    Dear sir,

    IAS 8 States that

    Paragraph 36 : The effect of a change in an accounting estimate, other than a change to
    which paragraph 37 applies, shall be recognised prospectively by
    including it in profit or loss in:
    (a) the period of the change, if the change affects that period only; or
    (b) the period of the change and future periods, if the change affects
    both.
    Paragraph 37 :To the extent that a change in an accounting estimate gives rise to
    changes in assets and liabilities, or relates to an item of equity, it shall be
    recognised by adjusting the carrying amount of the related asset, liability
    or equity item in the period of the change.

    Can you give me an illustrative example for the case in the paragraph 37 since I cannot understand.
    Thank you so much for your kind support.

    Hi,

    Have you not posted this in the FR forum too? Can you please post your queries in the one forum and preferably for the one you are studying towards.

    Thanks
