Advanced Financial Reporting under
A five-day programme on preparing financial statements under IFRS, covering the conceptual framework, IFRS 15 revenue, IFRS 16 leases, IFRS 9 instruments, IFRS 3 combinations and consolidation, IAS 36 impairment, IAS 12 deferred tax, IFRS 13 fair value, and disclosure requirements.
Introduction
Advanced Financial Reporting under IFRS Training Course builds the technical judgement that complex financial reporting now demands. Standards have grown more principles-based and more interconnected, so a single transaction can touch revenue, leases, financial instruments, and deferred tax at once. Reporting professionals who work standard by standard, without seeing those links, produce accounts that restate later. This course teaches the links. It covers IFRS 15, 16, 9, 3, and related standards as one integrated framework. Furthermore, it applies consolidation, impairment, and disclosure requirements to real reporting scenarios. In addition, it prepares participants for audit challenge. As a result, participants prepare reporting that holds up under review.
