Non Profit Agency and Auditing

Can a funding agency enter into a bilateral contract with an external auditor to subject a non-profit entity to an external financial audit? The supposed audit engagement fee will be paid directly by the funder to the external auditor. The non-profit does not become a party to the audit engagement. Then, who becomes the addressee of the audit report? Does the external auditor become an extension of the personality of the funder? IS there such a thing as a project audit that will not be within …

Dear all,

Can you share me the international auditing standard document. Thanks

Danella,I double checked after the comment below, and I agree with Hemant. IAS 21.28 explicitly states that gains/losses on forex should be recognized in P&L. The forex is not attributable to the asset but to the financial liability.http://www.ifac.org/IAASB/
My apologies for my earlier answer.
Regards,
Jeroen

One of the four categories of financial assets as classified in IAS 39, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement is subject to “tainting rule”. Identify the category and explain what is tainting rule.

In Canada, public companies and financial institutions (generally)
will be adopting IFRS in 2011. Private companies will have the choice
between IFRS and or local Canadian standards specifically for them. It
has not been announce yet what will happen with “Not-for-profit”
organizations (generally charities), but it seems likely they will
also have a choice between IFRS and local Canadian standards designed
specifically for not-for-profit organizations (essentially the private
company accounting standards with some extras/exceptions).
Can I ask what happens in other countries that are using (or adopting)
IFRS? Do private companies have a choice to adopt IFRS, are there
local …

I’m a CPA from the US. Is the ACCA something I should join? I’m a
member of the IMA and the AICPA in the US. Is ACCA some kind of
upstart or does anyone find it to add value to their careers and is it
recognized by global employers?
Thanks for the opinions, mostly just curious here.

Dear Justin,
ACCA is a British qualification mostly recognisted by European based
mutlinational corporations, British in particular. Please also consider
CIMA which is also Brtish qualification with more focus on management
accounting (controlling). With both qualifications you can take IFRS
path.

Where can I find the training centre for IFRS in Mumbai – India, if I
register for course in IFRS with ACCA.
Regards
Asif

Asif,
ACCA provides Certification and Diploma in IFRS. You can take either
one of them as both are recognised. Certification is online but
Diploma in IFRS has examinations that are held every June & December
with exam center being in Mumbai.

Hello,
 

If a company asks a third party to construct a fixed asset and at the end of the year, the fixed asset is not complete, but you have a statement of the costs incurred, would you capitalize the costs incurred under Construction in Progress with counterpart in accruals. Or would you record an entry only when it has been delivered to the company?
 
What IFRS would be applicable?
 
Thanks,
Isabelle

Dear all
Please help in deciding what items can be regarded as cash equivalents
>
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Lina

Cash equivalents are financial instruments that can be easily converted to cash, have high liquidity like stock of quoted companies.

Best Regards.
Alberto

 
 

Lina,
I woul suggest to take a look into IAS 7.6: Short term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insgnificant risk of changes in value. Normally only an investment with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition.

Hello all!
We are currently assessing the impact of converting from our local GAAP to IFRS to prepare for a 2011 conversion. In this first diagnostic step, we hope to capture IFRS issues by account line item, divided into 4 main categories; accounting impact(disclosure and gap), system impact, business impact and people impact. (i.e. what would be the impact to the business on PP&E changes) We’re looking to bring in one of the major audit firms to guide us on this step. From this matrix, we hope to create a detailed …
