IFRS Financial Statements - Examples

The following sample and illustrative financial statements provide examples of reporting under IFRSs. The sample financial statements are prepared based on the IFRSs effective at the entity’s reporting date as required by IFRSs. The illustrative financial statements are based on the IFRSs at a date specified in each statement. Consequently, as IFRSs are amended, the examples provided will not reflect all standards currently effective. These examples provide a useful reference point for preparing IFRS financial statements, but we do not represent that they are necessarily compliant in all respects with IFRSs and regulatory requirements.

Disclosures explaining the effect of the transition from an entity’s previous GAAP financial statements to IFRSs are required in the year of adoption. These disclosures are not required in subsequent IFRS statements. Therefore, examples of financial statements in the first year of adoption and for the years after first-time adoption of IFRS are included below. For interim financial samples, both the minimum required condensed set and the optional complete set are provided.  A financial reporting commentary prepared by AcSB staff on "Interim Financial Statements in the Year of Adoption" provides additional information to consider.
