The IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards) has already been obligated to apply in preparing the consolidated financial statements of the listed companies in EU from 2005. The examination of making the road map of the total introduction of the IFRS was started in the Business Accounting Council in Japan. Looking ahead to the total introduction of the IFRS, which is surely expected to be realized in the near future, we offer the efficient introduction support services.
Provision of the latest information about the progress of the institutionalization of the IFRS
We provide timely the information on the progress of the deliberation in the Business Accounting Council about the introduction of the IFRS and the details of the revisions of the IFRS.
Provision of the IFRS introduction schedule of the individual company and follow-up business
The Japanese accounting standards are the rules-based accounting standards, stipulating detailed treatment methods.
On the other hand, the IFRS is the principle-based accounting standards, stipulating only a basic matter of the accounting treatment.
Here is the difficulty of the introduction of the IFRS for the Japanese companies.
Therefore, in order to cope with the IFRS, we have to clarify the points of difference between the Japanese accounting standards as applied now and the IFRS, and there is also the need for a work to translate them into the concrete accounting treatment.
To that end, an adequate preparatory period must be secured and perform minute scheduling.
We make the suggestion of a concrete schedule and the follow-up as brains behind our clients.
Work on the reclassification of consolidated financial statements from the Japanese standard to IFRS standard
