We use job cost accounting software to track the costs by project. The costs are posted from the JC system to an asset account in the GL called "Work in Progress". When the job is complete, we move the costs from the WIP account to a capitalization account called "Completed Projects". This account contains subsidiary accounts for each project. Once the project is completed and we begin leasing and operating it, we can start depreciating the property.

International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) are a set of accounting standards developed by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) that is becoming the global standard for the preparation of public company financial statements.IFRS is particularly beneficial to large companies that have subsidiaries in different countries. Adopting a single set of global standards simplifies financial reporting, allowing management to use one reporting framework across the whole group. Assessing IFRS Adoption:In late 2012, the IFRS Foundation began working on a comprehensive pro- ject to assess progress toward the goal of global accounting standards, directed by this author. The project has three related objectives:· To develop a central source of information to chart jurisdictional progress toward global adoption of a single set of financial reporting standards· To respond to assertions that many national variations of IFRS exist around the world· To identify how the IFRS Foundation can help countries progress on their path to adoption of IFRS.orGuidelines and rules set by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) that companies and organizations can follow when compiling financial statements. The creation of international standards allows investors, organizations and governments to compare the IFRS-supported financial statements with greater ease. Over 100 countries currently require or permit companies to comply with IFRS standards. The International Financial Reporting Standards were previously called the International Accounting Standards (IAS). Organizations in the United States are required to use the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP).

Why is it that recording of business transaction is very crucial in the progress and advancement of an organization yet most managers and financial officers feel reluctant to do that.?
You would have to ask them for the specific reason, but one would believe it is because management and officers don't care or don't like the effect on the financial statements. Perhaps booking a journal entry to record a large transaction will have a negative impact on earnings and therefore will affect compensation, etc. Often such resistance is given a valid reason, you just may not know it, or agree with it. Without a little more detail, that's about as specific as I can get.
