Product Information

The webinar will begin with a quick overview of who should/can apply the IFRS for SMEs.

Next, we will briefly refer to the core concept of an ‘asset’ and what it actually implies when we recognise an asset.

During the webinar, we will deal with the detailed accounting treatment (definition, recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure) of Intangible Assets acquired separately (not as part of a business combination), and the accounting treatment of amortisation.

The webinar will conclude with an in-depth explanation of the accounting treatment of impairment losses on individual assets (e.g. PPE) and cash-generating units.
