The financial effects of events occurring after the balance sheet date but prior to the approval of the financial statements should be incorporated into the accounts immediately.
Answer:-
False,The financial effects of events occurring after the balance sheet date but prior to the approval of the financial statements should be incorporated into the accounts immediately because only adjusting events need to be incorporated.
IAS 10 prescribes:
Events after the reporting period are those events, favourable and unfavourable, that occur between the end of the reporting period and the date when the financial statements are authorised for issue. The two types of events are:
1. those that provide evidence of conditions that existed at the end of the reporting period (adjusting events); and
2.those that are indicative of conditions that arose after the reporting period (non-adjusting events).
An entity adjusts the amounts recognised in its financial statements to reflect adjusting events, but it does not adjust those amounts to reflect non-adjusting events. If non-adjusting events after the reporting period are material, IAS 10 prescribes disclosures.
