About the Conference

This co-sponsored conference will provide a forum for the presentation of academic research studies that produce insights into whether the FASB and/or IASB standards on revenue recognition (Topic 606 and IFRS 15), leases (Topic 842 and IFRS 16), and financial instruments (Topic 326 and IFRS 9) have: (i) accomplished their stated objectives, (ii) provided benefits to users of financial information, (iii) resulted in unexpected implementation or continuing application costs, or (iv) given rise to unexpected economic consequences. Research that examines the impact of similarities or differences between US GAAP and IFRS Standards in these areas is also appropriate.
