Hi,
Can some one throw some information related to IFRS Vs US GAAP.

Thanks in advance.

Sankar
HI SANKAR,
IFRS is too broad a term to draw a comparison. What particularly are you looking to compare?
If it were leasing for example - I have found great information searching "ias 17 versus gaap"
IAS 17 is the particular subsection of IFRS pertaining to leasing.
Hope this helps. Let me know more and I might be able to help.
Kind regards,
Dr. Phil

Hi Durga,
For identifying differences between IFRS and USGAAP there are lot of websites of the Big4 audit firms available on the Net.
Regarding the SAP impact ,New GL Functionality is available in ECC6 where parallel ledgers can be configured for Local and IFRS Reporting.Also scenarios for Inventory valuation ,foreign exchange gain/loss,Consolidation , Revenue recognition and asset Accounting can be envisaged for IFRS impact at a broader level.
Thanks

Hi Durga
to be more precise, US GAAP is a must for SEC Listed companies in the USA and it is case law based. It consists of structure reporting as given below.
a. Balance Sheet
b. Income Statement
c. Cash flow statement
d. Statement of retained earnings
e. Notes
IFRS is mainly for Trading companies.
Please go through www.fasb.org
and also American Accounting Codification for more information.
Cheers
Kris
Any WILEY book on US GAAP or IFRS has an appendix with a comparison US GAAP;IFRS
