Introduction

This online IFRS training is being delivered live in a single 4 hour session which runs from 13:00 – 17:00 London (UK).

This focus session deals with key considerations when applying IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Reviews by regulatory bodies of its application have identified aspects of IFRS 15 where the quality and usefulness of revenue accounting and disclosure can be improved by preparers. The course integrates examples of, and suggestions for, such improvements into a clear explanation of the Standard’s requirements. In addition, the course will review the effect of relevant Agenda Decisions by the IFRS Interpretations Committee.
