IFRS – Practical Application and Comparison to U.S. GAAPThis intensive three-day course is designed to provide an understanding of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), some of the key differences between IFRS and U.S. GAAP, and what is required to reconcile those differences. It is designed for financial executives of U.S. subsidiaries of foreign companies, as well for executives of U.S. domiciled companies interested in accessing capital markets outside the United States which require the preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS. Past sessions received excellent marks from attendees for both the extent of the topics covered and the practical knowledge of the presenters.
Lecture sessions are supplemented by problem solving and case discussion to strengthen and reinforce your understanding of the topics. Integrated into the program is discussion of significant non-accounting considerations that must be taken into effect such as the impact on systems, processes and controls of moving from U.S. GAAP to IFRS. In addition, sufficient time has been set aside to consider your questions.
If you are looking for an excellent resource to obtain an understanding of the differences between U.S. GAAP and IFRS and the implications of those differences, you should plan now to attend.

TECHNICAL ACCOUNTING 12
Accounting for Foreign Currency & Interest Rate DerivativesHedging foreign currency risk and interest rate risk This course is directed at both treasury and accounting professionals, and is designed to help you understand how the derivatives market works for hedging interest rate risk and foreign currency risk and how to account for hedging transactions under U.S. GAAP.
Although some derivatives may be highly sophisticated and esoteric instruments, the vast majority of hedgers use plain vanilla contracts in textbook applications to manage their interest rate and foreign exchange rate exposures. This seminar is designed for just these types of companies. It takes the mystery out of both the instruments and the accounting.
Under current U.S. GAAP, derivative users may legitimately apply alternative accounting treatments to common transactions; but special hedge accounting is invariably preferred by most public companies, as it makes the intent of the hedging activity transparent to readers of financial statements and generally minimizes the volatility of reported earnings. This treatment, however, is not automatic—and, in fact, qualifying for this treatment is fraught with difficulties. This seminar is directed to overcoming these obstacles, thereby making the application of hedge accounting more readily accessible.
Special attention is given to the question of how to design hedge effectiveness tests and how to measure hedge ineffectiveness, arguably the most challenging aspects of current U.S. GAAP for those seeking to qualify for hedge accounting treatment. Beyond the documentation requirements, financial reporting professionals are also charged with preparing correct journal entries and disclosures relating to derivatives. Determining correct earnings and OCI allocations and compiling appropriate disclosure amounts relating to ineffective hedge results and reclassification amounts are hardly trivial exercises, but our “hands-on” case studies have been designed to make these concepts and procedures accessible. Woven throughout the course will be material from the FASB agenda project that may fundamentally alter certain hedge accounting considerations.

• Discover a framework that links these value drivers to shareholder value
• Understand how business strategy and management actions affect these key value drivers
• Analyze the cash needs of a business

Mastering Acquisitions and BuyoutsRoadmap to understanding the risks and rewards In the acquisition arena, successful companies work hard to develop and execute strategies that are achievable and that enhance value. They conduct disciplined due diligence. They pay close attention to legal and tax traps and opportunities. They negotiate within carefully crafted parameters. They empower their transition teams long before the closing. In short, successful buyers and sellers never lose sight of the endgame: to recognize, measure, and then create lasting incremental value.
Whether you seek to capture new product or regional markets, acquire scarce resources, cut costs—or to translate existing value into liquidity—this program can give you important insights and the broad cross-functional perspective that you need. The program is aimed at corporate owners, executives, and managers tasked with making tough deals happen. Program speakers have spent long careers planning for, identifying, structuring, valuing, negotiating, closing, and putting together acquisitions and buyouts. They will share with you their practical front-line experiences.
As the M&A world changes, so do these sessions. In fact, many who attend come back for a refresher session years later. Past attendees have commented on how much they enjoyed participating in the small-group “acquisition team” case study, in which they thought through what they would have done in a real-world M&A situation led by one of the program speakers—with a surprising outcome. During the case, you’ll evaluate an acquisition target, price and structure a deal, and formulate your negotiating approach, later comparing your results with what actually happened.
