Financial reporting.

Under International Accounting Standards (IAS) 'primary' financial statements are the main external accounting statements that must be presented.


These are:

  • Statement of financial position (balance sheet).
  • Income statement (profit or loss account), which can be included in the statement of comprehensive income.
  • Statement of comprehensive income.
  • Statement of changes in equity.
  • Statement of cash flows.


The primary financial statements are supported by Notes to the external accounts, providing additional and more detailed financial information.
