As a result, Publicly Accountable Entities (PAEs) must adopt TFRS 15 for their financial statements from the first quarter of 2019 onward. The five-step approach set out in this standard will have an effect on revenue recognition.

This guidance addresses the following topics:

1. Introduction

2. Objective

3. Scope

4. Recognition and measurement

5. Other matters (right of return, warranties, licences, incremental costs of obtaining a contract, repurchase agreements, and other)

6. Disclosures

This guidance is intended only as general information for entities newly adopting this standard and preparing their financial statements.
