IFRS News - new global revenue standard is here at last

The IASB has published IFRS 15 ‘Revenue from Contracts with Customers’.

IFRS 15:

• replaces IAS 18 ‘Revenue’, IAS 11 ‘Construction Contracts’ and some revenue-related Interpretations;
• establishes a new control-based revenue recognition model;
• changes the basis for deciding whether revenue is recognised at a point in time or over time;
• provides new and more detailed guidance on specific topics; and
• expands and improves disclosures about revenue.

This special edition of IFRS News explains the key features of the new Standard and provides practical insights into its application and impact.
