Using Derivatives as Hedges
A hedge can
 Shift risk of fluctuations in sales prices,
costs, interest rates, or currency exchange
rates
 Help manage costs
 Reduce risks to improve financial position
 Produce tax benefits
 Help avoid bankruptcy

13-3
Hedge Accounting
At inception, document
 The relationship between hedged item and
derivative instrument
 The risk management objective and
strategy for the hedge
 Hedging instrument
 Hedged item
 Nature of risk being hedged
 Means of assessing effectiveness
13-4
Hedge Effectiveness
To qualify for hedge accounting, the derivative
instrument must be highly effective in offsetting
gains or losses in the item being hedged.
Effectiveness considers
 Nature of the underlying variable
 Notional amount of the derivative
 Item being hedged
 Delivery date of derivative
 Settlement date of the underlying
If critical terms are identical, effectiveness is
assumed. Copyright ©2012 Pearson Education,
13-5
Example of Effectiveness
Item to be hedged
 Accounts payable
 Due January 1, 2012
 For delivery of 10,000 euros
 Variable is the changing value of euros
Hedge instrument
 Forward contract
 To accept delivery of 10,000 euros
 On January 1, 2012

13-6
Statistical Analysis
If critical terms of item to be hedged and
hedge instrument do not match,
statistical analysis can determine
effectiveness.
 Regression analysis
 Correlation analysis
Example
 Using derivatives based on heating oil or
crude oil to hedge jet fuel costs

Accounting for Derivatives and Hedging Activities
1: CASH FLOW HEDGE

13-8
Cash Flow Hedge
A Cash Flow Hedge is used

for anticipated or forecasted
transactions where there is
risk of variability in future
cash flows.

13-9
Accounting for Cash Flow Hedge
A Cash Flow Hedge is
 recorded at cost
 adjusted to fair value at each reporting date
 accounted for in Other Comprehensive
Income (OCI) when there are gains or
losses
When the forecasted transaction impacts
the income statement
 Reclassify OCI to the hedged revenue or
expense account
13-10
2: FAIR VALUE HEDGE

13-11
Fair Value Hedge
A Fair Value Hedge is used for

an asset or liability position,
or firm purchase or sale
commitment, where there is a
risk of variability in the value
of the position.
13-12
Accounting for a Fair Value
Hedge
Both the item being hedged and the
derivative are
 adjusted to fair value at each
reporting date
 accounted for immediately in
income with offsetting gains or
losses

13-13
3: HEDGE ACCOUNTING

13-14
Cash Flow Hedge: Example 1
Utility anticipates purchasing oil for sale to its
customers next February. On December 1,
Utility enters into a futures contract to acquire
4,200 gallons of oil at $1.4007 per gallon for
delivery on January 31. A margin of $10 is to be
paid up front.
 On December 31, the price for delivery of oil
on January 31 is $1.4050.
 On January 31, the spot rate for current
delivery is $1.3995.
Utility settles the contract, accepting delivery of
4,200 gallons of Copyright
oil. ©2012 Pearson Education,
13-15
Cash Flow Hedge: Example 1 (cont.)
In February, Utility sells all the oil to its
customers for $8,400 and reclassifies its OCI
from the hedge as cost of sales. Pertinent
rates:
12/1 12/31 1/31
Futures rate, for 1/31 $1.4007 $1.4050 $1.3995
Cost of 4,200 barrels $5,882.94 $5,901.00 $5,877.90
Change in futures contract to 12/31 = $18.06
Change in futures contract to 1/31 = ($23.10)
The loss on the contract is ($5.04) OCI, and this
serves to increase Cost of Sales.

of the oil based on the futures contract signed on

Cash Flow Hedge: Example 2
On 12/2/11, Winkler anticipates purchasing
equipment on 3/1/12 with payment on that date of
£500,000. On 12/2/11, Winkler signs a 90-day
forward contract to buy £500,000 for $1.68 (the
spot rate is $1.70).
The $10,000 contract discount will be amortized
to Exchange Gain over three months using the
effective interest method. Implied interest is:
 PV = 1.70(500,000) = $850,000
 FV = 1.68(500,000) = $840,000
 Period = 3 months
 Monthly rate using Excel =rate(nper,pmt,pv,fv)
=rate(3,0,850000,-840000)
Result: 0.003937

The contract will be adjusted to its discounted fair

or 1% monthly), discounting for the remaining
contract life.

Fair Value Hedge: Example 3
Utility has accumulated 10,000 barrels of oil in
inventory that it will not sell until the later winter
months. Utility wants to maintain the value of the
inventory which is recorded at cost of $85 per
barrel, in the event that the price of oil falls
before they are able to sell it. On November 1,
Utility enters into a futures contract to sell the oil
for $90 a barrel in three months.
The contract will be settled net.

13-23
Fair Value Hedge: Example 3 (cont.)
 The market price of the oil is $92 per barrel at
December 31.
 The estimated value of the forward contract on
December 31 is a liability of the $2 per barrel
difference between our contracted price and the
market price. The liability is measured as
$20,000 / (1.01), or $19,802, assuming a 1% per
month interest rate.
 On January 31, the spot price is $89 and Utility
settles the contract by receiving $10,000, or ($90-
$89) x 10,000 barrels.

13-26
Fair Value Hedge Example: Liability
Cary purchases equipment costing
200,000 yen on 12/2/11 with payment due
on 1/30/12.
On 12/2/11 Cary enters a forward contract
to purchase 200,000 yen on 1/30/12 at the
forward contract rate of $0.0095.
Date Spot rate Acct Pay Forward rate Cont Rec
12/2 $0.0094 $1,880 $0.0095 $1,900
12/31 $0.0092 $1,840 $0.0093 $1,860
1/30 $0.0098 $1,960 $0.0098 $1,960

13-27
Fair Value Hedge: Liability (cont.)
Accounts payable:
 Gain of $40 for December
 Loss of $120 for January
Contract receivable:
 Loss of $40 for December
 Gain of $100 for January
Total exchange loss on the transaction = ($20)
 The net gain/loss for December = $0.
 The net loss for January = ($20)
Spread between the spot and forward rate on
12/2 determines the total loss, e.g., the cost of
hedging.
