Abstract

International Accounting Standard (IAS) 3, Consolidated Financial Statements, was issued in 1976. It dealt with the presentation of consolidated financial statements and established a standard for the use of the equity method for investments in associates. IAS 3 had considerable influence in many parts of the world. In particular it was used in the development of the Seventh Directive on Consolidated Accounts. IAS 3 was also used by a number of EU Member States in their implementation of the Seventh Directive.
