Abstract

The process of introducing new technologies into various industries keeps building rapidly in recent years and the tendency has already spread to the accounting profession as well. The existing technologies bring the accounting profession significant changes as well as potential risks and unknown challenges at the same time. By using secondary research and a data analysis, this study focuses on the three new technologies, blockchain, cloud computing, and big data, to discuss both the strengths and weaknesses they take to the accounting industry. This paper also looks at the effect on students and workers in the accounting area after the application of new technologies and whether there are any possibilities that these new technologies can replace human. To conclude, the opportunities brought by the introduction of new technologies in the development of the accounting profession outweigh the related risks. All employees in the accounting industry should take a positive attitude to face this technology revolution.
