International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) have changed how companies account for long-lived tangible assets (PPE) on their financial statements.

Accountants are expected to decide how to first record the acquisition of long-lived assets, assess the value at which they are presented on future financial statements, and work out the allocation of the cost of these assets over future reporting periods.

In addition, IFRS allows periodic re-evaluation of long-lived assets under certain conditions, but with so many choices for assigning a value, just exactly how do you do it? This hands-on workshop will provide you with easy-to-follow guidelines that will ensure that you can comply with these new standards.

Learning Objectives
  • Define how to first record the acquisition of long-lived assets on the balance sheet
  • Identify the main concepts and rules for property, plant, and equipment revaluation methods under IFRS
  • Define the rules for the capitalization of borrowing costs
  • Recognize how to handle non-monetary (exchange) transactions
  • Define disclosure requirements for the financial statement presentation

Great overview of the differences between IFRS and GAAP. The key difference for me personally was: IFRS allows reversal of previously recognized impairment (unlike GAAP) if historical cost was used.

Great presentation. I'd like to see the presentation material expanded so I can keep for future reference. It's more like a outline for public speaking.

The material was informative. Examples were able to be followed along. The slide presentation could have been a little more visually pleasing.

The outline of the course was presenting it simple but the content was difficult. The course is related to the basic knowledge of accounting.
