ANSWER_ IFRS is meant to create consistency and comparability in internationa
pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv



l markets. One of the limitations of IFRS is the complexity of reporting for equity
pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv



investments that are meant to provide information to shareholders for decision-
pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv



making purposes. Many private companies are held by a small group of sharehol
pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv



ders who are often involved in the running of the business or have access to that i
pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv



nformation. As a result, the cost of applying more complex accounting policies o
pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv



utweighs the benefit of the information provided to this closely held group of sha
pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv pv



reholders. To address this, the Accounting pv pv pv pv pv




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



eet the needs of private
pv pv pv pv




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



on the needs of the financial statement users.
