IASB ED Translation to a Hyperinflationary Presentation Currency – Proposed amendments to IAS 21 |
Proposes to amend IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates to clarify how amounts in the financial statements of an entity whose functional currency is that of a non-hyperinflationary economy, are translated into the presentation currency of an economy that is hyperinflationary. In such cases, the closing rate at the date of the most recent statement of financial position is used to translate all amounts in the financial statements (income, expenses, assets, liabilities and equity). |
