Book Description
Wiley International Financial Reporting Trends provides copious examples of footnote disclosures and financial statement formats, carefully culled from the world′s leading international companies (“Global 500”) that are already compliant with IFRS and report under IFRS standards promulgated by the International Accounting Standards Board, the IASB. Arranged topically, this book is a quick source of reference to find answers to issues of interest to financial statement preparers. It provides hundreds of illustrations taken from financial statements prepared under IFRS by global conglomerates thereby helping preparers and users of financial statements to expeditiously obtain examples of footnote disclosures and financial statements presented under these Standards which are popularly referred to as “principles–based” standards (as opposed to “rules–based” standards).
