id International Sales Agreements: An Annotated Drafting and Negotiating Guide, Second Edition By www.cch.ca Published On :: Thu, 14 May 2009 13:43:50 GMT Published: October 2008 It would be hard to find a more useful guide to international sales agreements. Compared to domestic transactions, the risks associated are greatly multiplied and it is a rare international sales agreement that can rely on minor variations of standard terms, as is so often the case in domestic agreements. Foreign laws, export/import and currency exchange controls, treaties, transit issues, inspection of goods, insurance, tariffs - all these and more must be taken into account in contract negotiations. For lawyers charged with drafting an international sales contract, this expanded and updated second edition is invaluable. Clause by clause, it clearly details the drafting process, commenting expertly on every issue likely to arise as it goes. Designed to cover every contingency, including definitions, Incoterms, price adjustments, documentation, labeling, delivery dates, limitation of liability, confidentiality, arbitration and antitrust issues, this book also covers relevant national circumstances in the commentary to each clause. Table of Contents: Contents of Sample Clauses Introduction Chapter 1: Preliminary Matters Chapter 2: Drafting the Agreement Chapter 3: The Goods Being Sold Chapter 4: Trade Terms Chapter 5: Price Chapter 6: Permits, Licenses and Certificates Chapter 7: Payment Chapter 8: Delivery Chapter 9: Transfer of Title and Risk Chapter 10: Bills of Lading and Other Documents for Carriage of Goods Chapter 11: Insurance Chapter 12: Inspection Chapter 13: Warranties Chapter 14: Force Majeure and Hardship Chapter 15: Termination and Penalty Clauses Chapter 16: Intellectual Property Chapter 17: Other Obligations of the Parties Chapter 18: Dispute Resolution Chapter 19: Governing Law Chapter 20: Language Chapter 21: Miscellaneous Provisions Appendix 1: The CISG Appendix 2: UNIDROIT Principles of International Commercial Contracts Appendix 3: The Principles of European Contract Law If you would like more details about this product, or would like to order a copy online, please click here.

id International Arbitration and Mediation: A Practical Guide By www.cch.ca Published On :: Mon, 18 Nov 2013 15:34:50 GMT Published: February 2010 Optimising the outcome of disputes connected with international business forms the subject matter of International Arbitration and Mediation: A Practical Guide. Rather than adopt an idealised approach of pursuing victories at any cost, the authors help parties predict the realistic consequences (and costs) of their decisions and provide a step-by-step guide to opportunities to influence the course of a dispute as it unfolds in its various stages. They discuss techniques for productively resolving disputes through negotiation, mediation, and arbitration, frequently illustrating critical steps through real-world examples drawn from past experiences. The book is intended as an easily accessible desktop resource for lawyers who regularly counsel businesses when negotiating international deals, and for those who represent the same clients in achieving a successful resolution when disputes emerge. The practical guidance includes: How to determine which dispute resolution clauses work best for different international contracts, and how to negotiate those clauses What preliminary steps parties should consider to preserve their rights when a dispute arises Whether and how to appoint counsel When and how to perform an early case assessment (ECA) How to organise and conduct international mediations and arbitration proceedings How to enforce (or set aside) arbitral awards Securing the benefit of additional protections available through investment treaties The text is divided into chapters that follow the life cycle of an international commercial dispute as seen through the eyes of the parties, from when they agree how to resolve disputes in their contracts to the endgame of enforcement. Additionally, the appendices include a number of model submissions for further reference. If you would like more details about this product, or would like to order a copy online, please click here.

id GAAS Guide, 2015 (with CD-ROM) (U.S.) By www.cch.ca Published On :: Fri, 19 Sep 2014 14:48:50 GMT Authors: Mark S. Beasley, Ph.D., CPA, and Joseph V. Carcello, Ph.D., CPA, CIA, CMA CCH's GAAS Guide describes the engagement standards, practices, and procedures in use today, including Statements on Auditing Standards (SASs) and their Interpretations, Statements on Standards for Attestation Engagements (SSAEs) and their Interpretations, and Statements on Standards on Accounting and Review Services (SSARS) and their Interpretations. The 2015 Edition of the GAAS Guide reflects the latest available professional standards. Most importantly, changes in auditing standards and the related Codification of Statements on Auditing Standards resulting from the Auditing Standards Board’s (ASB) Clarity and Convergence Project. This edition includes coverage of SAS-122 (essentially all of the AU-C sections) (Clarification and Recodification), issued in October 2011, SAS-123 (AU-C 200, AU-C 230, AU-C 260, AU-C 705, AU-C 720, AU 915, and AU-C 935) (Omnibus Statement on Auditing Standards — 2011), issued in October 2011, SAS-124 (AU-C 910) (Financial Statements Prepared in Accordance with a Financial Reporting Framework Generally Accepted in Another Country), issued in October 2011, SAS-125 (AU-C 905) (Alert that Restricts the Use of the Auditor’s Written Communication), issued in December 2011, SAS-126 (AU-C 570) (The Auditor’s Consideration of the Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern), issued in July 2012, and SAS-127 (AU-C 600 and AU-C 800) (Omnibus Statement on Auditing Standards—2013), issued in January 2013. SAS-122 is particularly noteworthy as it represents the culmination of the ASB’s efforts to clarify the auditing standards and to largely converge its standards with the standards of the International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board (IAASB). Designated by the new “AU-C” section numbering, the recodified, clarified standards numbers are the same as the equivalent ISA numbers for clarified SASs that are based on equivalent ISAs (AU-C section numbers for clarified SASs with no equivalent ISAs have been assigned new numbers). The GAAS Guide incorporates these new requirements throughout the affected auditing standards and includes coverage of AICPA pronouncements for the following standards: SAS-127 (AU-C 600 and AU-C 900) (Omnibus Statement on Auditing Standards—2013) SSAE-17 (AT 301) (Reporting on Compiled Prospective Financial Statements When the Practitioner’s Independence Is Impaired) SSARS-20 (Revised Applicability of Statements on Standards for Accounting and Review Services) All the exhibit materials in the book appear on the accompanying CD-ROM.

Carcello, Ph.D., CPA, CIA, CMA The GAAS Guide describes today's engagement standards, practices, and procedures in use today, including: Statements on Auditing Standards (SASs) and AU-C Sections, Statements on Standards for Attestation Engagements (SSAEs), Statements on Standards on Accounting and Review Services (SSARSs) and their relationship to the PCAOB's standards. The latest interpretations of all the standards are also included.

Each section begins with a list of authoritative pronouncements and an Overview. A Promulgated Procedures Checklist identifies the essential professional responsibilities that must be satisfied in each phase of an engagement followed by an Analysis and Application of Reporting Standards, which explains how each specific promulgated procedure should be applied. Throughout the book Risk Assessment Points, Engagement Strategies, Planning Aid Reminders, and Observations provide helpful, practical tips. Fraud Pointers alert practitioners to issues affecting auditor responsibility for fraud and fraud risks throughout the audit engagement. To keep CPAs abreast of potential changes affecting AICPA professional standards, this edition contains new overviews of outstanding exposure drafts, which highlight key elements of possible changes to existing professional standards.

SAS-122 is particularly noteworthy as it represents the culmination of the ASB’s efforts to clarify the auditing standards and to largely converge its standards with the standards of the International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board. As such, SAS-122 supersedes most of the existing auditing standards and recodifies the clarified and converged standards in one place (essentially similar to the design of SAS-1 many years ago). In addition, as part of its efforts, the ASB has issued these new standards using a new codification numbering sequence. We adopt this new numbering sequence in this year’s Guide. The 2013 Edition includes coverage of the following: SAS-125 (AU 905) (Alert that Restricts the Use of the Auditor’s Written Communication) SSAE-17 (AT 301) (Reporting on Compiled Prospective Financial Statements When the Practitioner’s Independence is Impaired) SSARS-20 (Revised Applicability of Statements on Standards for Accounting and Review Services) The book is organized to follow the arrangement of the AICPA's Professional Standards.

Full Article id Foreign Bank Account Reporting Compliance Guide, 2014 By www.cch.ca Published On :: Mon, 18 Jun 2012 09:35:09 GMT Previously called: FBAR Compliance Guide to Foreign Bank Account Reporting Compliance Guide. If one owns or has authority over a foreign financial account, including a bank account, brokerage account, mutual fund, unit trust or some other type of financial account, he or she may be required to make an annual report of the account to the Internal Revenue Service. Under the Bank Secrecy Act, each United States person must file a Report of Foreign Bank and Financial Accounts (FBAR) (Form TD F 90-22.1), if the person has a financial interest in or signature authority (or other authority that is comparable to signature authority) over one or more accounts in a foreign country and the aggregate value of all foreign financial accounts exceeds threshold amounts at any time during the calendar year. In addition, the Hiring Incentives to Restore Employment Act (HIRE Act), signed into law by President Obama in 2010, substantially incorporates the measures designed to stop tax evasion contained in the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) of 2009. Under FATCA, U.S. taxpayers with specified foreign financial assets that exceed certain thresholds must report those assets to the IRS on Form 8938, which will be attached to their federal income tax return. This reporting is in addition to the foreign bank account report, Form TDF 90-22.1 (FBAR). The Form 8938 reporting is applicable to all “specified persons” who are considered to hold an interest in a “specified foreign financial asset” which meets the “reporting thresholds.” In December 2011, the IRS issued temporary (TD 9567) and proposed (REG-130302-10) regulations which provide guidance on the requirement that certain foreign financial assets be reported to the IRS for tax years beginning after March 2010. This requirement comes from Section 6038D which was added to the Internal Revenue Code under the HIRE Act. The Foreign Bank Account Reporting Compliance Guide is an essential resource because substantial civil penalties may be imposed for non-wilful violations and for wilful violations criminal penalties and imprisonment may be imposed in addition to the civil penalties. This is an important new IRS compliance requirement with huge monetary civil penalties at stake as well as potential criminal consequences. It has ongoing compliance reporting requirements with enforcement teeth behind it and this publication provides the necessary guidance.
