International Accounting Standard 24

Related Party Disclosures

OBJECTIVE

| 1 | The objective of this Standard is to ensure that an entity’s financial statements contain the disclosures necessary to draw attention to the possibility that its financial position and profit or loss may have been affected by the existence of related parties and by transactions and outstanding balances, including commitments, with such parties. |
| --- | --- |

1

SCOPE

| 2 | This Standard shall be applied in:








  (a) | identifying related party relationships and transactions; |
| --- | --- | --- |

2

(a)

identifying related party relationships and transactions;

| (b) | identifying outstanding balances, including commitments, between an entity and its related parties; |
| --- | --- |

(b)

identifying outstanding balances, including commitments, between an entity and its related parties;

| (c) | identifying the circumstances in which disclosure of the items in (a) and (b) is required; and |
| --- | --- |

(c)

identifying the circumstances in which disclosure of the items in (a) and (b) is required; and

| (d) | determining the disclosures to be made about those items. |
| --- | --- |

(d)

determining the disclosures to be made about those items.

| 3 | This Standard requires disclosure of related party relationships, transactions and outstanding balances, including commitments, in the consolidated and separate financial statements of a parent, venturer or investor presented in accordance with IAS 27 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements. This Standard also applies to individual financial statements. |
| --- | --- |

3

| 4 | Related party transactions and outstanding balances with other entities in a group are disclosed in an entity’s financial statements. Intragroup related party transactions and outstanding balances are eliminated in the preparation of consolidated financial statements of the group. |
| --- | --- |

4

PURPOSE OF RELATED PARTY DISCLOSURES

| 5 | Related party relationships are a normal feature of commerce and business. For example, entities frequently carry on parts of their activities through subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates. In those circumstances, the entity has the ability to affect the financial and operating policies of the investee through the presence of control, joint control or significant influence. |
| --- | --- |

5

| 6 | A related party relationship could have an effect on the profit or loss and financial position of an entity. Related parties may enter into transactions that unrelated parties would not. For example, an entity that sells goods to its parent at cost might not sell on those terms to another customer. Also, transactions between related parties may not be made at the same amounts as between unrelated parties. |
| --- | --- |

6

| 7 | The profit or loss and financial position of an entity may be affected by a related party relationship even if related party transactions do not occur. The mere existence of the relationship may be sufficient to affect the transactions of the entity with other parties. For example, a subsidiary may terminate relations with a trading partner on acquisition by the parent of a fellow subsidiary engaged in the same activity as the former trading partner. Alternatively, one party may refrain from acting because of the significant influence of another—for example, a subsidiary may be instructed by its parent not to engage in research and development. |
| --- | --- |

7

| 8 | For these reasons, knowledge of an entity’s transactions, outstanding balances, including commitments, and relationships with related parties may affect assessments of its operations by users of financial statements, including assessments of the risks and opportunities facing the entity. |
| --- | --- |

| 10 | In considering each possible related party relationship, attention is directed to the substance of the relationship and not merely the legal form. |
| --- | --- |

Appendix

Amendment to IFRS 8 Operating Segments

| A1 | Paragraph 34 is amended as follows (new text is underlined and deleted text is struck through) and paragraph 36B is added.






  34 | An entity shall provide information about the extent of its reliance on its major customers. If revenues from transactions with a single external customer amount to 10 per cent or more of an entity’s revenues, the entity shall disclose that fact, the total amount of revenues from each such customer, and the identity of the segment or segments reporting the revenues. The entity need not disclose the identity of a major customer or the amount of revenues that each segment reports from that customer. For the purposes of this IFRS, a group of entities known to a reporting entity to be under common control shall be considered a single customer,. However, judgement is required to assess whether
  and a government (national, state, provincial, territorial, local or foreign
  including government agencies and similar bodies whether local, national or international) and entities known to the reporting entity to be under the control of that government shall be
  are considered a single customer. In assessing this, the reporting entity shall consider the extent of economic integration between those entities. |
