IAS 7/ IndAS 7 : ExamplesQuestions and Answers Series
Q. Ind AS 7 – Non profit sector – Unrestricted Cash – NO Donor imposed restriction
What is the appropriate classification for:
Cash receipts resulting from the sale of donated financial assets (for example, donated debt or equity instruments) by NPOs that
upon receipt were directed without any NPO-imposed limitations for sale and were converted nearly immediately into cash shall be
classified as operating cash flows
A. Operating cash flows
1. Directly related proceeds of insurance settlements, such as the proceeds of insurance on a building
that is damaged or destroyed.
Cash flow classification:
INVESTING CF
1. Receipts from contributions and investment income that by donor stipulation are restricted for the
purposes of acquiring PPE, or other long-lived assets or
2. Establishing or increasing a permanent endowment or term endowment
FINANCING CF
3. Amounts received to settle lawsuits OPERATING CF
4. proceeds of insurance settlements except for those that are directly related to investing or financing
activities, such as from destruction of a building
OPERATING CF
6. 2015Presentation by : CA Varun Sethi
IAS 8/ IndAS 8 : ExamplesQuestions and Answers: IPO
Eg. Ind AS 8 – Initial public offering restatement reporting requirements (SEC clarifications):
At times, a correction of an error pursuant to IAS 8 is required for an initial public offering (IPO) Form S-1 pre-effective amendment.
Discuss the SEC guidance in this respect.
A.
1. The SEC staff provided guidance that after initially disclosing an error correction in a pre-effective amendment, an entity is
required to continue to provide the restatement disclosures and labeling in subsequent Form S-1 amendments until the
registration statement is updated to include a new fiscal year’s annual financial statements.
2. This view applies equally to amendments to initial registration statements that are submitted confidentially under the JOBS Act,
which was enacted in April 2012.
Eg. Ind AS 8 – Initial public offering restatement reporting requirements:
1. A company files an IPO registration statement, including audited financial statements for the three years ended 31 December
2X15. The issuer identifies and corrects a material error in its 2X14 financial statements and files a pre-effective amendment,
which includes restated financial statements for 2X14 and accompanying disclosures.
2. To remove the restatement labeling and disclosure prior to effectiveness, the financial statements for the 12 months ending 31
December 2X16 would need to be filed in the IPO registration statement.

IAS 8/ IndAS 8 : ExamplesQuestions and Answers
Q. Ind AS 8 – How Should INDIRECT EFFECTS of a change in accounting policy be accounted for?
A. Any indirect effects would be recognized in the period of the accounting change and not in the prior period that is affected by the
retrospective application.
Q. Ind AS 8 – Retrospective application of AP
Ind AS 8 states - Changes in accounting policies is allowed IF it results in FS providing reliable & more relevant information
Comment on this.
o The method of accounting is changed for a tax or tax credit that is being discontinued?
A. The method of accounting shall NOT be changed for a tax or tax credit that is being discontinued.
Q. Ind AS 8 – Retrospective application of AP
Ind AS 8 states - Changes in accounting policies is allowed IF it results in FS providing reliable & more relevant information
o The method of transition elected at the time of adoption of a IndAS update is being subsequently changed?.
A. The method of transition elected at the time of adoption of a IndAS update shall NOT be subsequently changed. The issuance
of a IndAS update that requires use of a new accounting policy, interprets an existing policy, expresses a preference for an
accounting policy, or rejects a specific policy may require an entity to change an accounting policy. The issuance of such an update
constitutes sufficient support for making such a change.
8. 2015Presentation by : CA Varun Sethi
IAS 8/ IndAS 8 : ExamplesQuestions and Answers Series
Q. Ind AS 8 – Reporting a Change in Accounting Policy Made in an Interim Period
How to report a Change in Accounting Policy Made in an Interim Period ?
A.
A. A change in accounting policy made in an interim period shall be reported by retrospective application. However, the
impracticability exception may not be applied to pre-change interim periods of the fiscal year in which the change is made.
B. When retrospective application to pre-change interim periods is impracticable, the desired change may only be made as of the
beginning of a subsequent fiscal year.

1. IAS 7 reads: The amount of cash flows arising from operating activities is a key indicator of the extent to which the
operations of the entity have generated sufficient cash flows to repay loans, maintain the operating capability of the
entity….
However, E-Commerce companies are investing huge sums in digital advertising and IT infrastructure etc.? Their
operating cash flows aren’t commensurate with their requirements for cash burn. Is this of concern if any?
2. How does the cash flows of a start up company compare to cash flows of relatively resilient companies?
3. Why is it essential to carefully classify Cash flows between operating, investing and financial activities?
4. How does the Cash flow statement prepared using IAS 7/ IndAS 7 finally consumed/ used/ interpreted by the
investment and analyst community?
5. What is the relation between the Cash flow from operations (before Working capital changes) and EBITDA/ EBIT/
PAT?

: IAS 7 Disclosure initiative - IASB
To complement the work being done by the IASB in its Conceptual Framework for

Disclosure
Initiative of IASB
The objectives of the Exposure Draft Disclosure Initiative (Proposed amendments to
IAS 7) are to improve:

activities, excluding equity items; and
2. disclosures that help users of financial statements to understand the liquidity of an
entity.
Objectives of the
Exposure Draft
The IASB developed the amendments in ED in response to requests from investors,
including those received at the Financial Reporting Disclosure Discussion Forum and
those included in the Feedback Statement which was issued in May 2013.
Reason for the
amendment
18. Components of financing activities
Para - 44A : An entity shall provide a reconciliation of the amounts in the opening and closing statements of
financial position for each item for which cash flows have been, or would be, classified as financing activities in
the statement of cash flows, excluding equity items. The reconciliation shall include:
1. Opening balances in the statement of financial position;

Financing activities
Cash equivalents are short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known
amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. an investment
normally qualifies as a cash equivalent only when it has a short maturity of, say, three months or less
from the date of acquisition.

Other matters
• An overriding test is that cash equivalents are held to meet short-term cash requirements of the entity rather than
for investment or other purposes.
• For example, a three month loan or deposit given to a party to help in managing party’s short-term liquidity position is not a cash
equivalent because it is given for a purpose other than to manage its own short-term cash requirements.
• In view of variety of cash management practices and banking arrangements, an entity is required to disclose the
policy which it adopts in determining the composition of cash and cash equivalents.
