Some of my memories of years back
“Any material charges or credit that arise in current years due to errors or omission in one or more prior period”
As student you tried to know the meaning of each terms like ‘Materiality’, ‘Charges’ ‘credit’ , ‘current year’, ‘errors’, ‘omission’ to write in exam this “standard” of accounts.
As Elders/Teachers when you applied the concept in work areas , you might have focused on any of these terms related to prior period, and it’s significance and effects on the records of the account of current year.
And similarly another accounting standard namely “events subsequent to balance sheet date”.
Those events which occur now, but are related the period after the balance sheet date. To find effects of those events in current year.
If you will focus on both the standards, You will discover that while one standard is related to past, the other one is related to future. And you make study of these two standards , when you understand that both of the standard have effect on present, now.
Just like you try to focus on present in your work, professional life. You do not try to focus on past because you can not change past (said Sri Sri Ravi Sankar). You should not focus on Future, because future may not happen. (said Sri Sri Ravi Sankar).
While applying these two standards, you may want to keep or reflect on these facts of life (past and future).
I want to say that , if a fact or information affects our present moment, we should focus on it else not.
Institution also defined in a booklet of ethics profession as ‘Continued application of education in to practice’. practice means in the work areas. Here i will focus on 2 aspects
1. Theoritical Education(Written Books, Shared By School/Collage Teachers)
2. And Continuation of above in practice
Both of these terms should be present in my work , so that the work will be considered by other men working with me as work.
If i render jobs in the areas of verification of others work , i should apply my educations while i continue verifying others work.
I should not focus on education of other men whom I can not see and touch. A man who is very far away from me.
The points emphasized here are
1. The education of self in work areas.
2. And the focus on present for effects of past and future events and
3. Linkage of those events of now with the educations/standards related to them.
thought to write down these facts of the educations, because these are not meant for readings only. These are applications in day to day life.
Existence of life depends upon the existence of these learning’s, education, awareness.
Thanks
Happy reading !
