peer agreement (net): +2Liabilities maturing after the balance sheet date Explanation: In good British English (find it in http://www.publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm200910/cmselect/c... Which is also the way the IASB would put it. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 14 hrs (2015-03-23 08:56:50 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- With no qualifier, 'the' balance sheet date will *always* be taken to refer to the end of one *annual* reporting period (and the beginning of the next). This is the EN usage closest to the FR 'clôture', but you could substitute 'after the reporting period'. See IAS 10 and its successors. Do not say 'fiscal year' for 'financial year' unless the reporting period necessarily coincides with the relevant tax year. |
