Review of tentative agenda decisions published in November 2009 IFRIC Update

Date recorded:

The IFRIC redeliberated its tentative agenda decisions published in the November 2009 IFRIC Update.

IAS 38 Intangible Assets – Amortisation method

The IFRIC discussed the comments letters received to its November tentative agenda decision as well as new arguments presented. The IFRIC members were split in discussing whether to add the issue to the IFRIC agenda. As no alternative (finalisation of the agenda decision as drafted or adding it to the agenda) did get the required support, the IFRIC decided to finalise the agenda decision to reflect that IFRIC was unable to achieve consensus on that issue.

IFRS 2 Share-based Payment – Share-based payment transactions in which the manner of settlement is contingent on future events
