The Knowledge Congress Has Scheduled a Live Teleconference & Webinar on FAS 109 & IAS 12 Explored

New York, NY, July 08, 2008 --(PR.com)-- The Knowledge Congress, the leading producer of regulatory focused teleconferences, announced today that it has scheduled a live teleconference and webinar on FAS 109 & IAS 12 Explored. This two-hour event is scheduled on Thursday, November 6th, 2008, at 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM (EST – New York).

The FASB, together with the IASB is working on a new regulation that would modify several income tax accounting rules. This would reconcile the distinctions between FAS 109 and IAS 12 resulting in improved accounting methods for income taxes of companies. An exposure draft is expected to be released in the second quarter of 2008. Companies are encouraged to take note of the amendments as they would serve as effective guidelines in the preparation of their financial statements. The Knowledge Congress has assembled a panel of distinguished experts to help make these policies clear to the organizations most impacted. The panel will present their findings, which include "best practice" panel, and a question-and-answer segment enabling the audience to interact directly with the faculty in a two-hour teleconference and webinar.

Shea Malcolm, Practice Fellow, Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)

Anne McGeachin, Senior Project Manager, International Accounting Standards Board (IASB)
