More work needed on revenue recognition
The IASB and FASB jointly issued a revised revenue recognition proposal in November 2011, which would significantly impact revenue recognition for many entities when it becomes effective. In our response to the Boards' proposal, we reiterate our support for the Boards' objective to develop a single converged standard for both IFRS and US GAAP reporters, but recommend that they reconsider aspects of the proposal and provide additional application guidance to promote consistent application. Read more about our views presented in our comment letter to the Boards.
