Q. 2 (a)
ANS:
Awais Limited consider the following point while complying with IAS 1
IAS 1 requires disclosure of the assumptions concerning the future, and other major sources of
estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting period, that have a significant risk of causing a
material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year. For
those assets and liabilities, the proposed disclosures include details of:
Determining the carrying amounts of some assets and liabilities requires estimation of the effects of
uncertain future events on those assets and liabilities at the end of the reporting period. For example, in
the absence of recently observed market prices used to measure the following assets and liabilities,
future oriented estimates are necessary to measure the recoverable amount of classes of property,
plant and equipment, the effect of technological obsolescence of inventories, provisions subject to the
future outcome of litigation in progress, and long-term employee benefit liabilities such as pension
obligations. These estimates involve assumptions about items such as the risk adjustment to cash flows
or discount rates used, future changes in salaries and future changes in prices affecting other costs. No
matter how diligently an entity estimates the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities subject to
significant estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting period, the reporting of point estimates in
the statement of financial position cannot provide information about the estimation uncertainties
involved in measuring those assets and liabilities and the implications of those uncertainties for the
period’s profit or loss.
The Framework states that ‘The economic decisions that are made by users of financial statements
require an evaluation of the ability of an entity to generate cash and cash equivalents and of the timing
and certainty of their generation.’ The Board decided that disclosure of information about assumptions
and other major sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting period enhances the
relevance, reliability and understandability of the information reported in financial statements. These
assumptions and other sources of estimation uncertainty relate to estimates that require management’s
most difficult, subjective or complex judgements.
The exposure draft of 2002 proposed the disclosure of some ‘sources of measurement uncertainty’. In
the light of comments received that the purpose of this disclosure was unclear, the Board decided:
(a) to amend the subject of that disclosure to ‘sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the
reporting period’; and
(b) to clarify in the revised Standard that the disclosure does not apply to assets and liabilities
measured at fair value based on recently observed market prices.
IAS 1 does not prescribe the particular form or detail of the disclosures. Circumstances differ from entity
to entity, and the nature of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting period has many facets.
IAS 1 limits the scope of the disclosures to items that have a significant risk of causing a material
adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year. The longer the
future period to which the disclosures relate, the greater the range of items that would qualify for
disclosure, and the less specific are the disclosures that could be made about particular assets or
liabilities. A period longer than the next financial year might obscure the most relevant information with
other disclosures.

Net cash from operating activities, which is the cash generated from operations, less interest payments
and tax paid on profits. Cash flows from operating activities are primarily derived from the principal
revenue-producing activities of the entity. Therefore, they generally result from the transactions and
other events that enter into the determination of profit or loss.
Cash flows from investing activities might also include cash received from investments, such as interest
or dividends received.
The separate disclosure of cash flows arising from investing activities is important because the cash
flows represent the extent to which expenditures have been made for resources intended to generate
future income and cash flows.
A statement of cash flows reports the change in the amount of cash and cash equivalents held by the
entity during the financial period.
Revenue arising from the sale of goods should be recognized when all of the following criteria have been
satisfied: [IAS 18]
• the seller has transferred to the buyer the significant risks and rewards of ownership
• the seller retains neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated
with ownership nor effective control over the goods sold
• it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the seller,
and
• the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably

Q. 5
ANS.
Difference between GAAP and IFRS
There are different types of accounting standards that are followed around the globe. The most
commonly used accounting standards are International Financial Reporting Standards or IFRS and
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles or GAAP.
IFRS refers to the international financial reporting standards that are followed globally and includes
instructions on how certain transactions should be reported in financial statements. IFRS is issued by the
International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).
GAAP refers to a common set of accounting standards and procedures that a company must follow at
the time of preparation of financial statements.

Valuation of Fixed Assets

Cost of Development
Development costs under IFRS can be Development costs cannot be capitalised in
capitalised, provided certain conditions are GAAP, it is always treated as an expense
met
The first approach to solving this problem using SAP ERP products is simply to create additional general
ledger accounts that only appear on one version of the financials. A company running U.S. GAAP as its
primary standard might create two additional accounts to handle IFRS adjustments for the revaluation
of assets. If an asset has appreciated in value, a debit to an IFRS-specific asset account and a credit to a
corresponding IFRS-specific income account would occur. The company can produce reports that
conform to both standards by designing two different versions of the financial statements, with one
including the IFRS accounts and another excluding them.
Another SAP option is a multi-ledger approach. In this case, a company runs two or more parallel
versions of its general ledger, and users can designate each transaction as belonging to a particular
ledger. If neither ledger is designated, transactions are recorded in both places. Recording transactions
in both places will be correct most of the time, but when differences between GAAP and IFRS crop up, a
transaction might only post to one ledger or appear differently across the two sets of accounts.
For the asset revaluation example, the GAAP ledger would not require any entry, as GAAP does not
recognize increases in the market value of fixed assets. However, the IFRS ledger would include a debit
to the asset account and a credit to income.
A company using the multi-ledger approach may choose to use the same financial statement format for
GAAP and IFRS statements and would merely need to designate which ledger to use for the report.
The IASC Board promulgated a substantial body of Standards, Interpretations, a Conceptual Framework,
and other guidance that was adopted directly by many companies and that was looked to by many
national accounting standard-setters in developing national accounting standards.
The Strategy Working Party published its Report, in the form of a Discussion Paper, in December 1998.
After soliciting comments, the Working Party published its Final Recommendations in November 1999.
The IASC Board approved the proposals unanimously in December 1999, and the IASC member bodies
did the same in May 2000. A new IASB Constitution took effect from 1 July 2000. The standards-setting
body was renamed the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). It would operate under a new
International Accounting Standards Committee Foundation (IASCF, now the IFRS Foundation).
IASB members are responsible for the development and publication of IFRS Accounting Standards,
including the IFRS for SMEs Accounting Standard. The IASB is also responsible for approving
Interpretations of IFRS Accounting Standards as developed by the IFRS Interpretations Committee
(formerly IFRIC).
Members are appointed by the Trustees of the IFRS Foundation through an open and rigorous process
that includes advertising vacancies and consulting relevant organizations.
