Re￿Ipt of a legacy must be recognised vthen it is probable that it will be recetved and the fair value of the amount recewable, which will generally be the expected cash amount to be distributed to the charity, can be reliabty measured. Income tax recoverable in relation to investment income is recognised at the time the investment income is re￿1Vable. 1.3 Expenditure Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third paty, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.
