1 A Standard-Setters View Geoffrey Whittington

2 Do we need a new standard? The EFRAG paper illustrates the unresolved conceptual issues FASB convergence IAS 18 and 11 inconsistencies (requests for interpretation) Framework issues

3 The Asset/Liability Model Helps to focus recognition Earnings process does not necessarily conflict Danger of forgetting that revenue is a flow, not a balance sheet item
