A. Total assets must be P3 million – P100 million, or


Total liabilities is P3 million – P100 million
B. If the entity is a parent company, the said amounts shall be based on the consolidated figures.

3. What are the instances when a business qualified to apply the PFRS for SEs may opt to use PFRS
for SMEs or full PFRS instead?

a. A small entity with group affiliations reporting under or moving towards:


- Full PFRS or PFRS for SMEs, or
- Full IFRS or IFRS for SMEs.
b. Has short term projection that show that it will breach the quantitative thresholds and
the breach is expected to be significant and continuing due to its long-term effect on the
company’s asset size;
c. Has been preparing financial statements using full PFRS or PFRS for SMEs and has
decided to liquidate;
d. Such other cases that the Commission may consider as valid exceptions from the
mandatory adoption of PFRS for Small Entities.

4. How do you think this new financial reporting framework will help small businesses?
By reducing choices for accounting treatment, eliminating topics that are not generally
relevant to small entities, simplifying methods for recognition and measurement, and reducing
disclosure requirements, the PFRS for Small Entities allows small entities to comply with the financial
reporting requirements without undue cost or burden.
