Overview
International accounting standards are used as the basis for financial reporting outside of the United States. The original documents are lengthy and difficult to research. The International Accounting course solves this problem by condensing the key elements of the standards into a single volume. This course describes the key elements of each accounting topic, how accounting information is to be disclosed, and where to look in the source documents for additional information. The text contains hundreds of practical examples that show how to apply international accounting standards to real-world situations, as well as sample journal entries and usage tips. In short, International Accounting serves as a handy reference for accountants who need quick answers to difficult problems.
