IAS 10 deals with events after the reporting period. 

Required:

(b) Explain when the financial statements should be adjusted.

(c) Why should non-adjusting events be disclosed?

(d) A customer made a claim for £50,000 for losses suffered by the late delivery of goods. The main part (£40,000) of the claim referred to goods due to be delivered before the year-end. Explain how this would be dealt with under IAS 10.

(e) After the year-end a substantial quantity of inventory was destroyed in a fire. The loss was not adequately covered by insurance.
