International accounting topic was rare to adress between accounting practices, especially International Accounting Standard. It occured due to the restrictive source and difficulty in finding the source. However, recently the standard has been an addressed issue since Indonesia Chartered of Accountant (IAI) plans to comply the Indonesia Accounting Standard (SAK) with the International Financialreporting(IFRS)on1stJanuary2012.The purpose of the research is to measure the compliance of the (SAK) per 1st January 2008 with the IFRS per 1st January 2008 and attain the association between those two standards. Hence, the difference between the two standards and the neccessary steps to be taken for complying can be obtained. The methodology will be used in the paper are Jaccard’s Coefficients, Spearman’s Correlation Coefficient,Euclidean Distances.The sample for the paper will be 43 accounting issues adressed on both standards that have been chosen and investigated. The paper concludes that there are significant equalities (75%) between SAK per 1st January 2008 and IFRS 1st January 2008. (using Jaccard’s Coefficients). Due to several problems that have been found in the research, the author wish that the further researchers could widen the research’s samples, so the result will be more accurate and comprehensive.

IFRS are designed to bring consistency to accounting language, practices and statements, and to help businesses and investors make educated financial analyses and decisions. The Ind AS are named and numbered in the same way as the corresponding International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). National Advisory Committee on Accounting Standards (NACAS) recommends these standards to the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA). Indian viewpoints do not receive adequate attention at International Accounting Standard Board (IASB). Those are not debated adequately at the IASB before rejection. The present paper will discuss the reasons behind convergence of IFRs, rather than adoption. It also shows the Carve Outs of Ind AS from IFRS by providing valid reasons.

Harmonising the International Accounting Standards/International Financial Reporting Standards (IAS/IFRS) globally has been the objective of national boards that seek to eliminate existing differences. The harmonisation project has been substantially efficient in realising the IFRS in emerging economies. However, concerning the international accounting standard two, the existence of different inventory valuation methods in literature is one of the dilemmas confronting the application of IAS 2 in many nations globally. This study through a comprehensive literature review discusses and present a critique on the international accounting standard two to afford insight that will be beneficial to both scholar and standard setters. The findings reveal a formidable contribution of the current asset inventory on companies and compliance levels in South Africa.  Furthermore, these findings supplement prevailing body knowledge on IAS two and the value relevance of accounting inventories. Highlighting key critiques on the IAS 2 prescriptions and application internationally and also revealing the standards own crucial flaws and strengths and on companies.   Received: 6 May 2021 / Accepted: 23 August 2021 / Published: 5 November 2021

Currently there is a mix of accounting guidance for agriculture producers in the US that is both GAAP including Accounting Statement Codification 905 and non-GAAP financial guidelines. Should the US adopt International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), this guidance would be replaced with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 41 Agriculture. This study identifies systematic differences between the US and International accounting and reporting for agricultural assets and products. The study also finds that international and US agricultural accounting recognition and reporting guidance result in dissimilar reporting due to guidance interpretation. Valuation variances and definition differences including the requirement to change the agricultural asset recognition method from historical cost to fair value continue to be the basis of major reporting differences. Current US guidance on recognizing and reporting agricultural assets is more conservative than the international guidance. Overall, the US agricultural recognition and reporting guidance contains less information and is therefore less beneficial to financial statement users.

Die Bilanzierung ökonomischer Sicherungszusammenhänge, das so genannte Hedge Accounting, gehört zu den am meisten kontrovers diskutierten und umstrittenen Vorschriften der International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). Betroffen sind insbesondere die vom International Accounting Standard Board (IASB) veröffentlichten Regelungen zum Portfolio Fair Value Hedge Accounting von Zinsänderungsrisiken. Diese können als eine Weiterentwicklung der bisherigen Hedge Accounting Vorschriften angesehen werden, stoßen jedoch insbesondere in der Kreditwirtschaft auf Kritik. Der vorliegende Artikel befasst sich mit dem im International Accounting Standard 39 (IAS 39) verankerten Regelkreislauf des Portfolio Fair Value Hedge Accounting von Zinsänderungsrisiken. Dabei werden insbesondere die einzelnen Teilschritte herausgestellt und anschließend die Abbildung in der Bilanz und Gewinn- und Verlustrechnung dargestellt. The balancing of economic hedging activities, the so-called hedge accounting, is one of the most controversial and contentious discussed regulation of the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). This concerns in particular the regulations according to the Fair Value Hedge Accounting of interest rate risks issued by the International Accounting Standard Board (IASB). Those can be considered as a development of recent hedge accounting regulations, but especially in the banking industry they met with criticism.

The management of Worldwide Shipping Corporation Ltd (hereafter “Worldwide Shipping”) is confronted with a dilemma when a new international accounting standard on leases is introduced which contains a transitional provision allowing firms to defer implementation for a period of four years. Students are required to put themselves in the position of managers who have to weigh the adverse impact of early adoption of the new accounting standard against a responsibility for fair financial reporting. Worldwide Shipping is a multifaceted case that can be used as an accounting case study or a financial analysis study. The objectives of the case are threefold. First, it aims to provide students with a better understanding of the impact of off-balance sheet transactions (in this case, sale-leaseback contracts) on a firm's financial statements. Second, it requires students to examine implications of accounting choice on management compensation and debt-contracting costs, as well as the perplexing problem of recognition in financial statements vs. footnote disclosures. By putting students in the position of managers, the case increases students' awareness of the possible economic consequences arising from accounting choice. Third, it provides students with a useful exercise in the mechanics of effecting a change in accounting method using the retroactive method.

Purpose This study aims to investigate the association between seven firm-specific characteristics and the level of mandatory compliance with International Accounting Standards (IAS) 1 by firms listed on Bahrain Bourse. Design/methodology/approach A disclosure index is used to measure the extent of compliance with IAS 1. Each of the 36 sampled firms’ annual reports were examined against the index for the financial year ending December 31, 2013. Findings The results reveal an overall compliance of 83 per cent. Regression results report that only audit firm size, profitability and industry type have a positive and significant association with IAS 1 disclosure requirements. Practical implications This study should be particularly relevant to regulatory bodies in Bahrain for strategizing and encouraging compliance with IAS 1 by listed firms. Originality/value Additionally, the study contributes to financial reporting literature relating to the Gulf Cooperation Council countries, mainly Bahrain. Bahrain is a financial hub, and it is interesting to examine how it presents its financial statements to investors and the degree of its compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards since its adoption in 2007.

India is one of the emerging economies in the world. For economic development, foreign direct investment (FDI) is needed, to facilitate the investment climate. There is a need to integrate its financial reporting with rest of the economies of the globe so that investors from outside will appreciate the financial results and financial positions of the companies. This will provide uniformity and comparability of financial statements with the financial statements prepared in other countries. At present, Indian companies are preparing their financial statements as per Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in India (Indian GAAP). These Principles are based on IFRS issued by International Accounting Standard Board (IASB). However, these principles were modified substantially as per Indian laws and practices.

The purpose of this review is to explore various approaches and perspectives that are currently being used by empirical studies reporting the impact of IFRS adoption in different jurisdictions around the globe. For this purpose to be better served, this study also presents at the outset an overview of the scope, objectives and current adoption status of IFRS. This study reviewed the literature on classifications of IFRS adoption studies with the view of deducting methodical frameworks outlining the dimensions that may warrant investigation for IFRS to be consented as a set of quality and global accounting standards. This study concludes that the success of IFRS as an international accounting standard depends on one hand in its technical quality economically yielding to both uses and reporters of financial statements and on the other hand their acceptance across different jurisdictions despite their political, cultural and economic diversities.
