cfaajay | U.S.GAAP does allow Proportionate consolidation for unincorporated entities ..such as in construction industry..but U.S.GAAP prefers equity method. |
thebkr777 | Does this not contradict the chart they gave us? "US: Equity method. IFRS Equity or Proportionate consolidation" |
SRI2010 | thebkr777, in my opinion, the second one is false because the IFRS doesnt explicity recommend the proportionate consolidation method. it is "either-or" |
davidt876 | "Both IFRS and U.S. GAAP require the equity method of accounting for joint ventures" - is what the notes just said |

I am using your study notes and I know of at least 5 other friends of mine who used it and passed the exam last Dec. Keep up your great work!
