[edit]

this article still can be expanded a bit. An explanation how equity issue is reflected on the retained earnings statent would be nice to have --Maxx.T 12:14, 27 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Good point - at least stock issues are now mentioned. --Hroðulf (or Hrothulf) (Talk) 11:13, 29 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Unsourced

[edit]

Material allegedly from self-published sources have been removed, per this. I think that tagging for deletion at this time isn't the best option because the article has a neutral tone and doesn't look obviously problematic. I think tagging with UNSOURCED is sufficient, so I have made this change. Pine 09:24, 11 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding the SPS, check the publisher. A document sourced entirely from an SPS sets off massive alarm bells about non-standard theoretical conceptions. No indication of notability. It is still eminently deleteable. I'm giving it a fortnight. Fifelfoo (talk) 03:28, 15 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Changing this article's name to "Statement of Changes in Equity"

[edit]

Currently, Statement of Changes in Equity redirects here, as if those two statements are the same.

Yet, according to some articles (as this and this) those two are two different financial statements.

Also, the most reliable and professional source for accounting - the IFRS - calls this statement: "Statement of Changes in Equity", and when Retained Earnings are mentioned in the name of a statement it is in "Statement of Income and Retained Earnings" (See: IFRS Module 6).

I think that the article as it is now is a mixure of both (different) statements, so we must either:

  1. Decide which of them this article is talking about, make some adjusments, then create another article for the other.
  2. Change its name as I proposed (since that is the name in IFRS) and then let the article describe the equity statement. Orielno (talk) 16:51, 12 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I've requested the name change as this page should be moved to reflect the articles content ThinkingTwice contribs | talk 15:47, 14 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
