Question
When it is difficult to distinguish between a change of estimate and a change in accounting policy, then an entity should (a) Treat the entire change as a change in estimate with appropriate disclosure. (b) Apportion, on a reasonable basis, the relative amounts of change in estimate and the change in accounting policy and treat each one accordingly. (c) Treat the entire change as a change in accounting policy. (d) Since this change is a mixture of two types of changes, it is best if it is ignored in the year of the change; the entity should then wait for the following year to see how the change develops and then treat it accordingly.
