QBCC Comparative Date Ranges
Q - For MFR, does the comparative period need to be the same as the MFR date? A lot of accounting firms do a 30 June 2022 comparative, as that is what has been lodged already in QBCC’s system. Also AASB requires two periods to be included in GPFR.
Q - For annual reporting, it is obvious that we do the previous period, such as 30 June 2022, and 30 June 2021.
A - The comparative period will depend on what the reporting period being prepared is:
- For example, comparative information can be based on 30 June 2021 and 30 June 2022 if providing financial statements for the year ended as at 30 June 2022.
- It may also be 30 June 2021 and 30 December 2021 if providing financial statements for the six month period ending 31 December 2021.
