会计新产品的保修准备金:如何评估风险与误报可能性
Scrub Limited (the Company) is an appliance producer and retailer specializing in dishwashers. During the current period the Company introduced a new line of washing machines. Because this is a new product, the Company does not have historical data available to estimate the annual warranty provision. The audit team has identified a significant risk for valuation, measurement and completeness assertions for the warranty provision liability and expense. Which of these factors does NOT increase the risk of material misstatement? High level of importance by users of the financial statements Significant risk is linked to the account Routine transactions KPI’s measured by management

根据企业会计准则第13号——或有事项(2006)-第四章 或有事项的确认和计量-第十四条,企业应当在资产负债表日对预计负债的账面价值进行复核。有确凿证据表明该账面价值不能真实反映当前最佳估计数的,应当按照当前最佳估计数对该账面价值进行调整。

在Scrub Limited的案例中,由于新产品的推出,公司缺乏历史数据来估计年度保修准备金,这增加了估值、计量和完整性断言的风险。在这种情况下,以下因素中,Routine transactions 并不增加重大错报风险。因为常规交易通常是指那些日常发生的、有固定模式和处理流程的交易,这些交易的风险相对较低,因为它们已经被系统化和标准化处理。而新产品保修准备金的估计是一个非常规的、需要特别评估的事项,因此不属于常规交易。

其他因素,如财务报表使用者的高度重视、与账户相关的重大风险以及管理层衡量的关键绩效指标(KPI),都可能增加重大错报的风险,因为它们涉及到对财务报表准确性和可靠性的更高要求和关注。
