1 IFRS for SMEs The Little GAAP we ve been waiting for?
2 Getting Up On My Soapbox!! Opportunity for CPAs to take back their profession Regulatory overload has scared many from the profession, or at least financial statement work The users of the small business financial statements have a hard time keeping up with the complexity of US GAAP, leading to misunderstandings FASB has become irrelevant to many if not most CPAs We have become a profession of rules, rather than principles and professional judgment Mark Brechbill, Certified Public Accountants
3 Why Does This Apply To Me? May 18, 2008 Amelia Island, FL AICPA Governing Council recognized IASB as a standard-setter under Rules 202 and 203 of the AICPA Code of Conduct IFRS becomes GAAP (although as it relates to international accounting and reporting principles) There does not appear to be any prohibition against the use of IFRS or IFRS for SMEs in financial statements prepared by US companies for international distribution, even if they are never distributed internationally and are only used domestically. Now that IFRS for SMEs is GAAP, it opens up reporting for smaller companies to a simpler method of accounting and reporting that will still satisfy the banks and others that require GAAP over OCBOA Mark Brechbill, Certified Public Accountants
4 Why Do I Care? Principles based, not Rules based Qualitative, not Quantitative The complete set of standards is 230 pages long, from Preface through Glossary Does not rely on other authoritative sources (self contained) Current Codification is over 25,000 pages Full IFRS is about 3,000 pages IFRS for SMEs objective is to provide information That is useful for economic decision-making By a broad range of users Who are not in a position to demand reports tailored to meet their particular information needs Mark Brechbill, Certified Public Accountants
5 What is a SME?
6 Small and Medium-sized Entities Do not have public accountability Its debt and equity instruments are not traded in a public market It s not in the process of issuing such instruments for trading in a public market It does not hold assets in a fiduciary capacity for a broad group of outsiders as one of its primary businesses such as Banks, credit unions and insurance companies Securities broker/dealers, mutual funds and investment banks Do publish general purpose financial statements for external users such as Owners not involved in managing the business Existing and potential creditors Credit rating agencies Mark Brechbill, Certified Public Accountants
7 IFRS for SMEs is Based on Concepts and Pervasive Principles Qualitative Characteristics: Understandability Presented in a way that makes it comprehensible by users who have a reasonable knowledge of business and accounting and a willingness to study the information with reasonable diligence Does not allow relevant info to be omitted on grounds it might be too hard to understand Relevance to decision-making needs of users Relevant when capable of influencing the economic decisions of users Materiality Reliability (Faithful Representation) Free from material error and bias and represents faithfully that which it purports to represent or could reasonably be expected to represent Substance over form Transactions and other events should be accounted for and presented in accordance with their substance and not merely their legal form Mark Brechbill, Certified Public Accountants
8 IFRS for SMEs is Based on Concepts and Pervasive Principles (Continued) Qualitative Characteristics (Continued): Prudence Prudence is conservatism not biased towards understatement of assets or income, nor overstatement of liabilities or expenses Completeness Complete within the bounds of materiality and cost Comparability Over time and also between entities Timeliness Providing the information within the decision time frame Management may need to balance the merits of timely reporting vs. reliable information within the users needs to make decisions Balance between benefit and cost Substantially a judgmental process Mark Brechbill, Certified Public Accountants
9 Relevance vs. Timeliness Mark Brechbill, Certified Public Accountants
10 IFRS for SMEs is Based on Concepts and Pervasive Principles (Continued) Financial Position (Balance Sheet) Relationship of assets, liabilities and equity as of a specific date Asset is a resource controlled by the entity as a result of past events and from which future economic benefits are expected to flow to the entity Right of ownership is not essential, but rather who controls the benefits that are expected to come from the asset Liability is a present obligation of the entity arising from past events, the settlement of which is expected to result in an outflow from the entity of resources embodying economic benefits May be a legal obligation or Constructive obligation Established pattern of past practice, published policy, or current statement that the entity will accept responsibility Creates valid expectation on the part of other parties that it will discharge those responsibilities Equity is what is left Mark Brechbill, Certified Public Accountants
11 IFRS for SMEs is Based on Concepts and Pervasive Principles (Continued) Performance (Income Statement) Relationship of income and expenses during a reporting period Can prepare a single financial statement (statement of comprehensive income) or two (an income statement and a statement of comprehensive income) If you don t have any items of comprehensive income you can prepare one statement and the only items of comprehensive income for IFRS for SMEs are: Foreign currency gains and losses Actuarial gains and losses Changes in fair value of hedging instruments The recognition of income and expenses results directly from the recognition and measurement of assets and liabilities Income Revenue Gains Expenses Expenses that arise in the ordinary course of business Losses Its must be probable that the benefit will flow to the entity Probability is more-likely-than-not (greater that 50%) Probability for US GAAP is 80% or more in this case Mark Brechbill, Certified Public Accountants
12 IFRS for SMEs is Based on Concepts and Pervasive Principles (Continued) Measurement of Assets, Liabilities, Income and Expenses Historical cost Amortized historical cost is the historical cost of an asset or liability plus or minus that portion of its historical cost previously recognized as expense or income IFRS for SMEs is all cost based with a few exceptions Publicly traded equity securities Derivatives, CMOs, etc Investments in associates Investment property (although with an option to convert to historical cost) Agricultural assets Fair value Impairment
13 IFRS for SMEs is Based on Concepts and Pervasive Principles (Continued) Pervasive Recognition and Measurement Principles IFRS for SMEs generally derived from IASB s Framework for the Preparation and Presentation of Financial Statements and from full IFRS But, it does not refer back to full IFRS, nor does it require or allow that full IFRS be used If IFRS for SMEs does not address the transaction, management should use its judgment to develop a policy that results in information that is Relevant Reliable (a Faithful Representation) In making that judgment, management is encouraged to look first to similar transactions within IFRS for SMEs Then to the Concepts and Pervasive Principles outlined here Management may look to full IFRS for guidance, but is not required to US GAAP or any other accounting literature is not authoritative Mark Brechbill, Certified Public Accountants
14 IFRS for SMEs is Based on Concepts and Pervasive Principles (Continued) Recognition in the Financial Statements Contingent assets Not recognized unless the flow of future economic benefits to the entity is virtually certain Contingent liabilities Either a possible but uncertain obligation or a present obligation that is not recognized because it fails to meet one or both of the following conditions It is probable that the entity will be required to transfer resources embodying economic benefits in settlement The settlement amount can be measured reliably An entity shall not recognize a contingent liability as a liability, except for contingent liabilities of an acquiree in a business combination Contingent liabilities that meet the two conditions above are not contingent liabilities, but Provisions and are booked Basically the same as SFAS 5 Mark Brechbill, Certified Public Accountants
15 Financial Statement Presentation IFRS for SMEs is Presumed to Achieve a Fair Presentation in the Financial Statements May require additional disclosure If used for entities with public accountability IFRS for SMEs does not result in fair presentation Complete Set of Financial Statements Balance Sheet Income Statement Statement of Changes in Equity Statement of Cash Flows Notes to Financial Statements All statements and notes would be comparative Mark Brechbill, Certified Public Accountants
16 What would the audit report say? Something like: Fairly presents financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with the International Financial Reporting Standards for Small and Medium-sized Entities
17 Section 4 Statement of financial position May still be called balance sheet Current/non-current split is not required if entity concludes liquidity approach is better Some minimum line items And some items that may be in the statement or in the notes But sequencing, format, and titles are not mandated
18 Section 5 Income Statement and Statement of Comprehensive Income One-statement or two-statement approach Must segregate discontinued operations Must present profit or loss subtotal if entity has items of other comprehensive income IASB has proposed to drop the two-statement approach in full IFRSs.
19 Section 5 Income Statement and Statement of Comprehensive Income If an SME presents consolidated financial statements: Bottom line (Profit or Loss in the income statement and Total Comprehensive Income in the statement of comprehensive income) is before allocating those amounts to noncontrolling interest and owners of the parent
20 Section 6 Statement of Changes in Equity Shows all changes to equity including total comprehensive income owners investments and withdrawals dividends treasury share transactions Can omit if no owner investments or withdrawals other than dividends
21 Section 7 Statement of cash flows All SMEs must present a statement of cash flows Option to use the indirect method, or direct method to present operating cash flows
22 Section 8 Notes Disclose basis of preparation (ie IFRS for SMEs) Summary of significant accounting policies Information about judgments Information about key sources of estimation uncertainty Supporting information for items in financial statements Other disclosures
23 Section 9 Consolidation Consolidation is required when parent-subsidiary relationship except: Sub was acquired with intent to dispose within one year Parent itself is a sub and its parent or ultimate parent uses full IFRSs or IFRS for SMEs Basis of consolidation: control Consolidate all controlled SPEs
24 Section 10 Accounting policies If IFRS for SMEs addresses an issue, must follow IFRS for SMEs If IFRS for SMEs does not address an issue: Choose policy that results in most relevant and reliable information Try to analogize from requirements in the IFRS for SMEs Or use concepts/pervasive principles in Sec 2 May look to guidance in full IFRSs but not required
25 Section 10 Accounting Policies Change in accounting policy: If mandated, follow the transition guidance as mandated If voluntary, retrospective Change in accounting estimate: prospective Correction of prior period error: restate prior periods if practicable
26 Section 11 Basic financial instruments Section 11 is an amortized historical cost model with one exception: Equity investments with quoted price or readily determinable fair value are at fair value through P&L. Option to follow IAS 39 instead of sections 11 and 12 Even if IAS 39 is followed, make Section 11/12 disclosures (not IFRS 7 disclosures)
27 Section 11 Basic financial instruments Scope of Sec 11 includes: Cash Demand and fixed deposits Commercial paper and bills Accounts and notes receivable and payable Debt instruments where returns to the holder are fixed or referenced to an observable rate Investments in non-convertible and nonputtable ordinary and preference shares Most commitments to receive a loan
28 Section 11 Basic financial instruments Amortized cost effective interest method Must test all amortized cost instruments for impairment Reversal of impairment Guidance on fair value and effective interest method Derecognition Criteria for basic instruments similar to IFRS 9. No held to maturity or available for sale same as IFRS 9
29 Section 12 Complex financial instruments Financial instruments not covered by Section 11 are at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL). This includes: Investments in convertible and puttable ordinary and preference shares Options, forwards, swaps, and other derivatives Financial assets that would otherwise be in Section 11 but that have exotic provisions that could cause gain/loss to the holder or issuer Hedge accounting
30 Section 13 Inventories At cost, which may be specific identification for specialized items FIFO or weighted average for others No LIFO Impairment (write down to estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell)
31 Section 14 Associates Option to use: Cost model (except if published quotation then must use Fair Value through P&L) Equity method Fair value through profit or loss (if impracticable, then use cost)
32 Section 15 Joint ventures Option to use: Cost model (except if published quotation then must use Fair Value through P&L) Equity method Fair value through profit or loss (if impracticable, then use cost) Proportionate consolidation is prohibited
33 Section 16 Investment property If fair value can be measured reliably without undue cost or effort, use Fair Value through P&L Otherwise, must treat investment property as property, plant and equipment using Section 17 IAS 40 is pure accounting policy choice either depreciation model or fair value through P&L.
34 Section 17 Property, plant & equipment Historical cost depreciation impairment model only. No revaluation model. Section 17 applies to investment property if fair value cannot be measured reliably Section 17 applies to property held for sale Holding for sale is an impairment indicator
35 Section 17 Property, plant & equipment Component depreciation only if major parts of an item of PP&E have significantly different patterns of consumption of economic benefits Review useful life, residual value, depreciation rate only if there is a significant change in the asset or how it is used Impairment testing and reversal follow Section 27
36 Section 18 Intangibles other than goodwill No recognition of internally generated intangible assets Amortize intangibles that are purchased separately, acquired in a business combination, acquired by grant, and acquired by exchange of other assets Amortize over useful life. If unable to estimate useful life, then use 10 years Impairment testing follow Section 27
37 Section 19 Business combinations & goodwill Acquisition method Amortize goodwill. If unable to estimate useful life, then use 10 years. Impairment testing and reversal follow Section 27 Negative goodwill first reassess original accounting. If that is ok, then immediate credit to P&L
38 Section 20 Leases Finance and operating lease classification similar to IAS 17 Measure finance leases at lower of FV of interest in leased property and present value of minimum lease payments For operating leases, do not force straight-line expense recognition if lease payments are structured to compensate lessor for general inflation
39 Section 21 Provisions (Contingencies) Accrue if an obligation arising from a past event and amount can be estimated reliably Disclose (no accrual) contingent liability Measure at best estimate Large population weighted average calculation Single obligation adjusted most likely outcome Includes an appendix of examples
40 Section 22 Liabilities and Equity Guidance on classifying an instrument as liability or equity: Instrument is a liability if the issuer could be required to pay cash However, if puttable only on liquidation, death or retirement of owner, then it is equity Section 22 also covers: original issuance of shares and other equity instruments sales of options, rights and warrants stock dividends and stock splits
41 Section 23 Revenue Same principles as IAS 18 and IAS 11 Goods: Revenue recognized when risks and rewards are transferred, seller has no continuing involvement, measurable Services and construction contracts: Recognized by percentage of completion Principle for measurement is fair value of consideration received or receivable
42 Section 24 Government grants All measured at the fair value of the asset received or receivable Recognition as income: Immediately if no performance conditions are imposed If conditions, recognize when conditions are fulfilled
43 Section 25 Borrowing costs All charged to expense when incurred No capitalization IAS 23 requires capitalization of borrowing costs relating to an asset during construction.
44 Section 26 Share-based payment Must recognize Measure at fair value if practicable If it is impracticable to determine the fair value of the option or other instrument granted, the entity s directors should use their judgment to apply the most appropriate valuation method
45 Section 27 Impairment of assets Inventories - write down to selling price less costs to complete and sell, if below carrying amount Other assets - write down to recoverable amount, if below carrying amount Recoverable amount is the greater of fair value less costs to sell and value in use Write up ability to write up value if impairment no longer exists
46 Section 28 Employee benefits For defined benefit plans, use projected unit credit calculation only if entity is able without undue cost or effort. Otherwise, can simplify: Ignore estimated future salary increases Ignore future service of current employees (assume closure of plan) Ignore possible future in-service mortality Actuarial gains and losses may be recognized in profit or loss or as an item of other comprehensive income
47 Section 29 Income tax Recognize deferred taxes if the tax basis of an asset or liability is different from its carrying amount Tax basis assumes recovery by sale. (If zero capital gains tax, no deferred tax) No deferred tax on an asset or liability if recovery or settlement of carrying amount is not expected to affect taxable profit
48 Section 29 Income tax Exception: No deferred tax on unremitted earnings of foreign subsidiaries and JVs Recognize deferred tax assets in full, with valuation allowance Criterion is that realization is probable (more likely than not) Deferred taxes all non-current Section 29 model is same as IASB/FASB March 2009 exposure draft on Income Tax.
49 Section 30 Foreign currency translation Functional currency approach similar to that in IAS 21 No recycling of gains or losses on net investment in a foreign entity that are initially recognized in other comprehensive income
50 Section 31 Hyperinflation An entity must prepare general price-level adjusted financial statements when its functional currency is hyperinflationary Approximately greater than 100% over 3 years
51 Section 32 Subsequent Events Adjust financial statements for events after the balance sheet date that provide further evidence of conditions that existed at the end of the reporting period Do not adjust for events or conditions that arose after the end of the reporting period Dividends declared after end of period are not a liability
52 Section 33 Related party disclosures Government departments and agencies are not related parties simply by virtue of their normal dealings with an entity Disclosure of key management personnel compensation only as one number in total Fewer disclosures about transactions
53 Section 34 Specialized activities Agriculture use historical cost model unless fair value is readily determinable without undue cost or effort IAS 41 requires FVTPL for all biological assets and agricultural produce. Oil and gas and mining not required to charge exploration costs to expense Service concession arrangements financial assets = FV & Amort.Cost; intangible assets = FV & C-D-I
54 Section 35 First-time adoption Prepare current year and one prior year s financial statements using the IFRS for SMEs But there are many exemptions for restating specific items And a general exemption for impracticability
55 No sections covering these topics Segment reporting Earnings per share Interim reporting Assets held for sale
