...Assignment 1 Case 3-8 IASB vs. FASB Conceptual Frameworks Q. Discuss the similarities and differences between the FASB and IASB conceptual frameworks with respect to the definitions of the elements of financial statements. INTRODUCTION At the October 2004 joint IASB-FASB meeting, the Boards agreed to add to their respective agendas a joint project to develop a common conceptual framework—a single framework that both converges and improves upon the existing frameworks of the two Boards. (The Boards had previously discussed a staff proposal for this project at their April joint meeting.) The Boards also agreed that the project should be divided into phases. Initially, the focus will be on objectives, qualitative characteristics, elements, recognition, and measurement. The Boards will give priority to addressing issues that are likely to yield benefits to the Boards in the short term, that is, cross-cutting issues that affect a number of their standards-level agenda projects. Therefore, the first step is to identify and prioritize those cross-cutting issues. Possible examples that the staff have suggested include the meaning and role of reliability; the definition of liability; the meaning of probable; the effect of conditions, contingencies, or other uncertainties; the unit of account; and accounting for contractual rights and obligations, as explained further below. Initially, the Boards will focus on concepts applicable to business entities in the private sector...

...Insurance Contracts This project deals with the accounting for insurance contracts. As stated on the site, “accounting for insurance contracts does not provide users with the information they need to meaningfully understand the insurer’s financial position, performance and risk exposure.” Additionally, IFRS does not provide the proper guidance to how insurers should handle certain issues. The main goal of the Insurance Contracts project is to provide a single principle-based standard to account for all types of insurance contracts. Also, because comparability between entities is largely lacking today, the Insurance Contracts project also aims to enhance the comparability of financial reporting between them. The Insurance project is broken down into 2 phases. The first phase coincides with the issuance of ‘IFRS 4 Insurance Contracts,’ which “offered limited improvement in account by insurers and enhanced disclosures on amount, timing and uncertainty of future cash flows from insurance contracts.” Phase 2 will be the issuance of a new Insurance Contracts Standard, which will actually replace IFRS 4 (Insurance Contracts). Leases The Leases project deals with the reporting of lease information to investors and analysts. The main goal of the project is to develop a new standard that will establish the guidance for entities to follow on reporting information regarding the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from a lease. As stated in the work plan, in...

...Accounting and its role in society Accounting is concerned with collecting, analysing and communicating economic information (Atrill & McLaney, 2004, p1). However in order to develop a broader understanding of accounting and the central role it plays in society, we need to consider it from a social perspective. Individuals in society coexist by establishing relationships with each other. Another way of viewing society is by segmenting it into different groups or arenas, for example the social, economic, organizational and political arenas (Kyriacou, 2007, Lecture 1, p4). In order to function effectively, these different arenas need to communicate and it is accounting information that facilitates this communication. According to Kyriacou (2007, Lecture 1, p5) accounting information serves many important purposes, for example assisting users in making informed decisions, in relation to the effective allocation of scarce resources. Therefore accounting information can be seen to be a potent influence in society, which affects everybody. This is illustrated by the National Coal Board case (Cooper et al, 1985, p10) were the measurement of accounting profit was used to justify the closure of coal pits, causing an impact on electricity prices, jobs and taxes. Accounting has a long history and as demonstrated by Hines (1988, p251-261) it is seen as being socially constructed i.e. it is practised by people for people and therefore it is more of an art rather than a science. Unlike...

...Concept Comparison and Analysis Jo Ann Tyler Green NUR/513 10/15/2012 Michelle Johnson Concept Comparison and Analysis The concept, quality of life, as used in nursing theories, is presented in a historically situated context. This approach to concept analysis was selected to illuminate the subjective, contextual, and fluid nature of the concept. Based on this review, quality of life is defined as an intangible, subjective perception of one’s lived experience. From a review of Peplau’s, Rogers’, Leininger’s, King’s, and Parse’s conceptualizations of quality of life, it is concluded that it may be viable to replace health with quality of life as a meta-paradigm concept for nursing. There are numerous definitions of quality of life that exist. Described as experiences of life (Meeberg, 1993), satisfaction with life, and well-being (Ferrans, 1996; Haas, 1999; (Meeberg, 1993), the definition of quality of life lacks precision and specificity. Consistency is important because “differences in meaning can lead to profound differences in outcomes for research, clinical practice, and allocation of health care resources” (Ferrans, 1996, p. 294). Nurses have made important contributions to understanding this concept. The quality of life has been examined in groups of people experiencing a particular illness or health deficit, such as cancer or heart disease (C. R. King, 1998). Quality of life concept analyses have focused on existential aspects of the concept. However, these...

...Mr. James Leisenring, who is a FASB Senior Advisor, makes a presentation about the conceptual framework on Thursday. He expressed some views in this presentation are on his own and do not necessarily represent official position of the financial accounting standard board. Official position of the FASB Board is arrived at only after extensive due process and deliberations. In class, we learned that the conceptual framework is making up with objective, qualitative characteristics, constraints; elements, recognition measurement and disclosure concepts, and financial statement elements which are provide guidance to standard setting. In our text book, the conceptual framework has been described as an “accounting constitution” because it provides the underlying foundation for US accounting standard. And more formally, it is a coherent system of interrelated objectives and fundamental that is intended to lead to consistent standard and that prescribes the nature, function, and limits of financial accounting and reporting. Mr. Leisenring comes up with some different views and concerns of some aspect of the concept framework in his presentation. For example, he talks about the definition of assets liabilities and revenue and expenses, on his view, Mr. leisenring concerns the definition of those concept are kind of vogue and uncertainty. There is no discussion of what items that are not resources or obligations should be recognized or what would be the basis for recognition. He talks about...

...What is a conceptual framework? Why is a conceptual framework necessary in financial accounting? .A conceptual framework establishes the concepts that underlie financial reporting. A conceptual framework is a coherent system of interrelated objectives and fundamentals that are expect to lead to consistent standards'. A coherent system of concepts that flow from an objective. The objective identifies the purpose of financial reporting. The other concepts provide guidance on (1) identifying the boundaries of financial reporting; (2) selecting the transactions, other events, and circumstances to be represented; (3) how they should be recognized and measured; and (4) how they should be summarized and reported. What is the primary objective of financial reporting? The objective of general-purpose financial reporting is to provide financial information about the reporting entity that is useful to present and potential equity investors, lenders, and other creditors in making decisions about providing resources to the entity. Those decisions involve buying, selling, or holding equity and debt instruments, and providing or settling loans and other forms of credit. Information that is decision-useful to capital providers may also be useful to other users of financial reporting, who are not capital providers What is meant by the term “qualitative characteristics of accounting information”? Qualitative characteristics of accounting information that distinguish better or (more useful)...

...Viewpoint Design in Information Systems Just found "Consistency in multi-viewpoint design of enterprise information systems" by Remco M. Dijkman, Dick A.C. Quartel, and Marten J. van Sinderen. It was published on Information and Software Technology Volume 50, Issues 7-8, June 2008, Pages 737-752. "Different stakeholders in the design of an enterprise information system have their own view on that design. To help produce a coherent design this paper presents a framework that aids in specifying relations and consistency rules between such views. The contribution of our framework is that it provides a collection of basic concepts. These basic concepts aid in relating viewpoints by providing: (i) a common terminology that helps stakeholders to understand each others concepts; and (ii) re-usable consistency rules. We show that our framework can be applied, by performing a case study in which we specify the relations and consistency rules between three RMODP viewpoints" Viewpoint Effectiveness In my thesis I have conducted different case studies to validate the use of the viewpoint analyzer, a tool based on a production system, to help the analysis of viewpoints. Using different descriptions written in VWPL the tool would identify "candidates" for wrong information, inconsistencies and missing information. The case studies did also pointed out that by having an agenda for discussing discrepancies would increase the overall knowledge about the topic at hand. The paper...

...measuring coping, basis of adaptation nursing, implications of individual and common good for clinical nursing, and emerging nursing knowledge and practice outcome. She developed the Adaptation Model of Nursing in 1976. The theory was influenced by observations of practice; insights derived from existing theories and other literature sources. After working with Dorothy E Johnson, Roy’s mentor during her graduate nursing education, she encouraged Roy to develop her thoughts on adaptation into conceptual framework for nursing. Roy becomes convinced of the importance of describing the nature of nursing as a service to society. This prompted her to begin her model with goal of nursing being to promote adaptation. Roy’s model was conceived when nursing theorist Dorothy Johnson challenged her students during a seminar to develop conceptual model of nursing. Johnson’s nursing model was the impetus/motivation for the development of Roy’s adaptation model. Roy’s model incorporated concepts from Adaptation – Level – Theory of Perception from renowned American physiological psychologist Harry Helson, Ludwig von Bertalanffy’s system model and Anatol Rapoport’s system definition (nurseslabs.com). Roy combines Helson’s work with Rapoport’s definition of system and views the person as an adaptive system. Her clinical experience is another factor that motivated her to develop her theory. Roy worked as a pediatric nurse and noticed a great resiliency of children and their ability to adapt in...

The discussion of the framework is limited with the linking of the concept of self-efficacy to the independent variable of the nurse-coached IMT. No model of the framework is provided. The major study concepts include: situational demands, vicarious experiences, verbal persuasion, enactive attainment, performance accomplishment, and enhanced self-efficacy. Variable Identification and Definitions Independent variable: Home-based nurse coached IMT Intervention Conceptual definition: “Bandura‟s Self-Efficacy Theory guided the intervention for the experimental group (IMT)… Vicarious experiences for the IMT group were accomplished by observing the demonstration of the tack of using the Threshold Device, thus „modeling‟ the instruction and demonstration provided by the RA. Performance accomplishment was achieved by „mastering‟ the technique of inspiring into the device with a nose clip in place… thus providing tangible evidence of progress” (Padula et al., 2009, p. 21). Operational definition: “The Threshold Device (Healthscan) was used for resistive IMT breathing training… Training consisted of demonstration by the RAs, with return demonstration at baseline followed by a week of device use…” The study intervention was detailed in Padula et al.

...innovation” on the basis that seemingly minor changes to technology which may earlier be classified as an incremental innovation can have competitive consequences of a radical one. The key concept is the distinction between component knowledge and architectural knowledge. The paper argues that firms concentrate on refining components within a stable architecture established by a dominant design, and consequently, their “information-processing capabilities” are shaped by the existing architecture. While building upon component knowledge, their architectural knowledge is outmoded and made obsolete by architectural innovations. Their resulting inability to identify or understand new interactions between components has serious competitive consequences. The conceptual framework of the paper is clear and straightforward. The main argument is advanced in a logical manner, and supporting premises (such as the way organizations manage knowledge) are supported by prior literature. Within the boundaries of the paper’s assumptions, the argument is persuasive. Furthermore, the application to the photolithographic alignment (PA) equipment industry justifies the model. The trends in the industry suggest the conceptual framework is largely accurate. Nonetheless, the assumptions made limit the usefulness of the concept. Firstly, the analysis of firms’ information-processing is restricted to communication channels, information filtering and problem-solving strategies, ignoring other institutions,...
