About this book

UK GAAP 2017 is the second edition of the EY publication on UK GAAP following the replacement of all previous UK accounting standards with new financial reporting standards. The original publication, New UK GAAP 2015, was published in 2015 and a supplement, New UK GAAP Supplement 2016, was published the following year. This publication has been fully revised and updated in order to:

incorporate the amendments made to FRSs 100-102 in September 2014, February 2015, March 2015, July 2015, March 2016 and July 2016. This includes the new small entities accounting regime within FRS 102 –

The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland

– which is covered in a separate chapter;

include a chapter on FRS 103 –

Insurance Contracts

– which was issued in March 2014 and amended in May 2016;

include a chapter on FRS 104 –

Interim Financial Reporting

– which was issued in March 2015;

include the changes to legal requirements for UK companies and LLPs introduced largely as a consequence of the new EU Accounting Directive; and

provide further insight on the many issues relating to the practical application of the new UK accounting standards, based on the extensive experience of the book’s authors in dealing with recent day-to-day issues.

This book comprises 34 chapters. Each chapter includes a detailed list of contents and list of illustrative examples. The book contains an index of references to standards and interpretations and a general index.

FRS 101 – Reduced Disclosure Framework – Disclosure exemptions from EU-adopted IFRS for qualifying entities – uses the recognition and measurement principles of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). In certain circumstances, FRS 102 also refers entities to IFRS. Detailed guidance on applying IFRS can be found in EY’s publication International GAAP 2017®.

Preface

Over the last few years the Financial Reporting Council (FRC) has fundamentally changed financial reporting standards in the UK and Ireland. All previous UK GAAP has been replaced with new Financial Reporting Standards. These new standards were mandatory for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015, along with the associated accounting requirements of the Companies Act 2006.

Since the publication of New UK GAAP 2015, a number of amendments have been made to FRSs 100-102. The most significant of these were issued in July 2015 and principally implement the requirements of the new EU Accounting Directive. The July 2015 amendments were incorporated into the versions of FRSs 100-102 issued in September 2015 and most are mandatory for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016. This publication highlights these amendments as well as the related changes made to UK company law.

The amendments made in July 2015 also changed the financial reporting regime for small and micro-entities. For accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016, the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (FRSSE) is withdrawn. Instead, small entities that choose to apply the small entities regime are subject to the recognition and measurement requirements of FRS 102 but with separate (and reduced) disclosure requirements. Chapter 5 of this publication is devoted to the new small entities regime within FRS 102. The requirement to use FRS 102 for recognition and measurement is likely to result in significant change and challenge for some small entities since more accounting transactions, such as defined benefit pension schemes and derivatives, may need to be ‘on balance sheet’. A micro-entity that chooses to apply the micro-entities regime applies a new accounting standard, FRS 105 – The Financial Reporting Standard applicable to the Micro-entities Regime – although the requirements and proposals for micro-entities are not covered in detail in this publication.

In 2016 to date, the FRC has issued amendments to FRS 101 with the main purpose of providing disclosure exemptions from IFRS 15 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers, amendments to FRS 102 that align the fair value hierarchy used by financial institutions for disclosure purposes with that of IFRS 13 – Fair Value Measurement – and amendments to FRS 103 necessary because of the change in the regulatory regime for insurers to Solvency II. FRS 105 has also been amended to extend its scope to include eligible limited liability partnerships and qualifying partnerships following a change in legislation. Awaiting final issue as this publication goes to press is an amendment to both FRS 101 and FRS 102 that proposes to remove the requirement for a qualifying entity to notify its shareholders in writing that it intends to take advantage of the disclosure exemptions available within the reduced disclosure framework.

The FRC intends to carry out its first triennial review of FRS 102 in 2017 with a view to a revised version of the standard becoming effective for accounting periods beginning in 2019. This review is likely to propose limited amendments to FRS 102 for changes in equivalent IFRSs. However, more significant amendments to FRS 102 to align it with recent IFRSs are expected to be effective for accounting periods beginning in 2022.

After the EU referendum result, the FRC issued a press notice confirming that companies must continue to abide by their regulations under UK law, including those derived from EU law and continue with implementation plans for legislation that is still to come into effect. In this respect, it is important to note that, although most UK accounting requirements derive from EU Directives, many of these requirements are directly incorporated into UK company law. As a result, even in the event of EU legislation ceasing to apply, UK financial and reporting regulations will not change until applicable company law and regulations are amended. In particular, the application of UK GAAP and EU adopted IFRS is enshrined in the Companies Act 2006 and nothing will change in that respect without a change to the Act.

FRS 102 is much shorter in length than either IFRS or previous UK GAAP and, as a result, is less prescriptive on many issues. This publication includes our views on the judgemental areas we believe are likely to be most common in practice based on our experience of applying the new standards and similar issues encountered under IFRS. As experience of applying FRS 102 grows over time, we expect our views will continue to evolve. It is not possible for this publication to cover every aspect of company reporting. For some of the more complicated or less common areas which are not covered by FRS 102 and for which IFRSs provide relevant guidance, further explanations can be found in our publication International GAAP® 2017.
