FUNDS FOR FUTURE USE
These are funds in the form of cash or highly liquid financial instruments which the enterprise holds for specific
purpose.
CATEGORIES OF FUNDS:
1. Funds that are set aside to be use in current operations – immediately available for use for payment of
current operating expenses ,currently maturing obligations or resources that are current assets and this funds are
classified as current asset in the balance sheet. This was already discussed in our topic regarding a cash and cash
equivalents.
Example : Working funds ( Petty cash fund, change fund, payroll funds and etc.)
II. Funds that are set aside to be use for specific purpose in the future– This funds are normally restricted
for a specific purpose. These funds are classified as non-current assets in the balance sheet. This is going to be the
focus our topic.
Examples : Equipment acquisition fund, plant expansion fund, sinking fund ,preference share redemption fund and
employees retirement fund.
LONG-TERM FUNDS
• Represents cash and highly liquid financial instruments which the entity holds and designates for some specific
purposes such as plant expansion, equipment acquisition, retirement of maturing bonds, redemption of preference
shares and retirement of employees under pension plan.
• The accumulation of the funds is made by an entity resulting from a contract ( such as sinking fund for bond
retirement) or a voluntary action by the management ( such fund, was plant expansion fund).
• The entity determines the amount that it has to deposit or transfer to the fund, with an expected yield so that it
would have accumulated enough amount required in the fund.
• If the fund accumulated has an excess amount , this amount shall be reverted to the general cash account :
CASH XX
LONG-TERM FUNDS XX
• There are instances wherein the cash in the fund is invested temporarily in other financial instruments that will
provide additional income in the form of cash and cash equivalents. Any returns are taken in the profit or loss
section ( example: interest income, dividend income )
ILLUSTRATIVE PROBLEM:
On January 1,2019, ABC Company issued a P 10,000,000 bonds that will mature in 5 years. The management decided
to set up a separate fund for the retirement of these bonds (payment). The fund is to be placed in a separate
account to be maintained in the company’s depository bank.
In a board resolution, it was decided that deposits of equal amounts will be made every June 30 and December 31,
starting June 30,2019 up to December 31,2023. The company expects to earn an average interest of 10%, net of tax,
on this investment.
With this problem, the required periodic deposit would be computed by the face value of the bond by the Future Value
Factor of an Ordinary Annuity. Here, we are not going to use the present value factors because we are not finding the
value of bond today or currently. To compute for the Future value factor of an ordinary annuity for this problem, it will
be (1.05xx========= -1) /0.05. From here you’ll get a FV factor of ordinary annuity for 10 periods at 12.5778925….
You can also check this FV factor in the table at the back of you book. This FV factor will be then used as a divisor to
get the periodic deposit to accumulate the P 10,000,000 on December 31,2023.
= 795,045.75
TABLE FOR ACCUMULATION OF
FUND
Assuming on January 1,2019, ABC Company decided to segregate a fund for acquisition of an equipment

LONG-TERM ADVANCES /DEPOSITS
• long term advances and deposits are categorized as loans and receivables , which are carried at the balance sheet at
amortized cost using the effective interest method. These advances and deposits are recorded at its present value at
the time the cash were advanced based on the market rate of interest at initial recognition.
• After the initial recognition until the date of settlement, interest income is recognized in the books.
• Topic on security deposits will be discussed in your topic regarding leases.
ILLUSTRATIVE PROBLEM:
On January 1,2019, ABC Company approved a non-interest bearing note from its president amounting
to P 4,000,000.The advance is to be settled by the president on December 31,2021. On January 1,2019,
the market rate of interest for similar obligations is 12%.
So to record the advance given to the president, the present value of the note must first be computed. Because the
note is to be repaid on December 31,2021, the PV of single payment for 3 period at 12% will be used.

Jan 1 Advances to Officers 2,847,120.99
Prepaid compensation Expense 1,152,879.01
Cash 4,000,000*
Normally because a related party to the company was given advances, the assumption here is that they are
not charged with interest because normally this advances are used for business purposes and will be later
reimbursed by the officer. But due to the application of time value of money, the amount advanced is
recognized in the books at its present value. So at the date of initial recognition the difference between the
present value and the face value of the note is recognized as prepaid compensation expense and this prepaid
compensation expense is spread uniformly on the term of the loan. With the application of time value of
money, interest accruing to the note will be recognized as interest income and there will be an increase in the
advances to officers account to bring it to its maturity value at maturity date. Alternatively, if the company
granted the officer by disbursing the the cash equivalent to the present value of the note ( 2,847,120.00), it
means that company charges an interest to the officer (normally this happens when an officer borrows money
from the company other than business purpose, the accounting of this case is the same like the accounting for
a non-interest bearing note receivable. The entry would be as follows:
Cash 4,000,000
Advances to Officers 4,000,000
C ASH SURRENDER VALUE OF LIFE
INSURANCE
• This is the amount expected to be collected from the insurance company in the event of surrender of life insurance policy.
• The cash surrender value of life insurance is recognized only in the books of the entity when it pays for the
premium on the life insurance of its officer/s, believing that the loss of their officer/s will significantly affect the
entity’s operations. In addition, the beneficiary named in the insurance policy is the entity/corporation. If the named
beneficiary is other than the corporation, the premium being paid by the entity is treated as an additional benefit or compensation to the
officer insured.Thus, no cash surrender value of the life insurance accrues in the entity’s books.
• Premiums on the life insurance being paid by the entity are charges to the life insurance expense and is taken in the profit
or loss section of the statement of comprehensive income (SCI)
• The cash surrender value of life insurance accrues to the entity and should be reported as a non-current asset of
the entity at the end of each reporting period. The increase in cash surrender value during a reporting period, as well as dividends
received or receivable (if any) are adjustments to the life insurance expense.
• In the event of the death of the insured officer, the life insurance expense is adjusted on the date of death. The claim
against the insurance company is established and the cash surrender value of life insurance is derecognized. The difference
between the amount receivable from the insurance company and the total of the adjusted prepaid insurance and
cash surrender value if life insurance is recorded as a gain on insurance settlement and is also taken in the profit
or loss section of (SCI).
