FAQ :
PQR Ltd incorrectly capitalised finance costs on a term loan in the cost of machinery for the entire financial year 2021-2022, even after the asset was ready for its intended use. According to Ind AS 23, capitalisation should have ceased in June 2021.
Yes, the misclassification of finance costs is considered a material prior period error under Ind AS 8 because reliable information was available when the financial statements were approved, and this omission could influence user decisions.
PQR Ltd must correct the material prior period error retrospectively by restating the comparative amounts for the prior period presented (year ended 31st March 2022) in its financial statements for the year ended 31st March 2023.
No, PQR Ltd is not required to present a third balance sheet as at the beginning of the preceding period because the retrospective restatement does not have a material effect on the balance sheet information at that date (1st April 2021).
A qualifying asset is one that takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale. Examples include manufacturing plants, power generation facilities, and intangible assets, but not assets ready for use when acquired or inventories produced over short periods.
