ASR Assignment 1 (20%)
Background
You are a recent accounting graduate and have been employed in the Financial Reporting Unit of Myer
Holdings Ltd, an ASX listed firm. Preparations are underway for the completion of the general purpose
financial report for the year ended 29 July 2017 and you have been asked by the Chief Financial Officer to
identify any major accounting issues which will need to be considered. Your attention is drawn to a media
release by ASIC on 31 May 2017 (ASIC Media Release 17‐162) and this identifies areas of concern where
attention will be directed in the ASIC surveillance program. Not surprisingly given a recent academic paper 1
‘impairment of assets’ receives specific mention.
