Synopsis:

Manual of Accounting - New UK GAAP forms part of the PwC Manual of Accounting series and addresses what is generally expected to be the last significant change in structure in UK Financial Reporting. In the first quarter of 2013 the Financial Reporting Council, after years of debate in the accountancy profession issued Financial Reporting Standards 100-102 which will largely replace the existing set of UK Financial Reporting Standards (29 Standards in force plus one for smaller companies).
