Assignment Topic – the Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting

The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) has issued the revised Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting. It is suggested that this new framework will provide “a comprehensive set of concepts for financial reporting” (IFRS® Conceptual Framework Project Summary, March 2018).

The textbook has outlined several limitations/criticisms on the previous Framework in pages 73-77; and we also discussed the limitations in week 2 lecture.
Please point out at least one limitation that you think the revised Framework HAS addressed.
• Explain in detail how the issue has been addressed.
• If not fully addressed, give your advice on what else could be done to improve it.
Please point out at least one limitation that you think the revised Framework HAS NOT addressed.
• Explain why you think the issue was not addressed by IASB when revising the Framework;
• Do you think the issue is important (or should have been solved in the Framework)? If it is important, give your advice on how to solve the issue and improve the Framework.
Find a Fiji firm’s annual report on the South Pacific Stock Exchange (SPSE) website and have a look at the annual report.
• Please discuss how the annual report would be (or would not be) influenced by the revised Framework, and how the annual report should be further improved. • Link it to the limitations you discussed before if applicable.
You can find some materials on the revised Conceptual Framework from IFRS website:
https://www.ifrs.org/supporting-implementation/supporting-materials-by-ifrsstandard/conceptual-framework-for-financial-reporting/#education
Requirements:
• Maximum 1000 words.
• Turnitin similarity percentage is not to exceed 15%.
• DO NOT just copy and paste what IASB updated on the Framework from the IFRS® Conceptual Framework Project Summary or any other internet resources.
• It is all about how you build your argument, according to your understanding of the previous Framework and whether the revised Framework achieved improvements. Back up all criticism with clear examples.
• Firms’ annual reports may (or may not) have done more than what the Framework requires; please clearly state the annual report you refer to (e.g. firm, year and/or pages if applicable).
• Use APA referencing system.
