This document discusses the conceptual framework of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB). It defines the conceptual framework as a coherent system that provides guidance for developing consistent accounting standards. It discusses the objectives of the conceptual framework, which are to provide useful information to decision makers. The key issues in developing conceptual frameworks are discussed, including principles-based versus rules-based standards, information for decision making, and users of accounting information. The document also covers definitions of elements in financial statements such as assets, liabilities, and equity.
1) The conceptual framework provides the theoretical basis for accounting standards and financial reporting. It establishes the objectives of providing useful information to decision makers and the qualitative characteristics of relevant, faithful, comparable, and understandable information.
2) The framework outlines key elements of financial statements including assets, liabilities, equity, revenues, and expenses. It also establishes recognition and measurement assumptions, principles like cost and revenue recognition, and constraints like materiality.
3) The framework is intended to guide standard setting and ensure financial reports meet the needs of users in decision making.
international accounting standards (IAS) 16EssaBaig18
IAS 16 concerns accounting for property, plant and equipment (fixed assets). It requires fixed assets to be recognized as assets if future economic benefits are probable and their costs can be reliably measured. The standard prescribes using the cost model, carrying assets at cost less depreciation and impairment, or the revaluation model, carrying assets at fair value less subsequent depreciation and impairment. IAS 16 aims to make financial reporting more consistent globally to improve transparency, trust, and international trade and investment.
ACTIVITY BASED BUDGETING & BUDGETING CYCLEANMOL GULATI
The budgeting cycle has four main phases: preparation, approval, execution, and evaluation. In the preparation phase, a budget is created by estimating expenses. The approval phase involves getting sign-off on the budget from stakeholders. During the execution phase, the approved budget is implemented by tracking spending. In the evaluation phase, the budget is reviewed and assessed to see if targets were met and inform the next budget cycle. Activity-based budgeting takes a more rigorous approach than traditional budgeting by analyzing the activities that drive costs and allocating resources based on activity levels.
International financial accounting standardsRaziya Hameed
International Accounting Standards were established in 1973 and were later replaced by International Financial Reporting Standards in 2001 to provide a common set of global accounting standards. IFRS are now accepted in over 120 countries and aim to increase transparency and comparability of financial information across international borders. The standards are set by the International Accounting Standards Board and cover key aspects of financial reporting such as accounting elements, qualitative characteristics, objectives, and underlying assumptions. While IFRS adoption has costs, there are significant benefits for international trade, investment and comparability between global companies.
The document discusses the requirements of IAS 1 regarding the presentation of financial statements. It provides an overview of the components that must be included in a complete set of financial statements according to IAS 1, such as the statement of financial position, statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity, statement of cash flows, and accompanying notes. It also covers the principles of fair presentation, going concern assumption, materiality, and classifications of assets and liabilities as current vs. non-current.
The document discusses various aspects of income tax in India such as residential status, types of income, tax rates, deductions, and allowances. It provides definitions for key terms, outlines the process for determining residential status, and specifies tax treatment and exemptions for different types of income like salary, gratuity, pension, and perquisites. The document also details income tax slabs and surcharge rates for individuals, HUFs, firms, and companies.
This document discusses concepts related to tax planning and management. It begins by defining tax and outlining the stages of tax imposition. It then distinguishes between tax planning, tax evasion, and tax avoidance. Tax planning involves legally arranging one's finances to minimize tax burden while still meeting social and economic goals. Tax evasion is illegal and involves suppressing income or inflating expenses to reduce taxes owed. Tax avoidance uses loopholes to technically satisfy the law but not the intent. The document concludes by discussing tax management, which involves complying with tax laws and procedures like deducting, collecting, and paying taxes owed.

Advantages and Disadvantages
This document discusses different methods for taxpayers to minimize tax liability: tax planning, tax avoidance, and tax evasion. Tax planning involves legally taking advantage of exemptions, deductions, and rebates to reduce taxes. Tax avoidance also reduces taxes legally by exploiting loopholes. Tax evasion illegally underreports income or falsifies information to pay less tax than owed. The document provides examples of actions considered tax planning, such as certain investments, and tax evasion, like falsely claiming donations. Overall it aims to explain legal and illegal options and their objectives in paying the minimum required tax.

The document also discusses the objectives of accounting theory in providing a basis for predicting accounting behaviors and events. It notes that accounting theory has evolved from a focus on stewardship to incorporating financial reporting and management accounting. Various accounting standards bodies and their roles are also outlined.
Management accounting involves collecting and analyzing both financial and non-financial information to help managers plan strategies, set goals, and make decisions. It differs from financial accounting in that it is for internal use by management rather than external reporting. Some key tools of management accounting include budgeting, cost accounting, financial analysis, and decision making techniques. The information provided by management accounting aims to increase efficiency, support effective planning and control, and maximize profitability for the organization.
Factoring and forfaiting are forms of invoice financing that provide liquidity to companies. Factoring involves the sale of accounts receivable to a factor at a discount, who then takes on the responsibility of collection and provides financing against the receivables. Forfaiting specifically refers to financing of international trade receivables without recourse to the exporter. Key differences are that forfaiting provides 100% financing without recourse and guarantees against political and exchange rate risks, for longer tenors of 3-5 years, while factoring also includes receivables administration and is for shorter terms. Factoring is more widely used in India while forfaiting remains less developed due to issues like high costs and lack
The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) is an independent organization that establishes International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) accepted globally. The IASB consists of 14 members from different countries and backgrounds who meet publicly to develop high-quality, transparent accounting standards. It seeks to develop a single set of global standards in the public interest and operates independently without political influence through an established due process.
This document discusses various topics related to tax planning including tax evasion, tax avoidance, tax planning, tax management, the need for tax planning, and limitations of tax planning. It defines key terms such as tax evasion as illegally avoiding tax liability, tax avoidance as legally minimizing tax liability, and tax planning as arranging one's affairs to reduce tax liability. The document notes the importance of tax planning to save tax, defer liability, and gain incidental benefits, but also limitations such as complexity that may require expert advice or lead to litigation.
IAS-1: Presentation of Financial StatementsAmit Sarkar
IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements sets out the overall requirements for financial statements, including how they should be structured, the minimum requirements for their content and overriding concepts such as going concern, the accrual basis of accounting and the current/non-current distinction.

It explains that a funds flow statement depicts changes in working capital between two balance sheet dates by analyzing changes in current assets and current liabilities. The summary also shows how to prepare schedules of changes in working capital and sources and uses of funds statements to analyze the flow of funds.
Responsibility accounting is a system that assigns revenues and costs to responsibility centers based on who has responsibility over that area. It collects both planned and actual accounting information for these centers. Key features include identifying responsibility centers, assigning controllable costs, setting targets, comparing actual to planned performance, and reporting deviations. Responsibility centers can be cost centers, profit centers, or investment centers depending on if they are responsible for costs, revenues, or both. This system aims to improve performance by assigning responsibility and enabling better planning, control, decision-making, and management by exception. However, it requires proper organizational structure and delegation for successful implementation.
Adjusting entries bring account balances up to date at the end of an accounting period by recording changes that have not been entered in the accounting records, such as items that have been deferred or accrued. Adjusting entries are necessary when using accrual basis accounting to adhere to the matching principle. Adjusting entries are internal transactions that do not have a source document and involve at least one income statement and one balance sheet account, but do not affect the cash account.
This document provides an overview of accounting standards for inventories according to IAS 2. It defines inventories as assets held for sale, in production, or as supplies.

The document discusses conceptual frameworks for accounting. It provides definitions and explanations of key concepts:
- A conceptual framework establishes the objectives and fundamentals of financial accounting and reporting. It defines elements like assets, liabilities, and income and provides guidance for standards.
- Frameworks aim to bring consistency to standards and defend neutrality against political interference. However, critiques argue frameworks rely on circular reasoning and undefined terms, failing to provide an empirical scientific basis for standards.
- Alternatively, frameworks could be seen as establishing professional values and policies rather than scientific principles, guiding practice through articulating trade-offs in qualities like relevance and reliability. Overall the document examines perspectives on the nature and purpose of conceptual frameworks.
The document provides an overview of conceptual frameworks in accounting. It discusses what a conceptual framework is, its objectives and importance. Key points include:
- A conceptual framework establishes the concepts and principles that underlie the standards, providing consistency and guidance for standard-setting.

a.Convergence Efforts Made Toward the GAAP and IFRS Standards Conver.pdfanukoolelectronics
a.Convergence Efforts Made Toward the GAAP and IFRS Standards Convergence Goal on the
Financial Performance by Business Enterprises
The FASB has taken steps to: consider promptly any significant areas of deficiency in financial
reporting that might be addressed through the standard-setting process; promote the international
convergence of accounting standards concurrent with improving the quality of financial
reporting; and improve the common understanding of the nature and purposes of information
contained in financial reports.
Addressing the objectives of financial reposting by business enterprises, the SFAS CON 1 states
that financial reporting should provide information that is useful to current and potential
investors and creditors, or any other users, in their decision-making processes regarding
investments and credit, including assessing the amounts, the timing and uncertainty of
prospective cash receipts or cash inflows from dividends or interest earned, the proceeds from a
sale, or redemption or maturity of loans or securities. Reports should include information about a
company’s economic resources, claims on those resources and the effects of those transactions,
events, and circumstances that impact the resources and any claims upon them, and should be
comprehensible to anyone who has a reasonable understanding of business and economic
activities and who needs to examine or study the information with reasonable diligence.
Research conducted by the FASB on financial performance, reported by business enterprises
and their users, found that users have a strong interest in a statement of cash flows that reports
cash flows under the direct method. Users also prefer financial statements that provide greater
disclosure of information with predictive value. The research indicates that there is no across-
the-board dissatisfaction with, or demand for, sweeping change in the way financial statements
are displayed. Users also feel that key, commonly used measures lack clarity in definition of
terms such as ‘operating free cash flow,’ ‘return on invested capital,’ and adjusted, normalized or
operating earnings. Although net income is frequently used as a starting point for analysis, it is
not in the top three most important measures identified by users. There is also low demand for
comprehensive income presentation in a single statement; however, there was no transparent
opposition to providing comprehensive income items in another form.
b. Convergence Efforts Made Toward the GAAP and IFRS Standards Convergence Goal on the
Revenue Recognition Area
Accounting standards designed for public capital markets are burdensome, not only due to their
complex nature, but also due to their adoption of the IFRS standards. This is especially apparent
when applied to small and medium-sized companies, since they follow simple accounting
principles that are not designed for the complexity of transactions that some small companies
enter into, such as derivatives.

It defines elements like assets, liabilities, and equity, and provides guidance on recognition, measurement, and disclosure in financial statements. The framework ensures accounting standards are consistent and addresses important issues. It is developed by regulatory bodies like the IASB to provide a standardized set of principles for preparing financial statements that are useful to investors and creditors for decision making.
Certification and Training in International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS)iACT Global
International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) is a set of accounting standards, developed by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) that is becoming the global standard for the preparation of public company financial statements.
India is one of the over 100 countries that have or are moving towards IFRS (International Financial Reporting standards) convergence with a view to bringing about uniformity in reporting systems globally, enabling businesses, finances and funds to access more opportunities.
ICAI has decided to implement IFRS in India. The Ministry of Corporate Affairs has also announced its commitment to convergence to IFRS.
This document provides an overview of the key concepts in the Canadian financial reporting environment covered in Chapter 1 of the textbook "Test Bank for Intermediate Accounting, Twelfth Canadian Edition". It discusses the objectives of financial reporting which include allocating resources efficiently and providing reliable information to stakeholders. It also describes the major entities that influence accounting standards in Canada such as the Canadian Accounting Standards Board and the International Accounting Standards Board. Finally, it addresses the importance of generally accepted accounting principles and the role of professional judgement in applying these principles.

The document discusses John Rawls' theory of justice as presented in his book "A Theory of Justice". It summarizes some of Rawls' key ideas including the original position, veil of ignorance, difference principle, and justice as fairness. Rawls proposes two principles of justice: 1) equal basic liberties for all, and 2) inequalities must benefit the least advantaged and arise from fair equality of opportunity. He argues justice should be defined by impartial principles that would be agreed to from an initial position of equality.

The document discusses capital structure and its theories. It defines capital structure as the proportion of long-term debt and equity used to finance a company's assets. It then discusses various determinants of capital structure and different capital structure theories, including the net income, net operating income, traditional, and Modigliani-Miller approaches. The document also covers the concept of point of indifference in capital structure and how to calculate earnings per share under different financing alternatives using an example company.
An accepting house is a British financial institution that specializes in accepting and guaranteeing bills of exchange, facilitating lending. They guarantee bills, using their financial reputation to charge fees. Accepting houses provide liquidity to secondary markets and banking services domestically and abroad. The Accepting Houses Committee represents accepting houses to coordinate with the Treasury and Bank of England on policy.
This document discusses corporate-level strategy, which involves selecting different businesses and industries for a firm to compete in order to gain a competitive advantage. It defines diversification and different levels and types. Reasons for diversification include gaining market power, capturing synergies between business units, and financial motives. Related diversification seeks economies of scope while unrelated diversification pursues financial synergies. The document analyzes strategies of companies like P&G, J&J, Campbell Soup, United Technologies, and Textron. It also discusses portfolio analysis tools for evaluating a firm's mix of businesses.
Situational theory focuses on follower characteristics as the key situational element in determining effective leadership. The theory proposes that a leader's style should depend on follower readiness, with telling, selling, participating, and delegating styles being used for followers with low, moderate, high, and very high readiness respectively. The Hersey-Blanchard model depicts leadership styles based on the amount of task-oriented and relationship-oriented behavior a leader exhibits, with the optimal style dependent on follower willingness and ability.
This document describes different types of cash books used to record cash transactions. A cash book is a book of primary entry that records all cash receipts on the debit side and cash payments on the credit side. It serves as both a journal and ledger for the cash account. The key types discussed are simple, double-column, and triple-column cash books. A simple cash book records cash transactions in one column, while double-column and triple-column cash books record cash and additional accounts like discounts or bank in multiple columns. Petty cash books are also mentioned for recording small expenses.
The document discusses the key aspects of a cash book, which is used to record all cash receipts and payments. It notes that a cash book has two parts - cash receipts and cash payments. Transactions are recorded chronologically with receipts on the debit side and payments on the credit side. The cash book serves as both a journal and ledger. It allows the business owner to ascertain cash and bank balances without physically counting amounts. The document also discusses features of double-column and triple-column cash books, which include additional columns for discounts, and contra entries that affect both cash and bank balances.
The document discusses ledgers and their role in accounting. It defines a ledger as the principal book of accounting that contains accounts where transactions are recorded. A ledger collects all accounts from journals and allows the net result of transactions for a particular account on a given date to be ascertained. It provides details on ledger format and maintenance, including how ledgers are composed by posting transactions from other books, can include subsidiary ledgers, and are balanced to maintain the accounting equation.
The document defines what a journal is and describes the different types of accounts. It then provides more details about each type:
- A journal is a book of original entry where transactions are first recorded before being posted to ledgers. It defines three types of accounts: personal, real, and nominal.
- Personal accounts record transactions with individuals or entities. Real accounts relate to assets. Nominal accounts relate to income/expenses and increase/decrease equity.
- The document outlines rules for debit and credit entries. Assets and expenses are increased by debits, and liabilities/equity/revenues are increased by credits. Total debits must equal total credits for each transaction.

An import error occurs when a program fails to import a module or library, disrupting its execution. In languages like Python, this issue arises when the specified module cannot be found or accessed, hindering the program's functionality. Resolving import errors is crucial for maintaining smooth software operation and uninterrupted development processes.
2. WHAT IS THE CONCEPTUAL
FRAMEWORK?
The Conceptual Framework (or “Concepts
Statements”) is a body of interrelated objectives
and fundamentals. The objectives identify the
goals and purposes of financial reporting and the
fundamentals are the underlying concepts that
help achieve those objectives. Those concepts
provide guidance in selecting transactions, events
and circumstances to be accounted for, how they
should be recognized and measured, and how they
should be summarized and reported.
4/16/2020 2ASST . PROF AMAN
3. What is Conceptual Framework?
A conceptual framework of accounting is a
structured theory of accounting.
Highest theoretical levels: it states the scope and objective
of financialreporting
Level II (Fundamental Conceptual Level): it identifies and
defines the qualitative characteristic of financial
information (such as relevance, reliability, comparability,
timeliness and understandability) and the basic elements of
accounting reports (such as assets, liabilities, equity,
income, expenses, andprofit)
Level III ( The Lower Operational Levels): it deals with
priciples and rules of recognition and measurement of the
basic elements and type of information to be displayed in
financialreports.
4/16/2020 3ASST . PROF AMAN
4. What is Conceptual Framework?
FASB has defined the conceptualframework as:
Acoherent system of interrelated objectives and
fundamentals tha is expected to lead to
consistent standards and that prescribes the
nature, function and limits of financial accounting
andreporting.
4/16/2020 4ASST . PROF AMAN
5. Whyhave a conceptual
framework?
Numerous problems have arisen because of the
lack of a general theory
Allowing entities to select their own accounting
methods within the boundaries of generally
accepted accounting principles is deemed
desirable bysome.
Inconsistency of practice has been seen as a
problem. Gellein, a former member of both the
APB and FASB, commented that because of the
lack of conceptual framework, ‘Gresham’s law
sometimes takes over: bad practices at times
triumph over goodpractices.’
4/16/2020 5ASST . PROF AMAN
6. Why have a concept ual
framework?
Storey:
The … solutions resulting from the play-it-by-ear approach
have rarely turned out to be lasting solutions (even taking into
considerationthe dynamicnature of accounting
Solomons:
A principle or practice would be declared to be ‘right’
because it was generally accepted ; it would not be
generally accepted because itwas ‘right’

interferencein the neutralityof accounting reports.

(1987-2000)FASB issued seven concept statements covering thefollowing topics:
Objectives of financialreporting by bussiness enterprisesand non-profit
organisations

4/16/2020 7ASST . PROF AMAN
8. Background t o concept ual f ramework
projects
IAS 8, paragraph 10, requires that in the absence of an IASB standard
or interpretation that spesifically applies to a transaction, other
event or condition, management must use judgement in developing
and applying an accounting policy that results in information that is:
Relevant to the economic decision making needs of users; and
Reliable, in that the financial statements
Represent faithfully the financial position, financial performance and
cash flows of the entity
Reflect the economic substance of transactions, other events and
conditions, and not merely the legalform
Are neutral, i.e.free from bias
Are prudent
Are complete inallmaterial respects
4/16/2020 8ASST . PROF AMAN
9. Background t o concept ual f ramework
projects
IAS 8, paragraph 11,provides a ‘hierarchy’of
accounting pronouncements. It says that in making
judgementrequiredin paragraph 10:
Management shall refer to, and consider the
applicability of,the following sources in descending
order:
The requirementsand guidence in standards and
interpretations dealing with similar and related
issues;and
The definitions, recognition criteria and
measurement concepts for assets, liabilities,income
and expenses in the framework.

10. The Benefit
The benefits which the Australian Accounting Research Foundation
(AARF) indicated would emanate from a successful framework are as
follows:
Reporting requirements will be more consistent and logical
because they will stem from an orderly set of concepts.
Avoidance of reporting requirements will be much more difficult
because of the existence of all-embracingprovision
The boards that establish the requirements will be more
accountable for their actions in that the thinking behind spesific
requirements will be more explicit, as will any compromises that
may be included in particularaccounting standards
The need for specific accounting standards will be reduced to
those circumstances in which the appropriate application of
concepts is not clear-cut, thus minimising the risks of over-
regulation

ConSceeptttuianlfgrameworkshave an
important role in the standard-setting
process becausethey provide aframework
for the development of a body of coherent
standars basedon consistentprinciples.
Some recent standars such as IAS 39 have
been criticised as being overly rules-
based.
However,rules-based standars have some
advantages which explains their popularity,
including increased comparability and
verifiabilityfor auditorsand regulators.

16. Information for Decision Making
Accounting information for decision making begins with the
stewardship function.
Later, information for decision making implies more than
information onstewardship.
First, the users of financial
information are greatly
expanded to include all
resource providers, recipients
of goods and services, and
parties performing a reviewor
oversight function.
Second, accounting information is seen
as input data for the predictionmodels of
users.
Third, whereas stewardship is
concerned mainly with the past in
order to asses what has been
accomplished, prediction look
towards thefuture.
4/16/2020 16ASST . PROF AMAN
19. USERS OF ACCOUNTING INFORMATION
According toSAC 2 paragraphs 16-19, there
are threecategories of user groups:
1.Resource providers
2.Recipientsof goods and services
3. Parties performing a review or
oversight function
4/16/2020 19ASST . PROF AMAN
20. Paragraph 27 providing users with
information useful for making and evaluating
decisions on the allocation of scarceresources
willalso discharge the stewardship duty.
FASB inSFAC 1 users of externallyreported
accounting information are present and
potential investors, creditors,and other users.

benefits are expectedto flow to the entity.
4/16/2020 21ASST . PROF AMAN
22. Paragraph 49 (b) Liability is a present
obligation of the entity arising from past events,
the settlement of which is expected to result in
an outflow from the entity of resources
embodying economicbenefits.
Paragraph 49 (c) Equity is the residual interest
in the assets of the entity after deducting all its
liabilities.
4/16/2020 22ASST . PROF AMAN
23. Paragraph 70(a) Income is increases in economic
benefits during the accounting period in the form of
inflows or enhancements of assets or decreases of
liabilities that result in increases in equity, other
than those relating to contributions from equity
participants.
Paragraph 70 (b) Expenses are decreases in
economic benefits during the accounting period in
the form of outflows or depletions of assets or
incurrences of liabilities that result in decreases in
equity,other than those relating to distributions to
equity participants.
4/16/2020 23ASST . PROF AMAN
24. Paragraph 83 Recognition of elements
depends ontwo criteria:
1. It is probable that any future economic
benefits associated with the item willflow to
or from the entity; and
2. The item has a cost or value that can be
measured withreliability.

26. National conceptual frameworks, such as those
developed in the United States and Australia,
have played a key role in guiding standard-
settings initiatives.
Although existing conceptual statements have
not been recently issued, convergence of
accounting standards has highlighted the
importance of conceptual statements that
underlie the development of accounting
standards and the qualityof financial reporting.
4/16/2020 26ASST . PROF AMAN
27. FASB
It has been recommended that the FASB should
improve its conceptual framework in the following
ways:
More clearly articulate how the trade-offs among
relevance, reliability and comparability should be
made
Eliminate the inconsistencies betweenthe discussion
of the earning process (found inSFAC No. 5)and the
definitions of the elements of financial statements
(found inSFAC No. 6)
Establish a paradigm for selectingfrom among
possible measurementattributes
4/16/2020 27ASST . PROF AMAN
28. The FASB is considering changes to its concept
statements in threecurrent agenda projects:
1. The Revenue Recognition project is resolving
inconsistencies between the earning process
and definitions ofelements
2. The Liabilities and Equity project is
reconsidering the distinction between liabilities
and equity and aspects of the liabilities
definitions.
3. The FairValue project,FASB willconsider how
the qualitative characteristics at relevance and
reliability should be applied in selecting an
appropriate measurementattribute.

29. IASB
The original framework of IASB was issued in
1989 and has not been substantially revised in
the meantime.
An area not covered in the current IASB is
measurement concepts. This issue will be
tackled in due course as a result of the AcSB
projectundertaken on behalf of the IASB.The
purpose of the project is to identify, consider
and make measurement objective or set of
objectives.

30. Dean and Clarke describe many issues that are
relevantto understanding why the development
of conceptual frameworks at a national level has
been problematic. They suggest that current
conceptual framework projects have sought to
develop a constitution-based framework for
accounting, instead of focusing on concepts
underlying ordinary, everydaycommerce.
