Our ‘Insights into IFRS 8’ series is designed to illustrate how IFRS 8 should be applied and it provides guidance and insight in some problematic areas. We also include several examples illustrating the Standard’s requirements.
This article sets out illustrative disclosures required under IFRS 8 and IAS 34 ‘Interim Financial Reporting’ for a fictional entity, Illustrative Corporation Ltd and its subsidiaries (the Group) that presents half-yearly condensed interim financial statements.
The form and content of IFRS financial statements of course depend on the reporting entity’s activities and transactions. IFRS 8’s management approach results in an entity’s interim disclosures being as unique as any disclosures that would be made at the end of any annual reporting period. We have illustrated in this article the minimum disclosures required taking into consideration both IFRS 8 and IAS 34.
We hope you find the information in this article helpful in giving you some insight into IFRS 8. If you would like to discuss any of the points raised, please speak to your usual Grant Thornton contact or your local member firm.
