An entity’s functional currency is the currency used in its primary economic
environment. Indicators of functional currency include the currency used for the
majority of sales, for purchases of raw materials, to pay labour, to raise finance,
the currency used to retain cash receipts and the currency used within
competitive forces.

The indicators make no reference to the currency used in the country of
incorporation, tax jurisdictions or head office locations.

Subsidiaries can have a different functional currency to that of their parent.

An entity can choose its presentation currency and it can be different to its
functional currency.
