Attending those special
IASB sessions was part of School Board Vice President Wendy Schilling's dedication to District 70 and earned her a Master Board certificate.
The
IASB inherited the International Accounting Standards Committee's (IASC's) Framework for the Preparation and Presentation of Financial Statements (the Framework) issued in 1989, which was partially derived from the FASB's Concept Statements.
En este sentido, el
IASB en su proceso de desarrollo de los principios, se ha visto en la necesidad de jerarquizar los diferentes factores para asi poder dar respuestas eficaces a las necesidades que la ciencia contable exige respecto de un cuerpo normativo armonizado y globalizado.
Van der Tas comments: The
IASB has addressed some of the concerns raised by respondents about the cost and complexity of implementing the new standard.
I don't think anyone would argue against the idea that the convergence project between the
IASB and the FASB has led to positive outcomes: The
IASB is more mature, the FASB is improved, and accounting pronouncements across the globe are more converged than many would have ever dreamed possible.
In the first decade of its existence, the
IASB expressed its Mission Statement this way:
IASB finalized its expected credit loss standard in April 2014 and it will apply to credit unions in Canada, Australia and most other jurisdictions outside of the United States.
AAOIFI and
IASB, the body that develops and issues International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), exchanged views with the international Islamic finance industry on issues relating to application of international accounting standards for Islamic finance.
The
IASB and FASB worked for years to meet international calls for a converged financial instruments standard, but their efforts proved unsuccessful in part because they were unable to agree on a model for impairment.
Proposals from the International Accounting Standards Board (
IASB) to improve understanding, and avoid undue cost or effort in applying, the International Financial Reporting Standard for small and medium-sized enterprises (IFRS for SMEs), have been welcomed by ACCA (the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants).
In January 2013,
IASB hosted a public forum to foster dialogue between all stakeholders in financial statements and the
IASB about how to improve the usefulness and clarity of disclosure.
It did this by granting extractive industries companies an exemption from the provisions of other standards, such as IAS 8, Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors, which would have required companies to use accounting methods consistent with the
IASB's Conceptual Framework definitions, recognition criteria and measurement concepts for assets, liabilities, income and expenses (
IASB 2004b).
