Aggregating and disaggregating: principles, roles of the statements and the label "other"

Step 1 of 6Learning objectives

Go deeper+1 point of attention

Items are aggregated according to their shared characteristics and disaggregated when they differ, without obscuring material information and without a numerical threshold. The primary statements summarise, the notes detail, and the label "other" is used only when no more useful label is available.

Learning objectives

  • Explain the principles of aggregation and disaggregation, with no numerical threshold.
  • Distinguish the role of a primary statement from that of a note and place a material piece of information.
