Our ‘Insights into MFRS 15’ series summarises the key areas of the Standard, highlighting some areas that are challenging to apply in practice, to assist reporting entities in understanding how to apply MFRS 15’s requirements.
MFRS 15 introduces the five-step model for revenue recognition which applies specifically to contracts with customers. Given this limitation in scope, the first step of the model is to identify contracts with customers.
