RESUMEN: Los escándalos financieros que han salido a la luz en los últimos años, relacionados con grandes corporaciones, tanto financieras como no financieras, han puesto en tela de juicio las normas contables relativas a diversas materias, entre ellas, la de la valoración actualizada de los activos, y en particular el tema del deterioro de valor de los activos. Esta situación se ha creado por la manipulación de la información contable que, relacionada con el deterioro de valor de los activos (ya fueran corrientes o no corrientes, financieros o no financieros), ha rodeado tales escándalos. Así, este trabajo tiene por objetivo obtener un diagnóstico de la normativa contable vigente -a nivel nacional (PGC español y resoluciones del ICAC) e internacional (NIIF y US GAAP)- en materia de deterioros de valor de los activos, mediante la técnica del análisis comparado. Dicho análisis comparado nos llevará a interpretar las diferencias y semejanzas observadas en la norma, con el propósito de establecer unas conclusiones relacionadas con la identificación de posibilidades de maquillaje contable que ofrece la actual normativa contable sobre deterioros de valor del activo.
