Accounting and assurance standards – Related party transactions

Length: 3 h 30

New training for 2023-2024

Summary

Our corporate structures with management companies, companies under common control or interests in companies generate numerous related party transactions. These transactions are subject to the strict recognition rules of Section 3840 and involve several measurement issues.

Several pitfalls must be avoided, including the identification of related parties, transactions in the normal course of business and transactions outside the normal course of business, and finally, changes to Section 3856 Financial Instruments, which confuse the measurement basis and initial recognition.

For several years now, related party transactions have been the subject of recurring comments by professional inspection regarding recognition and presentation in financial statements.
