Wiley International Financial Reporting Trends provides copious examples of footnote disclosures and financial statement formats, carefully culled from the world's leading international companies ("Global 500") that are already compliant with IFRS and report under IFRS standards promulgated by the International Accounting Standards Board, the IASB. Arranged topically, this book is a quick source of reference to find answers to issues of interest to financial statement preparers. It provides hundreds of illustrations taken from financial statements prepared under IFRS by global conglomerates thereby helping preparers and users of financial statements to expeditiously obtain examples of footnote disclosures and financial statements presented under these Standards which are popularly referred to as "principles-based" standards (as opposed to "rules-based" standards). Additionally, Wiley International Financial Reporting Trends contains comparisons of IFRS to US GAAP, Indian GAAP, and Chinese GAAP, making it a truly global reference resource.

The increasing pace of global conformance towards the adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) highlights the need for accounting students as well as accounting practitioners to be conversant with IFRS. Teaching IFRS offers expert descriptions of, and insights into, the IFRS convergence process from a teaching and learning perspective. Hence this book is both timely and likely to have considerable impact in providing guidance for those who teach financial reporting around the world. The contents of the book come from authoritative sources and offer something distinctive to complement the existing textbooks which typically focus on the technical aspects of IFRS and their adoption. Drawing upon the experiences of those who have sought to introduce IFRS-related classroom innovations and the associated student outcomes achieved therefrom, the book offers suggestions about how to design and deliver courses dealing with IFRS and catalogues extensive listings of IFRS-related teaching resources to support those courses. This book was originally published as a special issue of Accounting Education: An international journal.

Im Zuge der deutlichen Steigerung der Lebenserwartung der deutschen Bevölkerung in den vergangenen Jahrzehnten hat sich die Relevanz der Altersversorgung stetig erhöht. Es ist demnach nicht verwunderlich, dass Zusagen der betrieblichen Altersversorgung in Deutschland die meist geforderten Lohn- bzw. Gehaltsnebenleistungen darstellen und die mit der Pensionszusage verbundenen Rückstellungen das Bild von zahlreichen Geschäftsberichten großer deutscher Konzerne prägen. Innerhalb der Rechnungslegung nach IFRS ist die Bilanzierung der betrieblichen Altersvorsorge in dem International Accounting Standard (IAS) 19 geregelt, welcher seit seiner Veröffentlichung mehrfach überarbeitet wurde. S...
