    Study Notes

    Comprehensive Income

    • Reports transactions with owners.
    • Reports net income over the entity's performance.
    • Combines income from continuing operations with income from discontinued operations.
    • Can be presented in a separate statement of comprehensive income, a single statement of comprehensive income, the notes to the financial statements, or in a statement of changes in equity.

    Other Comprehensive Income

    • Not an acceptable reporting option for OCI: reporting it in a separate statement of changes in equity.
    • Items of comprehensive income are reported net of related income tax effects, in total and individually.
    • Reclassification adjustments are used to avoid double counting of items.

    Components of Other Comprehensive Income

    • Included in OCI:

      • Unrealized gain on derivative contract designated as a cash flow hedge.
      • Loss from translating the financial statements of a foreign operation.
      • Actuarial gain on a defined benefit plan.

    • Excluded from OCI:

      • Dividend paid to shareholders.
      • Unrealized gain on financial assets held for trading.
      • Loss on derivative designated as a cash flow hedge.
      • Treasury shares at cost.
      • Change in revaluation surplus.

    Presentation of Other Comprehensive Income

    • The preferred option for displaying other comprehensive income is a continuation from net income in the income statement or a separate statement that begins with net income.

    Notes to Financial Statements

    • The notes are normally presented in the following order:
      • Statement of compliance with PFRS.
      • Summary of significant accounting policies used.
      • Supporting information or computation for line items presented in the financial statements.
      • Other disclosures, such as contingent liabilities, unrecognized contractual commitments, and nonfinancial disclosures.

    Statement of Changes in Equity

    • The effect of a change in accounting policy and the correction of a prior period error is presented separately for each component of equity.
    • The statement of changes in retained earnings does not display other comprehensive income.
    • Prior period error is included in retained earnings.
    • Prior period errors are included in the statement of retained earnings before net income.

    Income Statement

    • The income statement does not focus on the financial position of the entity.
    • The income statement aids in estimating the amount, timing, and uncertainty of future cash flows.
    • Income statement information is used to help assess the risk and uncertainty of achieving future cash flows.
    • Income determination is arrived at by using a transaction approach.
    • Not an acceptable reporting option for OCI: reporting it in a separate statement of changes in equity.

    Gains and Losses

    • Gains are increases in equity from peripheral transactions.
    • Gains are not inflows from selling a product to a customer.
    • Gains are not increases in equity resulting from transfers of assets to the entity from owners.
    • Change in equity from nonowner sources is comprehensive income rather than a gain or loss.

    • Related parties are all of the following except two joint venturers simply because they share joint control over a joint venture.

    • A related party transaction is a transfer between related parties, regardless of whether a price is charged.

    • Unrelated parties include providers of finance in the normal course of business, government agencies, and single customers with a significant volume of business.

    • Related party transactions include:

      • A venturer selling goods to the joint venture.
      • Selling a car to the uncle of the entity's finance director.
      • Selling goods to another entity owned by the daughter of the managing director.
      • Transferring goods from inventory to a subsidiary.
      • Selling an entity car to the wife of the managing director.
      • Selling an asset to an associate.

    • Unrelated party transitions:

      • Taking out a large bank loan.

    • Minimum disclosures about related party transactions do not include the nature of the relationship.

    • Minimum disclosures about related party transactions include:

      • The amount of the transaction.
      • Amount of outstanding balance.
      • Allowance for doubtful accounts related to the outstanding balance.

    Disclosure Principles

    • IFRS requires specific note disclosures; the notes are required to be clear, simple to understand, and nontechnical in nature. IFRS does not require a maturity analysis for receivables.
    • The standard of adequate disclosure is best described by disclosing enough information so that a prospective investor can make a wise decision.
    • The full disclosure principle is demonstrated by the use of supplementary information presenting the effects of changing prices.
    • An inventory accounting policy that should be disclosed in a summary of significant accounting policies is the method used for pricing inventory.
    • Methods of disclosing relevant information include supporting schedules, parenthetical explanations, and cross-references.
