Abstract

This study aims to compare and analyze the difference between AAOIFI standards and PSAK 111. The method used in this study in content analysis. This study found that AAOIFI standards cover almost all of the areas covered under PSAK 111. However, AAOIFI standards are argued to be more holistic, focused and specific compared to PSAK 111. AAOIFI tends to encourage takaful operators to use wakalah model. Pro-forma Statement of policyholders’ surplus and deficit in FAS 12 only recognized the distribution of underwriting surplus to policyholders, while PSAK 111 recognized distribution both to policyholders and takaful operators. PSAK 111 recognized modified wakalah model for takaful operators. Consequently, Pro-forma Income statement in FAS 12 only recognized three sources of revenue of takaful operators. They are investment revenue (from shareholder’s equity), wakalah fee (ujrah) and profit-sharing investment (from policyholder’s fund), while PSAK 111 also included income from distribution of underwriting surplus.
 Keywords: Accounting Practices, Takaful Operators, AAOIFI, PSAK 111
