Manual of accounting - UK GAAP 2012/13

The definitive guide to UK accounting law and practice

PwC's Manual of accounting provides a single source of expert interpretation and practical guidance on the UK accounting standards issued by the Accounting Standards Board (ASB) and the accounting requirements of UK law, as well as the other elements that make up UK GAAP. Key changes from the previous edition include updated guidance on:

• UITF 47 (Abstract 17) 'Extinguishing financial liabilities with equity instruments' (effective 1 July 2010)
• Improvements to FRSs (effective 1 January 2011)
• ICAEW Tech 02/10 guidance on how to determine realised profits and losses under the companies act 2006
• Updated guidance on the transfer of a business under UK GAAP
• Updated extracts and examples

Written by PwC's UK Accounting Consulting Services team, the Manual will be of particular interest to finance directors, chief accountants and others concerned in preparing and using company financial statements under UK GAAP. Analysts, academics and overseas readers will find it invaluable as a comprehensive description of UK GAAP.
