The IFRS Foundation today published Interim Release 1 to the IFRS
Taxonomy 2014 for the IFRS 14 Regulatory Deferral Account, which was
issued by the IASB on 30 January 2014.
The IFRS
Taxonomy 2014 is the XBRL representation of the IFRSs, including
International Accounting Standards (IASs), Interpretations, and the IFRS for
SME's, as issued by the IASB.
XBRL taxonomies are available for most of the major national financial
reporting standards around the world, and the IFRS Taxonomy is intended for use
by entities reporting in IFRS. By providing the IFRS Taxonomy, the IFRS
Foundation seeks to address the demand for an electronic standard to transmit
IFRS financial information.
IFRS Taxonomy Interim
Releases support consistent adoption and implementation of IFRS, by
providing taxonomy items for electronic reporting using the latest Standards
published by the IASB.
