(a)    property, plant and equipment;

(b)   investment property carried at fair value through profit or loss;

(c)    intangible assets;

(d)    financial assets (excluding amounts shown under (e), (f), (j) and (k));

(e)    investments in associates;

(f)    investments in jointly controlled entities;

(g)    biological assets carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment;

(h)    biological assets carried at fair value through profit or loss;

(k)   cash and cash equivalents;

(l)     trade and other payables;

(m)   provisions;

(n)    financial liabilities (excluding amounts shown under (l) and (m));

(o)    liabilities and assets for current tax;

(p)    deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets (classified as non-current);

(q) non-controlling interest, presented within equity separately from the equity attributable to the owners of the parent; and

(r)    equity attributable to the owners of the parent.

4.2B An entity choosing to apply paragraph 1A(1) of Schedule 1 to the Regulations shall also disclose, either in the statement of financial position or in the notes, the following sub- classifications of the line items presented:

(a)    property, plant and equipment in classifications appropriate to the entity;

(b)   intangible assets and goodwill in classifications appropriate to the entity;

(c)    investments, showing separately shares and loans;

(d)    trade and other receivables showing separately amounts due from related parties, amounts due from other parties, prepayments and receivables arising from accrued income not yet billed;

(e)    inventories, showing separately amounts of inventories:

(i)     held for sale in the ordinary course of business;

(ii)    in the process of production for such sale; and

(iii)   in the form of materials or supplies to be consumed in the production process or in the rendering of services.

(f)    trade and other payables, showing separately amounts payable to trade suppliers, payable to related parties, deferred income and accruals; and

(g)    classes of equity, such as share capital, share premium, retained earnings, revaluation reserve, fair value reserve and other reserves.

4.2C The descriptions used in paragraphs 4.2A and 4.2B, and the ordering of items or aggregation of similar items, may be amended according to the nature of the entity and its transactions, to provide information that is relevant to an understanding of the entity’s financial position, providing the information given is at least equivalent to that required by the balance sheet format had it not been adapted.

4.2D In order to comply with the requirement to distinguish between those items that are current and those that are non-current an entity shall present current and non-current assets, and current and non-current liabilities, as separate classifications in its statement of financial position.

OmniPro comment

Section 4.2A-4.2D relates to a different choice as to what format the balance sheet can be presented in. This is not applicable for companies registered in the Republic of Ireland at this time as the EU directive 2013/34 has not been enacted. UK companies can currently use this layout if the UK entity has early adopted the September 2015 amendments to FRS 102. This is not specific to small companies.

The above wording would just be replaced with the current wording in the balance sheet formats above. It produces a format similar to IFRS financial statements. It requires items to be split between those that are current and non-current.

See below a high level example of the layout of the statement of financial position. The categories above would be inserted as and when required.

Transition exemptions

There are no transition exemptions. However the layout is similar to old GAAP so there should be no issues transitioning.
