Q

Common features of Agricultural Activity:

A

(1) Capability to Change [biological transformation] (2) Management of change [harvesting from unmanged sources such as ocea fishing and deforestation is not agricultural activity] (3) Measurement of change [change in quality or quantity brought about by biological transformation or harvest is measured and monitored]

Q

T/F: The FV of a Biological Asset or Agricultural Produce is adjusted because of the existence of a contract.

A

False. Even if the price in the contract is different from the FV less costs to sell, the measurement is still at the latter

19
Q

If an active market does not exist, an entity uses one or more of the ff., when available, in determining FV:

A

(1) Most recent market transaction price (provided that there has not been a significant change in econ circumstances between the date of that transaction and the end of the reporting period) (2) Market Prices for similar assets with adjustment to reflect differences (3) Sector Benchmarks

20
Q

When market-determined prices or values may not be available for a Biological Asset in its present condition, an entity uses the ____

A

Present Value of expected net cash flows from the asset discounted at a current market-determined rate in determining FV

21
Q

T/F: An entity does not include any cash flows for financing the assets, taxation, or re-establishing Biological Assets after harvest (such as the cost of replanting trees in a plantation forest after harvest)

A

True.

22
Q

Cost may sometimes approximate FV when:

A

(1) Little Biological Transformation has taken place since initial cost incurrence (2) The Impact of the Biological Transformation on price is not expected to be material

23
Q

If there is no market for Biological Assets that are attached to the land but there is an Active Market for the combines assets (biolocial assets, raw land, and land improvements as a package), the entity may use information regarding the combined assets to determine

A

FV for the biological assets. Ex: FV of the combined assets - FV of raw land and land improvements = FV of Biological Assets

24
Q

Gain or Loss from Initial Recognition of a Biological Asset at FV less costs to sell and from a Change in FV less costs to sell of a biological asset shall be included in ____

A

Statement of Profit or Loss for the period in which it arises

25
Q

Loss may arise on initial recognition since ___

A

Costs to sell are deducted in determining FV less costs to sell of a Biological Asset

26
Q

Gain or Loss from Initial Recognition of Agricultural Produce at FV less costs to sell shall be included in ____

A

Statement of Profit or Loss for the period in which it arises

27
Q

When initial recognition for a Biological Asset for which Market-determined Prices are not available AND for which Alternative Estimates of FV are determined to be clearly Unreliable, that Biological Asset shall be measured at its ____

A

Cost less any Acc Dep and any Acc Impairment Losses. Once the FV becomes reliably measurable, an entity shall measre it at its FV less costs to sell

28
Q

T/F: Once a non-current Biological Asset meets the criteria to be classified as held for sale (or included in a disposal group that is classified as held for sale) in accordance with IFRS 5, it is presumed that FV can be measured reliably

A

True.

29
Q

T/F: The presumption that FV can be measured reliably for a Biological Asset can be rebutted at any point

A

False. It can only be rebutted on initial recognition

30
Q

An Unconditional Gov’t Grant related to a Biological Asset measured at ____ shall be recognized in _____ only when _____

A

FV less costs to sell; profit or loss; the gov’t grant becomes receivable

31
Q

If a gov’t grant related to a Biological Asset measured at its FV less costs to sell is Conditional, inlcuding when a gov’t grant requires an entity not to engage in specified agricultural activity, an entity shall recognize the government grant in profit or loss only when ___

A

The conditions attaching to the gov’t grant are met

32
Q

T/F: An entity shall disclose the aggregate Gain/Loss arising during the current period on initial recognition of Biological Assets and Agricultural Produce and from the Change in FV less costs to sell of Biological Assets

A

True.

33
Q

T/F: An entity shall not provide a description of each group of Biological Assets.

A

False. The entity shall provide that
