Loan Receivable

LOAN RECEIVABLE
A loan receivable is a financial asset arising from a loan granted by a bank or other financial institution to a borrower or client.

INITIAL MEASUREMENT
At initial recognition, an entity shall measure a loan receivable at fair value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to
the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the loan include direct origination costs.

However, indirect origination costs should be treated as outright expense.

SUBSEQUENT MEASUREMENT
A loan receivable is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

ACCOUNTING FOR ORIGINATION FEES


The origination fees received from borrower are recognized as unearned interest income and amortized over the term of the loan. If
the origination fees are not chargeable against the borrower, the fees are known as “direct origination costs”. These are also deferred
and amortized over the term of the loan.
