Introduction:

Accounting and asset management are essential tasks for any organization. Assets are the fundamental resources that organizations utilize in production and to generate future profits. In this training course, we will discuss the managerial and accounting methods for these assets based on "International Financial Reporting Standards." This course will encompass all the standards related to accounting, management, and evaluation of assets, particularly within the context of transitioning from a cash basis to an accrual basis, which helps in achieving fair value for these assets. Participants will also be introduced to modern trends in managing, evaluating, and auditing fixed assets in light of risks and other international accounting standards for fixed assets. The course will also cover effective mechanisms for investing in finance lease agreements for fixed assets.
This training course is divided into two sections: "Fixed Asset Management and Accounting." The first section will cover performance management, evaluation, improvement, implementation of management plans, enabling management tools, controls, fixed asset policy, and strategy. Additionally, the managerial section will examine all the lifecycles of fixed assets and include decision-making techniques such as IRR and NPV in capital budgeting. The accounting section will leverage International Financial Reporting Standards, focusing on fair value measurement rules and capitalization rules for tangible and intangible assets. Participants will gain an understanding of various impairment reduction techniques, valuation, and accounting.
