Addressing Valuation, Impairment, and Audit Documentation Challenges
Intangible assets are among the most misunderstood and misapplied areas in financial reporting. From internally generated brands and software to goodwill and licensing rights, these assets require nuanced treatment based on their origin, use, and contribution to economic value.
Auditors are often faced with the challenge of verifying existence, accuracy, and valuation — made more complex by the nature of these assets and their susceptibility to impairment. Conventional procedures often fall short, and auditors need to apply professional judgment and creative audit techniques to get it right.
This interactive webinar will equip participants with practical knowledge on how to evaluate intangible assets during the audit, apply the relevant financial reporting standards, and document their work effectively. Real-life examples will help bring the principles to life, with a focus on issues commonly identified during quality reviews.
