For a company applying UK GAAP, there is a decision to be made by 2015 at the latest. With UK GAAP being replaced by FRS 100, 101 and 102 the company must decide:

• Should it apply FRS 102?
• Should it apply IFRS SMEs?
• Should it apply FRS 101?
• Should it apply full IFRS?

This one day session presents a detailed review of each of the 35 sections of FRS 102 and for each section presents a comparison with the treatments available under IFRS SMEs, FRS 101 and the full IFRS. Decision making is assisted by drawing conclusion as to both the accounting and business implications offered by each choice.
The day will provide the opportunity for the delegate to:

• Gain timely and relevant technical knowledge
• Debate practical issues
• Become better placed to make an informed decision regarding the accounting regime to be followed
• Make use of the course material in the workplace which will be presented as a user friendly document comparing FRS 102, IFRS SMEs, FRS 101 and the full IFRS

WORKSHOP DRIVER
The long awaited FRS 102 was published in March 2013. With 2 years to get ready but instant adoption permitted we see changes in accounting for UK companies, perhaps not creating a big impact on the numbers being reported but marking a new way forward with the simplified standards removing approximately 90% of content compared to existing UK GAAP.
FRS 102 is set to replace existing UK GAAP and is based upon on IFRS for SMEs but with changes needed to make it work in the UK. Some of the choices removed under IFRS for SMEs, have been reinstated under FRS 102 to make the rules fit for UK Business.

A company following UK GAAP now has to choose between adopting FRS 102, adopting IFRS SMEs, adopting FRS 101 – the full IFRS with simplified disclosure or adopting the full IFRS. There are advantages and disadvantages to each option. The choice is likely to depend on which area of accounts are most pertinent to the entity. This one day workshop reviews all 35 sections of FRS 102 and provides a comparison of treatments across all the alternatives.
