Summary
IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards) is an International Accounting Standard used by companies in the world on an international scale. As one of the G-20 members, must follow the agreement to carry out IFRS Convergence. IFRS convergence itself aims to improvise on corporate financial information's quality, especially companies listed on the Stock Exchange. Based on PSAK 68, the Financial Statements use valuations based on Fair Value. Using Fair Value in valuation here means that if there is no active market value, it must conduct self-assessment (competence required) or use the services of an appraiser. This results in a managers' expectation in the face of uncertainty are to apply conservative accounting principles. Accounting conservatism recognizes a decrease in assets even though the event has not yet been realized, but if there is an increase in unrealized assets, it cannot be identified
