IFRS FOR SMES (1 DAY)
Small and Medium Enterprises now have a choice between full IFRS and IFRS for SMEs. IFRS for SMEs is a stand-alone document which is a simplified version of IFRS, meant to reduce some of the complexity and burden of accounting for private companies. There is no limitation on the size of the company. For the most part, the users of financial statements have the ability to ask for more information than is included in the financial statements should they require it. Therefore, there exists the opportunity for small and medium enterprises to reduce their accounting complexity. Different jurisdictions around the world have decided whether or not they are recognizing IFRS for SMEs. Canada and the US have not yet agreed to adopt IFRS for SMEs.
This course provides an overview of the key differences between IFRS for SMEs and full IFRS. It highlights some key differences with IFRS and presents the reconciling items where a parent and subsidiary decide to use different accounting platforms.
