Glad it was helpful! It was fascinating to do the research, and important on an ongoing basis to keep up-to-date on the new developments in both "systems".
I was just about to buy a book on IFRS because I’m trying to get familiar with the language used in financial reports but I’m glad I didn’t because I think it wouldn’t be wise to get familiar with GAAP first because of where i live and most companies I’m interested in are US. Thank you for this video. the way you break down and explain is awesome !
Thank you very much for the kind words, Jacob!!! I agree with your approach. Learn from reviewing real-world corporate financial reports, and then investigate some of the terminology you come across along the way (goodwill, intangible assets, deferred revenue, retained earnings, etc.). I have videos on most of the terms used in balance sheets, income statements and cash flow statements. Take a look at some of my financial statement case studies, it should help you on your way: ua-cam.com/video/PI9X5Ybek_E/v-deo.html Oh, and beware of the difference between GAAP and non-GAAP as well: ua-cam.com/video/ewzlgnGtfmg/v-deo.html

Clear and easy to follow video! I'm using some of the points made for my assignment and was wondering if you remember from what source you found the estimates for the number of pages if printed?
Thanks! Great to hear that, and happy to help. In researching this topic, I actually downloaded each of those publications. Just type in "US GAAP vs IFRS" and the name of any of the individual accounting firms mentioned, and you will find a PDF version of the document. That's what I used for the page count.
Amazing video ever I saw in UA-cam on the comparison of US GAAP and IFRS. Thanks Sir.. I just want your help to choose from them which one should I keep as a study?
Thank you for the compliment! :-) I would advise to be "financially bilingual": have at least a working knowledge of both. In terms of choosing one of the two to specialize in: which one would be the most relevant for your career and the location where you work? I have mostly worked for multinational companies with American roots, so naturally got exposed most to US GAAP. Definitely study the new revenue recognition and leasing standards, they are "hot topics" now.
Enjoyed the video? Then subscribe to the channel now, and watch the related video on GAAP vs non-GAAP next: ua-cam.com/video/ewzlgnGtfmg/v-deo.html or dive deeper into the new revenue recognition standard ASC 606 / IFRS 15: ua-cam.com/video/816Q6pOaGv4/v-deo.html
Thank you, Meron! In my view, it is essential to understand the main differences (conceptual as well as practical) if you want to understand business results in an international context. To add to that, I specifically researched the topic of impairments in US GAAP vs IFRS last year when some (but not all) of the oil companies recorded big one-time impairments: ua-cam.com/video/XkBB32Bnobc/v-deo.html
I study accounting in Peru. We use IFRS. but I want to learn US GAAP and his differences between the internal revenue code. I have a high knowledge about (NICS and NIIFS from IFRS) I’m in the last year of my studies as an accountant. If someone can give me a guide on how to learn US GAAP, I can answer questions about NICS and NIIFs.
The best way to find out the latest examples in those areas is to review the documents that big accounting firms like KPMG and PWC publish on their website. Very informative, though sometimes very technical. If you type "IFRS compared to US GAAP" into a search engine, those should pop up. Make sure to check a recent version of the document, as the subject matter is ever evolving.
I would suggest to go very deep in one of the two, and build strong expertise, while being aware of the differences with the other standard. Many accounting firms have published guides on the main differences, with various level of "technical" discussion.
Hello, congratulation for the terrific quality of your videos. Very precise and useful. Can you advice me about one particoular book that you think is a must-read for people that want to understand in a better way accounting? In september I'm gonna start to work as Auditor and I have time to develope better knowledge of the subject.
Hello! Thank you very much for the kind words. I would not suggest just one single book, but multiple sources about some of the high profile accounting frauds: the movie "Enron: the smartest guys in the room" and subsequently any other documentation you can find about it, book "Exposure: Inside the Olympus Scandal: How I Went from CEO to Whistleblower" by Michael Woodford, Wirecard case (there's a movie I want to watch about it on Neflix), Worldcom, Parmalat. If you know how these frauds were done, and how they lasted for as long as they did, and how they were uncovered (forensic accounting) you will know what to look for as an auditor. Hope this helps! Let me know if you enjoyed them, once you get through them.
@@TheFinanceStoryteller Thank you so much, I will definitely watch them . And a book or a course to develop more technical knowledge? Your video are a fantastic starting point but I want to really improve my skills.
I don't really have a recommendation on a specific book or a specific course. Watch lots of videos, and read articles on current "hot topics" in finance and accounting. My suggestion is to build expertise in those areas that others might struggle with, and build your brand by acquiring deep domain knowledge. Here are a few suggestions on topics: Consolidated financial statements ua-cam.com/video/DTFD912ZJQg/v-deo.html&pp=gAQBiAQB Asset impairment ua-cam.com/video/lWMDdtHF4ZU/v-deo.html&pp=gAQBiAQB Deferred tax ua-cam.com/video/MvXAljQD4II/v-deo.html&pp=gAQBiAQB GAAP vs non-GAAP ua-cam.com/video/ewzlgnGtfmg/v-deo.html&pp=gAQBiAQB Deferred revenue ua-cam.com/video/SNguYyKrqL4/v-deo.html&pp=gAQBiAQB
Hi! It would probably be good to go through the balance sheets of for example Apple or Tesla so that you become familiar with key terminology: ua-cam.com/video/J_1F8GoLOI8/v-deo.html&pp=gAQBiAQB
My general advice is to be "fluent" regarding any of the concepts explained in my Accounting 101 playlist: ua-cam.com/video/OYql7Y9NnBg/v-deo.html&pp=gAQBiAQB
@@JayPatel-ts6dt Hello Jay! For a company in India that has a US parent, the reporting for corporate purposes is on US GAAP basis. That same company will have to file statutory and tax books to the Indian government based on the applicable Indian rules.
Agree! Have been working with a new and much better setup since earlier this year, check out my video on consolidated financial statements to hear the difference: ua-cam.com/video/DTFD912ZJQg/v-deo.html
ok can we do is gaap and ifrs , and after getting certificate of us gaap can i get job. ? and where should we do us gaap or ifrs. i do account executive job
Most of the accounting concepts are universal, so you would learn them when taking an accounting degree in any country. My advice would be to contact the official organization in your country that is in charge of the accounting degrees (education + keeping people up to date). It probably has a name like Institute of Chartered Accountants, or a variation thereof. If you plan to work specifically for a company that has HQ and stock market listing in the US, then knowledge of US GAAP is very important.
Hi Mikaela! A "Basis for Conclusions" is a document that accompanies a specific IFRS standard. For example, if you go to the official IFRS website (IFRS dot ORG), you will find a Basis for Conclusions which explains the Board's rationale for the amendments to IFRS 17 proposed in the Exposure Draft in response to concerns and challenges identified by entities implementing IFRS 17.
