IAS 12
Current Tax:
▪ Taxable income x Tax rate.
▪ Computed based on rules of IT 2001.
▪ Common add backs: Provisions, Accounting depreciation, Interest on lease liability etc.
▪ Common deductions: Write-offs, Tax depreciation, Lease payments etc.
▪ Brought forward tax losses are adjusted against income before computation of current tax.
▪ Tax credits are adjusted after computation of taxable income and tax liability.
Underlying reason:
▪ Double entry of deferred tax asset / liability is completed by recording the contra in the same place where the
underlying transaction responsible for creation / adjustment of that deferred tax balance is recorded.
Minimum taxes:
▪ For Companies in losses or having low taxable income, Minimum taxes are applicable @ 1% of Revenue or
17% of Accounting Profit.
▪ These minimum taxes are adjustable in the next following years; therefore DTA is recorded against them.
Tax losses:
▪ Unused business losses are adjustable in 6 years
▪ Unused depreciation losses are adjustable without limitation of time.
▪ Projection of taxable profits should be created after taking into account tax planning.
▪ Deferred tax should not be discounted.
4|Page
▪ The underlying transaction affects neither accounting profit nor tax profit at the time of the transaction
SIC 25:
▪ A change in the tax status of an entity may increase or decrease tax e.g. a change in status from small company
to normal company.
▪ The current and deferred tax consequences of a change in tax status are recorded in the year of change as a
change in accounting estimate.

IFRS 15
SCOPE
Applies to all contracts with customers, except:
• Lease contracts (refer to IFRS 16)
• Insurance contracts (refer to IFRS 4)
• Financial instruments and other contractual rights or obligations (refer to IFRS 9, IFRS 10, IFRS 11, IAS 27, and
IAS 28)
• Certain non-monetary exchanges
DEFINITIONS
Contract: An agreement between two or more parties that creates enforceable rights and obligations.
Customer: A party that has contracted with an entity to obtain goods or services that are an output of the entity’s
ordinary activities in exchange for consideration.
Income: Increases in economic benefits in the form of inflows or enhancements of assets or decreases of liabilities
that result in an increase in equity (other than those from equity participants).
Stand-alone selling price: The price at which a good or service would be sold separately to a customer.
If each party to the contract has a unilateral enforceable right to terminate a wholly unperformed contract without
compensating the other party (or parties), no contract exists under IFRS 15.
Page | 11
• The contracts are negotiated as a package with a single commercial objective
• The consideration for each contract is interdependent on the other, or
• The overall goods or services of the contracts represent a single performance obligation.
Contract modifications
A change in enforceable rights and obligations (i.e. scope and/or price) is only accounted for as a contract
modification if it has been approved, and creates new or changes existing enforceable rights and obligations.
Contract modifications are accounted for as a separate contract if, and only if:
• The contract scope changes due to the addition of distinct goods or services, and
• The change in contract price reflects standalone selling price of distinct good or service.
Contract modifications that are not accounted for as a separate contract are accounted for as either:
(i) Replacement of the original contract with a new contract (if the remaining goods or services under the original
contract are distinct from those already transferred to the customer)
(ii) Continuation of the original contract (if the remaining goods or services under the original contract are distinct
from those already transferred to the customer, and the performance obligation is partially satisfied at
modification date).
(iii) Mixture of (i) and (ii) (if elements of both exist).
Activities of the entity that do not result in a transfer of goods or services to the customer (e.g. certain internal
administrative ‘set-up activities’) are not performance obligations of the contract with the customer and do not
give rise to revenue.
(ii) The promise to transfer a good or service is separable from other promises in the contract. The assessment
requires judgment, and consideration of all relevant facts and circumstances. A good or service may not be
separable from other promised goods or services in the contract, if:
• There are significant integration services with other promised goods or services
• It modifies / customizes other promised goods or services
• It is highly dependent / interrelated with other promised goods or services.
Page | 12
STEP 3 – DETERMINE THE TRANSACTION PRICE
The transaction price is the amount of consideration an entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for transferring
the promised goods or services (not amounts collected on behalf of third parties, e.g. sales taxes or value added
taxes).
The transaction price may be affected by the nature, timing, and amount of consideration, and includes
consideration of significant financing components, variable components, amounts payable to the customer (e.g.
refunds and rebates), and non-cash amounts.
The transaction price is adjusted to reflect the cash selling price at the point in time control of the goods or services
is transferred.
A significant financing component can either be explicit or implicit. Factors to consider include:
• Difference between the consideration and cash selling price
• Combined effect of interest rates and length of time between transfer of control of the goods or services and
payment.
Page | 13
Accounting for consideration payable to the customer
Includes cash paid (or expected to be paid) to the customer (or the customer’s customers) as well as credits or
other items such as coupons and vouchers.
Accounted for as a reduction in the transaction price, unless payment is in exchange for a good or service received
from the customer in which case no adjustment is made – except where:
• The consideration paid exceeds the fair value of the goods or services received (the difference is set against
the transaction price)
• The fair value of the goods or services cannot be reliably determined (full amount taken against the
transaction price).
If the stand-alone selling price(s) are not observable, they are estimated. Approaches to estimate may include:
(i) Adjusted market assessment approach
(ii) Expected cost plus a margin approach
(iii) Residual approach (i.e. residual after observable stand-alone selling prices of other performance obligations
have been deducted). This approach is used if a certain criteria is met.
Allocating a ‘discount’
A discount exists where the sum of the stand-alone selling price of each performance obligation exceeds the
consideration payable.
Discounts are allocated on a proportionate basis, unless there is observable evidence that the discount relates to
one or more specific performance obligation(s) after meeting all of the following criteria:
• The goods or services (or bundle thereof) in the performance obligation are regularly sold on a stand-alone
basis, and at a discount
• The discount is substantially the same in amount to the discount that would be given on a stand-alone basis.
Page | 14
(i) Over time, or
(ii) At a point in time.
Satisfaction occurs when control of promised good or service is transferred to the customer:
• Ability to direct the use of the asset
• Ability to obtain substantially all the remaining benefits from the asset.
Revenue is recognised over time if any of following three criteria are met:
(a) Customer simultaneously receives and consumes all of the benefits e.g. many recurring service contracts (such
as cleaning services). If another entity would not need to substantially re-perform the work already performed by
the entity to satisfy the performance obligation, the customer is considered to be simultaneously receiving and
consuming benefits.
(b) The entity’s work creates or enhances an asset controlled by the customer. The asset being created or
enhanced (e.g. a work in progress asset) could be tangible or intangible.
(c) The entity’s performance does not create an asset with an alternative use to the entity, and the entity has an
enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date.
Alternate use
Assessment requires judgment and consideration of all facts and circumstances. An asset does not have an
alternate use if the entity cannot practically or contractually redirect the asset to another customer, such as:
• Significant economic loss, i.e. through rework, or reduced sale price (practical)
• Enforceable rights held by the customer to prohibit redirection of the asset (contractual).
Whether or not the asset is largely interchangeable with other assets produced by the entity should also be
considered in determining whether practical or contractual limitations occur.
Page | 15
Recognizing revenue at a point in time
Revenue is recognised at a point in time if the criteria for recognizing revenue over time are not met. Revenue is
recognised at the point in time at which the entity transfers control of the asset to the customer.
CONTRACT COSTS
Only incremental costs of obtaining a contract that are incremental and expected to be recovered can be
recognised as an asset.
If costs to fulfil a contract are within the scope of other IFRSs (e.g. IAS 2, IAS 16, IAS 38 etc.) apply those IFRSs. If
not, a contract asset is recognised under IFRS 15 if the costs:
• Are specifically identifiable and directly relate to the contract (e.g. direct labour, materials, overhead
allocations, explicitly on-charged costs, other unavoidable costs (e.g. sub-contractors)
• Create (or enhance) resources of the entity that will be used to satisfy performance obligation(s) in the future,
and
• Are expected to be recovered.
If the license is distinct from other goods or services it is accounted for as a single performance obligation.
Revenue from a distinct license is recognised over time (refer Step 5) if, and only if:
(a) The entity (is reasonably expected to) undertakes activities that will significantly affect the IP to which the
customer has rights
(b) The customer’s rights to the IP expose it to the positive/negative effects of the activities that the entity
undertakes in (a).
(c) No goods or services are transferred to customer as the entity undertakes the activities in (a).
Revenue from a distinct license is recognised at a point in time (refer to Step 5) if the criteria for recognition over
time (above) are not met. The right is over the IP in its form and functionality at the point at which the license is
granted to the customer. Revenue is recognised at the point in time at which control of the license is transferred
to the customer.

WARRANTIES (FALL INTO EITHER ONE OF THE TWO CATEGORIES)
(i) Assurance type (apply IAS 37):
• An assurance to the customer that the good or service will function as specified
• The customer cannot purchase this warranty separately from the entity.
(ii) Service type (accounted for separately in accordance with IFRS 15):
• A service is provided in addition to an assurance to the customer that the good or service will function as
specified
• This applies regardless of whether the customer is able to purchase this warranty separately from the entity.
Treatment dependents on whether the fee relates to the transfer of goods or services to the customer (i.e. a
performance obligation under the contract):
• If Yes: Recognise revenue in accordance with IFRS 15 (as or when goods or services transferred)
• If No: Treated as an advance payment for the performance obligations to be fulfilled. Revenue recognition
period may in some cases be longer than the contractual period if the customer has a right to, and is
reasonably expected to, extend/renew the contract.

Warranties:
On 1-January-2017, ABC Limited sold an equipment costing Rs 500 million for Rs 850 million received in cash at
the time of sale. The sale contract provides warranty coverage for a 3-year period allowing free of cost repair &
maintenance during the period of warranty. Similar equipment is generally sold in the market for Rs 800 million
together with a 1-year warranty by ABC and its competitors. ABC Limited expects to incur yearly costs of Rs 30
million for each year in relation to free of cost repair & maintenance under warranty. If not provided with the
equipment, annual repair & maintenance contracts are usually sold at Rs 40 million yearly price. ABC’s cost of
capital is 10%.
Required: Provide journal entries for the years 2017 to 2019 assuming that yearly actual costs incurred for the
services amounted to Rs 28 million, Rs 26 million and Rs 29 million respectively.
The scheme continued till year end i.e. 30-Sep-2013 and was discontinued from 1 October 2013. During the period
covered by the scheme, the customers were granted 1.5 million points out of which 0.5 million points were
redeemed till year end. It was initially expected that 30% of the points granted would lapse unutilized, however,
actual results showed that finally 470,000 points lapsed unutilized. ABC sells goods at a margin of 40%. No entries
in respect of grant of points have been recorded so far.
Required: Prepare accounting entries to record the above transactions in accordance with IFRS 15.
Case A—Additional products for a price that reflects the stand-alone selling price
When the contract is modified, the price of the contract modification for the additional 30 products is an additional
CU2,850 or CU95 per product. The pricing for the additional products reflects the stand-alone selling price of the
products at the time of the contract modification and the additional products are distinct from the original
products.
Case B—Additional products for a price that does not reflect the stand-alone selling price
During the process of negotiating the purchase of an additional 30 products, the parties initially agree on a price
of Rs 80 per product. However, the customer discovers that the initial 60 products transferred to the customer
contained minor defects that were unique to those delivered products. The entity promises a partial credit of Rs
15 per product to compensate the customer for the poor quality of those products. The entity and the customer
agree to incorporate the credit of Rs 900 (Rs 15 credit × 60 products) into the price that the entity charges for the
additional 30 products. Consequently, the contract modification specifies that the price of the additional 30
products is Rs 1,500 or Rs 50 per product. That price comprises the agreed-upon price for the additional 30
products of Rs 2,400, or Rs 80 per product, less the credit of Rs 900.

Required: Compute the revenue to be recorded and provide journal in respect of the above.
On 30 November 2017, the scope of the contract is modified to include Product Z (in addition to the undelivered
Product Y) on 30 June 2018 and the price of the contract is increased by Rs 300 (fixed consideration), which does
not represent the stand-alone selling price of Product Z. The stand-alone selling price of Product Z is the same as
the stand-alone selling prices of Products X and Y.
After the modification but before the delivery of Products Y and Z, on 31-Dec-2017, the entity also revises its
estimate of the amount of variable consideration to which it expects to be entitled to Rs 240 (rather than the
previous estimate of Rs 200). Product Y is transferred to the customer on 31 March 2018, and Product Z is
transferred to the customer on 30 June 2018.
Required: Compute the revenue to be recorded and provide journal in respect of the above.
An entity enters into a three-year contract to clean a customer’s offices on a weekly basis. The customer promises
to pay Rs 100,000 per year. The stand-alone selling price of the services at contract inception is Rs 100,000 per
year. At the end of the second year, the contract is modified and the fee for the third year is reduced to Rs 80,000.
In addition, the customer agrees to extend the contract for three additional years for consideration of Rs 200,000
payable in three equal annual instalments of Rs 66,667 at the beginning of years 4, 5 and 6. The stand-alone selling
price of the services at the beginning of the third year is Rs 80,000 per year.
Required: Compute the revenue to be recorded and provide journal in respect of the above.
By the end of the first year, the costs incurred to date are Rs 420,000 and total expected costs of Rs 700,000.
In the first quarter of the second year, the parties to the contract agree to modify the contract by changing the
floor plan of the building. As a result, the fixed consideration and expected costs increase by Rs 150,000 and Rs
120,000, respectively. In addition, the allowable time for achieving the CU200,000 bonuses is extended by 6
months to 30 months from the original contract inception date. At the date of the modification, the entity expects
that it is highly probable to obtain the bonus in revised circumstances.

Standard IE 44—Warranties
An entity, a manufacturer, provides its customer with a warranty with the purchase of a product. The warranty
provides assurance that the product complies with agreed-upon specifications and will operate as promised for
one year from the date of purchase. The contract also provides the customer with the right to receive up to 20
hours of training services on how to operate the product at no additional cost. The customer can benefit from the
product on its own without the training services. The entity regularly sells the product separately without the
training services.
Required: Compute the revenue to be recorded and provide journal in respect of the above.

Case A: In this case, no other entity can manufacture this drug because of the highly specialized nature of the
manufacturing process. As a result, the license cannot be purchased separately from the manufacturing services.
Case B: In this case, the manufacturing process used to produce the drug is not unique or specialized and several
other entities can also manufacture the drug for the customer.
Required: Compute the revenue to be recorded and provide journal in respect of the above.

Standard IE 58—Access to intellectual property
An entity, a creator of comic strips, licenses the use of the images and names of its comic strip characters in three
of its comic strips to a customer for a four-year term. There are main characters involved in each of the comic
strips. However, newly created characters appear regularly and the images of the characters evolve over time.
The customer, an operator of cruise ships, can use the entity’s characters in various ways, such as in shows or
parades, within reasonable guidelines. The contract requires the customer to use the latest images of the
characters. In exchange for granting the license, the entity receives a fixed payment of CU1 million in each year of
the four-year term.

No time bands are suggested under IFRS 7 you can choose your own. (See details below)
Per IFRS 7, an entity uses its judgement to determine an appropriate number of time bands for presentation of
maturity analysis. For example:
(a) not later than one month
(b) later than one month and not later than three months
(c) later than three months and not later than one year
(d) later than one year and not later than five years.
The contractual amounts disclosed in the maturity analyses as required by are the contractual undiscounted cash

• If land and building are inseparable the whole lease would be classified as finance lease if the lease of building
is finance
• If the lease of building is finance but land is operating, the PV of LP would be separated on the basis of FV of
building versus FV of leasehold interest in land
Review of UGRV
If there is a reduction in the estimated UGRV, the lessor shall revise the income allocation over the lease term and
recognise immediately any reduction in respect of amounts accrued.
This means that the revised lease payments with changed UGRV are discounted at original discount rate and
increase or decrease is recognized in P&L.
You can use revised effective interest rate instead of original effective
interest only when:
a) Transaction costs occur after initial recognition
b) There is floating rate and the rate changes
c) Where the financial asset is a hedged item and the hedging gain or
loss adjusts its carrying amount.

Cr. Rental income
Add initial direct costs incurred to the asset and depreciate over lease term.

Modification to an operating lease is accounted for as a new lease from the effective date of the modification.
Any prepaid or accrued lease payments relating to the original lease is considered part of the lease payments for
the new lease.
LESSOR DISCLOSURES
Finance leases (in tabular format):
• Selling profit or loss
• Finance income on the net investment in the lease
• Income relating to variable lease payments not included in lease receivable
• Explanation of significant changes in the carrying amount of the lease receivable
• Maturity analysis of the undiscounted lease payments receivable. Show amounts on an annual basis for first
five years and a single total for the remaining years. Reconcile the undiscounted lease payments to the
discounted lease receivable balances and identify the reconciling items: (a) UFI (b) UGRV.
Operating leases:
• Lease income. Show separately, the income relating to variable lease payments that do not depend on an
index or a rate
• In IAS 16 disclosures, assets given an operating lease are separated from assets held for own use.
• Maturity analysis of the undiscounted lease payments receivable. Show amounts on an annual basis for first
five years and a single total for the remaining years.
Page | 30
Transfer of the asset is not a sale
• Asset remains in the books of seller-lessee and it recognises a financial liability for the amount received under
IFRS 9.
• Buyer-lessor recognises a financial asset equal to the transfer proceeds under IFRS 9.
If the lessee controls (or obtains control of) the underlying asset before that asset is transferred to the lessor, the
transaction is a sale and leaseback transaction
SUB-LEASE CLASSIFICATION
An intermediate lessor shall classify the sublease as follows:
(a) if the head lease is a short-term lease, the sublease shall be classified as an operating lease.
(b) otherwise, the sublease shall be classified by reference to the right-of-use asset arising from the head lease,
rather than by reference to the underlying asset.

• Interest rate implicit in lease: 10.5% p.a.
Required: Prepare Journal entries for recording in the books of ABC Limited.
To obtain the lease, ABC incurs initial direct costs of Rs 20,000 of which Rs 15,000 relates to a payment to a former
tenant occupying that floor of the building and Rs 5,000 relates to a commission paid to the real estate agent that
arranged the lease. As an incentive to ABC for entering into the lease, the Lessor agrees to reimburse to ABC the
real estate commission of Rs 5,000 and ABC’s leasehold improvements of Rs 7,000.
At the commencement date, ABC is not certain to exercise the option to extend the lease and its incremental
borrowing rate is 5% p.a.
In the 2nd year of the lease, ABC acquires Entity A. Following the acquisition of Entity A, ABC now needs two floors
in a building for the increased workforce. Consequently, at the end of Year 2, ABC is now reasonably certain to
exercise the option to extend its original lease. ABC’s incremental borrowing rate at the end of Year 2 is 6% p.a.

ABC’s incremental borrowing rate at the beginning of Year 2 is 7% p.a.
The fair value of the building at the date of sale is Rs 1,800,000 and the interest rate implicit in the lease is 4.5%.
Required: Prepare Journal entries for Year 1 in the books of A limited and B limited, assuming that:
a) The term of lease is 18 years
b) The term of lease is 31 years
Example 9 – W 2016 Q3
On 1 July 2014 Track Limited (TL) sold its property to Strong Bank Limited (SBL) for Rs. 600 million. The net carrying
amount and market value of the property on 1 July 2014 were Rs. 240 million and Rs. 800 million respectively. The
remaining useful economic life of the property was 15 years. Under the terms of agreement, TL continues to
occupy the property and is also responsible for its maintenance. As consideration of occupation rights, TL pays
rent of Rs. 90 million per annum, payable in arrears.
TL has the option to repurchase the property on 30 June 2016 at Rs. 550 million. TL charges depreciation on
straight-line basis. TL’s cost of equity is 10% whereas incremental borrowing rate is 11.052% per annum.
Applicable income tax rate is 30%.
Required:
(a) Prepare accounting entries to record the above transaction for the year ended 30 June 2015 and give brief
explanation of the accounting treatment worked out by you with reference to the relevant International Financial
Reporting Standards. (11)
(b) Prepare accounting entries to record the transactions for the year ended 30 June 2016 if TL does not exercise

Example 10 – Lessor Accounting – Change from Finance lease to Operating lease
Aay Limited leased an asset for 8 years to Bee Limited. The useful life of the asset is also 8 years and annual lease
payments are Rs 100,000 payable at the end of each year. Interest rate implicit in the lease is 5% p.a. At the
beginning of Year 2, Aay Limited and the lessee agreed to amend the original lease by reducing the total
contractual lease term to only 3 years. The annual lease payments are unchanged (Rs 100,000 payable annually
in arrears).
Example 12: Lessor Accounting - Modification to Operating lease without changing lease type
Aay Limited leased an asset for 3 years to Bee Limited. The useful life of the asset is 10 years and annual lease
payments are Rs 60,000, Rs 70,000 and Rs 80,000 respectively payable at the end of each year. At the beginning
of Year 2, Aay Limited and the lessee agreed to amend the original lease by increasing the total contractual lease
term to 4 years. The remaining annual lease payments are fixed at Rs 75,000 per annum.
Example 13: Lessor Accounting - Modification to finance lease without changing lease type
Aay Limited leased an asset for 8 years to Bee Limited. The useful life of the asset is also 8 years and annual lease
payments are Rs 100,000 payable at the end of each year. Interest rate implicit in the lease is 5% p.a. At the
beginning of Year 2, Aay Limited and the lessee agreed to change the lease payments to Rs 105,000 per annum
for the remaining years (payable annually in arrears).
Required: Provide Journals for Years 1 to 2 for both the lessor and the lessee in accordance with IFRS 16.

Example 15: Whether an arrangement contains a lease?
a) B limited obtains the economic benefits of the plant and directs how the plant will be used during the term
of 5 years.
b) B limited does not enjoy substantial economic benefits from the plant during the term of 5 years since A
limited also uses the same plant to make its own production for selling to other customers.
c) B limited enjoys the substantial economic benefits from the plant. However, it can only make production
from the plant as per the instruction given by A. That is the nature and extent of production is decided by A
limited and B limited has no contractual jurisdiction in this regard.
d) B limited enjoys the substantial economic benefits from the plant. The plant was designed in a way that it
can produce only Chemical X in fixed batches of 5000 gallons. Therefore, neither A nor B can direct what to
produce using the plant.

IFRS 13
Objective
• Defines FV and sets out a framework for measuring FV
• Prescribes disclosures about FV measurements
• Applies when another IFRS requires or permits FV measurements or disclosures
• Does not apply to share-based payments (IFRS 2), leases (IFRS 16), inventories (IAS 2) and value in use (IAS 36)
Important definitions
Fair value: The price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction
between market participants at the measurement date
Active market: A market in which transactions for the asset or liability take place with sufficient frequency and
volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis
Exit price: The price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability
Highest and best use: The use of a non-financial asset by market participants that would maximize the value of
the asset or the group of assets and liabilities (e.g. a business) within which the asset would be used
Most advantageous market: The market that maximizes the amount that would be received to sell the asset or
minimizes the amount that would be paid to transfer the liability, after taking into account transaction costs and
transport costs
Principal market: The market with the greatest volume and level of activity for the asset or liability
FV hierarchy
The FV hierarchy categorizes the inputs used in valuation techniques into three levels. If the inputs used to
measure FV belong to different levels of the FV hierarchy, the FV measurement is categorized in its entirety in the
level of the lowest level significant input.
Level 1 inputs
• Level 1 inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical asset or liability. It is the preferred
FV choice with limited exceptions.
• If an entity holds an asset or liability that is traded in an active market, its FV is measured at Level 1 even if
the market's normal trading volume is not sufficient to absorb the quantity held and placing orders to sell the
asset or liability in a single transaction might affect the quoted price.
Level 2 inputs
Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted market prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either
directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include:
a) quoted prices for identical or similar asset or liability in markets that are not active
b) inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, for example interest rates and yield curves observable
at commonly quoted intervals
c) inputs that are derived from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (called
market-corroborated inputs)
Page | 36
Level 3 inputs
Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs are used to measure FV if
relevant observable inputs are not available. This is therefore applicable for situations in which there is little
market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date.
FV measurement approach
• Objective is to estimate the price at which an orderly transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability would
take place between market participants under current market conditions.
• A FV measurement requires an entity to determine all of the following:
a) the particular asset or liability that is the subject of the measurement (the unit of account)
b) for a non-financial asset, the valuation premise that is appropriate for the measurement (consistently with
its highest and best use)
c) the principal (or most advantageous) market for the asset or liability
d) the appropriate valuation technique considering availability of data
e) the level of the FV hierarchy within which the inputs are categorized
• Take into account those characteristics of the asset or liability that a market participant would take into
account when pricing the asset or liability at measurement date (e.g. the condition and location of the asset
and any restrictions on the sale and use of the asset)
• FV measurement assumes a transaction taking place in the principal market, or in the absence of a principal
market, the most advantageous market for the asset or liability
• FV measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account its highest and best use
• FV measurement of a financial or non-financial liability or own equity instruments assumes transfer to a
market participant without settlement, extinguishment, or cancellation at the measurement date
• The FV of a liability reflects non-performance risk (the risk the entity will not fulfil the obligation) and the
entity's own credit risk
Valuation techniques
• Use appropriate valuation techniques for which sufficient data are available, maximizing the use of observable
inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs
• Objective of using a valuation technique is to estimate the price at which an orderly transaction would take
place between market participants under current market conditions.
• Three widely used valuation techniques are:
a) Market approach: Uses prices and other information generated by market transactions involving identical
or comparable assets / liabilities
b) Cost approach: Reflects the amount that would be required currently to replace the service capacity of an
asset (current replacement cost)
c) Income approach: Converts future amounts (cash flows or income and expenses) to a single current
(discounted) amount, reflecting current market expectations about those future amounts.
• In some cases, a single valuation technique will be appropriate, whereas in others multiple valuation
techniques will be appropriate.
Disclosure
Disclosure objective
Disclose information that helps users of its financial statements assess both of the following:
Page | 37
a) for assets and liabilities that are measured at FV after initial recognition, the valuation techniques and inputs
used to develop those FVs
b) For FV measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), the effect of the measurements on profit
or loss or other comprehensive income for the period.
Disclosure exemptions
The disclosure requirements are not required for:
a) plan assets measured at FV under IAS 19
b) retirement benefit plan investments measured at FV under IAS 26
c) assets for which recoverable amount is FV less costs to sell under IAS 36
Page | 38
o for financial assets and financial liabilities, if changing one or more of the unobservable inputs to reflect
reasonably possible alternative assumptions would change FV significantly, state that fact and disclose
the effect of those changes.
i) if the highest and best use of a non-financial asset differs from its current use, disclose the fact and why the
non-financial asset is being used in a different manner
Quantitative disclosures are required to be presented in a tabular format unless another format is more
appropriate

Financial instruments
Basic concepts
Financial instrument: Any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity
instrument of another entity.
Equity instrument: A residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities.
Example
Which of the following is a financial instrument?
(a) Intangible assets (b) Investment in subsidiary
(c) Inventory (d) Trade receivables
(e) Income tax payable (f) Deferred revenue
(g) Prepaid expenses (h) Provision for constructive obligation
Page | 47
Trade receivables are recognized at transaction price unless there is a significant financing component.
Lease receivables are subject to life time credit losses and not subject to stages of impairment.
Reversal of impairment: Measure the loss allowance at 12-month expected credit losses.
Recognition: Impairment loss or reversal is recorded in P&L
Approach: Use either the ECL or the PV approach
Required: Discuss, with relevant computations, how the above financial instruments should be accounted for in
the financial statements for the year ended 31 May 2019.
Example
ABC Limited purchased a 1 million bond for Rs 1000 each (Par value). The bond was not determined as credit
impaired at initial recognition. It is redeemable after 5 years at Rs 1030 and bears interest @ 10%. Effective
interest rate is 10.5%. The company is holding the bond to collect contractual cashflows but may sell it if the return
on sale is very high. The fair value of the bond at end of year 1 was Rs 1100. During year 2, the credit risk of the
bond increased significantly and consequently cumulative life time expected credit losses of Rs 100 and Rs 200
per bond were anticipated at the end of Year 2 and 3 respectively. The fair value of the bond at the end of Year 2
and 3 was Rs 950 and Rs 900 per bond respectively. The company sold the bond at the end of Year 3 for Rs 910
per bond incurring a transaction cost Rs 5 per bond. Prepare journals for Years 1 to 4.

Transaction costs
Transaction costs (e.g. issue costs) of an equity transaction shall be debited to equity
1. A puttable instrument (e.g. redeemable pref. shares) is classified as equity if it has all the following features:
(a) It entitles the holder to a pro rata share of net assets upon liquidation
(b) It has no priority over other claims on liquidation
(c) Its expected cash flows are based substantially on profit or loss
2. If you can avoid a transfer of cash only by giving a non-financial asset, it is a financial liability
3. A financial instrument that requires delivery of cash on the occurrence of uncertain future events is a financial
liability
Reclassifications
• FL to Equity: Fair value of FL at reclassification becomes carrying amount of equity
• Equity to FL: FL is recognised at fair value. The adjustment is recognised in retained earnings.

Embedded Derivatives
Example
Aay Limited issued 1 million TFCs at Rs 100 per TFC. These TFCs have a coupon rate of 10% and are accounted for
as Financial liability at amortized cost. Show journals for initial recognition of the TFCs if:
a) The TFCs have an inflation linkage feature. This means that if the avergae general rate of inflation in the
economony is more than 10% per annum in any year, the coupon rate of the TFCs would be increased to 12%
in that year to compensate the holders for high inflation. Similar TFCs without the inflation linkage feature
have a fair value of Rs 97 per TFC.
b) The TFCs have an equity indexing feature. This means that if the avergae market value of shares of Aay Limited
falls below Rs 100 per share in any year, the coupon rate of the TFCs would be increased to 12% in that year
to compensate the holders for higher financial gearing risk. Similar TFCs without the equity indexing feature
have a fair value of Rs 98 per TFC.
Example – Basic
The following information pertains to Crow Textile Mills Limited (CTML) for the year ended 30 June 2012:
On 1 July 2011, 2 million convertible debentures of Rs. 100 each were issued. Each debenture is convertible into
25 ordinary shares of Rs. 10 each on 30 June 2014. Interest is payable annually in arrears @ 8% per annum. On
the date of issue, market interest rate for similar debt without conversion option was 11% per annum. However,
on account of expenditure of Rs. 4 million, incurred on issuance of shares, the effective interest rate increased to
11.81%. (08)
Required: Prepare Journal entries for the year ended 30 June 2012 to record the above transactions.
Page | 52
• Coupon rate of the TFCs is 8%. Coupon rate on similar non-convertible TFC is 12%.
• These TFCs have a term of 3 years. After that period, they can either be converted at a ratio of 4 ordinary
shares for each TFC or redeemed at Rs 105 per TFC.
Show accounting entries for the year 2018, in each of the independent scenarios below, assuming that, on 31
December 2018:
a) ABC allowed the TFC holders to early convert the TFCs at the originally agreed ratio and all TFCs were
converted into ordinary shares at that date. Transaction costs of Rs 10 million were incurred on the
conversion.
b) ABC repurchased the bonds at Rs 110 per bond and all holders sold back their bonds at that rate. Transaction
costs of Rs 20 million were incurred for the repurchase.
c) ABC induced early conversion of the bonds by allowing the holders to convert the bonds at the ratio of 5
ordinary shares for each bond. All bonds were converted into ordinary shares at that date. Transaction costs
of Rs 15 million were incurred on the conversion.
Required:
Prepare accounting entries to record the above transactions on the relevant dates in accordance with
International Financial Reporting Standards, using: (a) Trade date accounting (b) Settlement date accounting (16

Hedging
What is a hedge?
Page | 53
Taking a position in a FI that would counter any change in:
• FV (FV hedge e.g. of a fixed rate investment)
• Cash flows (CF hedge e.g. for repayment of a forex loan)
Other points
• Hedge becomes ineffective: Balance in OCI is eliminated through basis / reclassification adjustment when the
transaction occurs.
• Forecast transaction no longer expected to occur: Balance in OCI recognized in profit or loss.
• Hedge of a Net investment in Foreign Operation: Treated in the same manner as cash flow hedge. With the
difference only that a reclassification adjustment is applied on disposal of the Investment.
• Hedge of an FVTOCI Investment or Any Other Asset whose gain / loss is recorded in OCI:
o It’s usually a fair value hedge
o Nevertheless, in case of FV or Cashflow hedge, since the gain / loss on hedged item goes to OCI, the
gain / loss on the hedging instrument is also presented in OCI.
• Derivative asset / liability: ‘Derivative value at purchase date’ minus ‘Value at which derivative can be bought
today’
• Date of remeasurement (a) each year end (b) date of change of estimate (c) date of settlement
Example 1
ABC limited entered into an agreement with a US vendor to import machinery on January 1 for USD 1 million when
the exchange rate was Rs 170 per USD. To hedge the related foreign exchange risk, ABC also entered into a 3
months forward exchange contract on the same day. The machinery arrived CIF in Pakistan on February 28 and
the payment was made on March 31. Relevant exchange rates are as follows:
Date Spot rate Forward rate
Jan 1 Rs 170 Rs 168
Feb 28 Rs 175 Rs 174
Mar 31 Rs 180 Rs 180
Required: Journalise the above assuming that the OCI is treated using Basis adjustment
Example 2
On March 1 Bee limited committed to import machinery from England for £ 1 million. It entered into a 5 months
forward exchange contract on the same day. Machine was imported and payment was made at July 31. The useful
life of the machine is 3 years. Relevant exchange rates are as follows:
Spot Forward
1 March Rs 225 Rs 231
30 June (Year end) Rs 229 Rs 236
31 July Rs 240 Rs 240

Example: LEL operates an approved pension scheme (defined benefit plan) for all its permanent employees who
have completed one year’s service. The details for the year ended 30 June 2012 relating to the pension scheme
are as follows:
During the year, LEL had amended the scheme whereby the employees’ pension entitlement had been increased.
According to actuarial valuation the present value of the cost of additional benefits was Rs. 15 million. The
discount rate is 13%.
Required:
Prepare the relevant extracts from the statement of financial position and the related notes to the financial
statements for the year ended 30 June 2012, assuming that:
a) There were no changes to the plan (except for those mentioned above) as of 30 June 2012.
b) As of 30 June 2012, as a result of a golden handshake severance scheme, the number of employees covered
by the plan has been reduced by 50% and accordingly the revised present value of pension scheme obligation
was computed as Rs 60 million. Since the employees were entitled to pension, the severance payments had
to be increased by Rs 55 million on account of this entitlement. However, these payments were not made out
of pension scheme assets.
c) Same scenario as (b) above. In addition, the local law does not allow LEL to reduce contribution to the fund or
to obtain any refund out of the fund due to surplus assets.
d) As of 30 June 2012, LEL agreed with all members of the fund to discontinue the pension scheme plan. In
consideration for their agreement, LEL paid an amount of Rs 100 million to the fund members. All pension
scheme assets were liquidated for the payment and the remainder amount was paid out of cash available
with LEL.

and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee.
• An investor is exposed to variable returns when its returns vary as a result of the investee’s performance.
• An investor has power over an investee when
✓ it has the ability to direct the activities that significantly affect the investee’s returns; and
✓ it has the ability to use its power to affect the investor’s returns from such direction.
• Franchise arrangements generally do not give the franchisor control over franchisee.
• Potential voting rights (e.g. derivatives) should also be considered in assessing control.
• Post acquisition changes in equity shall be allocated to the parent and NCI in ratio of existing ownership.

Cost of investment:
• If the payment of cash is deferred, take PV.
• If there is a share to share exchange, take market value of shares given.
Dividend by subsidiary: Dividend payable by a subsidiary is payable to both parent and NCI. The dividend
receivable appearing parent’s SFS is only its share. Thus, in consolidated FS dividend payable = dividend payable
by Parent + dividend payable by subsidiary to NCI.
Profit attributable to non-controlling interests: Adjusted profits of subsidiary x % not owned by parent.
Adjustments:
Page | 69
Intra-group sale of inventory: Eliminate unrealised profits on unsold stocks.
• If the seller is parent: Dr. Parent’s profits and Cr. Inventory
• If the seller is subsidiary: Dr. Subsidiary’s profits and Cr. Inventory
NRV adjustment of inventory: If the inventory sold intra-group has been written down to NRV, this write down
may be artificial since cost of inventory is already overvalued. Therefore, reverse the NRV adjustment and then
proceed to eliminate unrealised profit on unsold stocks.
Intra-group sale of PPE @ loss: If the loss is indicative of impairment, no adjustment is required. If loss is not
indicative of impairment, reverse the loss on sale of PPE.
• If the seller is parent: Dr. PPE and Cr. Parent’s profit.
• If the seller is subsidiary: Dr. PPE and Cr. Subsidiary’s profit
• Charge reduced depreciation to buyer’s profits.
Additional depreciation for FV adjustments: If the FV of assets acquired is more than their carrying amount to the
subsidiary, additional depreciation for this extra amount is charged in consolidated financial statements in
subsidiary’s profits. Dr. Subsidiary’s profits and Cr. PPE.
Deferred tax affects: Any change to CA amount of asset will give rise to DT. The DT exp/income is recognised in
books of seller and the asset/liability is recorded in books of buyer.

Disposal of interest
With loss of control:
1. E.g. before disposal of interest, parent held 60% and after disposal it holds 40%.
2. Remeasure retained interest at FV
3. Reverse any gain on disposal recorded in separate FS
4. Calculate gain / (loss) on disposal for consolidated FS as follows:
FV of consideration received (May be zero for deemed disposal) xxx
FV of investment retained xxx

In addition, OCI Reserves relating to Subsidiary (Attributable to Parent’s Share) appearing in the Consolidated
Statement of Financial Position are reclassified to Retained earnings upon disposal. Only Exchange Translation
OCI reserve and Cash Flow Hedge OCI reserve are reclassified to P&L.
Deemed disposal
It occurs when a Subsidiary issues further shares to parties other than the parent. The interest of parent is
diluted and hence control is lost without receipt of any consideration. Account for as above.
Joint arrangements
A joint arrangement is an arrangement in which two or more parties have joint control. It is of two types:
• Joint operation: parties have rights to the assets, and obligations for liabilities. Parties are “joint operators”.
• Joint venture: parties have rights to the net assets of the arrangement. Parties are “joint venturers”.
Page | 72
Classifying the arrangement
Whether the arrangement is a joint operation or a joint venture depends on its structure:
• If it is not structured through a separate vehicle (i.e. a separately incorporated entity), it is a joint operation.
• If the assets and liabilities are held in a separate vehicle, it can be either a joint venture or a joint operation.
(b) The parties are liable for claims raised (b) The creditors of the joint arrangement do
by third parties. not have rights of recourse against any party.
Revenues, The allocation of revenues and expenses The party’s share in the profit or loss is based
expenses, profit or between parties is based on a specified on activities of the arrangement.
loss proportion.
Guarantees The parties may be required to provide guarantees on behalf of a joint arrangement. The
provision of such guarantees does not constitute the arrangement as a joint operation.
Vertical Groups
• In this arrangement the Parent (P) holds control over a subsidiary (S) and the subsidiary in turn has control
over another entity (Sub-subsidiary – SS).
• Assess control by actual %. E.g. if P controls 60% of S and S controls 70% of SS, P actually controls 70% of SS.
• For calculation of goodwill, consolidated retained earnings and non-controlling interests, check effective %.
In above case the effective holding of P in SS is 42% (70% x 60%).
• Cost of investment in SS is taken as % of investment in S. The remaining cost of investment is reduced from
NCI.
• Dividend is eliminated on actual %.
• Goodwill and Gain on bargain purchase on two companies is not offset
Example
Page | 73
P holds 80% in S which holds 60% in SS. Cost of investment of P in S is Rs 100,000 and of S in SS is Rs 50,000.
Dividend payable by SS is Rs 1000. Show amounts to be reflected in consolidated FS.
• Goodwill for SS is calculated as follows:
Cost of investment in SS (investment of S in SS x % of P in S) xxx
FV of net asset (xxx)
Non-controlling interest (at fair value or effective % of net assets) xxx
Goodwill xxx
Triangular groups
• In this arrangement, P holds control over S and the S has some investment in another entity (Sub-subsidiary
– SS). P also has some investment in it and in total, controls SS. E.g. P holds 60% in S. S holds 25% in SS. P
holds 40% in SS.
• Assess control by actual % i.e. add the % ownership of P and S in SS. Thus P has actual % in SS of 65% (25% +
40%).
• For calculation of goodwill, consolidated retained earnings and non-controlling interests, check effective %.
In above case the effective holding of P in SS is 55%. [40% + (25% x 60%)].
• Cost of investment is taken at total. Add cost of investment of P in SS and S in SS (taken as % of investment
in S). The remaining cost of investment is reduced from NCI.
• Dividend is eliminated on actual %.
• Goodwill for SS is calculated as follows:
Investment in SS – Direct xxx
Investment in SS - Indirect (Investment of S in SS x % of P in S) xxx
NCI (at fair value or effective % of net assets) xxx
FV of net assets (xxx)

Goodwill
• It is treated as subsidiary’s asset and is re-measured at CR each year.
• The difference is routed through OCI and is added to translation reserve
• The amount is attributed to NCI only if NCI is initially recognised at FV.
• The amount attributed is determined on basis of profit sharing %.
• If GW is subsequently impaired the effect of impairment does not affect translation reserve.
Example: Consideration paid for acquisition of 80% interest is $ 980. FV of net assets is $ 1000. Exchange rate at
acquisition was Rs.90/$1 and at year end is Rs.100/$1. Calculate initial GW and GW at year end assuming:
(a) NCI is at FV and its FV is 220 (b) NCI is measured on proportionate basis.
Intra-group monetary asset/liability: Cannot be eliminated against the corresponding intragroup liability (or
asset) without showing the results of currency fluctuations in the consolidated financial statements.

IFRS 3
Scope exclusion
• Joint ventures
• BC where before and after the BC the controlling parties remain the same
Identifying a BC
➢ The assets acquired should constitute a business. The business should have inputs and processes. Outputs
are not necessary.
➢ Control over the business should be acquired through voting rights or potential voting rights.
Tax balances and Defined benefit plan balances: Their FV is not relevant and carrying amount per IAS 12 / 19 is
brought into Consolidated financial statements.
Indemnification asset: It is recognised on the same time and measured on the same basis as indemnified item.
For example, the acquiree agrees with the acquirer that an investment (at fair value through profit & loss) sold
as part of BC will have a market value of atleast Rs. 100,000. In case, it is realised at below Rs 100,000, the
acquiree will make good the difference. Thus the acquiree is indemnifying the acquirer. This right to be
indemnified is indemnification asset and the investment is the indemnified item. The indemnification asset is
measured in the same way as indemnified item i.e. at FVTPL.
Leases in which acquiree is a lessee: The acquirer is not required to recognise ROU assets and lease liabilities for
leases for which the lease term ends within 12 months of the acquisition date, or, if the underlying asset is of
low value. The acquirer shall measure the lease liability at the PV of remaining lease payments as if the acquired
lease were a new lease at the acquisition date using fair value rentals. The differential adjustment would be
recorded as fair value adjustment in goodwill.
Settlement of Pre-existing relationship (PER): PER is for example the acquirer granted a license to acquiree
before BC. The license was favourable or unfavourable to acquirer as compared to market terms. Under the BC
the license comes back to acquirer and the PER is settled. Thus at BC a gain/loss is recognised. The gain/loss is
recognised at lower of:
➢ Difference b/w terms of contract and market terms
➢ Repudiation penalty in contract
Contingent consideration in a BC
Consideration that is contingent on some uncertain event is recognised at its acquisition date FV as:
(i) Asset: if acquirer has right to receive back some consideration
(ii) Liability: if cash, any financial asset or variable number of equity instruments are to be delivered
Page | 77
(iii) Equity: if fixed number of acquirer’s own equity instruments are to be delivered
Subsequent adjustments to contingent consideration

Investment property
Investment property means land or building held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation. Examples include:
• building that is vacant but is held to be leased out under one or more operating leases.
• property that is being constructed or developed for future use as investment property.
Owner-occupied property
Property held for use in the production of goods or services or for administrative purposes. Examples include:
• property intended for sale in the ordinary course of business (Apply IAS 2)
• property occupied by employees (Apply IAS 16)
• property that is leased to another entity under a finance lease (Apply IFRS 16)
Example 1
AL leased a hotel building to BL on operating lease. Determine whether AL should classify the building as
investment property assuming:
(a) AL provides security services for the building to BL (b) AL provided hotel management services to BL
Accounting
Measure initially at purchase price or construction cost, plus transaction costs. Account for subsequently under:
Cost model Fair value model
a) If you choose the cost model, apply it to all IPs. a) If you choose fair value model, apply it to all IPs
b) Apply requirement of IAS 16 for cost model b) Recognise FV gain/loss in P&L
c) If you choose this model, but FV of any one or
more IP is not reliably measurable, measure that IP
using the cost model in IAS 16.
d) Fair value:
➢ includes value of lifts or air-conditioning etc. that
is an integral part of a building
➢ includes value of furniture for furnished buildings
➢ excludes prepaid or accrued operating lease

IFRIC 17
Measurement of a dividend payable: Measure the liability at the FV of the assets to be distributed.
Example:
On 1 December 2018, ABC Limited marked 100 vehicles as held for distribution to its 100 shareholders. These
vehicles would be given to the shareholders in lieu of cash dividend. Dividend was declared and vehicles were
handed over to the shareholder on 1-Feb-2019. The book value of each vehicle on 1-Dec-18 was Rs 700,000
(Cost less Depreciation).
Required: Prepare journal entries for the year 2018 & 2019, assuming that the fair value of each vehicle was:
Date 1-Dec-18 31-Dec-18 1-Feb-19
Fair value 680,000 750,000 720,000
Cost to distribute 5,000 10,000 10,000

IAS 36
Scope
1. Does not apply to:
(a) inventories (b) construction contracts (c) deferred tax assets
(d) employee benefits s (e) financial assets (f) investment property measured at FV
(g) biological assets (h) non-current assets held for sale
2. Applies to:
(a) subsidiaries (b) associates (c) joint arrangement.
Indicators of Impairment
External sources of information
• Asset’s market value has declined significantly.
• Significant technological, market, economic or legal changes with an adverse effect on the entity.
• Increase in market interest rates and that increase is likely to affect the discount rate used in VIU.
• Carrying amount of the net assets of the entity is more than total FV of its equity.
Measuring RA
It is the higher of:
• FV – CTS
• Value in use
Fair value
1. Best evidence of an asset’s FV is a price in a binding sale agreement in an arm’s length transaction.
2. FV does not reflect a forced sale price, unless management is compelled to sell immediately.
Costs of disposal
1. Costs of disposal are incremental costs directly attributable to the disposal of an asset or CGU.
2. Costs that have already been recognised as liabilities are not CTS (e.g. provision for abandonment).
3. Costs of disposal include: legal costs, stamp duty, transaction taxes, costs of removing the asset etc.
Page | 93
4. Costs of disposal don’t include: Employee termination benefits; finance costs and income tax expense.
Discounting
1. Use pre-tax rate discount rate
2. Use the expected cash flow approach for discounting
Example 1
An asset has a remaining useful life of 3 years. Net cash flows of Rs 10,000 (probability 60%) or Rs 15,000
(probability 40%) are expected to inflow each year. The carrying amount of the asset is Rs 40,000 and post-tax
discount rate is 5%. Compute impairment, if any. Pre-tax discount rate
Example 2
A machine has the following future cash flows, based on management’s most recently approved budgets:
20X4 20X5 20X6
Outflows: - - - - - - - - - - - Rs’000 - - - - - - - - - -
Maintenance costs 100 120 80
Operational costs (electricity, water, labour etc) 200 220 240
Interest on finance lease 60 50 40
Tax payments on profits 16 20 28
Cost of increasing the machine’s capacity 0 220 0
Depreciation 80 80 80
Expenses to be paid in respect of 20X3 accruals 30 0 0
Inflows:
Basic inflows: see note 1 1,000 1,200 1,400
Extra profits resulting from the upgrade 0 20 50
Page | 94
The useful life of the machine is expected to last for 5 years. The growth rate in the business in 20X3 was an
unusual 15% whereas the average growth rate over the last 7 years is: (a) in industry 10% (b) in business 8%.
Calculate the future net cash flows to be used in the calculation of the value in use of the machine at 31 December
20X3 assuming that a 5-year projection is considered to be appropriate.
CGUs
1. A CGU is the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows that are largely independent of
the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets.
Example 3
A company operates a mine (with individual carrying amount of Rs 1000) and has a provision for abandonment
recognised as part of the cost of the mine. The carrying amount of the provision for restoration costs is Rs 500.
The entity has received offers to buy the mine at a price of Rs 800 and the buyer will assume the obligation to
restore. The VIU of the mine is Rs 1,200, excluding restoration costs. Identify the CGU and compute carrying
amount and recoverable amount of CGU.
Corporate assets
1. Corporate assets are assets other than GW that contribute to the future cash flows of more than one CGU.
2. If a corporate asset can be allocated to a CGU, it is done on basis of relative carrying amounts of CGUs.
3. If the remaining useful life of the CGUs to which a corporate asset is allocated is different from remaining
useful of the corporate asset, the corporate asset is allocated on the basis of weighted average relative carrying
amounts of CGUs.
Page | 95
Example 4
If remaining useful life of CGU A is 10 years and of CGU B, CGU C and the corporate asset is 20 years each. How
the corporate asset should be allocated if the following information is available:
A B C Total
Carrying amount 100 150 200 450
Useful life 10 years 20 years 20 years
Example 5
There are 3 CGUs (toothpaste, brushes and tyres production lines) and 3 corporate assets (a building, phone
system and a computer platform). The building and phone system support all CGUs whereas the computer
platform supports the toothpaste and wire-brush units only.
At the 31 December 20X5 the following values were determined: CA RA
Cash-generating units excluding corporate assets: - - - - Rs 000 - - - -
Cash-generating unit: toothpaste 1000 600
Cash-generating unit: wire-brushes 2000 1500
Cash-generating unit: rubber tyres 4000 3200
Corporate assets
Corporate asset: building 700
Corporate asset: phone system 350
Corporate asset: computer platform 1050
Determine the amount of the impairment to be allocated to the entity’s assets, assuming that:
A. the corporate assets can be allocated to the relevant cash-generating units. The appropriate method of
allocation is based on the carrying amount of the cash-generating unit’s individual assets as a percentage of cash-
generating unit’s total assets excluding corporate assets to be allocated.
B. the corporate assets cannot be allocated to the relevant cash-generating units.
2. In allocating impairment loss, do not reduce the carrying amount of an asset below the highest of:
(a) its own FV less CTS (if determinable);
(b) its VIU (if determinable); and
(c) zero. [However after 1st round of impairment a 2nd round may be started if necessary]
3. If entity does not intend to dispose of an asset, no impairment loss is recognised for the asset if the asset’s FV
less CTS is less than its carrying amount, provided that the related CGU is not impaired.
Page | 96
4. If entity intends to dispose of an asset, an impairment loss is recognised for the asset if the FV less CTS is less
than its carrying amount even if the related CGU is not impaired.
Example 6
A machine has suffered physical damage. The machine’s FV less CTS is Rs 50,000 and its carrying amount is Rs
70,000. The CGU that the machine forms part of has a carrying amount of Rs 500,000 and recoverable amount of
Rs 800,000. Determine impairment (if any) assuming:
(a) management wishes to replace the machine (b) management doesn’t wish to replace machine
Recognizing impairment
1. Impairment loss shall be recognised in profit or loss
2. Impairment loss of an asset for which revaluation surplus exists is taken to OCI

IAS 29 + IFRIC 7
Scope
Applies when the economy of the functional currency of an entity exhibits following features:
• Cumulative inflation over 3 years is approaching or exceeds 100% (most critical feature)
• General population prefers to keep its wealth in non-monetary assets
• Interest rates, wages and prices are linked to a price index
• Normal credit terms also reflect compensation for time value of money
Gain or loss on the net monetary position is recorded in profit or loss and is separately disclosed.
Example: ABC limited started its operations on 1-Jan-2012 and operates in Zimbabwe, a hyperinflationary
economy. Given below are extracts from its draft statement of financial position at Dec 31, 2012.
Assets Zim $
Property, plant and equipment (PPE) 10,000
Trade debts 5,000
Investments at fair value 15,000
30,000
PPE and Investments were acquired on 1-Jan-2012 when the Share capital was also invested in business. Trade
debts, trade payables and retained earnings can be assumed to have been accrued evenly over the year. Fair
value of the investments was remeasured as at December 31, 2012. Relevant GPIs are as follows:
GPI
1-Jan-2012 170
31-Dec-2012 300
Average for the year 250
Required: Prepare the statement of financial position of ABC limited as at December 31, 2012.
Page | 101
Statement of cash flows
Cashflow = Amount x GPI at year end .
Avg. GPI during year
Taxes
The restatement of financial statements increases the temporary differences between the carrying amount of
individual assets and liabilities in the statement of financial position and their tax bases. Deferred tax for these
differences is recorded under IAS 12.
IFRIC 7
In the reporting period in which an entity identifies the existence of hyperinflation in the economy of its
functional currency, not having been hyperinflationary in the prior period, the entity shall apply the
requirements of IAS 29 as if the economy had always been hyperinflationary.
Three statements of financial position are presented and at the beginning of the earliest period presented in the
financial statements, the entity shall restate all non-monetary items to reflect the effect of inflation from the
date the assets were acquired and the liabilities were incurred or assumed until the end of the reporting period.
For non‑monetary items carried in the opening statement of financial position at FV / RV / NRV, the restatement
shall reflect the effect of inflation from the dates those carrying amounts were determined until the end of the
reporting period.
After an entity has restated its financial statements, all corresponding figures in the financial statements for a
subsequent reporting period, including deferred tax items, are restated by applying the change in the measuring
unit for that subsequent reporting period only to the restated financial statements for the previous reporting
period.

IFRS 17
Scope
• Insurance contracts, including reinsurance contracts
• Investment contracts with discretionary participation features
Recognition
An entity shall recognize a group of insurance contracts it issues from the earliest of the following:
(a) the beginning of the coverage period of the group of contracts
(b) the date when the first payment from a policyholder in the group becomes due
Measurement
On initial recognition, an entity shall measure a group of insurance contracts at the total of:

outflows less the PV of the future cash inflows that will arise under insurance contracts
(b) Contractual service margin (CSM) – Unearned profit the entity will recognize as it provides insurance
Discount rate
Discount rate shall reflect characteristics of the cash flows and observable current market prices for such insurance
contracts
Subsequent measurement
At end year end, the insurance liability shall be the sum of:
(a) the liability for remaining coverage comprising PV of FCF plus CSM
(b) the liability for incurred claims.
Onerous contracts
An insurance contract is onerous at initial recognition if the total of the FCF, CSM and contract acquisition
cashflows is negative. An entity shall recognize a loss in P&L for the net outflow.
Page | 103
cash flows, minus the amount recognised as insurance revenue for coverage provided in that period, and
minus any investment component paid or transferred to the liability for incurred claims.
Derecognition
An entity shall derecognize an insurance contract when it is extinguished.
Income or expenses from reinsurance contracts held shall be presented separately from the expenses or income
from insurance contracts issued.

by E&E entities.
(a) before the E&E of mineral resources, such as expenditures incurred before the entity has obtained the legal
rights to explore a specific area.
(b) after the technical feasibility and commercial viability of extracting a mineral resource are demonstrable.
Defined terms
1. E&E assets
E&E expenditures are recognised as assets in accordance with the entity’s accounting policy.
2. E&E expenditures
Expenditures incurred by an entity in connection with the E&E of mineral resources before the technical feasibility
and commercial viability of extracting a mineral resource are demonstrable.
• The search for mineral resources after entity has obtained legal rights to explore in a specific area
• The determination of the technical feasibility and commercial viability of extracting the minerals
When developing its E&E asset accounting policy, entity shall apply Para 10 of IAS 8 and is exempt from applying
Para 11 and 12, summarized below:
10- In the absence of an IFRS that specifically applies to a transaction management shall use its judgement in
developing an accounting policy that results in information that is relevant, reliable, reflect economic substance,
free from bias, prudent and complete.
11, 12- In making the judgement described in paragraph 10, management shall refer to IFRS dealing with similar
issues and the Framework, recent pronouncements of other standard-setting bodies, other accounting literature
and accepted industry practices.

exhaustive):
2. Expenditures related to the development of mineral resources shall not be recognised as E&E assets.
3. Under IAS 37 recognise any obligations for removal and restoration that are incurred during a particular period
as a consequence of having undertaken the E&E.
After recognition, apply either the cost model or the revaluation model to the E&E assets. If the revaluation model
is applied it should be that of IAS 16 if the assets are tangible and that of IAS 38 if they are intangible.
An entity may change its accounting policy for E&E expenditure if the change makes the financial statements more
relevant and/or reliable and the change brings its FS closer to criteria in IAS 8.
2. Using a tangible asset to develop an intangible asset does not change a tangible asset into an intangible asset.
1. An E&E asset shall no longer be classified as such when the technical feasibility and commercial viability of
extracting a mineral resource are demonstrable.
2. E&E assets shall be assessed for impairment, and any impairment loss shall be recognised, before
reclassification.

future, and is not expected to be renewed.
(b) substantive expenditure on further E&E of mineral resources in the specific area is neither budgeted nor
planned.
(c) E&E of mineral resources in an area have not led to discovery of commercially viable quantities of mineral
resources and entity has decided to discontinue such activities in the area.
(d) sufficient data exist to indicate that, although a development in the area is likely to proceed, CA of E&E asset
is unlikely to be recovered in full from successful development/sale.

Definition
Inventories are assets:
✓ held for sale in the ordinary course of business;
✓ in the process of production for such sale; or
✓ in the form of materials or supplies to be consumed in the production process
Measurement of inventories
Inventories shall be measured at the lower of cost and NRV.

Inventories are written down to NRV item by item. You can group similar items.
NRV of inventory held to satisfy firm contracts is based on the contract price
Raw materials are not written down if the finished product in which it will be used is not written down.
A new assessment of NRV is made in each subsequent period. When the circumstances reverse, write back
inventories upto cost. The amount of reversal of write-down of is recorded as a reduction from Cost of Sales.

IAS 8
Definitions
Accounting policies are the specific principles and practices applied by an entity in preparing and presenting
financial statements.
A change in accounting estimate is an adjustment of the carrying amount of an asset or a liability that results from
the assessment of the present status of the expected future benefits and obligations associated with assets and
liabilities.
Prior period errors are omissions and misstatements in financial statements for one or more prior periods arising
from a failure to use of reliable information that:
(a) was available when financial statements for those periods were authorised for issue; and
(b) could reasonably be expected to have been obtained and taken into account
Entity shall disclose the nature and amount of a change in an accounting estimate
• in the current period
• in future periods
Errors
Correct material prior period errors retrospectively by:
Page | 111
(a) restating the comparative amounts for the prior periods presented
(b) restating the opening balances of assets, liabilities and equity for the earliest prior period presented.
Hindsight should not be used when applying a new accounting policy or correcting errors for a prior period. For
example, if you correct a prior period error in calculating its liability for employees’ accumulated sick leave in you
should disregard information about an unusually severe influenza season during the next period that became
available after the financial statements for the prior period were authorised for issue.
Example 1
Aay Limited purchased an asset costing Rs 100,000 on 1-1-2012. The useful life was estimated as 5 years. On 1-1-
2014 they revised the estimate of overall useful life to 4 years. Show adjustments to be incorporated in the
financial statements for the year ended 2014 including comparatives.
Example 2
Bee Limited purchased an asset costing Rs 100,000 on 1-1-2012. However it was erroneously valued at Rs 10,000
in the books. The error was identified on 1-1-2013. Show adjustments to be incorporated in the financial
statements for the year ended 2013 including comparatives.
Example 3
Cee Limited purchased an asset costing Rs 100,000 on 1-1-2012. It was the policy of the company to provide
depreciation at 20% on reducing balance method. Later on 1-1-2014, the company changed its policy to provide
for depreciation on such assets at 20% straight line method. Show adjustments to be incorporated in the financial
statements for the year ended 2014 including comparatives.
Example 4
Dee Limited estimates the cost of its inventory using FIFO basis. It changes its method of estimation to weighted
average effective 1-1-2014. The value of its inventory using either method was as follows.
There is minor difference in inventory values for period preceding 31-12-2013 using either method.
Show adjustments to be incorporated in the financial statements for the year ended 2014 including comparatives.

IAS 10
Definitions
Events after the reporting period are those events that occur between the end of the reporting period and the
date when the financial statements are authorised for issue. Two types of events exist:
(a) those that provide evidence of conditions that existed at the end of the reporting period (adjusting events)
(b) those that are indicative of conditions that arose after the reporting period (non-adjusting events)
Date of authorisation for issue is date of approval by Board and NOT the date of approval by AGM.
Disclose the following for each material category of non-adjusting event after the reporting period:
(a) the nature of the event
(b) an estimate of its financial effect, or a statement that such an estimate cannot be made.
Examples of non-adjusting events after the reporting period that would generally result in disclosure:
(a) decline in market value of investments
(b) dividend declaration
(c) a major business combination
(d) announcing a plan to discontinue an operation
(e) major purchases of assets or classification of assets as held for sale
(f) destruction of a major asset by fire
(g) announcing, or commencing the implementation of, a major restructuring
(h) major ordinary share transactions and potential ordinary share transactions
(i) changes in tax rates or laws that have a significant effect on current and deferred tax
(j) entering into significant commitments or contingent liabilities
Going concern
An entity shall not prepare its financial statements on a going concern basis if it determines after the reporting
period that it intends to liquidate the entity or cease trading, or it has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Disclosures
• Date of authorisation for issue.
• Update disclosures that relate to adjusting events in the light of the new information e.g. a contingent liability.
Page | 113
IAS 37
Scope
Provision for depreciation and doubtful debts are not addressed in IAS 37.
Definitions
A provision is a liability of uncertain timing or amount.
A liability is a present obligation arising from past events, to be settled in outflow of economic benefits.
An obligating event is an event that creates a legal or constructive obligation and the entity has no realistic
alternative but to settle that obligation. Thus the entity must settle the obligation even if it closes down business
today.
A constructive obligation is created through past practice, published policies or a sufficiently specific current
statement that has created a valid expectation on the part of others.
A contingent asset is a possible asset that arises from past events, the existence of which will be confirmed by
future events not wholly within the control of the entity.
An onerous contract is a contract in which: Unavoidable costs of meeting the obligations > Economic benefits
expected to be received under it.
A restructuring is a program planned and controlled by management that materially changes either scope or
manner of business.
Page | 114
Contingent liabilities
Where an entity is jointly and severally liable for an obligation:
✓ Part of obligation expected to be met by other parties is treated as a contingent liability.
✓ Part of obligation expected to be met by the entity is treated as provision.
Contingent assets
a. If inflow is probable (i.e. probability of inflow > 50%) disclose the contingent asset. An example is a claim that
an entity is pursuing through legal processes, where the outcome is uncertain.
b. If probability of inflow is virtually certain (i.e. > 90%), then the related asset is not a contingent asset and it’s
recognized as a normal asset.
Provisions
A provision is recognized when the both the definition of a liability and the recognition criteria are met:
(a) there is a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event (definition) Entity may be required
by law to carry out expenditure to operate (for example, by fitting smoke filters in a certain type of factory).
Because the entity can avoid the future expenditure by its future actions, for example by closing down the factory,
it has no present obligation.
(b) outflow of economic benefits is probable (recognition criteria no. 1); and
(c) reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation can be made (recognition criteria no. 2).
Page | 115
Provisions - Reimbursements
1. Where expenditure required to settle a provision is expected to be reimbursed by another party, the
reimbursement asset is recognized when it is virtually certain to be received.
2. The amount of reimbursement asset shall not exceed the amount of the provision.
3. In the statement of comprehensive income, the expense may be offset.
Provisions - Restructuring
1. A constructive obligation to restructure arises only when an entity:
(a) has a detailed formal plan for the restructuring identifying:
✓ the business concerned
✓ the principal locations affected
✓ the employees terminated
✓ the expenditures that will be undertaken
✓ date of implementation of plan (which should not be too distant in the future)
(b) has started to implement that plan or has announced its main features to those affected by it.

IAS 16
Scope
This Standard does not apply to:
(a) PPE classified as held for sale (b) biological assets
(c) exploration and evaluation assets (d) mineral rights and reserves
Definitions
PPE are tangible items that:
(a) are held for use in the production or supply of goods or services, for rental, or for administrative purposes
(b) are expected to be used during more than one period.
Subsequent costs
The cost of an item of PPE comprises:
(a) its purchase price, including import duties after deducting trade discounts and rebates
(b) directly attributable costs e.g. costs of employee benefits, site preparation, installation and assembly costs
(c) the initial estimate of the costs of dismantling the item and restoring the site on which it is located
Recognise in the carrying amount of PPE the cost of replacing parts and derecognise the replacement.
Separately capitalise inspection costs.
The income and related expenses of incidental operations are recognised in profit or loss.
If payment is deferred beyond normal credit terms, the difference between the cash price and the total payment
is recognised as interest over the period of credit unless such interest is capitalised in accordance with IAS 23.
Exchange of PPE
The cost of an exchanged an item of PPE is measured at fair value unless
(a) the exchange transaction lacks commercial substance
(b) the fair value of neither the asset received nor the asset given up is reliably measurable.
The fair value of the asset given up is used to measure the cost of the asset received unless the fair value of the
asset received is more clearly evident.
Compensation for impairment: Compensation from third parties for items of PPE that were impaired shall be
included in profit or loss when the compensation becomes receivable.

Ex 1: Measuring Cost of PPE
Determine the cost of a plant imported and installed during 2022 . Following details are relevant.
(a) Plant was imported at invoice price of Rs 500 million. Custom duty & Sales tax of Rs 100m & Rs 50m were
paid at import stage respectively. Since the Plant was kept on the port for longer than usual, an extra
ordinary penalty of Rs 10m was paid to the port authorities. Shipping charges of Rs 20m were also paid.
(b) Freight charges of Rs 5 million were paid for transport of Plant from Port to the Production Facilities.
(c) Plant was commissioned at a further cost of Rs 10 million. In addition, company owned vehicles were used
to manoeuvre the Plant for 15 days, whose depreciation for relevant days was Rs 1 million.
(d) Plant records were managed by Finance dept. whose annual cost is Rs 2 million.
(e) Once the plant was installed, a celebration party of the direct labour force was held at a cost of Rs 1 million.
Ex 2: Cost model
A machine was initially recorded at a cost of Rs 800 million. It has a useful life of 5 years. After 5 years, it can be
sold for Rs 80 million. Similar 5 year old machines are sold today for Rs 50 million. You are required to compute
the carrying amount after Year 1.
Ex 3: Revaluation model
A machine has an initial cost of Rs 1000m. It has a useful life of 5 years. It was revalued subsequently as follows.
End of Year 2: Rs 1000m ; End of Year 3: Rs 500m ; End of Year 4: Rs 300m
Show the impacts on the financial statements of the above including deferred tax implications assuming tax rate
is 30%. Revaluation surplus is transferred to Retained earnings over life of the asset.
Ex 4: Exchange of assets
X Limited exchanged the following machines during 2022. Show journal entries to record these transactions.
• Machine A was given and a Plant was received. X Limited also made a payment of Rs 100m in Cash. Carrying
amount & fair value of Machine A at the date of exchange was Rs 300m & Rs 350m respectively. Fair value
of the Plant received was Rs 430m.
• Machine B was given and a Vehicle was received. X Limited also made received of Rs 50m in Cash. Carrying
amount of Machine B at the date of exchange was Rs 200m. Its fair value was not known. Fair value of the

IAS 23
What is borrowing costs?
➢ Interest expense using the EIR
➢ Finance charges paid under finance lease
➢ Exchange loss on forex loan to the extent difference is caused by interest rates
Less:
➢ Investment income on specific loans
Commencement of capitalisation
Expense is incurred + borrowing costs is incurred + activities to prepare asset for use have begun
Suspension of capitalisation
Period is long + Suspension is not normal or necessary
Cessation of capitalisation
When the asset or a part thereof is substantially complete even in minor administrative work is outstanding.
Hyperinflationary economy
➢ Some part of interest rate compensates for inflation
➢ Under IAS 29 assets to which borrowing cost is capitalised is already restated for impact of inflation
➢ If you capitalize the part of borrowing costs compensating for inflation to such inflation adjusted asset, you
are double counting
➢ So capitalise real interest instead of nominal interest to assets already restated under IAS 29

IAS 38, SIC 32
Dual nature assets
In determining whether asset should be treated under IAS 16 or IAS 38, assess which element is more significant.
• Software without which the computer can’t operate e.g. operating system is treated as PPE.
• When software is not an integral part of a hardware it is treated as an intangible asset.
Definitions
1. Development is the application of research findings or other knowledge to a plan or design for the production
of new or substantially improved products before the start of commercial production or use.
2. Intangible asset is an identifiable non-monetary asset without physical substance.
3. Monetary assets are money held and assets to be received in fixed or determinable amounts of money.
4. Research is original and planned investigation undertaken with the prospect of gaining new scientific or
technical knowledge and understanding.
Page | 124
2. Reliable measurement criterion is always considered to be satisfied for intangible assets acquired in business
combinations.
3. The cost of intangible asset includes:
(a) Purchase price + import duties + non-refundable purchase taxes Less trade discounts and rebates
(b) Plus directly attributable cost of preparing the asset for its intended use such as:
• professional fees arising directly from bringing the asset to its working condition
• costs of testing whether the asset is functioning properly
3. The cost of intangible asset does not include:
• costs of introducing a new product or service (including advertising and promotional activities)
• costs of conducting business in a new location or with a new customers (including staff training)
• administration and other general overhead costs
• initial operating losses
• expenses/income from incidental operations
4. If payment for an intangible asset is deferred beyond normal credit terms, its cost is the cash price equivalent.
The difference is recognised as interest expense unless it is capitalised under IAS 23.
5. If intangible asset is acquired in a business combination, its cost is its fair value at the acquisition date
Exchanges of assets
Commercial FV of both the asset given up FV of only the asset acquired FV of neither the asset given up

• a development phase.
4. If you cannot distinguish the research phase from the development phase of an internal project to create an
intangible asset, expense all the expenditure on that project.
Research phase
1. Expense all expenditures during research phase.
2. The term research phase is broader than the term research. Examples of research activities are:
(a) activities aimed at obtaining new knowledge;
(b) evaluation and final selection of knowledge;
(c) search for alternatives for materials, products, processes, systems or services; and
(d) the formulation, design, evaluation and final selection of possible alternatives.
Development phase
1. An intangible shall be recognised during development phase if entity can demonstrate all of the following:
(a) technical feasibility
(b) its intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it
(c) its ability to use or sell the intangible asset
(d) existence of a market for the output of the intangible asset or the intangible asset itself
(e) adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete and use/sell the intangible asset. This can be
demonstrated by a business plan or obtaining lender’s willingness to fund the plan
(f) ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset (costing system)
2. The term development phase is broader than the term development. Examples of development activities are:
(a) design, construction and testing of pre-production prototypes
(b) design of tools, moulds and dies
(c) design, construction and operation of a pilot plant not for commercial production; and
(d) design, construction and testing of a chosen alternative
Includes:
(a) costs of materials and services
(b) costs of employee benefits
(c) fees to register a legal right
(d) amortisation of patents and licenses used to generate the intangible asset
(e) borrowing cost if criteria for IAS 23 are met
Recognition of an expense
Expense out:
• Expenditure on research
• Start-up costs e.g. legal and secretarial costs incurred in establishing a legal entity
Page | 126
• Expenditure to open a new facility or business (i.e. pre-opening costs)
• Expenditures for launching new products (i.e. pre-operating costs)
• Expenditure on training activities
• Expenditure on advertising and promotional activities (including mail order catalogues)
• Expenditure on relocating or reorganising part or all of an entity.
Revaluation model - Maximum same as IAS 16 but following are important noteworthy points:
1. FV shall be determined by reference to an active market.
2. If an intangible asset of the class has no active market, the asset shall be carried at cost model.
3. The revaluation model is applied only after an asset has been initially recognised at cost.
4. If the asset did not meet the criteria for recognition until part of the way through the process the revaluation
model may be applied to the whole of that asset.
5. You cannot revalue an intangible assets that was previously expensed out (not recognized as asset)
6. Revaluation model may be applied to an intangible that was received by way of a government grant and
recognised at a nominal amount.
7. If FV of intangible asset can no longer be determined by reference to active market, keep carrying it at the
amount of last revaluation.
Useful life
If legal rights are conveyed for a limited term that can be renewed, the useful life of the intangible asset shall
include the renewal period only if the renewal can occur without significant cost
Residual value
The residual value of an intangible asset with a finite useful life shall be assumed to be zero unless:
(a) there is a commitment by a third party to purchase the asset at the end of its useful life; or
(b) there is a residual value for the asset in an active market which will still be in existence at the end of asset’s
useful life.
SIC 32
Issue
1. The stages of a web site’s development can be described as follows:
a) Planning – includes, feasibility study; defining objectives; defining specifications; evaluating alternatives;
selecting preferences.
Page | 127
b) Application and Infrastructure Development – includes, obtaining domain name; purchasing and developing
hardware and operating software; installing developed applications; stress testing.
c) Graphical Design Development – includes designing the appearance of web pages.
d) Content Development – includes uploading information on the web site before the completion of
development. This information may also be stored in separate databases integrated into the site.
e) Operating stage - During this stage, an entity maintains and enhances the applications, infrastructure,
graphical design and content.
2. This Interpretation does not apply to expenditure on hardware. It is accounted for under IAS 16.
3. When an entity pays an ISP for hosting the entity’s web site, it is recognised as an expense.
4. This Interpretation does not apply to web site software for sale to others. IAS 2 applies to it.
Consensus
1. Firstly see the purpose of website. All expenditure on a website developed for advertising products is
expensed.
2. Then check the nature of expenditure. Expenditure on training employees and maintaining the web site is also
expensed.
If the entity having Crypto-graphic assets is a broker-trader dealing in such assets, the entity accounts for such
investments as inventories under IAS 2. IAS 2 allows inventories held by broker traders to be carried at Fair value
less Cost to sell, hence these investments are carried at Fair value less transactional costs of disposal.

IAS 41
Scope covers the accounting treatment and disclosures related to agricultural activity.
Agricultural activity is the management by an entity of the biological transformation and harvest of biological
assets for sale or for conversion into agricultural produce or into additional biological assets.
Biological transformation comprises the processes of growth, degeneration, production, and procreation that
cause qualitative or quantitative changes in a biological asset.
Harvest is the detachment of produce from a biological asset or the cessation of a biological asset’s life
processes.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly
transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
Costs to sell
• Include commissions to brokers and dealers, levies by regulatory agencies and commodity exchanges, and
transfer taxes and duties.
• Exclude transport and other costs to take assets to market. Such transport and other costs are deducted in
determining FV (that is, FV is a market price less transport and other costs necessary to get an asset to a
market).

• Thereafter, apply IAS 2 to the produced. Thus for example IAS 41 does not deal with the processing of apples
into juice by a juice company who has grown the apples for preparation of juice.

IFRIC 1
Changes during life of asset - cost model:
• Changes in the liability shall be added to, or deducted from, the cost of the related asset. Dr/Cr
Decommissioning liability; Cr/Dr Cost of asset
• If a decrease in the liability exceeds the carrying amount of the asset, the excess shall be recognised in profit
or loss.
• If the adjustment results in an addition to the cost of an asset, the entity shall consider whether this is an
indication that the new carrying amount of the asset may be impaired.
Unwinding of discount
Periodic unwinding of discount is recognised in profit or loss. Capitalisation of this unwinding under IAS 23 is not
permitted.
Page | 131
(iii) When the plant commenced its operations i.e. on April 1, 2005 the prevailing market based discount rate was
10%.
(iv) On March 31, 2007 the plant was revalued at Rs. 66 million
(v) On March 31, 2011 estimate of site restoration cost was revised to Rs. 14 million.
(vi) Useful life of the plant is 10 years and WML follows straight line method of depreciation.
(vii) Appropriate adjustments have been recorded in the prior years i.e. up to March 31, 2010.
Example 3: Revaluation model with deferred tax implications (Summer ‘16 Q5 Adapted)
On 1 January 2014, Zalay Limited (ZL) acquired a plant for Rs 3,000 million. ZL has a legal obligation to dismantle
the plant at the end of its four years useful life. On the date of acquisition it was estimated that the cost of
dismantling would amount to Rs. 400 million. ZL uses the revaluation model for subsequent measurement of
its property, plant and equipment and accounts for revaluation on the net replacement method.
Depreciation is provided on straight line basis.
The details of revaluation carried out by the Professional Valuer and the revision in the estimated cost of
dismantling as at 31 December 2014 and 2015 are as follows:
Tax and discount rates applicable to ZL are 30% and 10% respectively. The tax authorities allow initial and normal
depreciation at the rate of 50% and 10% respectively under the reducing balance method.
Required:
Prepare journal entries to record the above transactions for the year ended 31 December 2015, in accordance
with International Financial Reporting Standards. You may assume that revaluation surplus is transferred to
retained earnings over life of the asset. Also specify what would happen if in the question it was said that revalued
amount was computed using (a) discounted cashflow method of revaluation; (b) depreciated replacement cost
method of revaluation. (20)

IPSAS
Overview of the IPSAS
• IPSAS were developed to improve the transparency and accountability of governments and their agencies by
improving and standardizing financial reporting.
• The International Public Sector Accounting Standards Board (IPSASB) is an independent standard setting board
supported by the International Federation of Accountants (IFAC).
• The IPSASB issues IPSAS, guidance, and other resources for use by the public sector around the world.
• As a general rule, the IPSAS maintain the accounting treatment and original text of the IFRS, unless there is a
significant public sector issue that warrants a departure.
• IPSAS are aimed for application to the general-purpose financial reporting of all public sector entities other
than Government Business Enterprises (GBEs). GBEs are expected to apply IFRS.
• The IPSASB standard-setting activities follow a public due process.
• Some information on the current status of IPSAS adoption by governments and intergovernmental
organizations can be found on the IPSAS page on Wikipedia.
Summary
• Fundamental principles same as IFRS
• A complete set of financial statements comprises:
o Statement of financial position
o Statement of financial performance
o Statement of changes in net assets/equity
o Cash flow statement
o When the entity makes it approved budget publicly available, a comparison of budget and accrual
amounts
o Notes, comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes
• Assets and liabilities, and revenue and expenses, are generally not offset
• Comparative prior-period information is presented
• Financial statements generally to be prepared annually
• Current/noncurrent distinction for assets and liabilities is normally required

a) Murabaha: Murabaha is a type of sale where seller expressly mentions the cost he has incurred on the item to
be sold and sells it to another person by adding some profit or mark-up thereon which is known to the buyer.
Mutually agreed profit can be either in lump-sum or through an agreed ratio of profit to be charged over the
cost.
b) Inventories: Inventories are assets held for sale under Murabaha transactions in the ordinary course of
business.
Page | 139
g) The price is absolutely certain.
h) The sale is unconditional unless the condition is according to custom of trade.
Example 1: A sells the unborn calf of his cow to B. The sale is void.
Example 2: A sells to B a car which is presently owned by C, but A is hopeful that he will buy it from C and shall
deliver it to B subsequently. The sale is void.
Examples 3: A has purchased a car from B. B has not yet delivered it to A or to his agent. A cannot sell the car to
C. If he sells it before taking its delivery real or constructive from B, the sale is void.
Example 4: A has purchased a car from B. B has placed the car in a garage where A has free access and B has
allowed him to take the delivery real or constructive from that place whenever he wishes. The car is in the
constructive possession of A. If A sells the car to C without acquiring physical possession, the sale is valid.
Example 5: There is a building comprising of a number of apartments built on the same pattern. A, the owner of
the building says to B "I sell one of these apartments to you”. B accepts it. The sale is void unless the apartment
intended to be sold is specifically identified or pointed out to the buyer.
Example 6: A sells his car stolen by an anonymous person and the buyer purchases it under the hope that he
will manage to recover it. The sale is void.
Example 7: A says to B, “if you pay within a month, the price is Rs.50/. But if you pay after two months, the
price is Rs.55/- B agrees without absolutely determining one of the two prices. In this case as the price
remains uncertain the sale is void, unless anyone of the two alternatives is settled by the parties at the time of
concluding the transaction.
Example 8: A buys a car from B, with a condition that B will employ his son in his firm. The sale is conditional,
hence invalid.
Example 9: A buys a refrigerator from B, with a condition that B undertake its free service for 2 years. The
condition, being recognized as a part of the transaction, is valid and the sale is lawful.

Other Principles relating to imported commodity
a) Cost of commodity may be unknown but the bank importing the commodity and the eventual buyer (client)

7. Modalities of Murabaha
a) The client and the bank sign an “agreement to sell” whereby bank promises to sell and client promises to buy
commodity at a profit margin of X percentage or amount over cost. This is not an actual sale and is just a
promise to affect a sale in future. The relationship between bank and client is of a promisor and promisee.
b) The bank appoints client as agent for purchasing the commodity and an agency agreement is signed. The
relationship is now of a principal and agent.
c) The client purchases commodity on behalf of bank and takes possession as agent of bank. Purchase Order,
Receiving Report, Delivery Challan etc. should be in the name of the bank. The payment for commodity may
be made directly by bank or through the client (agent).
d) The client informs the bank that he has purchased the commodity and makes an offer to purchase it from the
bank.
e) The bank accepts the offer and the sale is concluded whereby the ownership as well as the risk of the
commodity is transferred to the client.
f) An invoice is raised by the bank. Now the relationship between bank and client is that of a creditor and debtor.
g) The purchase of the commodity from the client himself on "buy back" agreement is not allowed in Shariah.

IFRS PRACTICE STATEMENT: MATERIALITY
Scope: It is not intended for entities applying the IFRS for SMEs.
Definition of material: Information is material if omitting it or misstating it could influence decisions that users
make on the basis of financial information about a specific reporting entity.
Pervasiveness of materiality judgements: An entity is only required to apply IFRS when the effect of applying
them is material and need not provide a disclosure specified by an IFRS if it is not material.
Primary users and their information needs: Primary users of an entity's financial statements are existing and
potential investors, lenders and other creditors. General purpose financial statements are not intended to address
specialized information needs; they focus on common information needs.
Impact of publicly available information: Financial statements are required to be comprehensive documents and
an entity assesses materiality regardless of whether some of the information may be also available from other
sources.
Four-step process
Step 1
The entity identifies information that has the potential to be material.
Step 2
Assess whether the information identified in Step 1 is material. In making this assessment, the entity needs to
consider quantitative (size) and qualitative (nature) factors.
Step 3
Organize financial statements in a manner that supports clear and concise communication.
• Emphasize material matters
• Keep it simple and direct
• Highlight relationships between different pieces of information
• Provide information in a format that is appropriate for its type
• Provide information in a way that maximizes comparability
• Avoid or minimize duplication
• Ensure material information is not obscured by immaterial information.
Step 4
Assess the draft financial statements as a whole. Consider whether information is material both individually and
in combination with other information. This final assessment may lead to adding additional information or
removing information that is now considered immaterial, aggregating, disaggregating or reorganizing information
or even to begin the process again from Step 2.
