Overview
All SMEs have employees, the cost of whom must be correctly accounted for in their annual financial statements. This webinar investigates how the cost of employees should be correctly accounted for.
Section 28 provides guidance on the correct accounting treatment relating to any liabilities closely linked to employee benefits. These are classified into short-term benefits, post-employment benefits and termination benefits.
Section 26 looks at the principles around the treatment of share-based payment transactions.
