Monthly Accountants Tech Talk: Accounting for Community Living
Presenters : Carmen Westermeyer CA(SA) , Caryn Maitland CA(SA)
Overview
Community living includes homeowners' associations, share blocks and bodies corporate. Accounting and dealing with the administrative requirements that apply to these living arrangements can be quite challenging especially if not adequately addressed upfront.
The Sectional Title Schemes Management Act 8 of 2011 is the piece of legislation that directs how bodies corporate should be managed. As can be expected, the preparation of annual financial statements for these bodies is a specialised area of focus that requires accounting practitioners to have a good understanding of the Act as well as related Management Rules.
