The Philippine Securities and Exchange Commission En Banc in its meeting on December 3, 2009 also resolved to adopt the PFRS for SMEs as part of its rules and regulations. DEFINITION OF SMEs The International Accounting Standards Board defines small and medium-sized entities or SMEs as entities that: a. Do not have public accountability, and b, Publish general purpose financial statements for external users. Public accountability An entity has public accountability if: a. The debt or equity instruments of the entity are traded in a public market. b. The entity is in the process of issuing debt or equit instruments for trading in public market, for example, domestic or foreign stock exchange, over-the-countel | market, local and regional market. ¢. Theentity holds assets in fiduciary capacity for a broad group of outsiders as one of its primary businesses. it uni i ‘i ities Banks, credit unions, insurance companies, securitt 4 dealers or brokers, pension funds, mutual funds 4 “investment banks would meet this second criterion. 724 Securities traded in a public market The IASB concluded that, regardless of size, entities whose securities are traded in a public market should follow full IFRS and not IFRS for SMEs. An entity's decision to enter a public capital market makes it publicly accountable. : The entity must provide the outside debt and equity investors with a “broader range" of financial information than may be _needed by users that obtain capital only from private sources. This public accountability of listed entities is recognized by the government by establishing laws and regulations that deal with market regulation and disclosures to investors. ‘inancial institutions primary busjness for financial institutions is to hold and manage financial resources entrusted to them by a broad group of clients and customers who are not involved in the management of the entities. As such, financial institutions are "publicly accountable” because the entities act in a fiduciary capacity. Accordingly, financial institutions must follow full IFRS and not IFRS for SMEs. SME under Philippine jurisdiction The IASB's definition of SMEs does not include size criteria for determining what is a small and medium-sized entity because it is not feasible to develop size test that would be applicable and long-lasting in numerous countries. Under Philippine jurisdiction, the definition of small and medjum-sized entity (SME) includes size criteria in terms of total assets and total liabilities. The definition of SME is set forth in Philippine.Securitiés gad Exchange Commission En Banc Resolution dated August 725 : Definition of SME by SEC The Philippine Securities and Exchange Commission define, SME as an entity: a, With total assets between P3,000,000 and P350,000,000, OR with total liabilities between P3,000,000 and P250,000,000. b.

Thus, if the first-time adopter presents the first annual financial statements in conformity with IFRS for SMEs on December 31, 2021 on a comparative basis, the date of transition to IFRS for SMEs is January 1, 2020.

More often than not, accounting records are maintained on & cash basis. At the end of the accounting period, adjustments are made for accruals and prepayments in order to convert the cash basis records to accrual records.

So the main problem in the formula is the computation of sales on account. ‘The substance of the formula is the reconstruction of the accounts and notes receivable because the total accounts and notes receivable would represent the total sales on account. Thus, the approach is to add back all items that decreased trade receivables to the ending balance of accounts receivable and notes > receivable. The items that decreased. receivables normally include: Collections from customers : Sales. returns, allowances. and discounts Accounts and notes receivable written off Notes receivable discounted — when the notes receivable “ account is credited upon discounting. The beginning balances of accounts receivable and notes receivable are deducted: because these items pertain to the preceding year and constitute sales-of the prior year and that they might have been collected during the current year or some may be the subject of returns, allowances and discounts. 383 Computation of purchases Cash purchases xx Purchases on account: "Trade accounts and notes payable, end xx Paymentof trade accounts and notes payable xx Purchases returns, discounts, and allowances xx Total. ue e & Less: Trade accounts and notes payable, beginning xx xx xx ‘Total purchases — accrual basis Normally, the data pertaining to cash purchases and payments of trade payables are available from the records.
