PELAPORAN LABA KOMPREHENSIF DAN IMPLIKASINYA DALAM PRAKTIK

ABSTRACT: FASB defined comprehensive income in Statement of Financial Concept 6. Comprehesive income is another way of looking at the asset-liability approach (balance-sheet view) to income. Financial reporting needs to reflect this approach of income because, the traditional approach to income is too narrow. Using asset-liability approach can help financial statement user to understand information income with their own judgment. The difficulty is that focus on measurement of assets and liabilities does not give adequate recognation to the importance of measurement of result operations. This is need to define concept of operating income and to measure the net changes in equity resulting from the remeasurement of assets and liabilities. There are variety of ways to report comprehensive income, such as: a) created total comprehensive income as bottom line of income statement; b) displaying comprehensive income component (CIC) in separate new statement, and c) in a statement of changes in equity. Most of firms in US chose  c) format during fiscal years 1997-1999. Firms with negative CIC were more likely to disclose CIC  in the statement of stockholders equity, whereas firms with positive CIC more likely to report CIC in the income statement. Foreign currency adjustment represent the largest CIC. Earnings per share would be negatively affected by the inclusion of CIC. The impact of SFAS No. 130 will vary from industry to industry, but foreign currency translations will affect a majority of the multinational firms in most industries. If the objectives of reporting comprehensive income are met, financial statement users should gain additional insights into a company’s activities, which should enable them to better predict future cash flows. Investors and creditors might shift their focus toward comprehensive income and broader income concept should play expanding role in the future fi-nancial decisions.
