Sir..Suppose for a question on ethical threat, if the threat is self interest, shall I provide 2 safeguard..
Like auditor as NED which creates self interest threat (1 mark)
Safeguard : politely decline the invitation since no safeguard can reduce the threat
Safeguard: if the appointment to go ahead, resign as the partnerCan I get 2 marks for 2 safeguard, but only 1 threat
September 4, 2021 at 4:01 pm #634313Another query..
Suppose, revenue 30% received in advance from customer and rest 70% will be paid later after the completion of contract.
if on a % of completion basis (performance obligation over period), can I recognise the 30% as and when received and, the rest 70% at a later stage when the control is passed. Is there any early revenue recognition risk in this issue.
Sir, Is my understanding correct? If not please advise..
September 4, 2021 at 7:36 pm #634343For marking advice please see the sticky/starred posts on this forum – like this one “This was the most productive 1 hour I had in the preparation for the exam!” and “Read the mind of an AAA marker – ESSENTIAL READING”.
There may be NO safeguards sufficient to reduce a threat to an acceptable level – see Example 1 on page 27 of the notes – clearly there can be no marks for suggesting safeguards in this case.
Cannot recognise any % in advance if there is not proportionate performance – the customer’s prepayment is a liability/deferred income.
