FRS 102 came into effect for accounting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2015
The following entities can apply FRS 102:
- entities which are not required to apply IFRS;
- small entities; and
- micro-entities.
Small entities can also apply FRS 102 Section 1A (S1A) and micro entities can also apply FRS 102 S1A or FRS 105.
The accounting policy choices you apply could enable you to influence the strength of your balance sheet or simplify your accounting but care must be taken because they may also create earnings volatility.
Fundamental to FRS 102 is the concept of ‘Fair Value’. In some instances you may require expert advice to determine a fair value.
