2 Categories of Income
- Revenue (AASB Framework para 74):

- Gains represent (AASB Framework paras 75 & 76):

Gains represent increases in economic benefits and as such are not different in nature
from revenue.
Gains are usually displayed separately in income statement when recognised
Knowledge of them is useful in making economic decisions
Gains are often reported net of related expenses.
Classification as revenue or gain does not affect reported profit
- Income Recognition
Recognition of income: AASB Framework paras 92 93
Recognised in income statement when:
a iease i futue eooi eefits elated to a iease i a asset o a deease

recognition of increases in assets or decreases in liabilities)
Procedures for recognising income:
Revenue should be EARNED

Expenses and Losses
- Losses: othe ites that eet defiitio of epeses.
- May (or may not) arise in course of ordinary activities
- They are a decrease in economic benefits
- Examples of losses: Disasters (fire, floods etc.), disposal of non-current assets.
- May be unrealised (e.g. effect of changes in foreign exchange rates)
- Often reported net of related income
- Displayed separately if useful knowledge for decision making
Expense Recognition
- Recognition of expenses (AASB Framework paras 94 98):
he a deease i futue eooi eefits elated to a deease i a asset o a

- Occurs simultaneously with recognition of increase in liabilities or decrease in assets
- Recognised in direct association with earning of income (matching of costs with
revenues)
- If expenses spread over more than one period, recognise them systematically over time
Accounting for Expenses
- DR Expense
- CR Asset (decrease) or liability (increase)

- Additional and material items: up to the company -> can provide as many lines as they
want
The need for change
- Why change the standard?
o Remove inconsistencies and weaknesses in existing revenue requirements
(between standards and the Conceptual Framework)
o Provide a more robust framework
o Improve comparability of revenue recognition practices
o Provide more useful information to users
o Simplify preparation of financial statements
- What does it mean for business? (Implications)
o There will be more judgement for disclosure
o Compensation and bonus plans changes in timing of revenue recognition may
affect these
o Contracts. Existing terms could take on a new meaning
o Technology. Businesses may have to update current software to capture new
information
o Tax implications: timing of cash payments may be affected, e.g. if recognizing
revenue sooner than in the past
o Investor relations: stakeholders will want to know how the new standard will
