50. © 2011 IFRS Foundation | 30 Cannon Street | London EC4M 6XH | UK | www.ifrs.org 50 Financial Statement Presentation Case Question (w): Note 15 Deferred tax Can deferred tax asset expected to be received in 12 months be presented as current asset?

51. © 2011 IFRS Foundation | 30 Cannon Street | London EC4M 6XH | UK | www.ifrs.org 51 Financial Statement Presentation Case Question (x): Note 16 Bank overdraft and loan Instead of presenting cash (current asset) separately from bank overdraft (current liability) could XYZ choose to present the net amount (eg 20X2: 54,900) as a current liability ‘Cash and cash equivalents’ in its consolidated statement of financial position (ie in the same way that it is presented in the consolidated statement of cash flows)?

52. © 2011 IFRS Foundation | 30 Cannon Street | London EC4M 6XH | UK | www.ifrs.org 52 Financial Statement Presentation Case Question (x): Note 16 Bank overdraft and loan ¶2.52 prohibits offsetting unless explicitly required or permitted by the IFRS for SMEs.

So it is ‘virtually certain’. Why is it not shown as a receivable in the statement of financial position?

56. © 2011 IFRS Foundation | 30 Cannon Street | London EC4M 6XH | UK | www.ifrs.org 56 Financial Statement Presentation Case Question (z): Note 25 Events after end of reporting period Why no receivable for the ‘virtually certain’ 16,000 reimbursement from the insurance company?
