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. Wiley 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. Wiley IAS 2003 is the only reference necessary for keeping up-to-date with the latest IAS regulations.
