Changes in December 2015 session
10y ago#1You need to brush up on IFRS 15 which probably isn't in the Kaplan August text but it IS in the December syllabus. There's an IFRS 15 chapter in the free course notes that you'll find on this site
IAS 11 and IAS 18 are now out of the syllabus but the chapter headed IAS 11 is still relevant as it demonstrates the calculations to be used for finding the figures in the context of contracts with customers
Other than that, changes in the syllabus are pretty cosmetic
G'day Mike,
How able IAS 39 VS IFRS 9? Is both standard still applicable in this Dec'15 Exam?
G'day Mike,
How about IAS 39 VS IFRS 9? Is both standard still applicable in this Dec'15 Exam?
10y ago#4IAS 39 is now no longer in force and is, therefore, no longer in your syllabus (with effect from September 2015)
Thank you so much Mike!
May I seek you advise on how to recognize and measure for "Available-For-Sale Financial Asset" under IFRS 9 if it is examinable for F7 Dec'15 exam?
10y ago#6The classification of "available for sale" that was in IAS 39 has been dropped as a classification in IFRS 9
There's no such animal now! They're extinct!
G'day Mike,
Well understood and my understanding Is clearer after your advise.
Thank you so much.
Preferably if there's any material/article related to this, appreciate your sharing. (in term of F7 Examination)
Once again, Thank you for your kind guidance.
10y ago#8Put "IFRS 9" into your search box and click on the "iasplus" option
That should help at this late stage
