Abstract
It has been widely claimed by academia and practitioners that companies can obtain tangible economic benefits from implementing ecodesign practices. Also, understanding how to express the effects of environmentally related investments is perceived to be limited. Nevertheless, environmental accounting is becoming an increasingly important issue for measuring, managing, and interpreting environmentally related investments. This paper explores how Asian electronic companies currently do environmental accounting and discusses the perceived difficulty of calculating the economic effects of environmental activities.
