How to treat the income which was earned and accounted in 2007, which is being partly refunded in 2009.
The organisation had legal rights to the income and there was no error in accounting, so it is not a prior period item and there is no changes in the accounting policy.  The income is just being refunded this year to keep the good faith and relations of certain parties.
Appreciate comments on the same.

Dear Experts,
Please give your opinion on the following on IAS-8
An expense provision was taken twice, Whether IAS 8 will apply and need restatement of previous year or to be considered as liability w/back and take it to income.
An estimate of an expense was taken on adhoc and that was in excess of what paid in subsequent year, Whether IAS-8 will apply and restatement is required or to be considered as liability w/back and take it to income.
Thanks,
Hemant
