International Financial Reporting: A Practical Guide

by Alan Melville

"International Financial Reporting 3e"provides a unique practical introduction to the international standards, outlining how these standards are used on a daily basis by companies in the preparation of their financial statements. The author examines the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure requirements of each IFRS and IAS in a clear and concise way which makes a difficult set of standards comprehensible to even a novice student.

Features of the book include interpretive guidance, coverage of every key International Financial Reporting Standard (IFRS) and International Accounting Standard (IAS), together with an unparalleled level of student interactivity and assessment.

Examples and practice questions are provided throughout the book and in a new Companion Website developed for this 3rd edition to aid student understanding and to provide a framework for grasping the key aspects of this complex and fast-moving subject.

The book I specifically found to be quite useful as a student and when ever I didn't get something in one of my lectures I could go through the book and most the time I felt the explanation to be rather simple but not all the time hence the four star review I'm not one to be strict but when it didn't help it even confused me more, which wasn't helpful when revising for my exams in January
