Energy & Resources Accounting for Emission Rights Introduction Accounting for greenhouse gas emissions remains a challenge, and market participants continue to wait for clear guidance from accounting standards setters. Formative efforts on the part of those standards setters have proven unsuccessful. The International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”) initially took on this task, and issued IFRIC 3, Emission Rights. Unfortunately, considerable pressure from both the business

Energy is a key driver for economic growth, constituting about 20% of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP). In 2010, the total primary energy supply was 3127.7 petajoules. The main energy sources of commercial energy supply were crude oil, which accounted 44.7% and natural gas which accounted 41.6%. These sources remain major ones. However, the share of coal and coke increased from 9.1% in 2005 to 11.2 % in these years and only 2.5% came from the non-fossil source of hydro power in 2010. From the

EIGRP Vs OSPF EIGRP - Is an advanced distance-vector routing protocol, with optimizations to minimize both the unstable route incurred after topology changes, as well as the use of bandwidth and processing power in the router. Routers supporting EIGRP will automatically redistribute route information to IGRP neighbors by converting the 32 bit EIGRP metric to the 24 bit IGRP metric. Most of the routing optimizations are based on the Diffusing Update Algorithm (DUAL) work from SRI, which guarantees
