Good afternoon Sir
Step 1: identification of a contract
there are 5 criteria given before a contract can be accounted for.
question: do ALL the criteria need to be fulfilled before the contract can be accounted for?
regards
August 5, 2017 at 1:36 pm #400546This is from the IASPLUS pages on IFRS 15 with some words put into upper case by me
“Step 1: Identify the contract with the customer
A contract with a customer will be within the scope of IFRS 15 if ALL the following conditions are met: [IFRS 15:9]
the contract has been approved by the parties to the contract;
each party’s rights in relation to the goods or services to be transferred can be identified;
the payment terms for the goods or services to be transferred can be identified;
the contract has commercial substance; and
it is probable that the consideration to which the entity is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services will be collected.
If a contract with a customer does not yet meet ALL of the above criteria, the entity will continue to re-assess the contract going forward to determine whether it subsequently meets the above criteria.
From that point, the entity will apply IFRS 15 to the contract. [IFRS 15:14]”
I believe that the answer to your post is: YES
