Reconciliations
28 An entity shall provide reconciliations of all of the following:
(a) the total of the reportable segments’ revenues to the entity’s revenue;
(b) the total of the reportable segments’ measures of profit or loss to the entity’s profit or loss before tax expense (tax income) and discontinued operations. However, if an entity allocates to reportable segments items such as tax expense (tax income), the entity may reconcile the total of the segments’ measures of profit or loss to the entity’s profit or loss after those items;
(c) the total of the reportable segments’ assets to the entity’s assets if the segment assets are reported in accordance with paragraph 23;
(d) the total of the reportable segments’ liabilities to the entity’s liabilities if segment liabilities are reported in accordance with paragraph 23; and
(e) the total of the reportable segments’ amounts for every other material item of information disclosed to the corresponding amount for the entity.
All material reconciling items shall be separately identified and described. For example, the amount of each material adjustment needed to reconcile reportable segment profit or loss to the entity’s profit or loss arising from different accounting policies shall be separately identified and described.
