IAS Plus Newsletter on IFRIC 14

20 July 2007




IFRIC issued a new Interpretation entitled IAS 19 - The Limit on a Defined Benefit Asset, Minimum Funding Requirements and their Interaction. IFRIC 14 provides general guidance on how to assess the limit in IAS 19 Employee Benefits on the amount of a pension fund surplus that can be recognised as an asset. It also explains how the pensions asset or liability may be affected when there is a statutory or contractual minimum funding requirement. IFRIC 14 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2008. Earlier application is permitted. This newsletter explains the requirements of IFRIC 14.
