(iii) Conceptual Framework
Recognition
The Conceptual Framework states that items should be recognised if they meet
the definition of an element and if recognition provides useful information to
the users of financial statements - i.e. relevant information and a faithful
representation of the entity’s underlying transactions.
(1 mark)
The Conceptual Framework defines an asset as a present economic resource
controlled by an entity as a result of a past event. The financial asset meets
this definition because Spamgate is contractually entitled to cash receipts.
(1 mark)
Recognition provides relevant information to
financial statement users
because it informs them about Spamgate’s future cash flows.
(1 mark)
The cost and fair value of the asset can be determined and so the element is
capable of faithfully representation.
