Book Description
A one-stop resource for understanding current IAS guidelines
As the International Accounting Standards Committee (IASC) makes
progress towards widespread acceptance and use of its standards in
practices, the need to understand the new standards increases.
International Accounting Standards 2003 provides the tools for
understanding those standards and offers expertise on how to use and
implement them. This essential guide covers the new standard on
accounting for agricultural operations, IAS 41, as well as new
guidelines produced by the IASC's Standing Interpretations
Committee. Reflecting the IASC's commitment to developing simplified
accounting standards to be applied to emerging markets, new
financial reporting techniques in this arena are also covered in
detail. IAS 2003 is the only reference necessary for keeping up-to-
date with the latest IAS regulations.
Barry J. Epstein, PhD, CPA (Chicago, IL), is a partner at Gleeson,
Sklar, Sawyers & Cumpata LLP in Chicago, Illinois.
Abbas Ali Mirza, ACA, AICWA, CPA (Sharjah, UAE), is a partner at
Deloitte & Touche in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
All in all IAS 2003 is a must buy for all dealing with IASs. Due to
lack of current textbook in international accounting this book
becomes more that a reference for a professional. It will also be
useful source for accounting students and teachers wishing to better
understand the IASs.
