What is a Statement of Comprehensive Income How is it differ

What is a Statement of Comprehensive Income? How is it different to the Statement of Financial Performance which it replaced?

Solution

Comprehensive income statement includes income and expenses recognised in a specific period.

It includes all the revenue item, finance costs, tax exp, profits, and losses.

Most firms report comprehensive income in a separate statement from income resulting from owner changes in equity but have the option of providing information in a single statement.
