Can anyone help with the subsequent issue please?

Adjustment-when a condition of subsequent events exist before or at year end.

Disclosure-when the condition of subsequent events exist after   year end.

what about adjustment and disclosure???

That 's what i thought.If Client accured and disclosed at year end, it required managment to ajust on the (accrued amount and disclosure) for subsequent events.

For example, in the year end, a manager believes in a litigation case that is probable event and reasonable estimated amount. Accordingly, the manager would like to accure as well as disclose it. Then, the litigation becomes realised at subsequent period(after year end,but before f/s issued). Manager needs to make ajustment both on that accured amount and disclosure.

In the event of a litigation and a loss is probable, the loss would be recorded at year end based on the rule of conservatism and disclose it.  Once the litigation is settle after year end but before financial statements are issued, then an adjustment is made at the year end date.
