Financial reporting for NLC
Description
Topic: Critically appraise the current regulation of financial reporting for non-listed companies in the UK and compare the approach with another country of your choice. Consider whether the costs imposed on preparers are balanced by the benefits received by users.
Guidance:
The costs and benefits of the UK reporting framework for unlisted companies should be compared with that for another country. It is recommended that students select a model which is substantially different from the UK.(e.g. Germany)(If US need to be aware that as there does not have much details about the framework for the non-listed company.) While some background description of the frameworks will be necessary, reminded that most of the available marks will be reserved for a comparison and evaluation of the two systems.
