What figures should be disclosed in sopl and other comp income for year ended 30 June and it SOFP
Sir I am not understanding what amount do we disclose there.
September 13, 2016 at 1:27 pm #340333In the SOPL we show the dividends actually paid during the year, which is $104,000.
In the SOFP we show nothing. (The only time a dividend will be shown as owing is if it had been declared and voted on before the end of the year, but had not yet been paid)
September 14, 2016 at 8:59 pm #340551but dont we only show dividends in statement of changes in equity and not sopl and sofp?/
September 14, 2016 at 9:15 pm #340559Sorry – my mistake. No dividends are shown in the SOPL.
The $104,000 will appear in the SOCE.
(But if you knew this then why did you ask? 🙂 )
