The Regulatory Framework

The Advantages Of Adopting Ifrs® Accounting Standards Might Include:
(a) Application Of The International Standards Should Ensure That The Company's Financial
Statements Provide High-Quality, Transparent And Comparable Information. This Should Help
Investors, Lenders And Other Users Of The Financial Statements To Make Sound Economic
Decisions. If Potential Investors And Lenders Feel That They Can Trust Baxen's Financial
Statements, This Should Make It Easier For The Company To Raise Fresh Capital In The Form Of
Share Issues Or Borrowings.
(b) Furthermore, Adoption Of Ifrs Should Allow Baxen To Obtain A Listing On Stock Exchanges
Around The World, Most Of Which Now Require Listed Companies To Comply With International
Standards. This Would Also Provide New Opportunities For Raising Capital.
(c) Many Of The Foreign Companies With Which Baxen Trades Will Also Use Ifrs. This Should Help
Baxen To Compare Its Own Financial Statements With Theirs And Perhaps To Identify Foreign
Companies That Might Be Suitable Candidates As Prospective Subsidiaries. Baxen Would Also Be
Able To Compare Its Own Financial Statements Much More Easily With Those Of Its Competitors.
(d) Once Baxen Has Subsidiaries, It Will Need To Prepare Group Accounts. This Involves Combining
All Of The Financial Statements Of The Group Members Into A Single Set Of Consolidated
Financial Statements (See Chapter 18). This Task Will Be A Great Deal Easier (And Cheaper) If
All Of The Companies In The Group Are Applying The Same Financial Reporting Standards. There
Would Also Be Less Work For The Group's Auditors To Do, So That The Audit Fee Should Be
Lower.
(e) Within The Group, The Use Of Consistent Standards Would Make It Easier To Assess Each
Subsidiary's Performance And To Compare Subsidiaries With Each Other.
(f) Accounting Staff Working For The Baxen Group Would All Become Familiar With The
International Standards And Would Not Need Retraining If They Moved Around The Group From
One Company To Another. This Would Certainly Reduce Staff Training Costs.
