It is not clear whether the lease transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership. However, management judge the lease to be an operating lease and therefore the lease is accounted for as an executory contract. Had the lease been judged to be a finance lease, the entity would have recognised the leased asset and a corresponding lease liability and it would have apportioned lease payments between finance costs and the repayment of the liability. It would also have depreciated the leased asset over its useful life. The entity’s commitment to make future non-cancellable lease payments for the use of the jet is set out in note 40. * see example 3 in Module 8 of the IFRS Foundation training material © 2011 IFRS Foundation Section 8 – key measurement assumptions 70 • Ex 4* Fair value of financial instruments Financial assets and financial liabilities that are not basic financial instruments (see note 12) are carried at their fair value, with changes in fair value recorded in profit or loss. When no active market exists, or when quoted prices are not otherwise available, judgement is required in determining fair value. In these circumstances, fair value is determined using a variety of valuation techniques including present value methods, models based on observable input parameters, and models where some of the input parameters are unobservable. * see example 4 in Module 8 of the IFRS Foundation training material © 2011 IFRS Foundation Section 8 – key measurement assumptions 71 • Ex 4 continued: Valuation models are used primarily to value derivatives transacted in the over-the-counter market, including credit derivatives and unlisted securities with embedded derivatives. All valuation models are validated before they are used, and periodically reviewed thereafter, by independent qualified financial instrument valuation experts. Wherever possible, valuations derived from models are compared with quoted prices of similar financial instruments, and with actual values when realised, in order to further validate and calibrate our models. © 2011 IFRS Foundation Section 8 – key measurement assumptions 72 • Ex 4 continued: Our models incorporate information about the actual or estimated market prices and rates, time value, volatility, market depth and liquidity among others. When available, we use market observable prices and rates derived from market verifiable data. When such factors are not market observable, changes in assumptions could affect the reported fair value of financial instruments. The models are applied from one period to the next. However, estimating fair value inherently involves a significant degree of judgement. Management therefore establishes valuation adjustments to cover the risks associated with the estimation of unobservable input parameters and the assumptions within the models themselves. © 2011 IFRS Foundation Section 8 – key measurement assumptions 73 • Ex 4 continued: Valuation adjustments are also made to reflect such elements as aged positions, deteriorating creditworthiness (including country-specific risks), concentrations in specific types of instruments and market risk factors (interest rates, currencies etc), and market depth and liquidity. Although a significant degree of judgement is, in some cases, required in establishing fair values, management believes the fair values recorded in the statement of financial position and the changes in fair values recorded in the statement of comprehensive income are reflective of the underlying economics, based on the controls and procedural safeguards employed. © 2011 IFRS Foundation Section 8 – key measurement assumptions 74 • Ex 4 continued: Nevertheless, management have estimated the effect that a change in assumptions to reasonably possible alternatives could have on fair values where model inputs are not market observable. For all financial instruments carried at fair value which rely on assumptions for their valuation, we estimate that fair value could lie in a range from CU500,000 lower to CU500,000 higher than the fair values of CU2,000,000 (see note 12) recognised in the financial statements. © 2011 IFRS Foundation The IFRS for SMEs 75 Section 10 Accounting Policies, Estimates and Errors © 2011 IFRS Foundation Section 10 – scope Section 10 • Provides guidance for selecting and applying the accounting policies • Specifies accounting for – changes in accounting estimates – corrections of errors in prior period financial statements © 2011 IFRS Foundation 76 Section 10 – accounting policies hierarchy77 • If IFRS for SMEs addresses an issue, must follow IFRS for SMEs • If not – choose policy that results in most relevant and reliable information by –1st try to analogise from requirements in other sections –2nd use concepts/pervasive principles in Section 2 –may also (not required) look to full IFRSs © 2011 IFRS Foundation Section 10 – accounting policies hierarchy78 • Ex 5*: A received a grant of CU50,000 from a non-government development agency to set up farming operations in a specified rural area. IFRS for SMEs does not specify how to account for a grant from a non-government agency. However, it specifies how to account for government grants (Section 24 Government Grants). By analogy, A should account for the grant received in accordance with Section 24. * see example 5 in Module 10 of the IFRS Foundation training material © 2011 IFRS Foundation Section 10 – consistency of acc. policies 79 • Select and apply its accounting policies consistently for similar transactions, other events and conditions • Change accounting policy only if – is required by change to IFRS for SMEs (compulsory) – results in reliable and more relevant information (voluntary) © 2011 IFRS Foundation 80 Section 10 – accounting policies • Ex 7*: A measures invest’s in associates at fair value. Because it cannot determine the fair value of its investment in associate B, it measures it using the cost model. A’s accounting policy is acceptable. Sect 14 requires A choose cost, equity method, or fair value. If choose fair value still use cost for investments if impracticable to measure fair value reliably without undue cost or effort (see paragraph 14.10). * see example 7 in Module 10 of the IFRS Foundation training material © 2011 IFRS Foundation Section 10 – accounting policies 81 • Ex 9*: A’s acc. policy = account for investments in associates at fair value and jointly controlled entities at cost. None of A’s investments are traded in a public securities market. A’s accounting policies are acceptable. Its policy for associates need not be the same as its policy for jointly controlled entities. * see example 9 in Module 10 of the IFRS Foundation training material © 2011 IFRS Foundation Section 10 – change in accounting policy82 • Change accounting policy if – if mandated, follow the transition guidance as mandated – if voluntary, retrospective application –impracticability exemption • Disclosures © 2011 IFRS Foundation Section 10 – retrospective application 83 • Ex 20*: In 20X7 A voluntarily changed an accounting policy.

The comparative figures in its 20X9 financial statements must be restated to correct the effects of the prior period errors [if material]. * see example 29 in Module 10 of the IFRS Foundation training material © 2011 IFRS Foundation The IFRS for SMEs Section 30 Foreign Currency Translation © 2011 IFRS Foundation 92 93 Section 30 – background An entity can have transactions in foreign currencies and it can have foreign operations. It may also present its FS in a foreign currency. Accounting for financial instruments denominated in a foreign currency and hedge accounting of foreign currency items are dealt with in Sections 11 and 12 (session on PM day-2 of this workshop). © 2011 IFRS Foundation Section 30 – scope 94 Section 30 prescribes how to: –determine an entity’s functional currency –measure foreign currency transactions –include foreign operations in FS (see session on PM day-3 of this workshop) –translate FS into a presentation currency (see session on PM day-3 of this workshop). It also specifies disclosures. © 2011 IFRS Foundation Section 30 – functional currency 95 • Each entity identifies its functional currency―the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (ie normally the one in which it primarily generates and expends cash) • A foreign currency transaction is a transaction that is denominated or requires settlement in a foreign currency (ie a currency other than the entity’s functional currency) © 2011 IFRS Foundation Section 30 – determine functional currency96 • Most important factors to consider when determining an entity’s functional currency: – the currency: –that mainly influences sales prices (often the currency in which its sales are denominated and settled), and –of the country whose competitive forces and regulations mainly determine its sales prices. – the currency that mainly influences labour, material & other costs of providing goods or services (this will often be the currency in which such costs are denominated and settled). © 2011 IFRS Foundation Section 30 – disclose functional 97 currency • Disclose currency in which financial statements are presented • If presentation currency is not functional currency disclose: – that fact – the functional currency – reason for using a different presentation currency • When functional currency of entity or a significant operation changes disclose: – that fact – reason for the change © 2011 IFRS Foundation Section 30 – change functional currency 98 • Change functional currency only if change to underlying transactions, events and conditions – eg a change in the currency that mainly influences the sales prices of goods and services • Accounted for change prospectively – translate all items using the exchange rate at the date of the change – resulting translated amounts for nonmonetary items are treated as their historical cost © 2011 IFRS Foundation Section 30 – foreign currency transaction 99 • Initial recognition – measure a foreign currency transaction in the functional currency using the spot exchange rate on the date when the transaction first qualifies for recognition © 2011 IFRS Foundation Section 30 – examples initial recognition 100 • Ex 1: A’s functional currency is CU. On 1/12/20X1 A buys goods on credit for FCU100,000 (FCU denominated) when spot currency exchange rate = FCU1:CU2. On 1/12/20X1 A recognises inventories and trade payables of CU200,000. © 2011 IFRS Foundation Section 30 – examples initial recognition 101 • Ex 2: A’s functional currency is CU. On 1/12/20X1 A buys an investment property for FCU100,000 when the spot currency exchange rate = FCU1:CU2 (ie A pays CU200,000). A accounts for the investment property at its fair value. On 1/12/20X1 A recognises its investment property at CU200,000. © 2011 IFRS Foundation Section 30 – subsequent measurement 102 • At the end of each reporting period – translate foreign currency monetary items using the closing rate; – translate non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction; and – translate non-monetary items that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined. © 2011 IFRS Foundation Section 30 – translation gains and losses 103 • Monetary items –recognise, in profit or loss when the exchange differences arise (ie on settlement or on retranslating (exception see paragraph 30.13). • Non-monetary items –recognise exchange differences (in profit or loss or OCI) follows classification of the underlying item. • Disclose –amount of exchange differences recognised in profit or loss (excluding those on items carried using the fair value model) © 2011 IFRS Foundation Section 30 – subsequent measurement 104 • Ex 1 continued: On 31/12/20X1 (A’s year-end) the spot currency exchange rate = FCU1:CU2.1. On 1/2/20X2 when the spot rate = FCU1:CU2.05 A pays CU205,000 to settle the FCU100,000 liability. At 31/12/20X1 A reports the trade payable at CU210,000 and recognises loss of CU10,000 in profit or loss. On 1/2/20X2 A derecognises the FCU100,000 payable and recognises gain of CU5,000. © 2011 IFRS Foundation Section 30 – subsequent measurement 105 • Ex 2 continued: On 31/12/20X1 (A’s financial year-end) the fair value of the investment property = FCU100,000 (ie coincidentally no change) and the spot currency exchange rate = FCU1:CU2.1. At 31/12/20X1 A remeasures the investment property at CU210,000 and records a gain of CU10,000 as a change in fair value (rather than exchange difference) in profit or loss. © 2011 IFRS Foundation Section 30 – subsequent measurement 106 • Ex 3: Same as Ex 2 except: – A accounts for its investment property using the cost model (because its fair value cannot be measured reliably on an ongoing basis). At 31/12/20X1 A records the investment property at CU200,000 (ie no remeasurement because it is a nonmonetary asset carried at historical cost). © 2011 IFRS Foundation Section 30 – presentation & disclosure 107 • The amount of exchange differences recognised in profit or loss (other than those arising from fair value changes) • Non-monetary items –recognise exchange differences (in profit or loss or OCI) follows classification of the underlying item. © 2011 IFRS Foundation The IFRS for SMEs 108 Section 32 Events after the End of the Reporting Period © 2011 IFRS Foundation Section 32 – scope 109 Events after the end of the reporting period are those events, favourable and unfavourable, that occur between the end of the reporting period and the date when the financial statements are authorised for issue. © 2011 IFRS Foundation Section 32 – types of events 110 Two types of events after the end of the reporting period – adjusting events―those that provide evidence of conditions that existed at the end of the reporting period – non-adjusting events―those that are indicative of conditions that arose after the end of the reporting period © 2011 IFRS Foundation Section 32 – accounting and reporting 111 • Adjusting events—adjust the amounts recognised (and update disclosures made) in its financial statements • Non-adjusting events—do not adjust the amounts recognised in its financial statements. However, disclose: –the nature of the event, and –an estimate of its financial effect, or a statement that estimate cannot be made © 2011 IFRS Foundation 112 Section 32 – example adjusting event • Ex 7*: On 31/12/20X5 A assessed its warranty obligation as CU100,000. Before its 20X5 financial statements were authorised for issue, A discovered a latent defect in one of its lines of products. It reassessed its warranty obligation at 31/12/20X5 at CU150,000. Adjusting event―latent defect existed at 31/12/20X5.

At 31/12/20X0 the fair value of A’s investment in B’s publicly traded shares = CU20,000. On 28/2/20X1 fair value of shares = CU25,000. * see example 12 in Module 32 of the IFRS Foundation training material © 2011 IFRS Foundation Section 32 – example non-adjusting event114 Ex 12 continued: Non-adjusting event―the change in the fair value results from conditions that arose after 20X0. A does not adjust the amounts recognised in its financial statements. However, it must give additional disclosure see paragraph 32.10. © 2011 IFRS Foundation Section 32 – disclosure non-adjusting 115 • Ex 15*: 1/3/20X1 A’s 31/12/20X0 FS authorised for issue when spot ex rate = CU2.5:FCU1. At 31/12/20X0 spot ex rate = CU2:FCU1. A measured its FCU2,000,000 unhedged non-current liability at CU4,000,000 in SOFP. * see example 15 in Module 32 of the IFRS Foundation training material © 2011 IFRS Foundation Section 32 – disclosure non-adjusting • Ex 15 continued: 116 Note 20 Events after the end of the reporting period The financial statements were authorised for issue on 1 March 20X1 when the exchange rate was CU2.5:FCU1.
