Author(s):  
Sayan Basu

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.

Objetivo: Identificar quais competências são desenvolvidas na aplicação de casos para ensino com a utilização de técnicas de ensino diferentes, à luz do Ensino Embasado na Estrutura Conceitual (EEEC) e da Taxonomia de Bloom. Método: Foram testadas três técnicas de ensino: Grupo de Verbalização e de Observação (GVGO), Júri Simulado e Problem-Based Learning (PBL). A percepção dos discentes foi coletada por meio de questionário e grupo focal. Resultados: Na percepção dos estudantes, o emprego das técnicas, desenvolveu habilidades e competências distintas. Assim, a escolha da metodologia para aplicação de casos deve estar alinhada com os objetivos educacionais estabelecidos pelo docente. Além disso, apesar de terem sido desenvolvidas competências de todos os estágios do EEEC, GVGO e PBL desenvolveram mais aquelas do estágio 3, enquanto o Júri Simulado aquelas do estágio 2. Contribuições: Os resultados podem ser úteis para o International Accounting Standard Board (IASB) ir além do desenvolvimento de casos para ensino no EEEC, incorporando na agenda reflexões sobre quais metodologias utilizar na aplicação desses materiais no instituto de alcançar o objetivo aplicação coerente das International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).

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.

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.

Este estudo investiga se há evidências de que a carta emitida e divulgada ao mercado pelo normatizador contábil internacional, o International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), alertando sobre a inadequação da contabilização dos títulos de dívida soberanos de alto risco, apresentou conteúdo informacional e causou alterações nos preços das ações de bancos da Alemanha, Espanha, França, Itália e do Reino Unido, que possuíam títulos gregos em suas carteiras. Esta análise revela-se importante, pois esta foi a primeira vez que o IASB se posicionou sobre a adequação das demonstrações financeiras publicadas às normas internacionais de contabilidade (International Financial Reporting Standards - IFRS). Para a implementação da análise foi identificada como data do evento o dia da divulgação pública da carta pela mídia especializada. Apesar de a carta ter sido publicada em 30 de agosto, ela é datada de 04 de agosto de 2011 e, segundo o IASB, só veio a ser divulgada neste dia, pois, no dia anterior (29 de agosto de 2011), o Financial Times havia noticiado reportagens sobre as preocupações do IASB acerca das inadequações contábeis que estavam ocorrendo no mercado. Para avaliar o impacto do evento foi utilizada a medida de Retorno Ajustado pelo Mercado e, através de uma abordagem de diferença em diferença, foi possível testar o efeito da interação entre o tempo após a data do evento e o grupo de tratamento (bancos que possuíam títulos do governo grego). Para esse teste foi realizada uma regressão para cada janela de evento, sendo aplicado o método dos Mínimos Quadrados Ordinários (MQO) com dados agrupados (pooled data). Os resultados mostraram que há evidências de que a opinião do normatizador é relevante, ou seja, que a carta do IASB impactou o retorno das ações dos bancos que possuíam títulos do governo grego no período analisado.

Em 2016, o International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) emitiu a norma International Financial Reporting Standards 16 (IFRS 16) substituindo a International Accounting Standards 17 (IAS 17), a qual estabelece os princípios para reconhecimento, mensuração, apresentação e divulgação das operações de arrendamento mercantil (Associação Brasileira das Empresas de Leasing - ABEL, 2019). No Brasil, o Comitê de Pronunciamento Contábeis alterou o Pronunciamento Contábil 06 (CPC 06), anteriormente correlato à IAS17, passando a ser correlato à IFRS 16. Segundo o Instituto dos Auditores Independes do Brasil (IBRACON), 74% das companhias do índice IBrX-100 terão impactos relevantes em seus balanços após a adequação aos novos métodos de registro de arredamentos mercantil (Gutierrez, 2019). Nesse contexto, esta pesquisa teve como objetivo verificar como as companhias dos segmentos de transportes da Brasil, Bolsa e Balcão (B3) evidenciaram os possíveis impactos previstos a partir da contabilização do arrendamento mercantil de acordo com o CPC 06. Foram então analisadas as 12 companhias listadas nos segmentos de transportes da B3. Foram consultados as notas explicativas e os pareceres de auditoria independente dessas companhias do ano de 2018. Verificou-se que todas as 12 companhias analisadas informaram em suas notas explicativas estarem cientes da obrigatoriedade da adoção das alterações do Comitê de Pronunciamentos Contábeis CPC 06 a partir de 1º de janeiro de 2019. No entanto, das companhias pesquisadas, duas não informaram os impactos previsto a partir da adoção do CPC 06 correlato à IFRS 16. Ressalta-se que a evidenciação dos impactos previstos é relevante para os investidores avaliarem a situação econômico financeira das companhias.

Het is inmiddels 20 jaar geleden dat de Europese Unie een beslissende keuze maakte in het ontwikkelen van een eigen GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles; dus stelsel van accountingregels). De keuze luidde: no, non, nein, não, nej, nee: er zou geen eigen EUGAAP worden ontwikkeld. Wel werd er voorzichtig gewezen op de toenmalige International Accounting Standards (IAS); inmiddels omgedoopt tot International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). Kortom Lidstaten werden vrijgelaten in de keuze van een GAAP voor beursgenoteerde ondernemingen en een beetje aangemoedigd om daarbij aan IAS te denken. Vijf jaar later, rond de millenniumwisseling dus, volgde er een update van de Europese accountingstrategie waarin niet geheel verrassend werd geconstateerd dat jaarrekeningen op de EU-kapitaalmarkt niet vergelijkbaar waren.

Na publicatie van de IFRS for SMEs (International Financial Reporting Standards for Small and Medium-sized Entities) door de International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) vroeg de Europese Commissie (EC) zich af of IFRS for SMEs moet worden toegestaan binnen de lidstaten. Op een consultatie ontving de EC reacties die zeer divers waren: van sterke voorstanders tot sterke tegenstanders. In dit artikel wordt onderzocht of er bepaalde patronen zijn te herkennen in deze voors en tegens. Daarbij wordt vooral gekeken naar verschillen in ‘accountingcultuur’ in de diverse regio’s binnen Europa. De uitkomsten duiden er op dat met name het verschil in nadruk op ‘principles versus rules’ en het belang van conservatieve winstbepaling de meningen verdelen. Omdat deze aspecten cultuurgebonden zijn, zal het niet eenvoudig zijn om IFRS for SMEs algemeen geaccepteerd te krijgen.

Europe has to endorse the International Financial Reporting Standards’, verzucht Sir David Tweedie, voorzitter van de International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), tijdens een interview dat ik afgelopen zomer met hem had1. Het wil maar niet boteren tussen de IASB en de Europese Commissie. Langer dan een jaar wordt er al gesteggeld over de goedkeuring van IAS 39 over de verwerking en waardering van financiële instrumenten. Het ziet er momenteel (augustus 2004) niet naar uit dat de Europese Commissie IAS 39 volledig zal gaan voorschrijven, omdat zij meent dat de IASB onvoldoende in haar richting is opgeschoven. In plaats daarvan overweegt de Europese Commissie IAS 39 weliswaar goed te keuren, maar een aantal bepalingen in deze standaard tijdelijk buiten werking te stellen. Het betreft bepalingen op het gebied van hedge accounting en de waardering van financiële verplichtingen tegen reële waarde.
