ABSTRACT:
An 11 page paper discussing the application of I.A.S.-1, the International Accounting Standard number 1. This standard defines the framework and responsibilities organizations have for presenting their financial statements, having as its goal uniformity across time, within organizations and across industries. I.A.S.-1 ensures uniformity in financial reporting so that investors can make sense of any organization's true financial condition. Requirements of the I.A.S.-1 standard do not prevent organizations from furnishing additional information, but rather constitutes minimum requirements for transparent reporting. The paper provides several examples of how organizations meet those minimum standards and in the case of Southwest Airlines, how they choose to exceed them. Bibliography lists 9 sources.
