When you say value, I assume a cash donation was made to buy the

Asim

well Esther the UK leads the path i.e. the UK tax authorities are the only ones in Europe which accept IFRS reporting to the extent that its website http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/ does have a section allocated to differences between IFRS and UK GAAP
I wish in Germany they had the same thing!!!!!

Dear all
Please help in deciding what items can be regarded as cash equivalents

Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Lina

Cash equivalents are financial instruments that can be easily converted to cash, have high liquidity like stock of quoted companies.

Best Regards.
Alberto

Lina,
I woul suggest to take a look into IAS 7.6: Short term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insgnificant risk of changes in value. Normally only an investment with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition.

Hi Gord,
 
I don’t have info about it, but I would strongly recommend to include in the estimation the costs of following up on the quality of the conversion and further system modifications. Sometime those are bigger than the actual initial conversion costs.
