The IFRS for SMEs
Section 3
Financial Statement Presentation
Section 3 scope
Section 3 explains
fair presentation of financial statements
what compliance with the IFRS for SMEs
requires
what is a complete set of financial
statements
Section 3 fair presentation
Fair presentation is the faithful

representation of the effects of
transactions, other events and
conditions in accordance with the
definitions and recognition criteria for
assets, liabilities, income and expenses
The application of the IFRS for SMEs
(with additional disclosure when
necessary) is presumed to result in a fair
presentation of the financial position,
financial performance & cash flows of an
entity that is not publicly accountable
Section 3 compliance
10
An entity whose financial statements

comply with the IFRS for SMEs must
make an explicit and unreserved
statement of such compliance in the
notes
Financial statements shall not be
described as complying with the IFRS for
SMEs unless they comply with all the
requirements of the IFRS for SMEs
Section 3 compliance statement
11
Ex 1*: An entity prepares its consolidated

financial statements for the year ended
31 December 20X2 in accordance with the
IFRS for SMEs.
Note 2 Basis of preparation and accounting
policies
These consolidated financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with the
International Financial Reporting Standard
(IFRS) for Small and Medium-sized Entities
issued by the International Accounting Standards
Board.
* see example 1 in Module 3 of the IFRS Foundation training material
Section 3 compliance statement?
12
Can either of the following entities assert

compliance with the IFRS for SMEs?
Ex 5*: A has public accountability. It uses
the IFRS for SMEs.
Ex 6*: B does not have public
accountability. It uses local GAAP.
The local GAAP is based mainly on the
IFRS for SMEs but has some material
differences.
* see example with the same number in Module 3 of the IFRS Foundation training material
Section 3 going concern
13
An entity is a going concern unless

management either intends to liquidate
the entity or to cease operations, or has
no realistic alternative but to do so
When preparing financial statements, the
management of an entity must make an
assessment of the entitys ability to
continue as a going concern
Section 3 going concern disclosures
14
Disclose material uncertainties related to

events or conditions that cast significant
doubt upon the entitys ability to
continue as a going concern
If financial statements are not prepared
on a going concern basis disclose:
that fact
the basis of preparation
the reason why the entity is not regarded
as a going concern
Section 3 consistency of presentation 15

Same presentation and classification each
year unless:
significant change in the nature of the
entitys operations or review of
presentation and find another presentation
or classification more appropriate (ie
reliable and more relevant), or
the IFRS for SMEs requires a change in
presentation.
If change, restate comparatives and
disclose (nature, amount and reason)
Section 3 comparative information
16
Disclose
1 years comparative amounts
comparative information for narrative and
descriptive information when relevant to
understanding current periods financial
statements
Section 3 materiality and aggregation 17

Material if could, individually or collectively,
influence economic decisions of users
depends on size and nature of the omission
or misstatement
judged in the surrounding circumstances
Present separately
each material class of similar items
items of a dissimilar nature or function
unless they are immaterial
Materiality threshold is lower for notes
Section 3 materiality decisions

18
Is the error material?
Ex 13*: Before its 20X8 FS approved for
issue discovered depreciation expense
for 20X8 overstated by CU150. Ignored
the error (reported profit for 20X8 at
CU600,000, ie understated by CU150).
Ex 15*: Same as Ex 13, except had the
error been corrected the entity would
have breached a borrowing covenant on
a significant longterm liability.
* see example with the same number in Module 3 of the IFRS Foundation training material
Section 3 financial statements

Ex 10*: At 31/12/20X7 A was in breach of

a covenant in a loan that is otherwise
repayable 3 years later. The breach
entitles (but does not oblige) the bank to

Section 7
Statement of Cash Flows
Section 7 scope
48
The statement of cash flows provides

information about the changes in cash and
cash equivalents of an entity for a reporting
period, showing separately changes from
operating activities, investing activities and
financing activities.
Section 7
sets out the information that is to be
presented in a statement of cash flows and
how to present it
Section 7 cash equivalents

Disclose commentary by management the
amount of
significant cash and cash equivalents that
are not available for use by the entity
examples: foreign exchange controls or
legal restrictions
Section 7 unrealised gains and losses
51
Unrealised gain and losses are not cash

flows
However, unrealised exchange rate
gain/loss on foreign currency cash and
cash equivalents are shown in CFS
separate from operating, investing and
financing activities
ie in the reconciliation of cash and cash
equivalents
Section 7 operating activities
52
Operating activities are the principal

revenue-producing activities of the entity
Operating activity cash flows include
cash receipts from customers
cash payments to suppliers & employees
cash flows of income tax, unless
specifically identified with financing and
investing activities
cash flows from investments, loans and
other contracts held for dealing or trading
purposes
Section 7 direct or indirect method

Accounting policy choice to present
operating cash flows
53
indirect method
profit or loss is adjusted for the effects of
non-cash transactions, any deferrals or
accruals of past or future operating cash
receipts or payments, and items of income
or expense associated with investing or
financing cash flows
direct method
major classes of gross cash receipts &
gross cash payments are presented
54
Section 7 investing activities
Investing activities are the acquisition &
disposal of long-term assets & other
investments not included in cash
equivalents.
Investing activity cash flows include
cash payments to acquire (cash receipts
from sale of) long-term assets (eg PP&E)
cash payments to acquire (cash receipts
from the sale) equity or debt instruments
of other entities and interests in joint
ventures (other than payments/receipts
for those instruments classified as cash
equivalents or held for dealing/trading)
Section 7 financing activities

Financing activities are activities that
result in changes in the size and

finance lease
55
Section 7 investing and financing
56
Present separately major classes of gross

cash receipts and gross cash payments
arising from investing and financing
activities.
The aggregate cash flows arising from
acquisitions and from disposals of
subsidiaries or other business units shall
be presented separately and classified as
investing activities.
Section 7 example
57
Ex 1: In 20X7 A acquires 50% of the equity

of B for CU110 when Bs cash and cash
equivalents = CU10. From 1/1/20X7 A
controls B (ie B is a subsidiary of A)
Scenarios
(i) A settles the purchase price in cash
(ii) A buys on credit (will settle next year)
(iii) A settles by issuing its own equity to the
seller
(iv) A borrows CU110 from the bank and uses
cash borrowed to settle
Section 7 example 1 continued
58
The group (A & B consolidated) would

present a cash flow in the investing
activities section for the purchase of a
subsidiary of:
scenario (i) CU100 outflow (ie CU110 less
CU10)
scenario (ii) CU10 inflow
scenario (iii) CU10 inflow
scenario (iv) CU100 outflow (in investing
activities) & CU110 inflow in financing
activities
Section 7 example
Ex 2: Same as Ex 1 except A has
significant influence over B (ie B is an
associate of A)
A would present:
scenario (i) CU110 outflow in investing
activities
scenario (ii) no cash flows
scenario (iii) no cash flows
scenario (iv) CU110 outflow in investing
activities & CU110 inflow in financing
activities
59
Section 7 interest and dividends
60
Interest and dividends CFs:

show separately and classify consistently
interest & dividends received = operating
or investing activity
interest paid = operating or financing
activity
dividends paid usually = financing activity
Section 7 foreign currency and hedging
61
Foreign currency: record CFs at the

exchange rate on the date of the cash flow
Hedge accounting: CFs of the hedging
instrument are classified same way as
CFs of hedged item
Section 7 non-cash transactions

Exclude from statement of cash flows
however, disclose elsewhere in the
financial statements (eg notes)
Examples
finance lease (initial recognition)
issue own equity to acquire business
convert debt into equity

Section 8
Notes to the Financial Statements
Section 8 scope
64
Notes provide additional information

narrative descriptions or disaggregations
of items presented in statements and
information about items that do not
qualify for recognition.
Section 8 sets out the principles for
presenting note disclosures
Other sections require note disclosures
Section 8 overview of notes
65
Notes are presented systematically and

cross-reference to FS
Notes present information about
basis of presentation
specific accounting policies used
information about judgements and key
sources of estimation uncertainty
Notes disclose
the information required by the IFRS for
SMEs that is not presented elsewhere
other information that is relevant to an
understanding of the FS
Section 8 order of presentation

1st: statement of compliance (IFRS for
SMEs)
2nd: summary of significant accounting
policies applied
3rd: supporting information for items
presented in FS, follow sequence in FS
4th: other disclosures
66
Section 8 accounting policies
67
Disclose:
measurement bases used
other relevant accounting policies used
information about judgements made in
applying accounting policies that have the
most significant effect on the FS
information about key sources of
estimation uncertainty that have a
significant risk of causing a material
adjustment within 1 year (including their
nature and carrying amount)
Section 8 examples of judgements in

applying accounting policies
68
Whether outflow is more likely than not re a

present obligation = recognise a liability?
Whether a lease transfers substantially all
risks and rewards of ownership = finance
or operating lease?
When risks and rewards transfer for goods
sold = when to recognise revenue?
Whether arrangement = sales of goods or
financing?
Whether controls exists = whether to
consolidate?
Section 8 judgement in applying

AP
69
Ex 3* lease classification
In 20X3 A entered into an agreement (as lessee) for the use
of an executive jet. It is not clear whether the lease transfers
substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to
ownership. However, management judge the lease to be an
operating lease and therefore the lease is accounted for as
an executory contract. Had the lease been judged to be a
finance lease, the entity would have recognised the leased
asset and a corresponding lease liability and it would have
apportioned lease payments between finance costs and the
repayment of the liability. It would also have depreciated the
leased asset over its useful life. The entitys commitment to
make future noncancellable lease payments for the use of
the jet is set out in note 40.

Section 8 key measurement

70
assumptions
Ex 4* Fair value of financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities that are not
basic financial instruments (see note 12) are carried
at their fair value, with changes in fair value
recorded in profit or loss. When no active market
exists, or when quoted prices are not otherwise
available, judgement is required in determining fair
value.
In these circumstances, fair value is determined
using a variety of valuation techniques including
present value methods, models based on
observable input parameters, and models where
some of the input parameters are unobservable.


assumptions
71
Ex 4 continued:
Valuation models are used primarily to value
derivatives transacted in the overthecounter
market, including credit derivatives and unlisted
securities with embedded derivatives. All valuation
models are validated before they are used, and
periodically reviewed thereafter, by independent
qualified financial instrument valuation experts.
Wherever possible, valuations derived from models
are compared with quoted prices of similar financial
instruments, and with actual values when realised,
in order to further validate and calibrate our models.

assumptions
72
Ex 4 continued:
Our models incorporate information about the actual
or estimated market prices and rates, time value,
volatility, market depth and liquidity among others.
When available, we use market observable prices and
rates derived from market verifiable data. When such
factors are not market observable, changes in
assumptions could affect the reported fair value of
financial instruments. The models are applied from
one period to the next. However, estimating fair value
inherently involves a significant degree of judgement.
Management therefore establishes valuation
adjustments to cover the risks associated with the
estimation of unobservable input parameters and the
assumptions within the models themselves.

assumptions
73
Ex 4 continued:
Valuation adjustments are also made to reflect such
elements as aged positions, deteriorating creditworthiness
(including country-specific risks), concentrations in specific
types of instruments and market risk factors (interest rates,
currencies etc), and market depth and liquidity. Although a
significant degree of judgement is, in some cases, required
in establishing fair values, management believes the fair
values recorded in the statement of financial position and the
changes in fair values recorded in the statement of
comprehensive income are reflective of the underlying
economics, based on the controls and procedural
safeguards employed.

assumptions
74
Ex 4 continued:
Nevertheless, management have estimated the
effect that a change in assumptions to reasonably
possible alternatives could have on fair values
where model inputs are not market observable. For
all financial instruments carried at fair value which
rely on assumptions for their valuation, we estimate
that fair value could lie in a range from CU500,000
lower to CU500,000 higher than the fair values of
CU2,000,000 (see note 12) recognised in the
financial statements.

IFRSs
Section 10 accounting policies hierarchy78

Ex 5*: A received a grant of CU50,000
from a nongovernment development
agency to set up farming operations in a
specified rural area.
IFRS for SMEs does not specify how to account for
a grant from a nongovernment agency.
However, it specifies how to account for
government grants (Section 24 Government
Grants).
By analogy, A should account for the grant received
in accordance with Section 24.
Section 10 consistency of acc.

policies
79
Select and apply its accounting policies

consistently for similar transactions,
other events and conditions
Change accounting policy only if
is required by change to IFRS for SMEs
(compulsory)
results in reliable and more relevant
information (voluntary)
80
Ex 7*: A measures invests in associates at

fair value. Because it cannot determine
the fair value of its investment in associate
B, it measures it using the cost model.
As accounting policy is acceptable. Sect 14
requires A choose cost, equity method, or fair
value. If choose fair value still use cost for
investments if impracticable to measure fair
value reliably without undue cost or effort (see
paragraph 14.10).
81
Ex 9*: As acc. policy = account for

investments in associates at fair value
and jointly controlled entities at cost.
None of As investments are traded in a
public securities market.
As accounting policies are acceptable. Its
policy for associates need not be the same
as its policy for jointly controlled entities.
Section 10 change in accounting policy82

Change accounting policy if
if mandated, follow the transition
guidance as mandated
if voluntary, retrospective application

Disclosures
Section 10 retrospective application
83
Ex 20*: In 20X7 A voluntarily changed an

accounting policy. The cumulative effect of
the change is a decrease of CU100,000 in
retained earnings at 1/1/20X7 (ie CU25,000
less profit for each of the past four years).
The entity presents two years of
comparative information.

Ex 21*: Facts same as Ex 20. Except, it is

impracticable to determine the individual
period effects of the change of policy.
Presented as a restatement of:

CU100,000 (no adjustment to 20X5 & 20X6)
additional disclosures
Section 10 accounting estimate
85
The use of reasonable estimates is an

essential part of accounting.
Changes in accounting estimates result
from new information or new
developments and, accordingly, are not
corrections of errors.
Section 10 errors
86
Prior period errors are omissions from,

and misstatements in, financial
statements for prior periods arising from
a failure to use, or misuse of, reliable
information that:
was available when financial statements
for those periods were authorised for
issue, and
could reasonably be expected to have
been obtained and taken into account in
the preparation & presentation of those

Residual value = CU100,000. Straight line
method of depreciation.
At 31/12/20X9, as a result of research in
20X9, A reassessed the yacht as follows:
useful life at 20 years from 1/1/20X1;
residual value at nil; fair value at
CU800,000; and straight-line depreciation
as most appropriate method.
90
Ex 28 continued: The reassessment of the

yachts useful life and its residual value are
changes in accounting estimates. The
revised assessments are appropriately made
on the basis of new information that arose
from research performed in the current
reporting period20X9.*

material

91
Ex 29*: Same as Ex 28, except, the

research was publicly available in late
20X5. A believed the research to be valid
but chose to ignore it until 20X9.
As 20X520X8 financial statements include
errors. The comparative figures in its 20X9
financial statements must be restated to
correct the effects of the prior period errors [if
material].

Section 30
Foreign Currency Translation
93
Section 30 background
An entity can have transactions in foreign
currencies and it can have foreign
operations.
It may also present its FS in a foreign
currency.
Accounting for financial instruments
denominated in a foreign currency and
hedge accounting of foreign currency items
are dealt with in Sections 11 and 12 (session
on PM day-2 of this workshop).
Section 30 scope
94
Section 30 prescribes how to:

determine an entitys functional currency
measure foreign currency transactions
include foreign operations in FS (see
session on PM day-3 of this workshop)
translate FS into a presentation currency
(see session on PM day-3 of this workshop).
It also specifies disclosures.
Section 30 functional currency
95
Each entity identifies its functional

currencythe currency of the primary
economic environment in which the entity
operates (ie normally the one in which it
primarily generates and expends cash)
A foreign currency transaction is a
transaction that is denominated or requires
settlement in a foreign currency (ie a
currency other than the entitys functional
currency)
Section 30 determine functional currency96

Most important factors to consider when
determining an entitys functional currency:
the currency:
that mainly influences sales prices (often the
currency in which its sales are denominated
and settled), and
of the country whose competitive forces and
regulations mainly determine its sales prices.
the currency that mainly influences labour,
material & other costs of providing goods or
services (this will often be the currency in
which such costs are denominated and
settled).
Section 30 disclose functional

97
currency
Disclose currency in which financial
statements are presented
If presentation currency is not functional
currency disclose:
that fact
the functional currency
reason for using a different presentation
currency
When functional currency of entity or a
significant operation changes disclose:
that fact
reason for the change
Section 30 change functional

98
currency
Change functional currency only if
change to underlying transactions,
events and conditions
eg a change in the currency that mainly
influences the sales prices of goods and
services
Accounted for change prospectively
translate all items using the exchange
rate at the date of the change
resulting translated amounts for nonmonetary items are treated as their
historical cost
Section 30 foreign currency

transaction
99
Initial recognition
measure a foreign currency transaction in
the functional currency using the spot
exchange rate on the date when the
transaction first qualifies for recognition
Section 30 examples initial recognition 100

Ex 1: As functional currency is CU.
On 1/12/20X1 A buys goods on credit for
FCU100,000 (FCU denominated) when
spot currency exchange rate =
FCU1:CU2.
On 1/12/20X1 A recognises inventories and
trade payables of CU200,000.
Section 30 examples initial recognition 101

Ex 2: As functional currency is CU.
On 1/12/20X1 A buys an investment
property for FCU100,000 when the spot
currency exchange rate = FCU1:CU2 (ie A
pays CU200,000).
A accounts for the investment property at
its fair value.
On 1/12/20X1 A recognises its investment
property at CU200,000.
Section 30 subsequent measurement
102
At the end of each reporting period

translate foreign currency monetary items
using the closing rate;
translate non-monetary items that are
measured in terms of historical cost in a
foreign currency using the exchange rate
at the date of the transaction; and
translate non-monetary items that are
measured at fair value in a foreign
currency using the exchange rates at the
date when the fair value was determined.
Section 30 translation gains and losses
103
Monetary items
recognise, in profit or loss when the
exchange differences arise (ie on settlement
or on retranslating (exception see paragraph
30.13).
Non-monetary items
recognise exchange differences (in profit or
loss or OCI) follows classification of the
underlying item.
Disclose
amount of exchange differences recognised
in profit or loss (excluding those on items
carried using the fair value model)
104
Ex 1 continued: On 31/12/20X1 (As year-end)

the spot currency exchange rate =
FCU1:CU2.1.
On 1/2/20X2 when the spot rate =
FCU1:CU2.05 A pays CU205,000 to settle
the FCU100,000 liability.
At 31/12/20X1 A reports the trade payable at
CU210,000 and recognises loss of CU10,000
in profit or loss.
On 1/2/20X2 A derecognises the FCU100,000
payable and recognises gain of CU5,000.
105
Ex 2 continued: On 31/12/20X1 (As financial

year-end) the fair value of the investment
property = FCU100,000 (ie coincidentally
no change) and the spot currency
exchange rate = FCU1:CU2.1.
At 31/12/20X1 A remeasures the investment
property at CU210,000 and records a gain of
CU10,000 as a change in fair value (rather
than exchange difference) in profit or loss.
Section 30 subsequent measurement 106

Ex 3: Same as Ex 2 except:
A accounts for its investment property
using the cost model (because its fair
value cannot be measured reliably on
an ongoing basis).
At 31/12/20X1 A records the investment
property at CU200,000 (ie no
remeasurement because it is a nonmonetary asset carried at historical cost).
Section 30 presentation &

disclosure
107
The amount of exchange differences

recognised in profit or loss (other than
those arising from fair value changes)
Non-monetary items
recognise exchange differences (in profit
or loss or OCI) follows classification of the
underlying item.

Section 32
Events after the End of the Reporting
Period
109
Section 32 scope
Events after the end of the reporting
period are those events, favourable and
unfavourable, that occur between the end
of the reporting period and the date when
the financial statements are authorised
for issue.
110
Section 32 types of events
Two types of events after the end of the
reporting period
adjusting eventsthose that provide
evidence of conditions that existed at the
end of the reporting period
non-adjusting eventsthose that are
indicative of conditions that arose after
the end of the reporting period
Section 32 accounting and reporting
111
Adjusting eventsadjust the amounts

recognised (and update disclosures
made) in its financial statements
Non-adjusting eventsdo not adjust the
amounts recognised in its financial
statements. However, disclose:
the nature of the event, and
an estimate of its financial effect, or a
statement that estimate cannot be made
112
Section 32 example adjusting event
Ex 7*: On 31/12/20X5 A assessed its
warranty obligation as CU100,000. Before
its 20X5 financial statements were
authorised for issue, A discovered a
latent defect in one of its lines of
products. It reassessed its warranty
obligation at 31/12/20X5 at CU150,000.
Adjusting eventlatent defect existed at
31/12/20X5. Measure warranty provision at
CU150,000 at 31/12/20X5.

Section 32 example non-adjusting event113

Ex 12*: On 28/2/20X1 As 31/12/20X0 FS
authorised for issue. At 31/12/20X0 the
fair value of As investment in Bs publicly
traded shares = CU20,000.
On 28/2/20X1 fair value of shares =
CU25,000.

Section 32 example non-adjusting event114

Ex 12 continued:
Non-adjusting eventthe change in the fair
value results from conditions that arose after
20X0.
A does not adjust the amounts recognised in
its financial statements. However, it must
give additional disclosure see paragraph
32.10.
Section 32 disclosure non-adjusting
115
Ex 15*: 1/3/20X1 As 31/12/20X0 FS

authorised for issue when spot ex rate =
CU2.5:FCU1.
At 31/12/20X0 spot ex rate = CU2:FCU1. A
measured its FCU2,000,000 unhedged
noncurrent liability at CU4,000,000 in
SOFP.
Section 32 disclosure non-adjusting

Ex 15 continued:
Note 20 Events after the end of the reporting

period
The financial statements were authorised for
issue on 1 March 20X1 when the exchange rate
was CU2.5:FCU1. The deterioration of the
exchange rate from CU2:FCU1 at 31 December
20X1 has increased the expected settlement
amount of the FCUdenominated liability by
CU1,000,000.
