A Look at IFRS
Key Points
Similarities
Transaction analysis is the same under IFRS and GAAP.
Both the IASB and the FASB go beyond the basic definitions
provided in the textbook for the key elements of financial
statements, that is assets, liabilities, equity, revenue, and
expenses. The implications of the expanded definitions are
discussed in more advanced accounting courses.
2-51 LO 5
A Look at IFRS
Key Points
Similarities
As shown in the textbook, dollar signs are typically used only in
the trial balance and the financial statements. The same practice
is followed under IFRS, using the currency of the country where
the reporting company is headquartered.
A trial balance under IFRS follows the same format as shown in
the textbook.
2-52 LO 5
A Look at IFRS
Key Points
Differences
IFRS relies less on historical cost and more on fair value than do
FASB standards.
Internal controls are a system of checks and balances designed
to prevent and detect fraud and errors. While most public U.S.
companies have these systems in place, many non-U.S.
companies have never completely documented the controls nor
had an independent auditors attest to their effectiveness.
