FRAMEWORK of FINANCIAL
REPORTING
The IASB Framework
The IASB Framework sets out the concepts that
underlie the preparation and presentation of FSs for
external users.
• A conceptual framework (a statement of principles)
developed in 1989.
• Forms the foundation/cornerstone of IFRSs
The purpose of the IASB Framework
A basis for dealing with any accounting issues that arise
which are not covered by a specific accounting
standard.
FRAMEWORK of FINANCIAL REPORTING

REPORTING
■ HISTORICAL COST
■ CURRENT COST
■ NET REALISABLE VALUE
■ PRESENT VALUE
Case study:
Company A acquires a new machine in X4 at cost 50,000, useful life 10 years.
Company B acquires an identical one year-old machine in X5 at cost 48,000 and is has an
estimated useful life of 9 years.
Consider straight-line depreciation.
Compute the carrying amount of asset, for A and B, at the end of X5.
Debate advantages / disadvantages of historical cost.
FRAMEWORK of FINANCIAL REPORTING
Measurement of the elements in the FSs
Sunny Co owns a machine which it was purchased 4 years ago for 100,000 USD.
The accumulated depreciation on machine to date is 40,000 USD.
The machine could be sold to another manufacturer for 50,000 USD, but there
would be dismantling costs for 5,000 USD.
To replace the machine with a new one would cost 110,000 USD.
The cash inflows from existing machine are estimated to be 25,000 USD for next 2
years followed by 20,000 USD for remaining four years of machine’s life. The
relevant discount rate is 10%; discount factors are:
Year 1 --- 0.909
Year 2 --- 0.826
Year 3-6 inclusive --- 2.619 (annuity rate)
Calculate:
a. Historical cost
b. Net realizable value
c. Replacement cost (current cost)
d. Economic value (present value)
FRAMEWORK of FINANCIAL REPORTING
The purpose of the Conceptual Framework for
Financial Reporting is:
a. one—historical cost
b. one—fair value
c. two—historical cost and fair value
d. many—including historical cost, fair value, value in
use, estimated selling price less costs to complete
and sell, etc

Accounting estimates
Many items in the FS cannot be measured with precision but
require some estimation.
Estimates are used to implement the measurement aspects of
accounting policies.
Estimation involves judgment based on the latest available
information.
Useful lives and residual values of non-current assets
Depreciation methods
Warranty provisions
Provisions for bad debts and inventory obsolescence

ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND ERRORS
Errors are omissions from, and misstatements in, the financial

Which TWO of the following situations would NOT require a prior year adjustment per IAS

A
In last year's financial statements, inventories were understated by a material amount due
to system error
B
A company has changed its allowance for irrecoverable receivables from 10% of outstandin
g debt to everything over 120 days old
C
A new accounting standard has been issued that requires a company to change its accoun
ting policy but gives no guidance on the specific application of the change itself
D A company has chosen to value inventory using FIFO rather than AVCO as in previous periods
E
A company has decided to move from charging depreciation on the straight line basis to th
e reducing balance basis

Posh plc has the following units in inventory at the end of 20X9.
Units Cost per unit ($)
Raw materials 5,000 25
Work in progress 2,000 30
Finished goods 1,000 35
Finished items usually sell for $50 per unit. However, water damage caused
by improper storage of inventory will mean that 300 units of finished goods
will be sold at 60% of the normal selling price less costs to sell of $5 per
item. A further $5.50 / unit is still to be incurred to finish off the items of work
in progress.
In accordance with IAS 2 Inventories, at what amount should inventories be stated in the
statement of financial position of Posh plc as at the end of 20X9?

recorded as a NCA held for sale at the lower of the carrying value and the FV less costs to
sell. If the latter is lower, then an impairment loss arises and is shown in P&L.

TAXATION
IAS 12 TAXATION
The tax expense in the financial statements is made up
of two elements
1) Current tax – tax payable to authorities in relation to
current year activities, together with any under- or
over-provision from the previous year
2) Deferred tax – an application of the accruals concept.
■ PERMANENT DIFFERENCES
■ TEMPORARY DIFFERENCES
■ ACCOUNTING TREATMENT:
– INCREASE IN DEFERRED TAX:
■ Dr Income tax expense (SPL)
■ Cr Deferred tax (SPF)
– DECREASE IN DEFERRED TAX
■ Dr Deferred tax (SPF)
■ Cr Income tax expense (SPL)
IAS 12 TAXATION
■ F7 : Non current assets
Deferred tax is an application of the accruals concept. The provision for
deferred tax recognises the estimated future tax consequences of recognised
transactions and events.
Rules:
(1) Carrying amount > Tax base :

IAS 7 STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS
Advantages of statements of cash flow
Helps users make judgements on future cash flows
Indicates the relationship between profit and cash generated
Helps users check accuracy of previous assessments
Difficult to manipulate
Limitations of statements of cash flow
Based on historical information, so no predictive quality
Small scope for manipulation, e.g. delay payments at year-end
No indication of profitability, necessary for long-term survival
Interpretation of statements of cash flow
Cash generated from operations – indicates sustainability
Capital expenditure
Sources of finance
Net cash flow
