Course Details

Accounting for provisions and contingencies is quite a tricky area due to the wide variety of potential transactions or events that may need to be accounted for as provisions or contingencies and the level of uncertainty involved. In this course we take a practical approach to what to look out for and how to account for provisions and contingencies under FRS 102 and FRS 105. The course includes practical examples as well as a review of real-life disclosures of provisions and contingencies.

  • What are provisions and contingencies
  • How to identify transactions and events that may lead to provisions and contingencies. 
  • Measurement and disclosure of provisions and contingencies under FRS 102
