Separate disclosure of material items 3 / 12

Exceptional items get disclosed separately

This is where disclosure is necessary in order to explain the performance of the entity better

The NORMAL accounting treatment is to:

  • Show in the standard line in the I/S

  • Disclose the nature and amount in notes

EXCEPTIONS such as these can have their own I/S line:

  • Write down of inventories to net realisable value (NRV)

  • Write down of property, plant and equipment to recoverable amount

  • Restructuring costs

  • Gains/losses on disposal of non-current assets

  • Discontinued operations profits / losses

  • Litigation settlements

  • Reversals of provisions
