In the News. An item is disclosed when it is not included in the financial statements, but appears in the notes of the financial statements. Cash can be paid out in an earlier or later period than the period in which obligations are incurred.
Related expenses result in the following two types of accounts:. Accrued expenses are a liability with an uncertain timing or amount; the uncertainty is not significant enough to qualify it as a provision. One example would be an obligation to pay for goods or services received from a counterpart, while the cash is paid out in a later accounting period—when its amount is deducted from accrued expenses.
Accrued expenses shares characteristics with deferred revenue. One difference is that cash received from a counterpart is a liability to be covered later; goods or services are to be delivered later—when such income item is earned, the related revenue item is recognized, and the same amount is deducted from deferred revenues. Deferred expenses, or prepaid expenses or prepayment, are an asset. These expenses include cash paid out to a counterpart for goods or services to be received in a later accounting period—when fulfilling the promise to pay is actually acknowledged, the related expense item is recognized, and the same amount is deducted from prepayments.
Deferred expenses share characteristics with accrued revenue. One difference is that proceeds from a delivery of goods or services are an asset to be covered later, when the income item is earned and the related revenue item is recognized; cash for the items is received in a later period—when its amount is deducted from accrued revenues. The matching principle is a culmination of accrual accounting and the revenue recognition principle. According to the principle, expenses are recognized when obligations are:.
If no cause-and-effect relationship exists e. Prepaid expenses are not recognized as expenses, but as assets until one of the qualifying conditions is met resulting in a recognition as expenses. If no connection with revenues can be established, costs are recognized immediately as expenses e. Prepaid expenses, such as employee wages or subcontractor fees paid out or promised, are not recognized as expenses cost of goods sold , but as assets deferred expenses , until the actual products are sold.
The matching principle allows better evaluation of actual profitability and performance. Completed projects. IFRS Foundation news. Meetings and events calendar. IFRS Foundation speeches.

IAS 39 was superseded by IFRS 9 subject to: the accounting policy choice about whether or not to continue applying the hedge accounting requirements in IAS 39 in accordance with paragraph 7.
Recognition and derecognition A financial instrument is recognised in the financial statements when the entity becomes a party to the financial instrument contract. Measurement A financial asset or financial liability is measured initially at fair value. The following are measured at amortised cost: held to maturity investments—non-derivative financial assets that the entity has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity; loans and receivables—non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market; and financial liabilities that are not carried at fair value through profit or loss or otherwise required to be measured in accordance with another measurement basis.
The following are measured at fair value: financial assets and financial liabilities held for trading—this category includes derivatives not designated as hedging instruments and financial assets and financial liabilities that the entity has designated for measurement at fair value.
All changes in fair value are reported in profit or loss. These are measured at fair value. Unrealised changes in fair value are reported in other comprehensive income. Realised changes in fair value from sale or impairment are reported in profit or loss at the time of realisation.
Standard history. Following that, the Board made further amendments to IAS a in March , to enable fair value hedge accounting to be used for a portfolio hedge of interest rate risk; b in June , relating to when the fair value option could be applied; c in July , to provide application guidance to illustrate how the principles underlying hedge accounting should be applied; d in October , to allow some types of financial assets to be reclassified; and e in March , to address how some embedded derivatives should be measured if they were previously reclassified.
