IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards) is becoming a reality in the U.S. Foreign publicly held companies, including those with U.S. subsidiaries, can already file financial statements with the SEC using IFRS and certain U.S. companies may file their financial statements under IFRS starting for years ending December 15, 2009. Also, the SEC has recently issued a release with a proposed roadmap for the potential mandatory adoption of IFRS in the United States. We recognize your need for proper and timely training and are ready to assist you in providing this crucial education.
This course prepares accountants for these upcoming changes and will help you solidify your knowledge of the similarities and differences between IFRS and U.S. GAAP. Even if your knowledge is limited, a brief recap of the important points is provided at the beginning of the course to help get you up to speed. Also, you will learn to apply specific IFRS standards to the impacted financial statement line items. Gain a greater understanding of what you need to know as the acceptance of International standards continues to grow.
