Popis: The growing use of eXtensible Business Reporting Language (XBRL) represents a fundamental change for financial information flows. In a number of countries XBRL has already been put to practical use, for instance through implementation within the financial processes of non-listed companies. This fictional case is designed to help identify the benefits of XBRL. In addition, it helps to create knowledge about the different strategies of XBRL implementation and to apply this knowledge when making investment decisions on accounting information processes.
