plz confirm this;
there is a difference in prospective application of a change in accounting estimate and a change in acounting policy
Prospective application of a change in acountingpolicy means;(para 8.5) applying the new accounting policy to transactions,other events and conditions occurring after the dateas at which the policy is changed; and
propective application of a change in accounting estimate mean Recognizing the effect of the change in the accounting estimate in the current and future periods affected by the change.
for example,lets consider date is 30 dec 2005 , onthis datethere is a change in acounting policy,we wud applythis change prospectively from 1 jan 2006 & ifthere is a change in accounting estimate,we wud applythis change prospectively from 1 jan 2005
