Q

Q

IFRS 9 - Accounting treatement

  • for derecognition
  • no dercognition
  • continued involvement
A

1 Asset qualifies for DeRecognition :
- dereognise asset in entirety
- record NEW asset for cashflows retained
2- No DeRecognition :
a- continue recognising asset in entirety
b- no offset of assets + liabs or income + expenses
c- record liability for amounts received:
(i) Written Put/purchased call option :
Amort cost :
liab = cash received
amortised to exercise price
FV-call option :
asset FV/option strike price
less option time value
if option money =
in/at : liab = exercise price
out : liab = asset FV
FV-written put :
option strike price
plus option time value
Asset FV limited to option strike price !
3- Continued Involvement :
- Partial DeRecognition of Asset
- Guarantee :
asset/liab for guaranteed amt
+ liab for FV of guarantee recognised over time

Q

IFRS 9 - How are financial asset measured at initial recognition ?

A

1-Trade receivables w/o sign financing : at transaction value
2-All other :
FV + incr. transaction cost (FVTOCI or Amort Cost)

Exceptions :
- if not traded at FV (unit of acct, interco, forced, etc)
- includes comp for something else than Fin Instr
(eg loan w/no interest - FV = discounted value)
3-Acctg treatment of diff w/FV :
FV level 1 or 2 w/only observable inputs => PL
FV level 3 => FV is adjusted

Q

IFRS 9 - Technique to determine change in FV due to own credit risk in Fin Liabs ?

A

Own credit risk = Difference of
1) FV of instrument AND
2) PV of
a) instrument’s remaining cashflow
b) discount rate :
current benchmark rate
+ original instrument specific rate
3) Instrument specific rate =
Internal rate
less benchmark (eg libor) interest rate

at initial recognition date
=>instrument specific rate
4) Assumes that changes due to other than credit risk + benchmark are insignificant

21
Q

IFRS 9 - What + when are acquisition cost added to financial asset value ?

A

1) only incremental acquisition cost
(that would not have been incurred if specific transaction did not take place)

(II) FVTOCI

FV hedge “fixed items” :
- Fixed rate items’ risks - Interest, credit, termination option

Unrecognized firm commitments
Cashflow hedge “variable items
- Variable rate items’ risks - Interest, credit, termination option
(eg variable interest bond swaped for a fixed rate)
Highly probable forecast trans
Foreign currency risk :
can be treated as either cashflow or FV hedge

41
Q

IFRS 9 - Impairment what approach is applied when ?

A

1 - Simplified approach :
Trade receivables*,
Contract asset*,
Lease receivables*
*w/o sign financing component or if entity selects to apply life time expected credit loss
2 - General approach - all other

42
Q

IFRS 9 - Stages of the general approach impairment loss allowance ?

A

Stage 1 :
- 12 months expected credit loss
- low risk assets- collective assessment
Stage 2 :
- life time expected credit loss
- risk increased sign since initial recognition
- assumed if overdue for more than 30 days
Stage 3 :
- life time expected credit loss
- impaired fin asset evidenced by event- assumed if overdue more than 90 days

43
Q

IFRS 9 - How are expected credit losses calculated ?

A

A-General approach :
Stage 1)
12 months expected credit loss :
Expected Life time credit loss
Weighted w/probability of occurence within 12 months
Discounted to expected timing
Stage 2)
Life time expected credit loss :
Carrying amount less
PV of expected cash flows
Weighted with probability of occurance
For various periods

Effective int rate NOT adjusted

Stage 3)
Same as 2

Effective int rate adjusted
B- Simplified approach :
Nominal (non-discounted) amounts
split by aging
weighted by loss probability percentage

44
Q

IFRS 9 - For assets/liabilities measured at amortised cost/FVTOCI, when is the effective interest rate updated ?

A

1 - Stage 3 credit impaired assets
(in accordance with the expected cashflows)
2 - Variable rate debt instruments,
(upon change of the variable rate)
3- Upon modification/renegotiation that result in de-recognition of the financial liability
If NOT, new carrying amt = new cashflows @ original effective interest
Difference => PL
4) Fair value hedge items at amortised cost when no further FV adjustments

45
Q

IFRS 9 - Impairment loss : what discount rates should be used ?

A

1) Lease receivable :
discount rate used for lease receivable
2) Loan commitment/guarantee :
Estimate of rate that would be used when recognising the asset or
iI not possible : market rate for time value + risks not included in cashflows
3) Other :
Effective interest rate at initial recognition,
Approximation thereof,
Current rate for variable rate instruments

46

49
Q

IFRS 9 - accounting treatment of collaterals ?

A

1) if transferee has the right to sell or repledge the collateral
TRANSFEROR should reclass asset (eg loaned asset, pledged equity instr, repurchase receivable)
2) sale of collateral by transferee w/o default of transferor :
transferee recognizes proceeds + liab to retrun collateral
3) On default + loss of right to collateral of transferor :
Transferor - derecognise / transferee - recognise asset/sales proceeds
4) except for 3 above transferee/transferror shall NOT recognise/derecognise collateral
