Dear all,
can anyone please guide me if there are any guidelines as to establish
date of commercial production in a manufacturing concern in IFRS.
thanks and regards
deepak

Hi Deepak,
I assume you are inferring to either intangible assets.
There is no specific guidance as to this date.
However, it is not unusual to assume the date of commercial production
to be the date (month) in which the first commercial orders are
processed in relation to the intangible.

Dear All
Kindly feed me back regarding the reversal of any previuos writedown
that had been made in a previuos period. Is it possible to reverse a
wirte down for inventory made in 2007 to be reversed in 2008
Noting that I couldn’t reach any specific paragraph in the standards
relatated to this issue.
and how this could be made via entries.
But I think if it is possible to reverse wirtdown made in 2007 to be
reversed in 2008, it may distort results over accounting periods.
Thanks in advance for your prompt reply.

The writedown to inventory in 2007 …

Dear All,
 
if in case an assessee has been served vigilance claim from electricity department. will this be treated as penalty under income tax act and be disallowed?
 
Regards,

Sanjay

That sounds like a local statute issue rather than a purely tax accounting question.  My guess is thought that disallowed penalties for tax purposes refer to penalties coming only from the taxing authority itself rather than a utility.

company accounting standards with some extras/exceptions).

I am working on PPA Valuations for IFRS 3.
I have following two queries:
 

I want to understand the treatment of Deferred Taxes i.e. how are they calculated and accounted for, and whether deferred tax liability needs to be reduced from Purchase Price while calculating Goodwill.
How is tax amortization benefit calculated in valuation of intangible assets? If my intangible asset has a remaining life of say just 4 years, what should be my amortization period?

 
Kindly advise.
 
Thanks and Regards,
 
Tejal.

It would be helpful to give an example of what aspect of IAS 12 you’re interested in.  Depending on what jurisdiction you’re dealing with, one primary difference between many local GAAPs and IFRS on income tax accounting is around deferred tax accounting …

If you have access to an online research tool, at least in the U.S it is part of the research package. A couple of packages that are pretty good are RIA-Thompson’s Checkpoint and …
