminology or contains provisions for SMEs [12, p. 330]. The system of accounting standards in Vietnam consists of 26 accounting standards (VAS) for Vietnamese businesses in general, which are divided into 03 groups with the rules: 07 VAS applied to all SMEs, 07 VAS does not fully apply to SMEs and 12 VAS, partially applying to SMEs, as details in Table 2, Table 3 and Table 4 below.

The accounting regime of SMEs was published separately in Decisions No. 48/2006 / QB-BTC dated 04.09.2006 and No 15/2006/ QB -BTC dated 23/10/2006 by the Minister of Finance on the extension of the accounting regime for SMEs; it is amended and supplemented by Circular No. 138/2011 / TT-BTC dated 04.10.2011, which refers to the modification and addition of the accounting regime for SMEs.
From the presentation of the rules for the application of VAS for SMEs in Vietnam, we can see:
- No separate VAS standards for SMEs, simply have common VAS standards, and then define, in particular, for SMEs, in accordance with the accounting regime of SMEs;
- Provisions concerning SMEs are also much simpler than the provisions of VAS, due to the nature of SMEs in Vietnam;
- Specific provisions for the creation and presentation of financial statements.
The financial reporting framework for small and medium-sized enterprises includes:
- Mandatory reporting: Balance sheet, Form B
01 - SMEs; Statement of financial results, Form B
02 - SMEs; Notes to the financial statements, Form B 09 - SMEs
- Financial reports sent to the tax organization must prepare and submit the following additional statement: Worksheet - balance sheet account, Form F 01 - SME
- The report is not mandatory, but it is recommended to do: Cash Flow Statement, Form B 03 - SMEs.
In addition, to service requests for management, direct and manage business transactions, enterprises can create other detailed financial statements:
- Financial statements regulated for cooperatives. Worksheet - balance sheet account, form B 01 - SME / Co-op; Statement of financial results, Form B 02 - SMEs; Notes to financial statements, Form B 09 - SME / Co-op.
The content, methodology and presentation of indicators in each report specified in this mode are applied uniformly to SMEs that relate to entities that apply this financial reporting system. In addition, the indicators, items have been amended and supplemented with the circular No. 138/2011 / TT-BTC dated 04/10/2011 04.10.2011 on the direction of changing and supplementing the accounting regime for SMEs [14, p. 27]. 3. RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONS
The enactment of a separate accounting system for SMEs according to the author is not required, although there has been international accounting standards system for SME, because some fundamental reason is that according to Decree No. 56/2009/ND - CP of the Government dated 30/06/2009, Vietnam composes of 03 types of micro enterprises, small enterprises and medium enterprises, in addition to other types of businesses such as manufacturing enterprises , commercial

enterprises, commercial banks, stocks ... If to suit each type of enterprise which issued its own accounting system would lead to overlapping and duplication, waste and difficult to apply; characteristics of different types of enterprises in Vietnam and the classification of different types of businesses also differ in international comparison [15, p. 77]. So, the next stage must proceed from the principles of arising operations and require presentation of financial statements, require providing information to build an appropriate accounting system, based on general principles to ensure the needed information for serving the enterprise management [13, p. 18].
Solution to build general accounting system adapted to various types of enterprise available in Vietnam today can perform the following trends:
The first, clearly defined criteria for Enterprise: from the identification of clear criteria for enterprises in general, and SMEs in particular, it will give out the scale of specific arising operations as well as requirements about formulation, presentation and providing information to stakeholders on the financial reporting system. The Enterprise's criteria of identifying in Vietnam currently prescribed by the Government, is primarily based on the financial aspects that have not paid much attention to the aspect of accounting. So, in the analysis, we found the difference relatively and clearly defined between the system IFRS for SMEs with the VAS for SMEs about the arising and the financial statements.
Therefore, need to carefully consider and amend the criteria of determining the business to be appropriate with the accounting aspects and financial aspects
The Second, tending to uniformity of the accounting rules for different types of businesses: which means, to build a roadmap steadily towards enterprise accounting that will be common rules for all types of businesses (large enterprises, SMEs, commercial banks, securities companies). This seems to contradict the current provisions of IAS/IFRS for SMEs, but consistent with the characteristics and the economic development of Vietnam. To do this, the accounting rules in general
should only prescribe to be "moral principles" in nature, should not prescribe too much in detail and specify the content; always create openness, creativity for accounting staff, as well as requirements for international integration. Specifically identify building principles and account system rules, it means, should not prescribe too specific the regulations, but should develop principled nature, that is:
- Group Asset Account is kind 1XX (short -term) and 2xx (kind of long - term);
- Group Short - term Liabilities Account is 31X, and 32X is long - term liabilities account;
- Group owner's equity Account is 41X, Capital of funds is 42X;
- Group Income Account IS 5XX (revenue from core business) and 7XX (other income outside the primary business activities, including income tax);
- Group Cost Account is 6XX (cost of main business activity) and 8XX (costs outside the main business activities, including income tax expense)
Deficit "XX" in the group of accounts is defined by each unit proactively established to ensure monitoring and the providing information that is truthful and reasonable
The third determine the building principles and regulate the basic transaction content: the basic arising for different types of businesses based on the principle of recognition of transactions, in a mobilization process in the business, about the Account of Assets, Liabilities, Capital, Income and Expenses and determining the results.
The fourth, identify and build the Financial statement system: coming from the problem of reflecting and monitoring of the account system, the FS will be designed just for texture pattern, consisting of the basic parts ensuring the presentation, and, providing information are as requested without "stereotyped, rigid" in nature, with fixed targets as available today.
Financial statements should be clearly defined as Separate financial statements/consolidated financial statements/general financial statements, and should be only provisions with general model.
