In their analysis, the authors conducted a qualitative study that focusses on the role and importance of the metaverse and its scope in the accounting profession. The results of the research show that although the digital transition is not at the beginning of the road, we must adapt to the new changes, so a professional accountant must also have significant knowledge in the field of IT.
