    Retrospectively only

    Explanation:

    Changes in accounting estimate is applied in selecting and applying accounting policies, accounting for changes in estimates and reflecting corrections of prior period errors.

    Accounting estimates are the estimations used by management to recognize amounts in the financial statements where precise values cannot be determined.

    Where an accounting estimate has to be revised based on information that was already available at the time of preparation of prior period financial statements, the effect of revision must be recognized retrospectively as it constitutes a correction of prior period error.
