Do Croatian quoted companies satisfy IFRS disclosure requirements of accounting estimates for investment property?
Accounting estimates occur because a large number of items in financial statements cannot be measured precisely but can only be estimated. Significant accounting estimates are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements. The aim of the paper was to identify whether Croatian quoted companies disclose all information about accounting estimates related to the Investment property, as required by IAS 40. The research included 132 quoted companies in Croatia that apply IFRSs. The research results showed that investment property has a relatively small share in the structure of total assets of quoted companies in Croatia, which is probably one of the reasons why related accounting estimates published in the notes are brief and incomplete. The general conclusion is that the notes regarding accounting estimates on investment property are composed of definitions set in the standard, instead of providing more transparent information for investors and other interested users of financial statements. As expected, the companies with the higher share of investment property have shown greater level of transparency, providing additional information which is not required by the standards.
