International GAAP 2013Generally Accepted Accounting Principles under International Financial Reporting StandardsERNST & YOUNG

Description: International GAAP 2013 goes much further than explanation. It interprets IFRSs, sets them in a relevant business context and provides insights into how complex practical issues should be resolved in the real world of global fi nancial reporting. This book is an essential tool for anyone applying, auditing, interpreting, regulating, studying or teaching international fi nancial reporting.

Written by fi nancial reporting professionals from the International Financial Reporting Group of Ernst & Young, this book provides a truly global perspective on the real-world interpretation and practical application of IFRS. Complex technical accounting issues are explained clearly in jargon-free terms and IFRSs are set in a practical context with numerous worked examples and hundreds of illustrations from the published fi nancial reports of major listed companies from around the world.

The 2013 edition of International GAAP has been fully revised and updated in order to:

• Address all new, revised and amended authoritative pronouncements and interpretations including, for many entities, the mandatory adoption in 2013 of IFRS 10 (Consolidated Financial Statements), IFRS 11 (Joint Arrangements), IFRS 12 (Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities), IFRS 13 (Fair Value Measurement) and IAS 19 Revised (Employee Benefi ts).

• Explain the many initiatives and discussions that are currently being pursued by the IASB and by the IFRS Interpretations Committee and the potential consequential changes to accounting requirements. In particular, projects on Financial Instruments, Revenue Recognition, Leases and Insurance Contracts may all signifi cantly change current accounting practice.

• Provide insight and guidance from a truly global perspective on the many issues relating to the interpretation and practical application of IFRS, based on the extensive experience of the bookís authors in dealing with recent day-to-day practical issues.

The Big TradeSimple Strategies for Maximum Market ReturnsPETER PHAM

Description: A powerful, profi table, and elegantly simple system for traders

Markets can be extraordinarily complex, and unfortunately most trading systems are too. The Big Trade presents a new system that helps fi lter out the noise. It leaves behind only meaningful signals you need to listen to in order to make profi table trades. Employing simple math and charts, it codifi es the past behavior of traders in your favourite stock to assist you to recognize high probability trading patterns.

Peter Pham’s system breaks with traditional analytical tools and rejects the theory of predictability. Instead, it lets traders understand both how markets are structured and how they behave. The result is a simple action plan that is as effective and applicable for day traders as it is for generational investors. Blending his personal story and analytical techniques, The Big Trade guides traders of all experience level to fi nd the probability that a stock price will rise or fall in a particular time period.

The Big Trade:

• Gives traders a powerful, yet simple trading methodology

• Was written by a trader with twelve years of both buy and sell side experience in global equities trading

• Is appropriate for most styles of trading, including institutional investing and day trading

For traders who want a universal approach that works for any market at any time, The Big Trade offers a new and effective methodology for successful trading without gimmicks or magic formulas.
