This book was released on 2022-06-01 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: U.S. private entities considering adoption of International Standards for Small- and Medium-sized Entities (IFRS for SMEs) need to understand how the new standards will modify financial reporting. However, there has been no determination of the significance of the financial statement impact of changing from United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (U.S. GAAP) to IFRS for SMEs. Without this knowledge, private entities in the United States will not be able to make an informed decision as to the benefits or consequences of adopting IFRS for SMEs. Based on stakeholder theory, this study sought to determine how adoption of IFRS for SMEs would affect the financial reporting of U.S. private entities. Using identified reporting differences between the 2 sets of standards, hypothetical 2010 IFRS for SMEs’ financial statements were prepared for 3 participating entities. Analysis of variation between the hypothetical IFRS for SMEs’ financial statements and the original U.S. GAAP financial statements provided a means to determine the financial reporting impact of IFRS for SMEs’ adoption. In each of the 3 case studies, adoption of IFRS for SMEs did not significantly influence the financial reporting of U.S private entities, indicating that the communication of financial information would be fundamentally the same using the simplified IFRS for SMEs or the more complex U.S. GAAP. The results of this study suggest that IFRS for SMEs should be considered an acceptable set of standards for the preparation of quality financial statements by U.S. private entities. This study positively contributes to social change by providing new knowledge to assist private companies in the evaluation of the adoption of IFRS for SMEs; such knowledge could, in turn, reduce financial reporting costs and improve the SMEs’ economic conditions.

Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2008 in the subject Business economics - Accounting and Taxes, grade: 1,3, University of the West of England, Bristol (Bristol Business School (University of the West of England)), course: Externes Rechnungswesen/ Corporate Reporting, language: English, abstract: The Exposure Draft of an IFRS for SMEs published in February 2007 is supposed to enhance the comparability between worldwide SMEs, and therefore meet the user needs, by concentrating on regulations that play a role for SMEs. Furthermore it is expected to reduce the financial reporting burden of the preparers, reporting SMEs without public accountability, of the financial statements. Another benefit, in case of widespread application of the standard, is expected to be the falling costs of capital of SMEs. This is because the allocation and pricing of capital is easier with a higher comparability of the financial statements of SMEs. Major issues of change were the impairment of goodwill, the cost method for associated companies, finance leases as well as the expense of research and development costs. Goodwill is unlike in full IFRSs, tested for impairment losses on indication and impaired only to the fair value. This reduces the workload spent on annual impairment testing but may lead to dilutions of expenses. Associated companies can, also in the consolidated statements, be accounted for with the cost method and the fair value model through profit or loss, which are much easier than the equity method. However, since intra-company transactions are not cancelled out, the new regulations might lead to higher profits. The accounting of finance leases changed in two respects: The regulations of lessor accounting was totally left out of the standard and has to be looked up in full IFRSs. The lessee accounting was simplified by allowing the preparers of the financial statement to determine the cost of the lease by only calculating the fair value of the leased property. This also leads to smaller expenses over the total lease period. When it comes to the research and development expenditure only minor changes were introduced. The IASB decided for providing SMEs with a choice in accounting treatment between expending both research and development cost or, on the other hand, to capitalize the development cost if certain criteria are met. Although it means a further simplification it has to be doubted that many entities decide against the possibility to capitalize the development cost but to expense them.

This book was released on 2010-12 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) believes that entities without public accountability, which the IASB calls small and medium-sized entities (SMEs), should be accounted for differently to publicly accountable entities. External users of the financial statements of SMEs are said to have different information needs. That's why, in February 2007, the IASB published its draft International Financial Reporting Standards for Small and Medium-sized Entities (IFRS for SMEs). Up till now, there has been much discussion about whether or not the users of SMEs' financial statements need internationals standards. It is not at all clear whether the international standards indeed offer added value compared to the existing standards. The IASB claims that IFRS for SMEs is based on the needs of the users of SMEs' financial statements, but evidence for this is slim. The aim of this thesis is to analyze the need for these standards and the added value of these standards for practitioners and professional organizations. Do IFRS for SMEs add value to the existing standards for a variety of users?
