IFRS or International Financial Reporting Standards, to give it its full name, is gradually starting to gain momentum. Today alone, I’ve seen ads in newspapers, heard about it on the radio, and the internet is rife with information on this topic. January 1, 2011, the official changeover date here in Canada, may seem a long way off but in truth, that’s not the drop dead date for IFRS. In order to report 2010 comparatives in your 2011 financial statements, you’ll need to have captured IFRS data throughout 2010. That being said, your starting point for 2010 is your 2009 closing position. Hmm...that’s not far away at all! Are you going to be ready? There’s a plethora of resources readily available out there but, with so many places to get your information from and so many firms wanting you to try their wares, where can you find useful tips, hints, checklists, webinars and other useful resources to get yourself up to speed with the coming changes? |
