The purpose of Phase 3 of the 5 Phase IFRS Project model (Solution Development) is to select accounting, reporting and tax solutions in compliance with IFRS requirements… applying the organization’s overall conversion strategy.
This would include:
• Develop accounting, reporting and tax solutions.
• Determine and develop sustainable business processes and system changes.
• Develop comprehensive conversion plan for remainder steps of conversion project.
The key activities to be accomplished include:
• Accounting and tax policy selection and other issue resolution.
• Impacts analysis - consolidation of financial, business and systems effects.
• Analysis and measurement of impacts by functional area - Performance metrics review.
• Detailed conversion planning.
I hope this helps. This is one of a series of blogs that is meant to convey information relating to Canada’s transition from Canadian GAAP to IFRS.
