Outline
Many organisations are required to report US GAAP numbers which can be daunting. This interactive and engaging virtual course will aim to demystify US GAAP.
Whilst over times there have been considerable efforts to increase convergence with US GAAP and IFRS (which leads onto FRS102 and OFS accounts direction) differences do still remain, not least the fact that US GAAP is often quoted as being “rule based” as opposed to “principles based”.
This introductory module is aimed at members of finance who are responsible for producing the annual report along with creating the US GAAP “conversion”. It will ensure that you understand the major accounting differences and areas of risk that need to be focused on (which will be covered in more detail on module 2).
The course content will include:
Important Notes:
This is the first module in a two part series. The second module (12th November 2021) is in the process of being developed. The second module will focus more specifically on the GAAP differences for the HE sector and the supplementary schedule. It will be available to book once we have more details of the module contents and the fee (NB: the fee for the first module does not include the second module, there will be a separate fee).
These modules are not designed to replace the need to work with external advisers – instead they are designed to increase your confidence in US GAAP and understand the main risk areas to make the process smoother and more efficient.
As a “proper” interactive, training course this session will not be recorded, delegates are requested to have their cameras on and come prepared to participate.
