IFRS 13 同时明确,类似于公允价值但并非公允价值的计量(如, 《国际会计准则第 2 号——存货》(IAS 2)中的可变现净值或者 《国际会计准则第 36 号——资产减值》(IAS 36)中的使用价 值)不属于 IFRS 13 的范围。
IFRS 13 豁免以下项目遵循其披露要求: • 按照《国际会计准则第 19 号——雇员福利》(IAS 19)以公允价值计量的计

国际财务报告准则概念框架

国际财务报告准则概念框架

国际财务报告准则概念框架国际财务报告准则概念框架(国际财报准则框架,International Financial Reporting Framework,简称IFRS)是国际会计准则委员会(International Accounting Standards Board,简称IASB)制定的一套原则性规范,旨在提供一个清晰的指导方针,帮助公司制定和解释其财务报告。

本文将一步一步回答有关国际财务报告准则概念框架的问题。

第一步:什么是国际财务报告准则概念框架?国际财务报告准则概念框架是一份由IASB发布的指南,旨在规范国际上所有企业在编制财务报表时的行为。

这个框架提供了关于财务报表的目标、财务报告要素、计量、识别和解释事项等方面的准则,以确保财务报表的质量和可比性。

第二步:国际财务报告准则概念框架的目标是什么?国际财务报告准则概念框架的目标是提供一个共同而可理解的财务报告标准,以便投资者、债权人和其他财务报表使用者可以准确地了解公司的财务状况和经营绩效。

通过进行财务报表的准确、完整和透明的呈报,框架旨在增强投资者信心,为企业和投资者提供决策依据以及促进国际金融市场的发展。

第三步:国际财务报告准则概念框架中的财务报告要素有哪些?国际财务报告准则概念框架界定了财务报告的三个主要要素:资产、负债和所有者权益、收入和费用。

资产是企业控制的未来经济利益的来源,负债和所有者权益是对这些经济利益来源的履行承诺。

收入是指企业在正常经营活动中实现的增加经济利益的流入,费用则是指企业在正常经营活动中实现的减少经济利益的流出。

第四步:国际财务报告准则概念框架如何确定财务报表的计量基础?国际财务报告准则概念框架明确了财务报表的计量基础应基于成本或公允价值。

成本计量基础意味着资产和负债按照其获取成本进行呈报,其中包括购买成本和相关的直接或间接支出。

公允价值计量基础则指资产和负债应按照其在市场上的公允价值进行呈报,即交易当日能够买入或卖出的金额。

外文翻译原文:A Common Framework for Accounting StandardsIn September 2010,the U.S.Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) completed the first phase of a project that will influence global standards setting for many years to come.Specifically,the Boards converged key portions of their conceptual frameworks.This month’s column will explain what the Boards have done and the significance of their accomplishment.What’s a Conceptual Framework?A conceptu al framework for a set of accounting standards is an explicit declaration of the fundamental concepts on which the set of standards is based.The concepts addressed by conceptual frameworks tend to be general in nature,broad in scope,and stable over time.For example,a conceptual framework typically will identify the kinds of financial statements that reporting entities should prepare (balance sheet,income statement,etc.) and define the basic elements of those financial statements (assets,liabilities,income, expenses,etc.). Having a conceptual framework eliminates the need for a standards setter,such as the FASB or the IASB,to reestablish core concepts each time it develops or updates a standard.Additionally,by consistently referring to a stable conceptual framework,a standards setter is more likely to promulgate standards that are consistent with each other as well as with significant assumptions and constraints. The conceptual framework of U.S.Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) is documented in a series of Statements of Financial Accounting Concepts (SFACs) issued by the FASB.The IASB has documented the conceptual framework of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) in its Framework for the Preparation and Presentation of Financial Statements.Though similar in some respects,the two frameworks have always been separate and distinct from each other—until recently.As part of theirefforts to converge the specific standards that comprise U.S.GAAP and IFRS,the Boards have begun to converge their conceptual frameworks as well.The FASB-IASB Conceptual Framework ProjectIn October 2004,the FASB and the IASB added a joint conceptual framework project to their agendas.The objective of the project is “to develop an improved common conceptual framework that provides a sound accounting standards.”In other words,the Boards have been working together to replace their separate frameworks with a single framework on which both future U.S.GAAP and future IFRS will be based.Each Board is committed to making the single framework better than either one’s existing framework. The joint conceptual framework project consists of eight phases,designated “A”through “H”:A. Objective and qualitative characteristicsB. Elements and recognitionC. MeasurementD. Reporting entityE. Presentation and disclosure, including financial reporting boundariesF. Framework purpose and status in GAAP hierarchyG. Applicability to the not-for-profit sectorH. Remaining issuesIn July 2006,the FASB and the IASB issued a Preliminary Views (PV) document for Phase A that described the Boards’tentative thoughts on the overall objective of financial reporting and on the necessary and desirable qualitative characteristics of reported financial information.After further deliberations,the Boards issued an Exposure Draft (ED) for Phase A in May 2008 that proposed the first two chapters of a common conceptual framework.Final versions of those two chapters were subsequently issued by the Boards on September 28,2010.The FASB issued the two chapte rs together as SFAC No.8,“Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting—Chapter 1,The Objective of General Purpose Financial Reporting,and Chapter 3,Qualitative Characteristics of Useful Financial Information(a replacement of FASB Concepts Statements No.1 a nd No.2).”(SFACNo.1 was “Objectives of Financial Reporting by Business Enterprises,”and SFAC No.2 was “Qualitative Characteristics of Accounting Information.”)The Board had previously issued only seven SFACs in its 37-year history—none of them in the past 10 years.The infrequency of SFAC issuance reflects the high degree of stability in the FASB’s conceptual framework over time.But change happens,and the less frequently it happens,the more significant it is when it does happen.For its part,the IASB incorporated the two chapters into a revised version of its framework that it published as The Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting 2010.Previously,the IASB hadn’t made a substantive revision to its framework since 2001. Again,that fact that conceptual frameworks don’t change frequently makes the recent changes by the FASB and the IASB all the more notable.The Objective of General Purpose Financial ReportingChapter 1 of the Boards’common conceptual framework focuses on the overall objective of financial reporting.As stated in SFAC No.8,“The objective of general purpose financial reporting is to provide financial information about the reporting entity that is useful to existing and potential investors, lenders,and other creditors in making decisions about providing resources to the entity.”This is broadly consistent with the FASB’s prior objective as stated in SFAC No.1:“Financial reporting should provide information that is useful to present and potential investors and creditors and other users in making rational investment,credit,and similar decisions.”The newly defined objective is also similar to the IASB’s prior objective of“provid[ing] information about the financial position,performance,and changes in financial position of an entity that is useful to a wide range of users in making economic decisions.”The aspect of the new converged objective that differs most from each Board’s previous objective is the emphasis on “general purpose”financial reporting.Both Boards currently view their standards-setting efforts as directed at the needs of financial-statement users who aren’t in a position to obtain specific information tailored to each user’s individual needs.Qualitative Characteristics of Useful Financial InformationThe FASB and the IASB decided that the second chapter they issued recently willactually be Chapter 3 of their common conceptual framework.The Boards have reserved Chapter 2 for the output of Phase D (the reporting entity phase) of the conceptual framework project.Most of us think of the information in financial statements as being primarily quantitative in nature.But the FASB and the IASB have long recognized that there are certain qualitative characteristics of financial information that affect its usefulness—specifically,how useful it is for making the kinds of economic decisions that users of financial statements make.Accordingly,the Boards have identified such qualitative characteristics in Chapter 3.As outlined above, there are in principle two distinct components to these payments, which are the transaction value at the point of purchase (which is the cost of the resource consumed) and the difference between this value and the actual settlement amount (which is a cost of finance). Yet, in practice, this distinction is rarely made, and the supplier's credit terms are typically rolled up into a single amount. While it would be possible for accounting standards to require the separate calculation of all financing expenses, the current absence of such a requirement means that an entity's operating profit includes suppliers' retum on finance. For the sake of consistency between the income statement and the balance sheet, accounts payable should therefore also be classified as operating. If they were not, measures of retum on capital employed would be artificially low. Conceptually, if financing activity is defined by nature, classifying accounts payable as operating would be the wrong answer, but practically it would at least be intemally consistent.It would not be the wrong answer, however, according to a fianctional perspective on financing activity. Indeed, the absence of a separately reported financing expense can be viewed as evidence that the underlying fiinction is not financing. The case for the functional perspective is stronger still if standard-setters also seek to achieve consistency with the cash flow statement. Consider, for example, an asset retirement obligation. The liability is by nature a source of finance, which results fi-om an operating expense and which increases as financing expenses (interest costs) are incurred. The cash settlement of the liability does not distinguish, however, between the operating andfinancing components of the liability: there is not an operating cash flow separate fi-om a financing cash flow.These concems over measurement reliability might suggest that the gain or loss from revised cash flow estimates should be reported as operating, yet the same would not be tme for a gain or loss from revisions to expected discount rates, which are the capitalised counterpart of the current period's interest costs and so are not candidates for inclusion in operating profit.The Boards have deemed relevance and faithful representation to be the fundamental qualitative characteristics of useful financial information.This reflects the Boards’belief that financial information must exhibit those characteristics in order to be useful for making decisions.Additionally,the Boards have identified comparability,verifiability,timeliness,and understandability as qualitative characteristics that enhance the usefulness of financial information.Such characteristics complement the fundamental characteristics and enhance decision-usefulness when they are present.In short,they are “nice to have”characteristics rather than “must have”ones.(As a matter of personal opinion,I find it somewhat disturbing that the Boards don’t consider understandability to be “fundamental.”)In addition to fundamental and enhancing qualitative characteristics,the Boards have also identified a pervasive constraint:cost. They clearly recognize that if the costs of applying a particular accounting standard would exceed the benefits of doing so,then it makes no sense to impose such a standard on reporting entities.The fundamental characteristics, enhancing characteristics,and pervasive constraint that the Boards have mutually identified represent a blending of concepts that were, for the most part,already present in their prior conceptual frameworks.The earlier frameworks of U.S.GAAP and IFRS,however,differed from each other with regard to relative priorities among the characteristics and the wording used to describe them.A less straightforward case arises if there is a loan of resource but the counterparty is not a bank or other financial institution. Would this change the initial observation regarding the nature of financing activity? A case that can be applied here is a pension obligation, for which the counterparty is employees rather than a bank. Adefined benefit pension plan involves the entity deferring settlement of an amount equal to the service cost, incurring interest costs thereon and then repaying the amount owed in the form of a pension. In principle, employees could accept immediate settlement of services rendered instead of entering a pension agreement, and an entity could achieve this immediate settlement by borrowing, with the net effect that the entity substitutes a bank loan for a pension obligation. Either way, the existence of the liability is associated with fiiture interest costs and repayment of capital, and there is a clear distinction between the expenses relating to operating activity (i.e. the service cost that gives rise to the liability) and the method by which these expenses are financed (either by employees or by the bank). A similar argument can also be made for cases other than pension obligations, such as provisions for deferred tax, where the counterparty providing finance (i.e. accepting deferred settlement) is the govemment. For some other provisions, such as those for asset retirement obligations, a clearly identifiable counterparty might be absent: an entity's current operating activity gives rise to a current obligation to incur future cash outflows, but payment will eventually be made to an entity that is not yet known. The absence of a current counterparty does not, however, change the conclusion that the entity's operating activity is being financed by means of deferred settlement. Interest costs are recognised purely as a consequence of this deferral, and not as a consequence of further operating activity, and the situation is no different in substance from a bank loan: the carrying amount of the provision equals the amount that the entity would need to borrow in order to settle its obligation, and the unwinding of the discount rate is equal to the interest costs that would be incurred on the amount borrowed.What Now?Because the conceptual framework of U.S.GAAP isn’t itself authoritative,the recent revisions to it don’t change authoritative U.S.GAAP as documented in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification(TM).The revisions do change authoritative IFRS,however,because the conceptual framework of IFRS is considered authoritative. Chapter 2 of the common conceptual framework is due to be released by the end of 2010.As noted previously,it will address the concept of the reporting entity (PhaseD).The Boards are also currently working on Phases B (Elements and Recognition) and C (Measurement).Although the conceptual framework project is currently being conducted in parallel with numerous standard-level projects,its successful completion will be essential to the ultimate success of all of the Boards’convergence efforts.As I say in the Convergence Guidebook for Corporate Financial Reporting (Wiley),“If different standard setters disagree on the basic concepts of financial reporting,then it is unlikely that those standard setters will ever agree on specific standards.”Now that the FASB and the IASB have agreed on some portions of a common conceptual framework,we see that the Boards are indeed capable of converging their standards at the conceptual level and are intent on achieving even more conceptual convergence in the years ahead.Source: Pounder, Bruce.

国际会计准则会计科目中英对照

国际会计准则会计科目中英对照

国际会计准则会计科目中英对照要说国际会计准则的会计科目中英对照,这事儿听起来是不是有点复杂?但其实你稍微了解一下,就能发现它并不难,甚至可以说挺有意思的。

想象一下,你去一家外国公司做生意,账本上有很多术语你不太明白,稍微转个弯,弄清楚它们的中英文对照,问题就迎刃而解了。

这就像你去外地旅游,碰到不懂的地方,发现一张“翻译单”就觉得一切都能轻松搞定了!要知道,了解这些会计术语可比你去超市找打折商品还省心呢。

看看什么是“资产”吧。

在中文里,资产就是公司拥有的有价值的东西,像现金、设备、库存等等。

那在英文里,资产可不是一眼就能看明白的东西哦。

它就叫“Assets”。

看!是不是简单得很?不过,资产又分很多种,流动资产(Current Assets)和非流动资产(NonCurrent Assets)就是其中两个大类。

流动资产你可以理解成那些一眼看得出来很快能变现的东西,比如现金、存货什么的。

非流动资产呢,就像是你家那台不怎么舍得卖的老电视,买了就很久都不会动的那种,换句话说,它就是那些长期使用的资产,像机器、厂房之类的。

再说说“负债”吧,负债,顾名思义就是公司欠别人的钱。

这可是每个公司都逃不掉的话题。

比如,你从银行贷款,或者向供应商赊账,负债就产生了。

这部分在英文里叫“Liabilities”,简直就是字面意思了,欠的东西得还嘛。

负债也分成短期负债和长期负债,就像你借了一些短期小额的钱,跟你借了十年的房贷不一样,短期负债(Current Liabilities)就是那种快要还掉的账,长期负债(NonCurrent Liabilities)嘛,大家就可以理解成更长时间才能偿还的债务了,反正每个月按期支付,稳稳的。

大家可能会好奇,资产和负债都弄明白了,那企业的“所有者权益”到底是啥?哎,这个其实就是公司老板心头的宝,所有者权益就是公司资产减去负债后的净值。

在英文里呢,叫“Equity”,大家记住这个词,以后听到就知道那是公司“净资产”的代名词。

附录Observations on measuring the differences betweendomestic accounting standards and IASChristopher W. Nobes *University of London, Royal Holloway, Egham Hill, Egham, Surrey TW200EX, United KingdomKeywords:International accounting differences,Rules versus practices,Biases in dataAbstract: In an earlier edition of this journal, Ding et al. use data in GAAP 2001 to assess determinants and effects of differences between domestic and international standards. This paper examines whether those data are suitable for the purposes of academic research by outlining the biases and particular features of GAAP 2001. The main problem with the data for research is that the differences from IAS that it records, which focus on rules, are of varying importance for accounting practice. This raises questions about the equal weighting applied by Ding et al. This paper also questions their distinction between absence of IAS requirements and divergence from those requirements. Some doubts are also raised about the independent variables.1. IntroductionDing et al. (2007) use the data of Nobes (2001) in order to assess the determinants and effects of differences between domestic and international accounting standards (IAS). Many other authors1 refer to the same data for various purposes. As Ding et al. report, the data relate to the accounting rules in force at the end of 2001 in 62 countries, of which they choose 30 countries. The original data for each country were divided into four categories: absence of recognition/measurement rules (compared to IAS), absence of disclosure requirements, inconsistencies in rules (compared to IAS) affecting many enterprises, and inconsistencies affecting certain enterprises. D ing et al. add the first two categories together as ……absence”, and the second two as ……divergence”.As the preparer of the data (called hereafter …GAAP 2001‟), I comment here onits nature and on its use in academic research, such as that of Ding et al. I do so under five headings in Section 2. I then make some observations about their particular paper in Section 3. Conclusions are reached in Section.4. As well as adding some caveats to the findings of Ding et al., this paper might be helpful to future users of the data in GAAP 2001.2. The data2.1. Fit for purpose?Ding et al. (2007, p. 3) refer to the use of Price Waterhouse (PW) data in prior research, which includes that by da Costa et al. (1978), Frank (1979), and Nair and Frank (1980). Nobes (1981) had earlier noted that it is dangerous to use these data for academic research because, among other problems, they were not designed for the purpose. Does use of the data in GAAP 2001 suffer from this problem? Although it is not reported in GAAP 2001, the motivation for that survey was to protect large accounting firms from criticism (by the World Bank and others) resulting from the then recent collapse of companies and economies in the Far East. The survey aimed to reveal the existence of the large differences from IAS (or absences of requirements compared to IAS) in the accounting rules of many countries so that poor reporting would not be blamed on poor auditing. The objective was to focus the attention of regulators in any particular country on improving accounting rules rather than on attacking the audit profession. As such, the survey‟s purpose was not to enable international comparisons, let alone to provide data for academic research. Nevertheless, as long as there are no systematic biases in the data, it might be reasonable to use them for research. For example, whereas the PW data started from a questionnaire that focused on differences between US and UK accounting (thus highlighting differences between these two countries), I am not aware of any such national bias in GAAP 2001. The reference point for comparisons was International Accounting Standards (IAS), which is a bias, but this need not affect the purpose of Ding et al. This bias is discussed later (see Section 2.3).2.2. Rules not practicesIn addition to the national bias in the PWdata, a further problem noted inNobes(1981) is that differences in the rules (de jure differences) are mixed with those relating to practices (de facto differences). How does the GAAP 2001 data compare? GAAP 2001 does not suffer from this problem. It records only de jure differences between national and IAS rules, not de facto differences between national and IAS practice. Although not so serious a limitation as would be created by mixing rules and practices, the concentration in GAAP 2001 on rules rather than practices could cause problems for research, which Ding et al. do not discuss. For example,if a nation‟s rules do not require a particular item to be disclosed but companies often disclose it in practice, then this ……absence” of a rule should perhaps be ignored. Or, if a national system (unlike IAS 38) allows internally-generated research costs to be capitalized but in practice companies do not capitalize, then the ……divergence” in rules is perhaps irrelevant. Another aspect of this is that some de jure differences do not lead to de facto differences in a particular country because the issue is irrelevant. For example, the absence of rules on pension accounting is of little importance in China because Chinese companies do not generally run defined benefit pension plans. More subtly, both ……inconsistency” categories in GAAP 2001 (see the first paragraph of this paper)contain two types of inconsistency with IAS: (i) where the national rule and the IAS is incompatible (e.g. if the national rule required LIFO but IAS required FIFO), and (ii) where the national rule would not ensure IAS compliance (e.g. if the national rule allowed either LIFO or FIFO, but IAS required FIFO).The former inconsistency is more serious. Indeed, the latter may be of no practical importance (e.g. if companies using the national rule choose not to use LIFO).2.3. An IAS biasThe GAAP 2001 data were based on looking at accounting rules from one direction: the content of IAS. So, if a national system had more rules or more restrictive rules than IAS had, this did not show up. For example, US GAAP covered many issues on which IAS was silent (e.g. oil and gas accounting); and UK GAAP did not allow LIFO whereas IAS did. Since these types of difference are not covered by GAAP 2001, they were not included by Ding et al. (as they note in their Appendix A).If these differences were included, it would make the US and the UK look more different from IAS than the ……absence” and ……divergence” measures suggest, but i t would not much affect the position of the Netherlands, where the rules were generally less detailed or less restrictive than IAS.2.4. 111 topics but 79 survey questionsDing et al. (in Appendix A) notice that some topics in the survey do not correspond with the original survey questions asked. This is because the survey results were prepared after an interactive process. First, I prepared the questions by analysing the whole of IAS, assessing which were its key requirements. Country teams of senior techn ical staff replied to the questions. I asked for clarifications, often disputing country answers. Sometimes, new issues turned up. Consensus was eventually reached, and the country teams signed off on the lists of differences. This also explains another feature of GAAP 2001 upon which Ding et al. comment: that the country lists of differences are not in exactly the order of the original questions. They are broadly in the order of: (i) consolidation issues, (ii) assets, and (iii) liabilities. However, an exact order is less important if there is no intention to compare countries.Incidentally, researchers using other data might consider contacting the preparers of the data in order to ask questions such as these.2.5. Respondent behaviorAnother possible bias in the data is behavioral. Some countries like to be seen to be ……international” and therefore to be complying with IAS. This includes many developing countries. By contrast, in 2001 (before the Enron/Andersen debacle), the US was emphasizing that its accounting was different from (i.e. better than) IAS (e.g. Bloomer, 1999). There was thus pressure from some countries to minimize the list of differences and from a few others to maximize it. I believe that we did not give way in the former case, but readers of the US entry in GAAP 2001 might notice that some of the ……divergence” from IAS is abstruse, meaning that US divergence is exaggerated.3. MethodologyThis section contains some specific observations on the paper by Ding et al.(2007), under three headings.3.1. AdditivityDing et al. need to add items together so as to create scores for countries in order to perform numerical analyses. In GAAP 2001, we resisted the temptation to add items together because the items are clearly of differing importance. The above Sections 2.2 and 2.5 mention some examples of this. It would require a great deal of work and subjectivity to weight items according to importance. Not surprisingly, Ding et al. did not do it. However, this might introduce systematic biases. First, because less financially complex countries do not need the most complex rules, several of the ……absences” in developing countries might be of no practical importance. So, the ……absence” scores for those countries are exaggerated.Secondly, as noted earlier, Ding et al. reduce the problem of additivity by creating two distinct to tals: absence and divergence. Nevertheless, they add the two ……inconsistency” categories together, despite the attempt in GAAP 2001 to suggest that the second category was of less widespread practical importance. This might constitute a further systematic bias because, for example, many of the abstruse points of US divergence (see 2.5 above) were deliberately put into the second category. Future researchers could calculate whether their results are robust to, for example, a double weighting of the first category‟s items compared to those in the second.3.2. Are there really two separate dimensions?As noted above, Ding et al. construct measures of two separate ……dimensions” of difference from IAS: absence and divergence. They say (p. 4) that this is their paper‟s first contribution to the literature.However, I suggest that the distinction between the measures might not be useful. In the end, the important issue is whether accounting practices are ……good”2or are comparable among firms nationallyor internationally. The purpose of GAAP 2001 was to catalog various aspects of deficiency in rules thatcould contribute towards poor or non-comparable accounting. In that context, the absence of rules isnot a separate dimension from divergence of rules, as now explained.Suppose that IAS requires FIFO for inventory valuation, Country X requiresLIFO, Country Y allows FIFO or LIFO, and Country Z has no rules. Countries X and Y wil l turn up in Ding et al.‟s ……divergence” from IAS, whereas Country Z will exhibit ……absence”. However, whereas companies in Country X will indeed diverge from IAS practices (assuming that companies obey the rules), companies in Country Y (and in Z) might mostly be consistent with IAS (i.e. use FIFO). In other words, some examples of de jure divergence lead to the same result as absence, and some do not.Most of the de jure absences recorded in GAAP 2001 relate to whole accounting topics (e.g. impairment or pensions), so are likely to be greater causes of de facto divergence than some of the detailed de jure divergences.For researchers who are interested in accounting practice or in the effect of de jure differences on accounting practice, I suggest that there are not two dimensions. The absence of rules on whole accounting topics is likely to be a particularly major cause of divergence in practice.By creating two dimensions, as dependent variables, Ding et al. have to double up all their generating of hypot heses. That is, for each of their five independent variables (determinants), they create hypotheses for both absence and divergence. I suggest that this is artificial, as illustrated in 3.3 below which notes that Ding et al.‟s hypothesis relating to how equity weakness causes divergence is wholly expressed in terms of how equity weakness might affect absence of disclosures.3.3. Independent variables3.3.1. Accounting professionDing et al. make ……the importance of the accounting profession” an independent variable for difference between national standards and IAS. They list it as a ……determinant”. However, in their discussion (e.g. Section 3.1.4), they more carefully say that the two are ……associated”.I suggest that the direction of influence is more likely t o be from accounting to the profession. Nobes (1998) discusses this, and concludes that the amount and style of financial reporting affects the quantity and role of auditors. For example, the presence of large numbers of listed companies in the USA and the requirements for quarterly reporting, extensive disclosure and some use of fair values led to a need formore auditors in the USA in 2001 than in countries where these things were absent (e.g. in Germany).Later, in their 3.2.4, Ding et al. talk of the importance of the profession in the context of setting standards. However, in most countries, the accounting rules are largely controlled by the public sector (e.g. in Belgium, China, France or Germany) or by independent private-sector trusts (e.g. the UK or the US). Japan has moved from the former to the latter. So, again, the profession is not directly relevant as an independent variable.However, there is probably some ……feedback”. For example, because the accounting profession becomes large, it is willing and able to take the lead in standard-setting (e.g. in the US until 1973, in the UK until 1990, and internationally until 2001).3.3.2. Equity marketsWhen formulating an hypothesis for the variables affecting divergence from IAS (in their 3.2.5),Ding et al. discuss the need for an IAS-like quantity of disclosures in strong equity countries. This, they suggest, should lead to smaller divergence from IAS in such countries than in weak equity countries. However, none of the survey topics included in their me asures of divergence (the ……inconsistency” categories of GAAP 2001) were related to disclosure. That is, their hypothesizing relates to the causation of a high quantity of disclosure but their dependent variable is not related to the quantity of disclosure. So, their whole sub-section is of doubtful relevance.My hypothesis would be that strong equity markets need a certain style of recognition and measurement, and comparability of it (broadly IAS style). Therefore, there will be a negative association between equity strength and divergence from IAS.4. ConclusionDing et al. (2007) provide a clear and interesting paper. Their conclusion that the absence of accounting rules on IAS topics in many countries is associated with weak equity markets and with concentrated ownership is convincing, and is indeed the main proposal in the general model of the development of accounting rules in Nobes(1998).In this paper, I provide explanations for various features of GAAP 2001 that had been commented on by Ding et al. I also ask whether those data are suitable for the purposes of academic research, including that by Ding et al. I conclude that they might be, although there are some systematic biases in the data. In particular, (i) the data leave out the aspect of ……divergence” caused by certain national rules (e.g. US or UK) being more detailed or more restrictive than IAS in 2001, (ii) against that, one or more of these countries might have wanted to exaggerate their divergence from IAS, (iii) the equal weighting of widespread and less widespread divergences is questionable, and (iv) the ……absence” scores for developing countries are overstated because some topics are not relevant in those countries. Other potential problems might not be systematic, e.g. the concentration on rules rather than on practices.A question concerning D ing et al.‟s methodology is whether the GAAP 2001 data have meaningful additivity. While accepting that the research requires scores to be created for each country, major problems of weighting need to be considered.More fundamental to Ding et al.‟s paper is the question whether their separate dimensions of absence and divergence are valid. I suggest that, in terms of their effects on differences from IAS practice, some de jure absences are more serious than some de jure divergences, and vice versa. Some of the absences are just extreme forms of divergence, others might be of little practical importance. The separation of the two dimensions creates a cumbersome and artificial doubling up of hypotheses.This paper also questions the direction of causality for the association between accounting rules and the accounting profession. Further it questions the explanation of the hypothesis concerning the effect of equity markets on divergence, given that the dependent variable in the hypothesis concerns disclosure but the data for it does not.AcknowledgementsThe author is grateful for comments on an earlier draft from ErlendKvaal and R.H.

本科毕业论文(设计)外文翻译外文出处International Financial Reporting Standards, 2002:412-415.外文作者International Accounting Standards Board原文:IAS24 Related Party DisclosuresThis reformatted International Accounting Standard supersedes the Standard originally approved by the Board in March 1984. It is presented in the revised format adopted for International Accounting Standards in 1991 onwards. No substantive changes have been made to the original approved text. Certain terminology has been changed to bring it into line with current IASC practice.The standards, which have been set in bold italic type, should be read in the context of the background material and implementation guidance in this Standard, and in the context of the Preface to International Accounting Standards. International Accounting Standards are not intended to apply to immaterial items (see paragraph 12 of the Preface).ObjectiveThe objective of this Standard is to ensure that an entity's financial statements contain the disclosures necessary to draw attention to the possibility that its financial position and profit or loss may have been affected by the existence of related parties and by transactions and outstanding balances with such parties.Scope1. This Standard should be applied in dealing with related parties and transactions between a reporting enterprise and its related parties. The requirements of this Standard apply to the financial statements of each reporting enterprise.2. This Standard applies only to those related party relationships described in paragraph 3, as modified by paragraph 6.3. This Standard deals only with those related party relationships described in (a) to (e) below:(a) Enterprises that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, control, or are controlled by, or are under common control with, the reporting enterprise. (This includes holding companies, subsidiaries and fellow subsidiaries);(b) Associates (see IAS 28, Accounting for Investments in Associates);(c) Individuals owning, directly or indirectly, an interest in the voting power of the reporting enterprise that gives them significant influence over the enterprise, and close members of the family [1] of any such individual;(d) Key management personnel, that is, those persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities of the reporting enterprise, including directors and officers of companies and close members of the families of such individuals; and(e) Enterprises in which a substantial interest in the voting power is owned, directly or indirectly, by any person described in (c) or (d) or over which such a person is able to exercise significant influence. This includes enterprises owned by directors or major shareholders of the reporting enterprise and enterprises that have a member of key management in common with the reporting enterprise. In considering each possible related party relationship, attention is directed to the substance of the relationship, and not merely the legal form.4. No disclosure of transactions is required:(a) In consolidated financial statements in respect of intra-group transactions;(b) In parent financial statements when they are made available or published with the consolidated financial statements;(c) In financial statements of a wholly-owned subsidiary if its parent is incorporated in the same country and provides consolidated financial statements in that country; and(d) In financial statements of state-controlled enterprises of transactions with other state- controlled enterprises.Definitions5. The following terms are used in this Standard with the meanings specified:Related party - parties are considered to be related if one party has the ability to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions.Related party transaction - a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties, regardless of whether a price is charged.Control - ownership, directly, or indirectly through subsidiaries, of more than one half of the voting power of an enterprise, or a substantial interest in voting power and the power to direct, by statute or agreement, the financial and operating policies of the management of the enterprise.Significant influence (for the purpose of this Standard) - participation in the financial and operating policy decisions of an enterprise, but not control of those policies. Significant influence may be exercised in several ways, usually by representation on the board of directors but also by, for example, participation in the policy making process, material intercompany transactions, Inter change of managerial personnel or dependence on technical information. Significant Influence may be gained by share ownership, statute or agreement. With share ownership, significant influence is presumed in accordance with the definition contained in IAS 28, Accounting for Investments in Associates.6. In the context of this Standard, the following are deemed not to be related parties:(a) Two companies simply because they have a director in common, notwithstanding paragraphs 3 (d) and (e) above, (but it is necessary to consider the possibility, and to assess the likelihood, that the director would be able to affect the policies of both companies in their mutual dealings);(b) (i) Providers of finance;(ii) Trade unions;(iii) Public utilities;(iv) Government departments and agencies,In the course of their normal dealings with an enterprise by virtue only of thosedealings (although they may circumscribe the freedom of action of an enterprise or participate in its decision-making process); and(c) A single customer, supplier, franchisor, distributor, or general agent with whom an enterprise transacts a significant volume of business merely by virtue of the resulting economic dependence.The Related Party Issue7. Related party relationships are a normal feature of commerce and business. For example, enterprises frequently carry on separate parts of their activities through subsidiary or associated enterprises and acquire interests in other enterprises - for investment purposes or for trading reasons - that are of sufficient proportions that the investing company can control or exercise significant influence on the financial and operating decisions of its investee.8. A related party relationship could have an effect on the financial position and operating results of the reporting enterprise. Related parties may enter into transactions which unrelated parties would not enter into. Also, transactions between related parties may not be effected at the same amounts as between unrelated parties.9. The operating results and financial position of an enterprise may be affected by a related party relationship even if related party transactions do not occur. The mere existence of the relationship may be sufficient to affect the transactions of the reporting enterprise with other parties. For example, a subsidiary may terminate relations with a trading partner on acquisition by the parent of a fellow subsidiary engaged in the same trade as the former partner. Alternatively, one party may refrain from acting because of the significant influence of another - for example, a subsidiary may be instructed by its parent not to engage in research and development.10. Because there is an inherent difficulty for management to determine the effect of influences which do not lead to transactions, disclosure of such effects is not required by this Standard.11. Accounting recognition of a transfer of resources is normally based on the price agreed between the parties. Between unrelated parties the price is an arm's length price. Related parties may have a degree of flexibility in the price-settingprocess that is not present in transactions between unrelated parties.12. A variety of methods is used to price transactions between related parties.13. One way of determining a price for a transaction between related parties is by the comparable uncontrolled price method, which sets the price by reference to comparable goods sold in an economically comparable market to a buyer unrelated to the seller. Where the goods or services supplied in a related party transaction, and the conditions relating thereto, are similar to those in normal trading transactions, this method is often used. It is also often used for determining the cost of finance.14. Where goods are transferred between related parties before sale to an independent party, the resale price method is often used. This reduces the resale price by a margin, representing an amount from which the re-seller would seek to cover his costs and make an appropriate profit, to arrive at a transfer price to the re-seller. There are problems of judgment in determining compensation appropriate to the re-seller's contribution to the process. This method is also used for transfers of other resources, such as rights and services.15. Another approach is the cost-plus method, which seeks to add an appropriate mark-up to the supplier's cost. Difficulties may be experienced in determining both the elements of cost attributable and the mark-up. Among the yardsticks that may assist in determining transfer prices are comparable returns in similar industries on turnover or capital employed.16. Sometimes prices of related party transactions are not determined under one of the methods described in paragraphs 13 to 15 above. Sometimes, no price is charged - as in the examples of the free provision of management services and the extension of free credit on a debt.17. Sometimes, transactions would not have taken place if the relationship had not existed. For example, a company that sold a large proportion of its production to its parent company at cost might not have found an alternative customer if the parent company had not purchased the goods.Disclosure18. In many countries the laws require financial statements to give disclosuresabout certain categories of related parties. In particular, attention is focused on transactions with the directors of an enterprise, especially their remuneration and borrowings, because of the fiduciary nature of their relationship with the enterprise, as well as disclosures of significant intercompany transactions and investments in and balances with group and associated companies and with directors. IAS 27, Consolidated Financial Statements and Accounting for Investments in Subsidiaries, and IAS 28, Accounting for Investments in Associates require disclosure of a list of significant subsidiaries and associates. IAS 8, Net Profit or Loss for the Period, Fundamental Errors and Changes in Accounting Policies, requires disclosure of extraordinary items and items of income and expense within profit or loss from ordinary activities that are of such size, nature or incidence that their disclosure is relevant to explain the performance of the enterprise for the period.19. The following are examples of situations where related party transactions may lead to disclosures by a reporting enterprise in the period which they affect:(a) Purchases or sales of goods (finished or unfinished);(b) Purchases or sales of property and other assets;(c) Rendering or receiving of services;(d) Agency arrangements;(e) Leasing arrangements;(f) Transfer of research and development;(g) License agreements;(h) Finance (including loans and equity contributions in cash or in kind);(i) Guarantees and collaterals; and(j) Management contracts.20. Related party relationships where control exists should be disclosed irrespective of whether there have been transactions between the related parties.21. In order for a reader of financial statements to form a view about the effects of related party relationships on a reporting enterprise, it is appropriate to disclose the related party relationship where control exists, irrespective of whether there have been transactions between the related parties.22. If there have been transactions between related parties, the reporting enterprise should disclose the nature of the related party relationships as well as the types of transactions and the elements of the transactions necessary for an understanding of the financial statements.23. The elements of transactions necessary for an understanding of the financial statements would normally include:(a) An indication of the volume of the transactions, either as an amount or as an appropriate proportion;(b) Amounts or appropriate proportions of outstanding items; and(c) Pricing policies.24. Items of a similar nature may be disclosed in aggregate except when separate disclosure is necessary for an understanding of the effects of related party transactions on the financial statements of the reporting enterprise.25. Disclosure of transactions between members of a group is unnecessary in consolidated financial statements because consolidated financial statements present information about the parent and subsidiaries as a single reporting enterprise. Transactions with associated enterprises accounted for under the equity method are not eliminated and therefore require separate disclosure as related party transactions. Effective Date26. This International Accounting Standard becomes operative for financial statements covering the periods beginning on or after 1 January 1986.[1] Close members of the family of an individual are those that may be expected to influence, or be influenced by, that person in their dealings with the enterprise.International Accounting Standards Board, International Financial Reporting Standards, 2002:412-415.译文:国际会计准则第24号——关联方披露本国际会计准则重编版取代了理事会于1884批准的原准则,并按国际会计准则自1991年以来采用的修订格式重新编排。

IAS国际会计准则英文版

IAS国际会计准则英文版

IAS国际会计准则英文版IFRS covers a wide range of accounting topics, including the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial information. It provides detailed guidelines on how to account for various assets, liabilities, equity, revenue, expenses, and other financial transactions. Some of the key accounting concepts and principles outlined in IFRS include:1. Fair value measurement: IFRS encourages the use of fair value as the basis for measuring assets and liabilities, where reliable and relevant market prices are available. This ensures that financial statements reflect the current economic value of an entity's assets and liabilities.2. Accrual basis accounting: IFRS requires the recognition of revenues and expenses in the period they are earned or incurred, regardless of when cash is received or paid. This provides a more accurate representation of an entity's financial performance.3. Going concern assumption: IFRS assumes that an entitywill continue its operations in the foreseeable future, unless there is evidence to the contrary. This enables financial statements to reflect the long-term nature of businessactivities and the related financial implications.4. Substance over form principle: IFRS emphasizes the economic substance of a transaction rather than its legal form. This ensures that financial statements reflect the underlying economic reality and prevent manipulation of financial results through artificial structures.However, the implementation of IFRS also poses challenges, particularly for smaller entities and emerging economies. These challenges include the need for additional training and expertise, potential costs associated with system upgrades, changes in accounting policies, and adaptation to new reporting requirements. Nevertheless, the long-term benefits of adopting IFRS are expected to outweigh these challenges, as it promotes global harmonization and convergence of accounting standards.。

国际会计准则2—股份支付下的会计计量【外文翻译】

国际会计准则2—股份支付下的会计计量【外文翻译】

外文翻译外文题目Accounting for share-based payment under NZ IFRS2 外文出处University of Auckland business review,spring2005,V ol,issue2,p39-46外文作者David Emanuel原文:Accounting for share-based payments under NZ IFRS-2I n essence this Standard deals with three primary issues. The first is where “payment” is by the issue of shares or other f orms of instrument. The second is where there is a cash payment, but the amount is derived from share values or a change in share values. And the third is where the provider of goods or services to an entity has a choice about whether he or she gets paid in cash or shares.As a practical matter, the major effect of this standard is on remuneration. Employees may receive part of their remuneration in restricted shares, share appreciation rights, or via share options. In the case of restricted shares the employee may not have to pay “fair value” for the shares. Schemes based on share appreciation involve the employee (eventually) receiving cash that is tied to changes in share prices. In the case of share options, the normal arrangement is that no money is exchanged when the option is granted, and if the option is exercised the grantee (i.e., the employee) pays the exercise price for the new shares that are issued.This article concentrates on the share option accounting, as share options are an international and pervasive form of remuneration, because share options have come in for some criticism, and options involve the use of equity instruments. It is important to note at the outset that some share-based payment schemes will involve the recognition of a liab ility, rather than the recognition of an item that affects “equity”. What are employee share options?A share option gives its holder the right but not the obligation to buy shares in thegranting company, on or before a specified date, and at an agreed price. For example, an employee might be given, at the “grant date”, the right to buy 1,000 shares in Company A at an exercise price of $5 per share, but only after a three-year time period (of waiting, while continuing to be employed) and only over the following two years. Technically, the option is a warrant, as most of the time new shares are created when the options are exercised. Senior employee share options (i.e., executive share options) agreements often have complicated performance aspects associated with them, for example the options can only be exercised if accounting rates of return reach certain targets, or provided the price of the shares on the share market exceeds some benchmark price by vesting date. Sometimes the exercise price might also ch ange. For example, the exercise price might increase at the company’s equity cost of capital, less dividends, each year, or the exercise price might be tied to an international industry index, like the Morgan Stanley Telecommunication Index, which might be appropriate for assessing the performance of companies like Telecom.Some companies issue restricted shares, but in a way that the shares are really options in disguise. For example a senior manager might be issued shares, which he or she has paid for through a loan made by the company to the employee. There is likely to be a restriction on the shares, for example they may not vest until say three years from grant date. However, the manager also holds a put option written by the company, with an exercise price equal to the subscription price of the shares. In sum, if the share price falls, the manager puts the shares back to the company, receives the cash, and pays off the loan. If the share price rises the manager throws the put away. Effectively the manager owns shares and a put, and has a loan from the company. It can easily be shown that this is equivalent to a call option, so executive stock option accounting would be applied even if this is not “technically”an option.In many practical cases options are issued with an exercise price that is close to the share price at the time of the initial grant. That is, options are frequently issued “at the money”. When the share price exceeds the exercise price the option is described as being “in the money”, and t he difference between the share price and the exercise price is described as the option’s intrinsic value. When the share price is less than theexercise price the option is “out of the money”, and the intrinsic value of the option is zero.Impact on compa nies’ profitsThe impact on New Zealand companies’ profits is likely to be quite small as typically employee options outstanding, if any, are a very small proportion of the total ordinary shares outstanding –in the order of 1% or 2% at most. However, in the US, and particularly in certain sectors of the economy, the impact of expensing options will be large. A Bear Stearns’ research team estimated that the impact on companies in the Standard and Poor’s 500 index would be to slice five percent off post-tax net income if those companies had expensed options in 2004. For the top 100 companies on the Nasdaq the impact would be 22% on average. The report indicated that Intel’s net income would have dropped 17% if it had expensed employee stock options and Cisco’s profit would have fallen 24%. Unsurprisingly, the information technology sector companies have been strongly opposed to expensing stock options. So have biotechnology companies. Many of the companies in these sectors will be start-ups, will have negative cash flow and hence will need to go back to financiers from time to time, and will rely extensively on options in remunerating employees. Those companies would not be enamoured with the prospect of reporting even bigger losses as a consequence of expensing options, as they might feel it will impact on their bility to raise additional capital. Further, they have argued that there is no satisfactory way to determine the fair value of the options in the first place.What does the new standard require?IFRS-2indicates that there is an amount that ought to be recognized as an expense. The expense is based on the fair value of the services provided, and if that cannot be done the expense is based on the fair value of the options granted. As it is virtually impossible to assess the fair value of the services provided by the employee, the normal method of determining expense is therefore going to be the fair value of the options actually granted. That is easier said than done, and some of the issues associated with the valuation of employee options are dealt with below.Paragraph 15 tells us over what period the expense associated with the options isrecognized. This is determined to be the vesting period, which in many New Zealand cases is the first two or three y ears of the option’s life. For example when Pumpkin Patch Limited made its initial public offering (IPO) in June 2004, about two million options were issued to senior employees with a vesting period of three years and an exercise period of the following two years. In essence the executives could exercise the options any time between June 2007 and June 2009, provided the market-based performance hurdle was reached. In that case the exercise price was the IPO price, but the options can only be exercised as long as the share price increased by Pumpkin Patch’s equity cost of capital, less dividends, over the vesting period. My estimate of the fair value of these options at grant date, each one of which converts into one share if exercised, is about $0.306 each. In aggregate this translates into a total expense of $600,000 to be recognized over the vesting period –say $200,000 per annum. In practice this calculation would actually be based on the expected number of options to be exercised, rather than the total number, as some options will lapse if employees resign, die, are made redundant, or are dismissed with cause. And obviously the expected number of options to be exercised could change over the vesting period, depending on what the share price was doing. For example in the case of Pumpkin Patch the share price at the time of writing is about $2.75 so the options are “deep in the money” but there is another two years to run before the options vest. Executives are less inclined to leave in this situation, than if the options were out of the money. Therefore, the accounting under IFRS-2 would require the recognition of an expense each year during the vesting period, with a corresponding credit to Equity, to an account likely to be called “Issued Capital (Options)”.Fair value of employee share optionsThe value of an option depends on six variables – the share price at the time, the exercise price, interest rates, time to run to expiry, the volatility of the returns on the underlying shares, and dividends expected to be paid during the life of the options. There are other factors that make the valuation more complex. The major one is that typically employee share options do not vest for a period of time, and then can be exercised at any time after service vesting, subject to any remaining performancehurdles being satisfied, and also subject to any insider trading provisions that may exist. Hence, employee share options are a mixture of European and American options (if they were traded on an exchange they would be known as Bermudan options). If the performance hurdles are market based (as in the Pumpkin Patch case) this, too, needs to be factored into the valuation.With traded options there is a simple rule –don’t exercise all options on non-dividend paying shares early. But while options on markets can be traded, employee share options lack liquidity. Liquidity is valuable, and the only (easy) way in which the managers can create liquidity is to exercise their rights and then sell the shares. So early exercise is common, perhaps motivated by the desire of the employees to diversify their wealth. Effectively they will be allocating some of the monetary wealth away from where their human capital is allocated. And this raises another issue – the employees may be assigning a value to the options that is less than the cost of the options to the company, creating a deadweight loss.All this suggests that valuing employee options is difficult and there is some considerable uncertainty in the final numbers. However they are likely to be a substantially better estimate than the estimate of expense used currently, which is zero. Further, the uncertainty is probably no greater than with other items that we take for granted – like the useful life of an asset for depreciation purposes.Most valuers will use some form of binomial option pricing model to determine “fair value”, and the binomial model can cope with most of the complexity that has been described above. Some will use the Black-Scholes-Merton optionpricing model, and use expected life (not total life) of the option in the formula.The more complicated the option, the more likely a binomial solution will be needed. From the company’s perspective, this will not come for free – firms will need to employ a financial expert to determine the initial fair value, every time the firm grants new options. Of course, it is acknowledged that firms do need to know what options are worth if they are part of a remuneration package, so it can be argued that the net incremental cost of having to “book” the amount into the accounting system is quite low.Concluding commentThe basic accounting for share based payments for remuneration is therefore quite simple –expense an amount over a vesting period. The main difficulties are associated with (a) determining a reliable fair value for the instrument, and (b) determining a reasonable estimate of the number of instruments that will not lapse during the vesting period. The former, fair value, is bound up in some reasonably sophisticated valuation procedures. The latter is a management-derived estimate that will depend upon internal judgments on a year-by-year basis, although by the end of the vesting period one will know how many options will vest. In my view the determination of the fair value will be the more difficult aspect. However, all leading firms of financial advisers will have experts in this area, and will have developed models that can satisfy most computational needs.David EmanuelUniversity of Auckland business review;spring2005,vol.1ssue 2,p39-46译文:国际会计准则2—股份支付下的会计计量股份支付准则大体上是解决这样三个主要的问题。

国际会计准则中英文对照外文翻译文献

国际会计准则中英文对照外文翻译文献

中英文对照外文翻译文献(文档含英文原文和中文翻译)译文:译文(一)世界贸易的飞速发展和国际资本的快速流动将世界经济带入了全球化时代。

在这个时代, 任何一个国家要脱离世界贸易市场和资本市场谋求自身发展是非常困难的。

会计作为国际通用的商业语言, 在经济全球化过程中扮演着越来越重要的角色, 市场参与者也对其提出越来越高的要求。

随着市场经济体制的逐步建立和完善,有些国家加入世贸组织后国际化进程的加快,市场开放程度的进一步增强,市场经济发育过程中不可避免的各种财务问题的出现,迫切需要完善的会计准则加以规范。

然而,在会计准则制定过程中,有必要认真思考理清会计准则的概念,使制定的会计准则规范准确、方便操作、经济实用。

由于各国家的历史、环境、经济发展等方面的不同,导致目前世界所使用的会计准则在很多方面都存在着差异,这使得各国家之间的会计信息缺乏可比性,本国信息为外国家信息使用者所理解的成本较高,在很大程度上阻碍了世界国家间资本的自由流动。

近年来,许多国家的会计管理部门和国家性的会计、经济组织都致力于会计准则的思考和研究,力求制定出一套适于各个不同国家和经济环境下的规范一致的会计准则,以增强会计信息的可比性,减少国家各之间经济交往中信息转换的成本。

译文(二)会计准则就是会计管理活动所依据的原则, 会计准则总是以一定的社会经济背景为其存在基础, 也总是反映不同社会经济制度、法律制度以及人们习惯的某些特征, 因而不同国家的会计准则各有不同特点。

但是会计准则毕竟是经济发展对会计规范提出的客观要求。

它与社会经济发展水平和会计管理的基本要求是相适应的,因而,每个国家的会计准则必然具有某些共性:1. 规范性每个企业有着变化多端的经济业务,而不同行业的企业又有各自的特殊性。

而有了会计准则,会计人员在进行会计核算时就有了一个共同遵循的标准,各行各业的会计工作可在同一标准的基础上进行,从而使会计行为达到规范化,使得会计人员提供的会计信息具有广泛的一致性和可比性,大大提高了会计信息的质量。

论述国际财务报告准则概念框架的主要内容

论述国际财务报告准则概念框架的主要内容

国际财务报告准则概念框架(Conceptual Framework for International Financial Reporting Standards,简称IFRS概念框架)是国际会计准则理事会(IASB)为制定和评估国际财务报告准则提供的一种理论框架。

该框架旨在为制定和评估国际财务报告准则提供一种共同的基础,以确保准则的一致性和可比性。

IFRS概念框架的主要内容包括以下几个方面:财务报告的目标:IFRS概念框架明确财务报告的目标是提供关于企业财务状况、经营业绩和现金流量的信息,以帮助利益相关者做出决策。

财务信息的质量特征:IFRS概念框架规定了财务信息的质量特征,包括可靠性、相关性、可理解性、可比性和及时性。

这些质量特征是评估财务信息是否满足决策需要的重要标准。

财务报表和报告主体:IFRS概念框架定义了财务报表和报告主体的概念,明确了财务报表的构成和报告主体的范围。

财务报表要素:IFRS概念框架规定了财务报表的要素,包括资产、负债、权益、收入和费用等。

这些要素是编制财务报表的基础。

确认和终止确认:IFRS概念框架规定了确认和终止确认的原则,即只有符合一定条件的交易或事项才能被确认,而当交易或事项不再符合确认条件时,应将其从财务报表中剔除。

计量:IFRS概念框架规定了计量的原则和方法,包括历史成本、重置成本、可变现净值、现值等。

这些方法的选择应根据交易或事项的性质和目的来确定。

列报和披露:IFRS概念框架规定了财务报表的列报和披露要求,包括报表格式、内容、附注等。

这些要求旨在确保财务报表能够清晰、完整地反映企业的财务状况和经营业绩。

总之,IFRS概念框架是国际会计准则理事会制定和评估国际财务报告准则的重要理论基础,对于提高财务报告质量和透明度具有重要意义。

and potential investors, lenders and other creditors cannot require reporting entities to provide information directly to them and must rely on general purpose financial reports for much of the financial information they need. Consequently, they are the primary users to whom general purpose financial reports are directed.

国际会计准则了解国际财务报告准则(IFRS)的主要内容及其在国际财务报告中的应用

国际会计准则了解国际财务报告准则(IFRS)的主要内容及其在国际财务报告中的应用

国际会计准则了解国际财务报告准则(IFRS)的主要内容及其在国际财务报告中的应用国际会计准则(International Financial Reporting Standards, IFRS)是由国际会计准则理事会(International Accounting Standards Board, IASB)制定的国际财务报告准则。

IFRS旨在提供一套普遍适用的会计原则和规范,以确保企业在各个国家和地区都能按照相同的标准编制和呈现财务报告。

本文将介绍IFRS的主要内容和其在国际财务报告中的应用。

一、IFRS的主要内容IFRS由一系列准则和附录组成,涵盖了会计核算、财务报告、资产和负债、收入和费用、金融工具等方面的规定。

以下是IFRS的一些主要内容:1. 框架准则:IFRS框架准则为编制和呈现财务报告提供了指导原则,包括财务报告目的、报告实体、财务报表等内容。

2. 具体准则:IFRS包括一系列具体准则,例如《收入确认准则》、《资产计量准则》、《金融工具准则》等,这些准则规定了特定会计事项的处理方法和准则。

3. 揭示要求:IFRS要求企业在财务报表中披露相关信息,以提供更全面的财务信息。

4. 解释性文本:IFRS也发布了一些解释性文本,用于解释和明确准则的适用和解释问题的方法。

二、IFRS在国际财务报告中的应用IFRS目前已成为全球许多国家和地区企业编制财务报告的通用准则。

以下是IFRS在国际财务报告中的应用情况:1. 全球一体化:IFRS的采用使得财务报告标准更加一致和可比较,有利于世界各国企业之间的财务信息交流和理解。

2. 提高透明度:IFRS要求企业披露更多的财务信息,提高了财务报告的透明度,使投资者和其他利益相关者能够更好地理解和评估企业的财务状况和业绩。

3. 降低成本:IFRS的全球统一应用减少了不同国家和地区间的财务报告差异,降低了企业在跨国经营时的成本和复杂性。

4. 风险管理:IFRS要求企业按照公允价值计量财务工具,这使得企业能够更好地管理和评估金融风险。

国际财务报告准则概念框架的主要内容

国际财务报告准则概念框架的主要内容

国际财务报告准则概念框架的主要内容国际财务报告准则(International Financial Reporting Standards,IFRS)的概念框架是由国际会计准则理事会(International Accounting Standards Board,IASB)制定的一项重要指南。

概念框架是IFRS体系的基础,旨在为制定和解释具体国际财务报告准则提供指导。

概念框架主要内容如下:1. 目的和资产特征:概念框架明确了财务报告的主要目的,即为各利益相关方提供与组织经济业绩、财务状况和现金流量有关的信息。

同时,概念框架强调财务报告的信息应具备可比性、连续性和相关性。

2. 文件包括的财务报表:概念框架规定了财务报告包括的主要财务报表,包括资产负债表、利润表、现金流量表和所有者权益变动表。

其中,资产负债表反映了企业的资产、负债和净资产,利润表反映了企业在特定期间内实现的收入、费用和利润,现金流量表反映了企业特定期间内的现金流入和流出情况,所有者权益变动表反映了企业在特定期间内的所有者权益变动。

3. 具体要求:概念框架中,对财务报告各要素的界定和计量提供了准则,包括资产、负债、收入、费用和利润等。

例如,资产被定义为"过去经济事件可能导致对组织经济利益的现在或将来的经济利益的资源",负债被定义为"过去经济事件可能导致对组织经济利益的现在或将来的经济利益的现有义务"。

此外,概念框架还提供了负债和权益的界定和计量原则,包括成本计量和公允价值计量。

4. 其他重要概念:概念框架还涵盖了一些其他重要概念,如会计政策、会计估计、会计判断和会计报告的时间跨度等。

它还讨论了企业连续经营假设、资本维持概念以及财务报表中重要的披露要求。

5. 决策者透明度:概念框架强调财务报告应具备决策者透明度,以提供对决策者有价值的信息,帮助决策者评估企业的经济业绩、风险状况和未来展望。

总体而言,国际财务报告准则概念框架为财务报告提供了基本的指导原则和定义,帮助企业制定准确、可比、透明的财务报告。

1 目的和地位国际会计准则理事会框架是用于财务报表的编制及呈报,它描述了用于编制财务报表的基本概念。

该框架作为国际会计准则理事会制定会计准则的指南,同时也作为那些不由国际会计准则或国际财务报告准则或解释直接解决的会计问题的指南。

在没有标准或解释的情况下,特别是在处理交易的时候,管理层必须使用其判断力来建立和应用会计政策以此确保信息是相关可靠的。

在做出此种判断的时候,国际会计准则理事会要求管理层认真考虑框架中关于资产、负债、收入和费用的定义,确认标准和计量的概念。

2 国际会计准则理事会框架框架包括:>财务报告的目标>确定对财务报表有用的信息的质量特征>定义财务报表的基本要素,以及这些要素在财务报表中的确认和计量。

>提供资本保全的概念3 通用财务报表该框架涉及通用财务报表。

要求业务主体(无论是私营部门还是公共部门)至少每年编报一次通用财务报表,以满足众多外部使用者对信息的共同需要。

因此,该框架不必涉及专用财务报告,例如为税务机关编制的报告、为政府管理部门编制的报告、编制与证券发行有关的招股说明书以及编制与企业合并相关的报告。

3.1 使用者及其信息需求财务报表的主要使用者是现在和潜在的投资者、雇员、贷款人、供应商和其他商业债权人、顾客、政府及其机构与公众。

所有这些类别的使用者都是依靠财务报告来帮助他们作出决策。

该框架认为,因为投资者是企业风险资本的提供者,所以满足投资者需求的财务报告也会满足其他使用者的一般财务信息需求。

所有这些用户群体共同关注的是一个企业创造现金和现金等价物的能力以及产生这些未来现金流的时间性和确定性。

该框架提醒财务报告并不能提供使用者进行经济决策时可能需要的所有信息,一方面,财务报告反映的是过去事件的财务影响,而大多数财务报告使用者所做出的决策是与未来相关的。

另一方面,财务报告仅提供了其使用者有限的非财务信息。

虽然财务报告不能满足用户群的所有信息需求,但是通用财务报告致力于满足所有使用者共同的信息需求。

3.2 财务报告的责任企业的管理层对企业财务报告的编制和呈报负有主要责任。

3.3 财务报告的目标财务报表的目标是提供关于企业财务状况、经营业绩和财务状况变动方面的信息,这种信息对于很大一批使用者进行经济决策是有用的。

财务状况:企业的财务状况受其所控制的经济资源、其财务结构、其资金流动性和偿债能力以及其适应所处经营环境变化的能力的影响。

财务状况表列示了此类信息。

经营业绩:经营业绩是一个企业在已投入的资源上赚取利润的能力。

关于利润数额变动的信息有助于预测企业在现有资源基础上产生现金流量的能力,同时还有助于预测企业利用可能投资的额外资源获取潜在额外现金流的能力。

该框架说明,关于经营业绩的信息主要在综合收益表中提供。

财务状况变动:财务报告的使用者获取企业在报告期从事投资、筹资和经营活动相关的信息。

这些信息有助于评估企业如何产生现金和现金等价物,以及企业如何使用这些现金流。

现金流量表提供了这类信息。

附注和附表:财务报告也包括附注和附表以及其他信息(a)对财务状况表和综合收益表有关项目的解释,(b)对影响企业的风险和不确定性的披露,(c)对没有在财务状况表中确认的所有资源和义务的解释。

4 潜在假设该框架列明了财务报告的潜在假设。

权责发生制:交易和其他事项的影响应当在它们发生时而不是当现金或现金等价物收到或支付时加以确认,以及在与它们相关期间的财务报表中予以报告。

持续经营:财务报告假设企业将会无限期地持续经营下去,或者如果这种假设无效,则披露和不同基础的报告是必需的。

5 财务报告的质量特征这些质量特征是使财务报告提供的信息对投资者、债权人及其他使用者有用的属性。

该框架确定了四种主要的质量特征:>可理解性>相关性>可靠性>可比性5.1 可理解性财务报告提供的信息应以使用者易于理解的方式列示,该使用者要对商业和经济活动以及会计有恰当的了解并且愿意话费适当的精力去研究信息。

5.2 相关性财务报告提供的信息要与影响使用者的经济决策相关。

它能够通过以下两点做到:(a)帮助使用者评价与企业相关的过去、现在和未来事项(2)确认或更改他们过去做出的评价。

重要性是相关性的一个组成部分。

如果信息的遗漏或误报能够影响使用者的经济决策,那么这种信息就是重要的。

及时性是相关性的另一组成部分。

为了使信息有用,信息必须在一定的时间内提供给使用者,在这段时间内使用者最有可能忍耐决策。

5.3 可靠性当财务报告中的信息没有重要错误或偏向,并且被使用者依靠用来忠实反映事件或交易时,信息就是可靠地。

有时在相关性与可靠性之间存在着一种权衡,通过判断提供适当的平衡是必需的。

可靠性受估计的影响,也受财务报告中项目确认和计量的不确定性影响。

这些不确定部分是由于披露造成的,部分是由编制财务报表时的审慎造成的。

谨慎性是指在不确定性条件下作出所需要的估计时,在实施必需的判断中加入一定程度的谨慎,例如不高估资产和收益,不低估负债或费用。

然而谨慎性只能在框架内其他质量特征的范围内实施,特别是在财务报告中交易相关性和忠实地呈报的范围内进行。

谨慎性没有理由故意高估负债或费用,也没有理由低估资产和收益,因为这样编制出来的财务报告不会是中立的,因此,也就不会具有可靠性。

5.4 可比性使用者必须能够比较企业在不同时期的财务报表,以便明确企业财务状况和经营业绩的变化趋势。

使用者还必须能够比较不同企业之间的财务报表。

会计政策的披露对于可比性来说是重要的。

6 财务报告的要素财务报表通过将交易和其他事项按照它们的经济特性分成大类,从而描绘交易和其他事项的财务影响。

这些大类被称为财务报告的要素。

与财务状况(财务状况表)直接相关的要素是>资产>负债>所有者权益与经营业绩(综合收益表)直接相关的要素是>收入>费用现金流量表反映了综合收益表中的收入要素和财务状况表中要素的一些变化。

6.1 要素的定义资产:资产是指企业控制的,由于过去事项而形成的、预期会导致未来经济利益流入企业的资源。

负债:是指企业由于过去事项而承担的现时义务,该义务的履行预期会导致含有经济利益的资源流出企业。

权益:是指企业的资产扣除全部负债以后的剩余利益。

收益:是指在会计期间内经济利益的增加,其表现形式为资产的流入或增值,或者是负债减少。

从而导致权益的增加,但不包括与权益所有者出资有关的那些事项。

收益的定义包含了收入和利得。

收入是在企业正常活动过程中产生的,并且有各种不同的名称,包括销售收入、服务费、利息、股利、使用费和租金等。

利得是指满足收益的定义但可能是也可能不是在企业正常活动过程中产生的其他项目。

利得代表了经济利益的增加,在这一点上与收入的性质没有差别。

因此,在本框架中没有将它列作一种单独的要素。

费用:是指在会计期间内经济利益的减少,其表现形式为资产的流出或折耗,或者是产生了负债,从而导致权益的减少,但不包括与权益所有者分配有关的那些事项。

费用的定义包含了损失以及在企业正常活动过程中发生的那些费用。

在企业正常活动过程中发生的那些费用包括,例如,销售成本、工资和折旧等。

它们通常表现为诸如现金和现金等价物、存货、不动产、厂房和设备等资产的流出或折耗。

损失是指满足费用的定义并且可能是也可能不是在企业正常活动过程中产生的其他项目。

损失代表了经济利益的减少,在这一点上它们与其他费用的性质没有差别。

因此,在本框架中不把它们列作单独的要素。

6.2 财务报告要素的确认确认是将满足要素定义和以下确认标准的项目列入财务状况表或损益表的过程:●与该项目有关的任何未来经济利益可能会流入或流出企业;●该项目具有能够可靠计量的成本或价值。

基于这些一般的标准:当未来经济利益可能流入企业并且资产具有能够可靠计量的成本或价值时,就应在财务状况表中确认该资产。

当一项现时义务的履行会导致含有经济利益的资源可能流出企业并且这一履行将要发生的金额可以可靠计量时,就应在财务状况表中确认该负债。

当与资产的增加或负债的减少有关的未来经济利益的增加已经发生并且能够可靠地计量时,应在综合收益表中确认收益。

这实际上意味着,确认收益的同时,也要确认资产的增加或负债的减少(例如,由于出售商品或劳务引起的资产的净增加,或由于免除应付债务而引起的负债的减少)。

当与资产的减少或负债的增加有关的未来经济利益的减少已经发生并且能够可靠地计量时,应在损益表中确认费用。

这实际上意味着,确认费用是与确认负债的增加或资产的减少同时发生的(例如,预提应付职工款项或计提设备折旧等)。

6.3 财务报告要素的计量计量涉及在财务报告中予以确认和报告的要素分配货币金额。

该框架认为,如今财务报表可以在不同程度上以不同的结合方式采用一系列不同的计量基础,包括:>历史成本>现行成本>可变现(结算)价值>现值历史成本是当今最常用的计量基础,但是历史成本通常也与其他计量基础结合起来使用。

该框架不包括以下概念和原则,即财务报告上特定的要素应该选择使用何种计量基础,在特定的环境中应该选择使用何种计量基础。

然而独立的标准和解释确实提供了这样的指导意见。
