    There was a good article in the Courier Mail* some time ago, when the IFRS for Revenue Recognition had just come out, and the article intimated that .....
    a) Revenue now could not be recognised in the P&L up front, but had to be recognised piecemeal.
    b) R&D did not have to be expensed in the P&L, it could be capitalised in the BS, and depreciated over it's life.
    c) TNE was very prudent (too prudent) by expensing R&D, when it did not have too.

    The article intimated that changing TNE's R&D policy (as allowed by IFRS) would offset any change forced upon it regarding Revenue Recognition. The net effect of doing both with regards to Net Profit was therefore minimal.
