The forward rate generally differs from the spot rate, but as one moves closer
to the expiration date (or settlement date), the difference between the spot
rate and the forward rate for the remaining period of the contract becomes
smaller and smaller so that at the expiration date, the forward rate will have
converged with the spot rate.
Protecting against an adverse change in the exchange rate between the order date
(commitment date) and the transaction date is hedging a firm foreign-currency-
denominated commitment.

A premium exists on an foreign exchange forward when a party buys or sells forward
at more than the spot rate. A discount exists on an foreign exchange forward when
a party buys or sells forward at less than the spot rate.
For recording purposes, premiums or discounts have no bearing at all meaning there
is no need to set-up such account. However, for option contracts wherein the
writer assumes the responsibility of incurring a potential loss, the writer charges
a fee called a premium. Thus, the premium is the price paid to acquire the option.
The forward rate generally differs from the spot rate, but as one moves closer to
the expiration date (or settlement date), the difference between the spot rate
and the forward rate for the remaining period of the contract becomes smaller and
smaller so that at the expiration date, the forward rate will have converged with
the spot rate.
It should be noted that on the settlement date, the spot rate will be used since
the spot rate on that date is simply the same with the forward rate also on the
same date. .

The foreign currency is the functional currency, so a translation method or
closing rate method is appropriate. All assets are translated at the current
exchange rate of P430,000.

Because the peso is the functional currency, a remeasurement (temporal method)
is required. All receivables are remeasured at current rates. Assets carried at

A P10,000 bonus is paid to Costello (P100,000 is paid rather than the P90,000
capital balance). This bonus is deducted from the two remaining partners according
to their profit and loss ratio (2:3). A reduction of 60 percent (3/5) is assigned
to Burns or a decrease of P6,000 which drops that partner’s capital balance from
P30,000 to P24,000.

Craig receives an additional $10,000. Since Craig is assigned 20 percent of all
profits and losses, this allocation indicates total goodwill of P50,000.
20% of Goodwill = P10,000
.20 G = P10,000
G = P10,000/.20
G = P50,000
Montana is assigned 30% of all profits and losses and would, therefore, record
P15,000 of this goodwill, an entry that raises this partner's capital balance from
P130,000 to P145,000.

Consolidated financial statements should not include intercompany payables and
receivables. Therefore, the P260,000 receivable from Vick Corp. will be eliminated
during the consolidation procedures. The P75,000 advances to Hill is not a
subsidiary of Cobb. Ward Corp. is an unconsolidated subsidiary, and so the P200,000
receivable from Ward will also be included in Cobb’s balance sheet.

applied wherein goodwill or any fair value adjustments is considered as a non-
monetary asset carried at historical cost be remeasured (or translated) using
historical rate (which in this problem is 1.5 baht = P1). But the problem do not
fall under this category – the temporal method, instead it is a classical example
of a goodwill and fair value adjustments arising from acquisition of subsidiaries.
