With the Accounting Standard Board's 2011 deadline for implementation of IFRS standards rapidly approaching, your organization is probably already taking steps in the right direction. But once you've tackled the basics, there's still more you need to know.
Building off the success of INFONEX's previous IFRS conferences, the Advanced Issues in IFRS course has been specifically designed for those who have already attended one of our previous conferences or are otherwise already well versed in the introductory basics of IFRS Implementation.
This will be a unique workshop-based event with extended sessions that delve deeply into the most pressing IFRS issues. The sessions will move beyond the basics to address new standards in greater depth, examine more complex issues, and hear the pros and cons of various interpretations other companies are making of the standards.
Understand key standards that will have an impact on your organization in the near future, concerning income taxes, stock compensation, employee benefits, consolidations, and more. Understand best practices for fair-value accounting for PPE, investment property, and intangible assets. Gain greater insight into accounting for business combinations under IFRS 1 and IFRS 3 and get an update directly from the AcSB -- tailored to an advanced audience -- on the latest developments in international standards.
