Appendix 11A Entries for Stock Dividends 11-74 Key Points Under IFRS, the term reserves is used to describe all equity accounts other than those arising from contributed capital. This would include, for example, reserves related to retained earnings, asset revaluations, and fair value differences. Many countries have a different mix of investor groups than in the United States. For example, in Germany, financial institutions like banks are not only major creditors of corporations but often are the largest corporate stockholders as well. In the United States, Asia, and the United Kingdom, many companies rely on substantial investment from private investors. LO 10 Compare the accounting for transactions related to stockholders equity under GAAP and IFRS. 11-75 Key Points LO 10 There are often terminology differences for equity accounts. The following summarizes some of the common differences in terminology. 11-76 The accounting for treasury stock differs somewhat between IFRS and GAAP. (However, many of the differences are beyond the scope of this course.) Like GAAP, IFRS does not allow a company to record gains or losses on purchases of its own shares. One difference worth noting is that, when a company purchases its own shares, IFRS treats it as a reduction of stockholders equity, but it does not specify which particular stockholders equity accounts are to be affected. Therefore, it could be shown as an increase to a contra equity account (Treasury Stock) or a decrease to retained earnings or share capital. IFRS requires that the number of treasury shares held be disclosed. Key Points LO 10 Compare the accounting for transactions related to stockholders equity under GAAP and IFRS. 11-77 A major difference between IFRS and GAAP relates to the account Revaluation Surplus. Revaluation surplus arises under IFRS because companies are permitted to revalue their property, plant, and equipment to fair value under certain circumstances. This account is part of general reserves under IFRS and is not considered contributed capital. As indicated earlier, the term reserves is used in IFRS to indicate all noncontributed (non paid-in) capital. Reserves include retained earnings and other comprehensive income items, such as revaluation surplus and unrealized gains or losses on available-for-sale securities. Key Points LO 10 Compare the accounting for transactions related to stockholders equity under GAAP and IFRS. 11-78 Key Points Under GAAP, some contingent liabilities are recorded in the financial statements, others are disclosed, and in some cases no disclosure is required. Unlike GAAP, IFRS reserves the use of the term contingent liability to refer only to possible obligations that are not recognized in the financial statements but may be disclosed if certain criteria are met. For those items that GAAP would treat as recordable contingent liabilities, IFRS instead uses the term provisions. Provisions are defined as liabilities of uncertain timing or amount. Under IFRS, the measurement of a provision related to an uncertain obligation is based on the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the obligation. LO 10 11-79 Key Points IFRS often uses terms such as retained profits or accumulated profit or loss to describe retained earnings. The term retained earnings is also often used. The accounting related to prior period adjustments is essentially the same under IFRS and GAAP. IFRS addresses the accounting for errors in IAS 8 ( Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates, and Errors ). One area where IFRS and GAAP differ in reporting relates to error corrections in previously issued financial statements. While IFRS requires restatement with some exceptions, GAAP does not permit any exceptions. LO 10 Compare the accounting for transactions related to stockholders equity under GAAP and IFRS. 11-80 Key Points Equity is given various descriptions under IFRS, such as shareholders equity, owners equity, capital and reserves, and shareholders funds. LO 10 Compare the accounting for transactions related to stockholders equity under GAAP and IFRS. 11-81 Looking to the Future The FASB and IASB are currently involved in two projects. One project is investigating approaches to differentiate between debt and equity instruments. The other project, the elements phase of the conceptual framework project, will evaluate the definitions of the fundamental building blocks of accounting. In addition to these projects, the FASB and IASB have also identified leasing as one of the most problematic areas of accounting. A joint project will initially focus primarily on lessee accounting. One of the first areas to be studied is, What are the assets and liabilities to be recognized related to a lease contract? Should the focus remain on the leased item or the right to use the leased item? This question is tied to the Boards joint project on the conceptual framework defining an asset and a liability. LO 10 Compare the accounting for transactions related to stockholders equity under GAAP and IFRS. 11-82 IFRS Practice LO 10 Compare the accounting for transactions related to stockholders equity under GAAP and IFRS. Under IFRS, a purchase by a company of its own shares is recorded by: a)an increase in Treasury Stock. b)a decrease in contributed capital. c)a decrease in share capital. d)All of these are acceptable treatments. 11-83 IFRS Practice LO 10 Compare the accounting for transactions related to stockholders equity under GAAP and IFRS. The term reserves is used under IFRS with reference to all of the following except: a)gains and losses on revaluation of property, plant, and equipment. b)capital received in excess of the par value of issued shares. c)retained earnings. d)fair value differences. 11-84 IFRS Practice LO 10 Compare the accounting for transactions related to stockholders equity under GAAP and IFRS. Under IFRS, the amount of capital received in excess of par value would be credited to: a)Retained Earnings. b)Contributed Capital. c)Share Premium-Ordinary. d)Par value is not used under IFRS. 11-85 Copyright 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
