CHAPTER 5
INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS:
PART II
Chapter Outline
I.
II.
Current Liabilities
A. IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements, requires liabilities to be classified as
current or noncurrent. Current liabilities are those liabilities that a company:
a. expects to settle in its normal operating cycle,
b. holds primarily for the purpose of trading,
c. expects to settle within twelve months of the balance sheet date, or
d. does not have the right to defer until twelve months after the balance sheet date.

IV.
Employee Benefits
A. IAS 19, Employee Benefits, is a single standard that covers all forms of employee
compensation and benefits (other than share-based compensation), including
postemployment benefits such as pensions.
B. The accounting for defined benefit pension plans and other defined post-employment
benefit plans (such as medical and life insurance benefits) is basically the same, and is
generally similar to the accounting under U.S. GAAP, with some exceptions.
C. Differences between IFRS and U.S. GAAP exist with respect to:
a. The amount recognized on the employers balance sheet as an asset or liability,
and
b. The recognition of past service costs and actuarial gains/losses.
V.
Share-based Payment
A. IFRS 2, Share-based Payment, establishes measurement principles and specific
requirements for three types of share-based payment transactions: equity-settled
share-based payment transactions, cash-settled share-based payment transactions,
and choice-of-settlement share-based payment transactions.
B. Similar to U.S. GAAP, IFRS uses a fair value approach in accounting for share-based
payment transactions. In some situations, these transactions are recognized at the fair
value of the goods or services obtained, in other cases, at the fair value of the equity
instrument awarded. Fair value of shares and stock options should be based on
market prices, if available; otherwise a generally accepted valuation model should be
used.
VI.
Income Taxes
A. IAS 12, Income Taxes, and U.S. GAAP take a similar approach to accounting for
income taxes. Both standards adopt an asset-and-liability approach that recognizes
deferred tax assets and liabilities for temporary differences and for operating loss and
tax credit carryforwards. However, differences do exist between the two sets of
standards.

Answers to Questions
1. A provision is a liability of uncertain timing or amount. A provision must be recognized when:
(1) there is a present obligation, (2) an outflow of resources to settle the obligation is
probable, and (3) the obligation can be reliably estimated.
2. A contingent liability is (a) a possible obligation or (b) a present obligation that is not
recognized as a provision because (1) an outflow of resources to settle the obligation is not
probable or (2) the obligation cannot be reliably estimated. Contingent liabilities are
disclosed unless the likelihood of an outflow of resources is remote.
3. A constructive obligation exists when an entity, through past actions or current statements,
indicates it will accept certain responsibilities and as a result creates a valid expectation on
the part of other parties that it will discharge those responsibilities.
4. An onerous contract exists when the unavoidable costs of meeting the obligation of the
contract exceed the economic benefits expected to be received from it. An onerous contract
must be recognized as a provision with an offsetting decrease in net income.
5. Under IAS 19, the net amount recognized as a defined pension benefit liability (or asset) is
measured as:
+ Present value of the defined benefit obligation (PVDBO)
- Fair value of plan assets (FVPA)
If the resulting amount is negative (net pension asset), the amount of asset to be reported
on the balance sheet is limited to the asset ceiling, which is which is the present value of
any economic benefits available in the form of refunds from the plan or reductions in future
contributions to the plan.
Under U.S. GAAP, the pension liability or asset is simply measured as:
+ Present value of the defined benefit obligation (PVDBO)
- Fair value of plan assets (FVPA)
There is no limit to the amount recognized as a net pension asset.
6. Under IAS 19, past service costs are recognized immediately in net income and actuarial
gains and losses are recognized immediately in other comprehensive income (OCI), with no
recycling to net income.

7. Compensation cost in an equity-settled share-based payment (SBP) transaction with nonemployees should be based on the fair value of the goods or services received. If this
cannot be reliably determined, then the fair value of the equity instruments should be used
to determine compensation cost.
Compensation cost in an equity-settled share-based payment (SBP) transaction with
employees should be based on the fair value of the equity instruments granted because the
fair value of the employees services generally is not reliably measurable.
8. Compensation cost associated with stock options that vest on a single date is recognized as
expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. When stock options vest in
installments, the compensation cost associated with each installment is recognized as
expense on a straight-line basis over that installments vesting period.
9. In a choice-of-settlement share-based payment (SBP) transaction in which the supplier of
goods and services has the choice, the entity has created a compound financial instrument
which must be split into its debt and equity components.
10. Income tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted should be used in
measuring current and deferred income taxes. In jurisdictions in which distributed profits are
taxed at a different rate from undistributed profits, the tax rate on undistributed profits should
be used to measure current and deferred income taxes.
11. A deferred tax asset is recognized only when it is probable that a tax benefit will be realized
in the future.
12. IAS 12 requires an explanation of the relationship between tax expense and accounting
profit using one of two approaches: (a) a numerical reconciliation between tax expense and
the product of accounting profit multiplied by the applicable tax rate, or (b) a numerical
reconciliation between the average effective tax rate and the applicable tax rate.
13. Deferred taxes are classified as noncurrent items on the balance sheet.
14. Five criteria must be met to recognize revenue from the sale of goods:
1. The significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have been transferred to the
buyer.
2. Neither continuing managerial involvement normally associated with ownership nor
effective control of the goods sold is retained.
3. The amount of revenue can be measured reliably.
4. It is probable that the economic benefits associated with the sale will flow to the seller.
5. The costs incurred or to be incurred with respect to the sale of goods can be measured
reliably.

15. Revenue from the rendering of services is recognized using either (a) the stage of
completion method or (b) the cost recovery method. The stage of completion method is
appropriate when the outcome of a service transaction (1) can be estimated reliably and (2)
it is probable that economic benefits of the transaction will flow to the enterprise; otherwise,
the cost recovery method should be used.
16. There is no gain or loss recognized when assets that are similar in nature and value are
exchanged; the asset acquired is measured at the carrying amount of the asset given up.
17. Revenue may be recognized on a bill and hold sale when:
a. It is probable that delivery will be made,
b. The item is on hand, identified, and ready for delivery to the buyer at the time the sale is
recognized,
c. The buyer specifically acknowledges the deferred delivery instructions, and
d. The usual payment terms apply.
18. A customer loyalty program provides customers with award credits at the time a purchase
is made that the customer can convert into goods and/or services when a sufficient number
of credits have been accumulated. Airline frequent flyer programs are an example. The fair
value of the consideration received on the sale that provides customers with award credits
must be allocated between the award credits and the other components of the sale. The
amount allocated to the award credits, based on their fair value, is recognized as a liability
(deferred revenue) until the award credits are redeemed.
19. The five steps to follow in revenue recognition as proposed in the IASB-FASB exposure draft
Revenue from Contracts with Customers are:
1. Identify the contract with a customer.
2. Identify the separate performance obligations in the contract.
3. Determine the transaction price.
4. Allocate the transaction price to the separate performance obligations.
5. Recognize the revenue allocated to each performance obligation when the entity
satisfies each performance obligation.
20. The four classes of financial assets are:
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVPL)
Held-to-maturity investments.
Loans and receivables.
Available-for-sale financial assets.
21. Preferred shares should be recognized as a liability on the balance sheet when they are
redeemable by the shareholder and the issuer cannot avoid the payment of cash to the
shareholders if they redeem their shares. Preferred shares that are contingently redeemable
based on future events outside the control of the issuer also should be classified as a
liability.
22. Convertible bonds are a compound financial instrument subject to split accounting. Upon
initial recognition and measurement, convertible bonds are split into their debt and equity
components using a with-and-without approach.

23. When (1) a financial instrument measured at fair value through profit or loss is hedged with
(2) a financial instrument classified as available-for-sale, the gain/loss on (1) will be reported
in net income but the gain/loss on (2) will be taken to other comprehensive income. As a
result, a net gain/loss in reported in net income that is not economically meaningful.
Adopting the fair value option for (2) removes this accounting mismatch.
24. An entity is prohibited from classifying financial instruments as held-to-maturity for two years
in this situation.
25. Bond issuance costs reduce the fair value of the bonds payable and are subtracted in
determining their initial carrying amount.
26. Debt extinguishment costs are included in the calculation of the gain/loss on debt
extinguishment, resulting in a larger loss or a smaller gain.
Debt modification costs are treated in a similar fashion to debt issuance costs; they reduce
the carrying amount of the debt being modified.
27. Derecognition of receivables in a so-called pass through arrangement is appropriate only if
each of the following criteria is met:
(a) The entity has no obligation to pay cash to the buyer of the receivables unless it collects
equivalent amounts from the receivables.
(b) The entity is prohibited by the terms of the transfer contract from selling or pledging the
receivables.
(c) The entity has an obligation to remit any cash flows it collects on the receivables to the
eventual recipient without material delay. In addition, the entity is not entitled to reinvest
such cash flows. An exception exists for investments in cash equivalents during the
short settlement period from the collection date to the date of remittance to the eventual
recipients, as long as interest earned on such investments also is passed to the eventual
recipients.

23. Updike and Patterson Investments, Inc. Income Taxes (deferred tax asset)
Year 1
The company reports an unrealized loss in other comprehensive income (OCI) in Year 1.
The journal entry is:
Unrealized loss OCI
Allowance to reduce AFS securities to market
$30,000
$30,000
The unrealized loss creates a potential deferred tax asset; if the loss is realized, the
companys tax liability will be decreased by $12,000 ($30,000 x 40%). Under IAS 12, a
deferred tax asset is recognized when it is more likely than not to be realized, which is the
case for UPI. Because the unrealized loss is reported in OCI (not income), the counterpart
to the recognition of the deferred tax asset is an increase in OCI (not income). The
unrealized loss must be reported in OCI on a net of tax basis. The following journal entry
recognizes the deferred tax asset and decreases the net amount of unrealized loss
recognized in OCI.
Deferred tax asset
Unrealized loss OCI
$12,000
$12,000
Year 2
At the end of Year 2, UPI management determines that it less than 50% likely that the
company will be able to realize the deferred tax asset related to the unrealized loss on
Available-for-Sale Investments. Therefore, the deferred tax asset recognized in Year 1 must
be decrecognized as follows:
Unrealized loss OCI

Evidence
Whether this condition is met might hinge on whether
customers pay within the 90 day credit period. The fact that
Ultima Company will deliver upon request, which could be
prior to the end of the credit period, suggests that delivery is
not contingent upon payment. Thus, one might conclude that
this criterion is met.
The goods are on hand and ready for delivery to the
customer at the time the sale is made.
The problem does not state whether the buyer specifically
acknowledges the deferred delivery instructions; however,
one might assume that this occurs when the customer
orders goods under Ultimas special discount program.
Customers are given the normal credit period (90 days)
to pay.
This problem demonstrates the process a company might follow to establish a revenue
recognition policy that is consistent with IFRS. In the real world, there would be additional
facts and circumstances to consider that could make it easier to justify a specific policy.
Assuming that Ultima can satisfy itself that criteria (a) and (c) are met, the company would
recognize revenue at the time title passes to the customer.

30. Saffron Enterprises, Inc. Available-for-Sale Financial Asset (foreign currency bonds)
Saffron Enterprises Inc has a bond investment that it has classified as available-for-sale.
Thus, changes in the fair value of the investment are recognized in other comprehensive
income. The fair value of the bond investment on January 1, Year 1 is $1,500 (1,000 euros
x $1.50). The fair value on December 31, Year 1 is $1,470 (1,050 euros x $1.40). Thus,
there is a net decrease in the carrying amount of the bond investment of $30. The question
is whether this amount should be recognized as foreign exchange loss (recognized in net
income) or change in fair value (recognized in other comprehensive income), or some
combination of the two.
IAS 39 indicates that in this situation, the foreign currency-denominated financial asset
should be treated as if it were carried at amortized cost in the foreign currency. The net
gain/loss is split into an exchange gain/loss component and a fair value change
component. An exchange gain or loss is recognized for the change in exchange rate
applied to the amortized cost of the bond:
The change in fair value in the foreign currency is then translated using the current
exchange rate:
1,050 euros 1,000 euros = 50 euros x $1.40 = $70 fair value gain

31. Spectrum Fabricators Inc. Convertible Bonds (initial recognition and interest)
Spectrum Fabricators Inc. must split the convertible bonds and the issuance costs into
separate liability and equity components. The fair value of the liability component is the
present value of future cash flows using the current market interest rate for non-convertible
bonds of 8%. The fair value of the liability component is calculated as shown below:
Present value of $20,000,000, five periods, 8% interest rate
$20,000,000 x 0.6858 = $13,611,664
Present value of an annuity of $1,200,000, five periods, 8% interest rate
$1,200,000 x 3.9927 =
4,791,252
Fair value of liability component
$18,402,916
The fair value of the equity component is the difference between the fair value of the
convertible bonds and the fair value of the liability component:
Fair value of convertible debt (selling price)
Fair value of liability component
Fair value of equity component
$20,000,000
18,402,916
$ 1,597,084
The issuance costs must be allocated to the liability and equity components based on their
relative fair values, as follows:
Liability
Equity
Total issuance costs
The journal entry to record the issuance of the convertible bonds would be as follows:
Cash ($20,000,000 $100,000)
$19,900,000
Convertible bonds payable ($18,402,916 $92,015)
$18,310,901
Additional paid-in capital ($1,597,084 $7,985)
1,589,099
Interest expense
To determine the interest expense to be recognized in Year 1 the effective interest rate must
be calculated. Excel is used to solve for the internal rate of return (IRR) where net cash
inflow is $18,310,901; payments are $1,200,000 for Years 1-4 and $21,200,000 in Year 5;
IRR = 8.122%
Interest expense in Year 1 is calculated as the carrying amount of the convertible bonds
payable multiplied by the effective interest rate: $18,310,901 x 8.122% = $1,487,218

For equity-settled SBP transactions, the services received and equity recognized is
measured at the fair value of the equity instrument at grant date. Because the fair value of
the equity component for Stone is zero, there is no compensation expense recognized
related to the equity component.

The entry at 12/31/Y2 is the same as at 12/31/Y1 because the share price and therefore the
fair value of the cash alternative has not changed.
Calculation of Compensation Expense for Year 3
At December 31, Year 3, the FV of each option is equal to its intrinsic value of $9.00 ($47
fair value $38 exercise price). The FV of the liability is $9,000 ($9.00 x 1,000). The total
compensation expense is $6,300 ($9,000 x 70%). The amount to be recognized as expense
in Year 3 is $ ($6,300 $1,867 $1,867).

Part B.
Under this scenario, employees receive a 10% discount on the exercise price if they choose
to settle in shares of stock. As a result, the equity-settlement alternative has a larger fair
value than the cash-settlement alternative, and therefore, the equity component has a value
greater than zero.
Calculation of Fair Value of Stock Options at Grant Date
FV of cash alternative at grant date is $6,000 (1,000 x $6.00)
FV of equity alternative at grant date is $8,800 (1,000 x $8.80)
FV of the equity component is $2,800 ($8,800 $6,000).
Fair value of the compound instrument at grant date is $8,800 ($6,000 + $2,800).
Calculation of Compensation Expense for Year 1
Compensation expense related to the debt component in Year 1 is $1,867 (same as in Part
A).
The FV of the equity component is not remeasured at each balance sheet date.
Compensation expense related to the equity component in Year 1 is $653 [($2,800 x
70%)/3].
Total compensation expense for Year 1 is $2,520 [$1,867 + $653].

Note: Because the FV of the equity component is not remeasured at each balance sheet
date, the amount of compensation expense related to the equity component will be $653 in
Year 1, Year 2, and Year 3.

IFRS
Bank overdrafts are netted against cash rather
than being recognized as a liability when
overdrafts are a normal part of cash
management.
Uncertain legal obligations, but not constructive
obligations, contingent upon a future event are
recognized as liabilities when certain criteria are
met.
A defined benefit pension liability is measured as
the excess of the present value of the defined
benefit obligation (PVDBO) over the fair value of
plan assets (FVPA).
Actuarial gains and losses in a defined benefit
pension plan are amortized to net income over a
period of time.
The compensation cost associated with graded
vesting stock options is amortized to expense on
a straight-line basis over the vesting period.
The minimum amount recognized as
compensation expense on a stock option plan is
the compensation cost as measured at the grant
date; even if a subsequent modification to the
plan decreases the total compensation cost.
Deferred taxes are classified as current or noncurrent based on the classification of the related
asset or liability.
The stage of completion method is used to
recognize revenue from service transactions
when specified criteria are met.
Non-redeemable preferred shares are classified
as a liability on the balance sheet.
Costs associated with the issuance of debt are
amortized on a straight-line basis over the life of
the debt.

Restructuring. Under U.S. GAAP, the restructuring is not recognized in 2015 because a legal
obligation does not yet exist.
Under IAS 37, a restructuring provision and offsetting expense in the amount of $300,000 would
be recognized in 2015 because a constructive obligation does exist.
IFRS income would be $300,000 less that U.S. GAAP income in 2015, and stockholders equity
at year-end 2015 under IFRS would be less than under U.S. GAAP by the same amount.
Pension Plan. Under IAS 19, the past service cost of $60,000 would have been expensed
immediately in 2013, with an offsetting decrease in stockholders equity of $60,000.
