These factsheets provide additional guidance to assist with the application of FRS 102 and include three new factsheets. Of particular interest to preparers and other stakeholders will be the new factsheets published which address the new accounting requirements for revenue recognition and lease accounting (effective for periods commencing on or after 1 January 2026).
