To aid this theory, numerous worked examples and illustrative model accounts are included to help preparers understand how these changes should be implemented.Practitioners and preparers of accounts need to be fully versed in the changes to accounting practice and the stumbling blocks to avoid under the new rules. Each chapter contains a 'Pitfalls to avoid' section as well as a 'Chapter summary' to help preparers to understand the key differences.
