The purpose of this diagram is to summarise the main recognition requirements of the Standard for provisions and contingent liabilities.
Note: in rare cases, it is not clear whether there is a present obligation. In these cases, a past event is deemed to give rise to a present obligation if, taking account of all available evidence, it is more likely than not that a present obligation exists at the end of the reporting period (paragraph 15 of the Standard).
