Background

• Taxonomies which are covered:‒ annual report for small limited companies

(accounting category K2)‒ auditor’s report for K2‒ annual report adoption certificate for limited

companies

• A public working draft (PWD) review period took place from 30 May to 13 August 2017:

‒ about 60 feedback items of varied character came in

‒ the majority of the feedback concerned annual reporting for K2 small limited companies

‒ there was even feedback about Bolagsverket’sservice and implementation of iXBRL/XBRL

Background

• Today’s taxonomies are based on guidelines and thinking from the 2009 version

• Simplicity has been a key word‒ simple to create and simple to understand.

• The terms should be independent

• Support for only the most usual scenarios

About the priorities for the K2 taxonomy

Requirement level Description

1. Must • By law and/or according to standards

• Widely used and create large limitations

for the application of the taxonomy.

2. Should • Makes transition to electronic reporting

easier.

3. Requested • Included in the template but not used so

often.

Overall changes and position

• Clarification of definitions of terms‒ review of and updated documentation headings and

standard headings‒ updated element names‒ updated references to laws and guidance‒ updated BAS account

• Increased reuse of terms in the taxonomy‒ for example, reuse of terms from the administration

report in the ’change in equity’ in the auditor’s report

Page 12: Launch of taxonomies for companies using the K2 …/taxonomies.pdf · Launch of taxonomies for companies using the K2 accounting category 3 October 2017 ... Balancesheet XXX XX XXX

Overall changes and position

• Few content checks in the taxonomy‒ summary checks in the profit and loss statement and balance sheet only

‒ reasons:

• in iXBRL it is possible to add information missing in the taxonomy which leads to validation errors

• the adding of rows in the K2 profit and loss statement and balance sheet is not permitted

• No extra description in the taxonomy other than the heading to indicate which character should be used in the presentation

‒ for example ’increase (decrease) in reserve fund’ implies that for an increase in the reserve fund there will be a positive figure in the instance document and if a decrease occurs, there will be a negative figure in the instance document

Page 13: Launch of taxonomies for companies using the K2 …/taxonomies.pdf · Launch of taxonomies for companies using the K2 accounting category 3 October 2017 ... Balancesheet XXX XX XXX

Overall changes and position

• No ’fixed note linkage’ between the profit and loss statement and the balance sheet nor for the notes.

‒ this is addressed though in Extended information

• Reduction in number of layout types from nine in the PWD version down to five

‒ only four of the reports are to be used for creating instance documents/iXBRL

‒ the fifth (full) is only intended as a overview of the content in a K2 annual report

Launch of taxonomies – Final

FAR – Taxonomy for auditor’s report

3 October 2017

Page 19: Launch of taxonomies for companies using the K2 …/taxonomies.pdf · Launch of taxonomies for companies using the K2 accounting category 3 October 2017 ... Balancesheet XXX XX XXX

Taxonomy for auditor’s report - background

• Classification of the auditor’s report as a foundation for the taxonomy is developed by FAR

• Taxonomy developed in cooperation with Bolagsverket• Discussed and first established as an Internal Working

Draft (IWD) within FAR’s Policy group for auditing• Then a subject for consultation and feedback as a Public

Working Draft (PWD)• Current status ’Final’

Page 20: Launch of taxonomies for companies using the K2 …/taxonomies.pdf · Launch of taxonomies for companies using the K2 accounting category 3 October 2017 ... Balancesheet XXX XX XXX

Taxonomy for auditor’s report - classification

• The starting point for the classification is an auditor’s report for limited companies.

• The layout comes from RevR 700, example 1, Auditor’s report for limited companies without company groups (K2 without company groups).

• Adjustments have been done so that the classification even allows for modified remarks, other information and comments to be left in accordance with RevR 705.

• Reporting by auditors in connection with liquidations of limited companies, RevU 2, has also been taken into consideration.

Page 21: Launch of taxonomies for companies using the K2 …/taxonomies.pdf · Launch of taxonomies for companies using the K2 accounting category 3 October 2017 ... Balancesheet XXX XX XXX

Taxonomy for auditor’s report -Classification in three levels

– Level one - main heading Auditor’s report. In this level there is also an introduction and ending that is the same for all, containing recipient, company, company registration number, location, date and signature

– Level two consists of the two parts of the auditor’s report. Part one is the Report on the annual report and part two is the Report on other legal and regulatory requirements

– Level three consists of the various other section headings

Page 22: Launch of taxonomies for companies using the K2 …/taxonomies.pdf · Launch of taxonomies for companies using the K2 accounting category 3 October 2017 ... Balancesheet XXX XX XXX

Taxonomy for auditor’s report - considerations

• With regard to the many types of remarks, there is a great number of theoretical combinations in the headings of the sections. – For practical reasons FAR has decided not to predefine the possible

headings in this classification – The taxonomy is constructed so that the heading choices for the

section on remarks are left as free text, whilst other headings are predefined according to RevR 700 and RevR 705

Extended information

• Based on feedback from the PWD period

• Facilitates tagging of information not defined in existing taxonomies

• Information that can be tagged:‒ heading changes

‒ undefined terms

‒ note links

2017-10-11 24

Page 25: Launch of taxonomies for companies using the K2 …/taxonomies.pdf · Launch of taxonomies for companies using the K2 accounting category 3 October 2017 ... Balancesheet XXX XX XXX

Status of Extended information

• The taxonomy and documentation about the structure have been published on taxonomier.se.

• The documentation about the application has yet to be published unfortunately but this is planned for the coming weeks so keep your eyes open! ☺

• The information will contain the following:1. A number of examples with various scenarios

2. A description of the application

Page 26: Launch of taxonomies for companies using the K2 …/taxonomies.pdf · Launch of taxonomies for companies using the K2 accounting category 3 October 2017 ... Balancesheet XXX XX XXX

About heading changes

• Facilitates logging of heading changes in the presentation headings in the taxonomy

• Uses XBRL’s footnotes with an adapted role

2017-10-11 26

Page 27: Launch of taxonomies for companies using the K2 …/taxonomies.pdf · Launch of taxonomies for companies using the K2 accounting category 3 October 2017 ... Balancesheet XXX XX XXX

About undefined terms

• Facilitates tagging of terms missing in the taxonomy in order to make them machine readable

• Has its own structure in which the structure of the information is tagged as ’key/value’ pairs. The content is ’raw data’ and lacks a clear definition

• It can be specified whether the value is monetary, numerical or textual

‒ Monetary values can even be debit/credit

• This should only be used for new notes, for example, or when terms cannot be found in the existing taxonomy

2017-10-11 27

Page 28: Launch of taxonomies for companies using the K2 …/taxonomies.pdf · Launch of taxonomies for companies using the K2 accounting category 3 October 2017 ... Balancesheet XXX XX XXX

Note linkage

• Facilitates linking of terms in profit and loss statement and balance sheet with notes for reading by machine

• It has its own structure in which terms are linked

• At present it does not handle note linkage, which is done for example between headings in the balance sheet and a note.

‒ there is an investigation underway looking into making even this possible
