Accounting policies (IFRS)

·
Demonstrate a general knowledge of part I of the CPA Canada Handbook – Accounting through
discussion of the company’s choice of
specific accounting policies.[1]
You should reference the relevant sections of the Handbook (emphasizing topics
covered in Accounting 3410) setting out the available alternatives and why
you believe that the subject company made the choices they did (e.g.
comparability, income maximization, or…). As an investor, why do you care about
the choices the company made? How do they impact on your analysis?

[1] In many instances, the company does not have a choice
on how to do thing, e.g. it recognizes revenues in accordance with IFRS 15.
Other time they do, for example, they can classify financial liabilities as
financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, or financial
liabilities at amortized cost. I am only
interested in the accounting policies where the company has a choice.
