Most obvious is the continuing adoption of IFRS worldwide. Many territories have been using IFRS for some years, and more are planning to come on stream from 2012. For the latest information on countries’ transition to IFRS, visit pwc.com/usifrs and see ‘Interactive IFRS adoption by country map’. An important recent development is the extent to which IFRS is affected by politics. The issues with Greek debt, the problems in the banking sector and the attempts of politicians to resolve these questions have resulted in pressure on standard-setters to amend their standards, primarily those on financial instruments. This pressure is unlikely to disappear, at least in the short term. The IASB is working hard to respond to this; we can therefore expect a continued stream of changes to the standards in the next few months and years. 2 Accounting principles and applicability of IFRS The IASB has the authority to set IFRSs and to approve interpretations of those standards. IFRSs are intended to be applied by profit-orientated entities. These entities’ financial statements give information about performance, position and cash flow that is useful to a range of users in making financial decisions. These users include shareholders, creditors, employees and the general public. A complete set of financial statements includes a: • balance sheet (statement of financial position); • statement of comprehensive income; • statement of cash flows; • a description of accounting policies; and • notes to the financial statesments. Notes to the financial statements. The concepts underlying accounting practices under IFRS are set out in the IASB’s ‘Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting’ issued in September 2010 (the Framework). It supersedes the ‘Framework for the preparation and presentation of financial statements’ (the Framework (1989)). IFRS pocket guide 2011 1 Accounting rules and principles 3 First-time adoption of IFRS – IFRS 1 An entity moving from national GAAP to IFRS should apply the requirements of IFRS 1. It applies to an entity’s first IFRS financial statements and the interim reports presented under IAS 34, ‘Interim financial reporting’, that are part of that period. The basic requirement is for full retrospective application of all IFRSs effective at the reporting date. However, there are a number of optional exemptions and mandatory exceptions to the requirement for retrospective application. The exemptions cover standards for which the IASB considers that retrospective application could prove too difficult or could result in a cost likely to exceed any benefits to users. The exemptions are optional. Any, all or none of the exemptions may be applied. The optional exemptions relate to: • business combinations; • deemed cost; • employee benefits; • cumulative translation differences; • compound financial instruments; • assets and liabilities of subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures; • designation of previously recognised financial instruments; • share-based payment transactions; • fair value measurement of financial assets or financial liabilities at initial recognition; • insurance contracts; • decommissioning liabilities included in the cost of property, plant and equipment; • leases; • service concession arrangements; • borrowing costs; • investments in subsidiaries, jointly controlled entities and associates; • transfers of assets from customer; • extinguishing financial liabilities with equity instruments; and • severe hyperinflation. The exceptions cover areas in which retrospective application of the IFRS requirements is considered inappropriate. The following exceptions are mandatory, not optional: 2 IFRS pocket guide 2011 Accounting rules and principles • hedge accounting; • estimates; and • non-controlling interests. Comparative information is prepared and presented on the basis of IFRS. Almost all adjustments arising from the first-time application of IFRS are against opening retained earnings of the first period that is presented on an IFRS basis. Certain reconciliations from previous GAAP to IFRS are also required. 4 Presentation of financial statements – IAS 1 The objective of financial statements is to provide information that is useful in making economic decisions. IAS 1’s objective is to ensure comparability of presentation of that information with the entity’s financial statements of previous periods and with the financial statements of other entities. Financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis unless management intends either to liquidate the entity or to cease trading, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. Management prepares its financial statements, except for cash flow information, under the accrual basis of accounting. There is no prescribed format for the financial statements. However, there are minimum disclosures to be made in the primary statements and the notes. The implementation guidance to IAS 1 contains illustrative examples of acceptable formats. Financial statements disclose corresponding information for the preceding period (comparatives) unless a standard or interpretation permits or requires otherwise. Statement of financial position (balance sheet) The statement of financial position presents an entity’s financial position at a specific point in time. Subject to meeting certain minimum presentation and disclosure requirements, management may use its judgement regarding the form of presentation, such as whether to use a vertical or a horizontal format, which sub-classifications to present and which information to disclose in the primary statement or in the notes. IFRS pocket guide 2011 3 Accounting rules and principles The following items, as a minimum, are presented on the face of the balance sheet: • Assets – property, plant and equipment; investment property; intangible assets; financial assets; investments accounted for using the equity method; biological assets; deferred tax assets; current tax assets; inventories; trade and other receivables; and cash and cash equivalents. • Equity – issued capital and reserves attributable to the parent’s owners; and non-controlling interest. • Liabilities – deferred tax liabilities; current tax liabilities; financial liabilities; provisions; and trade and other payables. • Assets and liabilities held for sale – the total of assets classified as held for sale and assets included in disposal groups classified as held for sale; and liabilities included in disposal groups classified as held for sale in accordance with IFRS 5, ‘Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations’. Current and non-current assets and current and non-current liabilities

This gap was noted by the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) in its 2000 report to the IASC – giving the IASB extra motivation for solving the difficulties in this area. IFRS 2 has been developed and designed to take a leadership position in what has historically been a difficult area for standard setters. Several standard-setting bodies around the world are expected to follow the IASB’s lead. The IASB has published 13 examples in the Implementation Guidance of IFRS 2. The matters addressed in this book are intended to supplement the IASB’s own guidance. Large as this book may seem, it does not address all fact patterns. Moreover, the guidance is subject to change as new IFRS are issued or as the IFRIC issues interpretations of IFRS 2. You are encouraged to consult a Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu professional regarding your specific issues and questions.

Paragraphs in bold type indicate the main principles.) Objective The objective of this Standard is to ensure that appropriate recognition criteria and measurement bases are applied to provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets and that sufficient information is disclosed in the notes to enable users to understand their nature, timing and amount. Scope 1 This Standard shall be applied by all entities in accounting for provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets, except: (a) those resulting from executory contracts, except where the contract is onerous; and (b) [Refer Appendix 1] (c) those covered by another Standard. 2 This Standard does not apply to financial instruments (including guarantees) that are within the scope of Ind AS 109, Financial Instruments. 3 Executory contracts are contracts under which neither party has performed any of its obligations or both parties have partially performed their obligations to an equal extent. This Standard does not apply to executory contracts unless they are onerous. 4. [Refer Appendix 1] # This Ind AS was notified vide G.S.R. 111(E) dated 16th February, 2015 and was amended vide Notification No. G.S.R. 365(E) dated 30th March, 2016 and G.S.R. 310(E) dated 28th March, 2018. 5 1When another Standard deals with a specific type of provision, contingent liability or contingent asset, an entity applies that Standard instead of this Standard. For example, some types of provisions are addressed in Standards on: (a) Omitted*; (b) income taxes (see Ind AS 12, Income Taxes); (c) leases (see Ind AS 17, Leases).

The Board concluded that no further amendments to IFRS 2 are needed. It felt the main issues that have arisen in practice have been addressed and there are no significant financial reporting problems to address through changing the standard. However, it did acknowledge that a key source of complexity is the variety and complexity of terms and conditions included in share-based payment arrangements, which cannot be solved through amendments to the standard.

  • U.S. GAAP Vs. IFRS: Long-Lived Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations
    U.S. GAAP vs. IFRS: Long-lived assets held for sale and discontinued operations Prepared by: Richard Stuart, Partner, National Professional Standards Group, RSM US LLP [email protected], +1 203 905 5027 July 2020 Introduction Currently, more than 120 countries require or permit the use of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), with a significant number of countries requiring IFRS (or some form of IFRS) by public entities (as defined by those specific countries). Of those countries that do not require use of IFRS by public entities, perhaps the most significant is the U.S. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) requires domestic registrants to apply U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), while foreign private issuers are allowed to use IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (which is the IFRS focused on in this comparison). While the SEC continues to discuss the possibility of allowing domestic registrants to provide supplemental financial information based on IFRS (with a reconciliation to U.S. GAAP), there does not appear to be a specified timeline for moving forward with that possibility. Although the SEC currently has no plans to permit the use of IFRS by domestic registrants, IFRS remains relevant to these entities, as well as private companies in the U.S., given the continued expansion of IFRS use across the globe. For example, many U.S. companies are part of multinational entities for which financial statements are prepared in accordance with IFRS, or may wish to compare themselves to such entities. Alternatively, a U.S. company’s business goals might include international expansion through organic growth or acquisitions.

  • How Should Companies Assess COVID-19 Events After the Reporting Date?
    How should companies assess COVID-19 events after the reporting date? 31 March 2020 What’s the issue? The COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic has evolved rapidly in 2020 and it impacts how companies evaluate and disclose events after the reporting date (‘subsequent events’). Depending on a company’s reporting date, the impacts of the COVID-19 outbreak could be adjusting or non-adjusting events. Under IAS 10 Events After the Reporting Period, events, both favourable and unfavourable, that occur between the reporting date and the date when the financial statements are authorised for issue require disclosure or possibly affect recognition and measurement in the financial statements.
