TS HAS BEEN TIED up of late, locked in a cupboard, trying to avoid the IFRS debates: will the US converge or won't they; what are the many changes; and what does it mean?
Until, that is, Leavitt Walmsley Associates' director Steve Collings decided to throw us a lifeline in the form of IFRS for Dummies.
Once the sniggering had subsided, we at the TS desk found ourselves engrossed in the chapter The Part of Tens, which includes ten pitfalls to avoid and ten future developments of IFRS. Not to mention a chapter (only two pages) on the putting mistakes right, one clarifying an asset is an asset and looking at assets you don't see every day.
Now, if only TS could get a book on Olympics for dummies, explaining how to avoid the top ten pitfalls and mistakes made by the security team!

In today's dynamic marketplace, budgeting can no longer serve as a company's only management system; it must integrate with and support dedicated strategy management systems, process improvement systems, and the like. In this paper, Professor Peter Horvath and Dr Ralf Sauter present what's wrong with the current approach to budgeting and how to fix it.
In this white paper CCH provide checklists to help accountants and finance professionals both in practice and in business examine these issues and make plans. Also includes a case study of a large commercial organisation working through the first year of mandatory iXBRL filing.
