The requirements of stock-based compensation accounting as described in IFRS-2 and ASC-718 are particularly complex for share based payments because accountants are not used to underlying accounting concepts. To address this challenge, this course goes beyond a mere description of the technical requirements; it explains the underlying concepts and their rationale via practical hands-on examples. These examples help the participants grasp complex issues including but not limited to expected volatility, grant valuations, expected terms, performance conditions imposed on awards, forfeiture rates, grant modifications, mark-to-market adjustments, EPS and disclosures.
Course topics include:
A basic knowledge of accounting principles and corporate finance is highly recommended as a prerequisite for this course.
