06 May, 2010

The IASB has issued Improvements to IFRSs – a collection of amendments to seven IFRSs – as part of its program of annual improvements to its standards.

The IASB uses the annual improvements project to make necessary, but non-urgent, amendments to IFRSs that will not be included as part of another major project. These amendments had been proposed in exposure drafts issued in August 2008 and August 2009. Most of the amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2011, although entities are generally permitted to adopt them earlier.
