Manual of accounting - Financial instruments 2012
A guide to IAS 32, IAS 39, IFRS 7 and IFRS 9
Accounting for financial instruments is one of the most complex and taxing areas in accounting today that needs to be understood by all practicing accountants. The International Financial Reporting Standards that govern this area of accounting (IAS 32, IAS 39, IFRS 7 and IFRS 9) are often difficult to understand and to interpret. PwC’s ‘Manual of accounting – Financial instruments 2012’ is a thoroughly comprehensive, clearly explained and informative guide to these standards. It contains practical worked examples and extracts from company financial statements that help to illustrate the explanations.
Key updates from the previous edition include:
- Updated guidance to reflect the revised version of IFRS 9, ‘Financial instruments,’ issued in November 2010
- IASB amendment to IFRS 7, 'Financial instruments: Presentation', on derecognition.
- Annual improvements 2010.
- IFRIC agenda decisions.
- New extracts and examples.
