International GAAP 2008, Generally Accepted Accounting Practice under International Financial Reporting Standards by Ernst & Young LLP

IFRSs, the standards set by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), are complex and sometimes obscure. Understanding their implications and applying them appropriately requires something special....and that is why International GAAP® 2008 is the essential tool for anyone applying, auditing, interpreting, regulating, studying and teaching international financial reporting. It provides expert interpretation and practical guidance for busy professionals, and includes, in every chapter, detailed analysis of how complex financial reporting problems can be resolved appropriately and effectively.










Editor's Note:

Gail PerryCongress AMT Update: Congressional Democrats no doubt held their noses while voting to patch the encroaching Alternative Minimum Tax for one more year with no offsetting tax raise to pay the government for the revenue it will lose by allowing taxpayers another year of rolled back AMT rates. President Bush has indicated he will sign the legislation. This might not signal Peace on Earth, but at least it's a big gesture of Good Will To Men (and Women). Thanks, Congress, for rising to the occasion. Now go home and have some figgy pudding.
