Welcome to the latest edition of our financial reporting publication that aims to keep you in the loop with all the latest accounting and financial reporting developments, and the potential impact they may have on your business.

The last few months have been fairly quiet in terms of financial reporting developments. We’ve taken the opportunity to focus on the revised Research & Development Tax Incentive that kicked in on 1 July 2021 and remind entities how to account for these. We also remind NFP readers of recent changes to reporting thresholds and disclosures that registered charities need to be aware of. Listed entities have new Jobkeeper disclosure requirements to adhere to which we’ve summarised. We end this issue with a look at two recent agenda decisions issued by the IFRS Interpretations Committee.
