The Framework
Scope
The Framework addresses:
The objective of general purpose financial reporting
Qualitative characteristics of useful financial information
Financial statements and the reporting entity
the elements of financial statements
recognition and de recognition
measurement
presentation and disclosure
concepts of capital and capital maintenance
The primary users need information about the resources of the entity not only to assess an
entity's prospects for future net cash inflows but also how effectively and efficiently
management has discharged their responsibilities to use the entity's existing resources (i.e.,
stewardship).
The IFRS Framework notes that general purpose financial reports cannot provide all the
information that users may need to make economic decisions. They will need to consider
pertinent information from other sources as well.
The IFRS Framework notes that other parties, including prudential and market regulators,
may find general purpose financial reports useful. However, these are not considered a
primary user and general purpose financial reports are not primarily directed to regulators or
other parties.
