Departure from IFRS(Departure from IFRS(contdcontd))
When assessing whether complying with a specific
requirement in a standard or an interpretation would be somisleading that it would conflict with the objective offinancial statements set out in the Framework, managementconsiders
why the objective of financial statements is not achieved in the
particular circumstances; and how the entitys circumstances differ from those of other entities
that comply with the requirement.
If other entities in similar circumstances comply with the
requirement, there is a rebuttable presumption that the
entitys compliance with the requirement would not be somisleading that it would conflict with the objective of
financial statements set out in the Framework

EstimatesEstimates
An estimate may need revision if circumstances on which estimate was based change, or as a result of new information / more experience
Revision of estimate does not relate to prior periods,and is not the correction of an error
Change in measurement basis applied is a change inpolicy, not a change in estimate
When it is difficult to distinguish if it is a change inpolicy or in estimate, it is treated as change in
estimate

FS do not comply with IFRSs if they contain eithermaterial errors, or immaterial errors made intentionallyto achieve a particular presentation
Errors are material if they could, individually orcollectively, influence the economic decisions of users

Material prior period errors are correctedretrospectively in the first set ofFSauthorised for issue after discovery by:
Restating prior period comparatives of period
when error occurred, or If error occurred before the earliest periodpresented, restating the O/Bs of A/L/E of theearliest period presented
If period-specific or cumulative effects oferror are impractical to determine,correction is made to O/Bs of A/L/E ofearliest period for which that is practicable
