eng Environmental Management Accounting in the Framework of EMAS II in the Czech Republic Environmental management systems are broadly implemented in enterprises in the Czech Republic. The Eco-Management and Audit Scheme (EMAS) consists in voluntary activity of the enterprise, intended to control the environmental impact of enterprise activities and to provide the relevant information to the general public and other interested parties. The Czech Republic has included requirements on implementation of environmental management accounting in the framework of EMAS. If an enterprise is attempting to implement EMAS, then an essential part of the system consists in the obligation to establish and maintain procedures for tracing of environmental costs in order to implement environmental management accounting (EMA). The paper deals with requirements on EMA implementation in the framework of EMAS as well as reporting of environmental costs and revenues. The paper includes some of the results acquired from a qualitative study of the state of preparedness of enterprises, registered in the EMAS, to implement EMA. environmental management, EMAS, environmental accounting, management accounting
