Hello
it says that one of the consequence of a change in ias 19 will be that it increases comparability but also volatility. I understood the comparability part but as for the volatility could you make it clearer please?
and what does the corridor method was like before the introduction of the revised std?
illustration with figures would be appreciated 🙂October 9, 2013 at 11:13 am #142363Certainly not about to explain the corridor approach – it’s gone and there’s no way you will ever need it – unless it returns!
Volatility arises because of what used to be called “Unrecognised gains and losses” now being recognised within the year’s income statement in full where previously they were corridored.
Again, you do not need to know about these UGLY amounts and how they were treated – they are history
