Course Details
Charity assignments are susceptible to a higher than normal risk level due to several factors. One such factor is the requirement to ensure that their accounts are prepared in accordance with an applicable financial reporting framework. While the Charities SORP is not yet mandatorily applicable, many charities are voluntarily applying this which presents additional disclosure requirements. This course focuses on the key considerations for financial reporting in Irish Charities, including;
- Selection of an appropriate financial reporting framework
- The differences between SORP and FRS 102
- Key accounting issues for Charities, including issues with SORP application
- Review of Charities financial statements
