Government grants-notes on measurement,recognition and presentation . Could you help explain the principles behind them.thanks
A government grant is recognised only when there is reasonable assurance that (a) the entity will comply with any conditions attached to the grant and (b) the grant will be received.
The grant is recognised as income over the period necessary to match them with the related costs, for which they are intended to compensate, on a systematic basis.
Non-monetary grants, such as land or other resources, are usually accounted for at fair value, although recording both the asset and the grant at a nominal amount is also permitted.
Do you want more?
