Describe in an appropriate level of detail the differences that resulted when you recasted your chosen financial statements
Below is the Daimler Benz (MB)’s 2019 Annual Report prepared under IFRS:
Daimler 2019 Annual Report (Links to an external site.)
Pick any two of the financial statements: the consolidated balance sheet (statement of financial position), the consolidated income statement (statement of income or statement of comprehensive income), or the statement of cash flows for MB.
Recast the two selected financial statements and present the statements following/in accordance with the US GAAP, presentation-wise, as accurately as you can (you do not need to restate any of the results for MB in this process — just work with the results as presented).
The recasted financial statements should be an Exhibit or Appendix to your paper.
Describe in an appropriate level of detail the differences that resulted when you recasted your chosen financial statements from the IFRS to US GAAP, supported with references from the readings in this module or outside references, where appropriate.
Liquidity, Solvency, Profitability, and Management Efficiency Ratios/Measures. You will have a total of eight ratios using the financial statements included in the Annual Reports for each of these two firms. It would be best to prepare two years of ratio results for each company. Include the basis of your calculations in an Excel file with separate labeled tabs (one labeled MB and the other labeled Ford) attached as part of your initial response. Then attach the final ratios you calculated for each company, side-by-side, into your initial posting response.
For each ratio you have chosen and calculated, compare and contrast the
results between these two firms. Most importantly, comment on how the
differences in the basis of preparation of the respective financial
statements, including the related accounting rules followed by each
company, might impact the comparison of those ratios between these two
firms. Hint: you will need to review the Footnotes to the Financial
Statements and the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies for both
MB and Ford to identify potential differences in the accounting
standards used by both companies.
