IFRS FAQs provide insights on frequently asked questions on a variety of IFRS topics. These FAQs incorporate BDO's expertise as well as IFRS Interpretations Committee agenda decisions, which relate to the sub-topics.
FAQs are organised by major topic (e.g. income taxes) then sub-topics within each major topic (e.g. deductible temporary differences).
IFRS FAQs are updated regularly as BDO publishes new guidance and as the IFRS Interpretations Committee issues new agenda decisions.
