2、r, the physical assets like plant, machinery, material etc. are of utmost importance. In contrast, in the latter, knowledge and attitudes of the employees assume greater significance. For instance, in the case of an IT firm, the value of its physical assets is negligible when compared with the value

Similarly, in hospitals, academic institutions, consulting firms etc., the total worth of the organization depends mainly on the skills of its employees and the services they render. Hence, the success of these organizations is contingent on the quality

In knowledge driven economies therefore, it is imperative that the humans be recognized as an integral part of the total worth of an organization. However, in order to estimate an

45、工的知识和态度发挥着更重要的作用。例如,在IT行业中，实物资产的价值与智力价值和人们的技能相比是微不足道的。同样，在医院、学术机构、咨询等公司，组织的总价值主要取决于员工的技能一级他们所提供的服务。因此，这些组织的成功取决于人力资源的质量，知识、技能、能力这些因素激励并且理解企业的组织文化。在知识经济驱动的今天，人力资源被公认为是总价值中的一个重要组成部分。然而，为了评估和设计人力资本价值,需要不断的采取某种方法来定量诸如知识的价值、动机、技巧等人为贡献因素,以及组织过程，如招聘、选拔、培训等的价值，从而用服务于人力资源管理的各个模块。企事业单位的成功完全取决于人才资源的质量。必须强调的是对人

46、力的投资在任何公司中都是最重要的投入。根据投资的理论知识，可以通过提高员工的技能和能力从而来提高组织的人力资源水平。在这种情形下，值得我们去审查印度人力资源会计实务有关的各个方面。关于近代人力资源会计的起源人们正在努力去探索，人力资源会计是一种会计确认和计量系统，在过去十年间大量的相关文献已被发表，它初步被定义为是关于为计量人力资源会计而设置的各种程序。与此同时，相关的理论概念和潜在的会计计量随着大量文献的发展已经在学术界引起了相当大的关注。传统的人力资源会计已经不再被认定是物质或是财务资产。作为洲际人力资源会计发展战略专家的斯里尼瓦森博士是印度的人力资源会计的领军人物，他说“我们所需要的是测

47、量员工的各种能力，公司各种层次的生产价值来自于他们的知识和能力，人力资源会计基本上是一个信息系统，可以在任何时候告诉管理者人力资源发生的变化，人力资源会计还包括对员工的投资和对他们的替代成本,而且也包括了他们在组织中的经济价值。”。由于当前会计系统不能提供员工的能力和知识的实际价值，这个间接影响公司的未来的投资成本，所以组织的人力资源成本随着招聘的增加而增加。斯里尼瓦森博士是一个商业与管理方面的研究生，他在1997年获得了马德拉斯理工大学传播系博士学位。他现在还在致力于和财务管理研究方法论有关的课程，目前任职于BGWC大学的研究所。在他进入BGWC大学之前，他在SNR大学教书大概八年时间，有2
