ANSWER_ IFRS is meant to create consistency and comparability in international
markets. One of the limitations of IFRS is the complexity of reporting for equity
investments that are meant to provide information to shareholders for decision-
making purposes. Many private companies are held by a small group of
shareholders who are often involved in the running of the business or have access
to that information. As a result, the cost of applying more complex accounting
policies outweighs the benefit of the information provided to this closely held
group of shareholders. To address this, the Accounting
Standards Board developed the Accounting Standards for Private Enterprises to
meet the needs of private


enterprises. Private enterprises have the option to adopt IFRS or ASPE depending
on the needs of the financial statement users.

Learning Outcome: 1.1 Describe the accounting standards used in Canada and how

3) What are the four parts of the CPA Canada Handbook — Accounting and
which entities are they applicable to?
ANSWER_ The four parts are:
• Part I — International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) — applicable
to publicly accountable, private, or not-for-profit entities.
• Part II — Accounting Standards for Private Enterprises (ASPE) —
applicable to private entities.
• Part III — Accounting Standards for Not-for-Profit Organizations —
applicable to not-for-profit entities.
• Part IV — Accounting Standards for Pension Plans — applicable to pension
plans.
