51. 13-51  Under IFRS, the term reserves is used to describe all equity accounts other than those arising from contributed (paid-in) 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. Key Points

52. 13-52  There are often terminology differences for equity accounts. The following summarizes some of the common differences in terminology. Key Points

53. 13-53  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

54. 13-54  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 non-contributed (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

55. 13-55  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. 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.  Equity is given various descriptions under IFRS, such as shareholders ’ equity, owners ’ equity, capital and reserves, and shareholders ’ funds. Key Points

56. 13-56 Looking to the Future As indicated in earlier discussions, the IASB and the FASB are currently working on a project related to financial statement presentation. An important part of this study is to determine whether certain line items, subtotals, and totals should be clearly defined and required to be displayed in the financial statements. For example, it is likely that the statement of stockholders ’ equity and its presentation will be examined closely. In addition, the options of how to present other comprehensive income under GAAP will change in any converged standard.

57. 13-57 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 IFRS Self-Test Questions

58. 13-58 Which of the following is true? a)In the United States, the primary corporate stockholders are financial institutions. b)Share capital means total assets under IFRS. c)The IASB and FASB are presently studying how financial statement information should be presented. d)The amount to treasury stock is very different between U.S. GAAP and IFRS. IFRS Self-Test Questions

59. 13-59 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. d)Par value is not used under IFRS. IFRS Self-Test Questions
