The Malaysian Accounting Standards Board (MASB) has issued an amendment to defer the effective date of the ‘Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current’ which amends MFRS 101 1 ‘Presentation of Financial Statements’ by one year.
The amendment to MFRS 101 entitled ‘Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current’ (the Amendments) was issued in January 2020, to clarify the Standard’s guidance on whether a liability should be classified as either current or non-current. The Amendments were effective for reporting periods on or after 1 January 2022. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the MASB has decided to give entities more time to implement any classification changes that may result from the Amendments. As such the Amendments are now effective from 1 January 2023.
No other changes have been made to the Amendments other than the effective date.
