Long before the issuance of IFRS, the issue of Big GAAP and Little GAAP had
emerged. IFRS standards are intended for large companies, not small and
medium enterprises (SMEs, or small and medium enterprises, SMEs). For
SMEs, the application of these standards is too expensive, inefficient and also
ineffective. The costs are large, so is the time they spend preparing financial
statements. Therefore, special standards for SMEs are needed.
