2) In Canada, a private company has the choice to report under International

Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) or Accounting Standards for Private Enter

prises (ASPE). Describe why the CPA Canada Handbook provides the option for
!m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m



private enterprises? !m

,2| P a g e !m !m !m !m




ANSWER_ IFRS is meant to create consistency and comparability in internation
!m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m



al markets. One of the limitations of IFRS is the complexity of reporting for equ
!m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m



ity investments that are meant to provide information to shareholders for decisio
!m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m



n-
making purposes. Many private companies are held by a small group of shareho
!m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m



lders who are often involved in the running of the business or have access to tha
!m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m



t information. As a result, the cost of applying more complex accounting policie
!m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m



s outweighs the benefit of the information provided to this closely held group of
!m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m



shareholders. To address this, the Accounting !m !m !m !m !m




Standards Board developed the Accounting Standards for Private Enterprises to m
!m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m



eet the needs of private
!m !m !m !m




enterprises. Private enterprises have the option to adopt IFRS or ASPE depending
!m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m !m



on the needs of the financial statement users.
