International Classification of Financial Reporting: Third Edition
About this ebook
Christopher Nobes offers a critical analysis of the many previous accounting classifications, having drawn lessons from other fields of science and social science. Revised and updated to reflect the IFRS era, the book discusses how old classifications are reflected in today’s international differences in practice under IFRS. It concludes with a discussion on the most useful classifications, and how classifications can still be relevant in the era of international standards.
This book will be essential for academics, postgraduates and undergraduates in international accounting, accounting theory and to international accounting professionals.
