Ask the Tutor ACCA SBR

IAS 8

AAndre7y ago
Good day Quick question concerning "Accounting policies, changes in accounting estimate and errors (IAS 8)" Change in accounting policy results in restatement of comparative figures. Balance sheet figures are restated, opening balance of Retained Earning is restated. Do we also restate Profit and Loss comparatives? Thank you

Hi, Yes, the profit or loss figures would be adjusted too. You are unlikely to have to do any computations of such in a SBR exam however. Thanks
