Description

IFRS 18 is a major new accounting standard that replaces IAS 1 and significantly changes how financial statements are presented and disclosed. It introduces a new structure for the statement of profit or loss, new mandatory subtotals, and detailed disclosure requirements for Management-defined Performance Measures (MPMs).

This course is designed to help you clearly understand IFRS 18 in a simple and practical way. You will learn the objective and scope of IFRS 18 and how it impacts financial statement presentation. The course explains the new operating, investing and financing categories, the required subtotals, and how entities should present income and expenses under the new standard.

A key focus of this course is Management-defined Performance Measures (MPMs). You will learn what an MPM is, why IFRS 18 regulates them, and the detailed disclosure requirements including reconciliation to IFRS figures, tax effects and non-controlling interests.

The course uses clear explanations, illustrations and practical formats of financial statements so that you can apply IFRS 18 in real-life financial reporting. It is suitable for both beginners and professionals who want to stay up to date with the latest IFRS developments.

By the end of this course, you will be able to understand and interpret IFRS 18–compliant financial statements and confidently explain the new presentation and disclosure requirements.
