Not-for-profits must take heed of IFRS

Article Abstract:

The effects of the decision of adopting international accounting standards from 1 January 2005 on the not-for-profit entities are highlighted. The proposed amended definition in ED 109 covers entities whose principle objective is not the generation of a profit and because of this revision, more entities are likely to qualify as not-for-profit entities.

The Accounting Standards will operate from Jul 1, 2000, rather than reporting periods ending on or after this date. There are reform measures that could change the accountability of Commonwealth Government Business Enterprises.
