LEARNING OBJECTIVE 6
Compare the accounting procedures for cash and receivables under IFRS and
U.S. GAAP.

As in IFRS, the statement of financial position and the statement of cash flows
are required statements for U.S. GAAP. In addition, the content and
presentation of a U.S. GAAP statement of financial position and cash flow
statement are similar to those used for IFRS.

5-86 LO 6
GLOBAL ACCOUNTING INSIGHTS

Relevant Facts
Following are the key similarities and differences between U.S. GAAP and
IFRS related to the statement of financial position.
Similarities
• Both U.S. GAAP and IFRS allow the use of the title “balance sheet” or
“statement of financial position.” IFRS recommends but does not require the
use of the title “statement of financial position” rather than balance sheet.
• Both U.S. GAAP and IFRS require disclosures about (1) accounting policies
followed, (2) judgments that management has made in the process of
applying the entity’s accounting policies, and (3) the key assumptions and
estimation uncertainty that could result in a material adjustment.
Comparative prior period information must be presented and financial
statements must be prepared annually.
5-87 LO 6
GLOBAL ACCOUNTING INSIGHTS

Relevant Facts
Similarities
• U.S. GAAP and IFRS require presentation of non-controlling interests in the
equity section of the statement of financial position.

Differences
• U.S. GAAP follows the same guidelines as presented in the chapter for
distinguishing between current and noncurrent assets and liabilities.
However, under U.S. GAAP, public companies must follow U.S. SEC
regulations, which require specific line items. In addition, specific U.S.
GAAP mandates certain forms of reporting for this information. IFRS
requires a classified statement of financial position except in very limited
situations.

5-88 LO 6
GLOBAL ACCOUNTING INSIGHTS

Relevant Facts
Differences
• Under U.S. GAAP cash is listed first, but under IFRS it is many times listed
last. That is, under IFRS, current assets are usually listed in the reverse
order of liquidity than under U.S. GAAP.
• U.S. GAAP has many differences in terminology that you will notice in this
textbook. One example is the use of common stock under U.S. GAAP,
which is referred to as share capital—ordinary under IFRS.
• Use of the term “reserve” is discouraged in U.S. GAAP, but there is no such
prohibition in IFRS.

5-89 LO 6
GLOBAL ACCOUNTING INSIGHTS

About The Numbers


The order of presentation in the statement of financial position differs between
U.S. GAAP and IFRS. As indicated in the following table, U.S. companies
generally present current assets, non-current assets, current and non-current
liabilities, and shareholders’ equity. In addition, within the current asset and
liability classifications, items are presented in order of liquidity.

5-90 LO 6
GLOBAL ACCOUNTING INSIGHTS

On the Horizon
The IASB and the FASB are working on a project to converge their standards
related to financial statement presentation. A key feature of the proposed
framework is that each of the statements will be organized, in the same format,
to separate an entity’s financing activities from its operating and investing
activities and, further, to separate financing activities into transactions with
owners and creditors. Thus, the same classifications used in the statement of
financial position would also be used in the statement of comprehensive
income and the statement of cash flows.
