Book Description

“Weygandt's Financial Accounting: IFRS, Fourth Edition” is a comprehensive and highly anticipated resource that addresses the growing interest in International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) both within and outside the United States. This latest edition by Weygandt emphasizes the integration of more US Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) rules, catering to the increasing number of foreign companies considering the US as their largest market.

Building upon the success of previous editions, this edition retains all the key features that users of Weygandt Financial Accounting have come to rely on. The table of contents, writing style, pedagogy, and robust end-of-chapter (EOC) materials are all maintained, ensuring familiarity and consistency for users. However, the focus is now shifted towards international companies and examples, offering a comprehensive discussion of financial accounting principles and procedures within the context of IFRS.

A notable aspect of this edition is the incorporation of exercises and problems that present students with foreign currency examples, moving beyond the sole use of US dollars. This reflects the growing global nature of business and the need for students to be proficient in handling diverse currencies and financial reporting scenarios.

With the aim of meeting the needs of instructors and students in an evolving financial landscape, “Weygandt's Financial Accounting: IFRS, Fourth Edition” is designed to provide a solid foundation in IFRS while considering the implications for companies operating in the international market. It offers a comprehensive and accessible approach to understanding the complexities of financial accounting under IFRS, preparing students for the challenges and opportunities presented by the global business environment.
