The problem of the study is that the practical reality of the accounts of the tourist activities within the national accounts in Iraq doesn’t give a real picture of its contribution in the national economics for it is limited to calculating the accounts of the activities of hotels and restaurants without taking in consideration the other activities of the tourist sector.
