The problems of accounting for defined benefit pensions represents a significant issue on corporate balance sheets.  As of December 31, 2010, of the S&P 500 companies the funded ratio of plans was 81%, and corporate governance reports it the #1 concern in corporate planning.  One of the largest parts to the problem is understanding just how big the liabilities are, as older expectations and differing measurements make sets of circumstances difficult to compare.

We expect that this liability will be sold in 2010 by third party to parent of company A. After this transaction we expect that Company A will issue new shares as full settlement of this liability.
My question relates to derecognition of this liability => difference between carrying amount of liability and its fair value. Is …

Now I have following questions:
Whether tenant should be billed for another years & recognize revenue and simultaneously provide as bad debts, based on the facts that …

Is this the right treatment s per IFRS or we should take the reversal amount as an income?
what if bonus amount is charged to income statement in 1st year and after year end and closing of financial, management decide not to pay bonus. In second year, if we drop …

I know it’s a probably stupid question, but it keeps popping up, so I guess it’s important to somebody.
For example, XYZ uses electricity in its retail outlets.
On 31.12.Y1, it estimates the expense to be 25,000 and records this amount as year 1 “electricity expense”
On 15.1.Y2, it receives a formal invoice from the supplier.
As per this invoice, it is able to determine that the actual Y1 expense was 28,000.
Question: assuming its fiscal year-end is 31.12, what would be the proper procedure for dealing with this accrued liability as per IFRS?
Now, lets …

Hello,
I would be grateful for your advice on the following situation:
Company P buys 100% of company A and recognises goodwill in its consolidated financial statements. 3 months later the two companies merge and in the next period’s financial statements the goodwill is no longer separately presented, but presented in the notes as part of the investment property and is called “value of rentals” (company A owned a shopping mall). My question is: What happens to goodwill when a parent and subsidiary merge and which IFRS/IAS would you advise me to …

I ran into a situation where a company takes a physical inventory (serially manufactured products) annually. In its  interim statements, it would like to omit the change in inventory from its cost of sales calculation (since including it would require a physical inventory in the interim). Assuming it publishes condensed interim statements, would this be acceptable? Or should it estimate the change? If so, any suggestions as to how?
(sorry if this was posted twice, the firs time I got a server timeout).
