Non-adjusting events after the reporting period are typically:

• A. A Included in the current period’s financial statements
• B. B Required to adjust the amounts in the financial statements
• C. C Disclosed if material
• D. D Never disclosed

Answer: (C)

Non-adjusting events after the reporting period are events that occur after the end of the reporting period but do not reflect conditions that existed at the reporting date. They do not lead to changes in the amounts reported in the financial statements. If such events are material, they must be disclosed in the notes to explain their potential impact on users’ understanding of the financial statements. That’s why the correct approach is to disclose them if they are material. For example, a major business combination after the reporting period or a significant loss or catastrophe arising after the period would be disclosed in the notes if material, rather than adjusted in the financial statements.
