BASEL II: Three Pillars : 1st Pillar: Minimum Capital Standard (to be complied with by bank)
2nd Pillar: Supervisory Review (to be carried by RBI based on ICAAP &SREP)
3rd Pillar: Market Discipline.
BASEL III
The Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS) has issued comprehensive reform packages entitled "Basel III: A global regulatory framework for more
resilient banks and banking systems" and "Basel III: International framework for liquidity risk measurement, standard and monitoring" in December 2010. A
summary of Basel III capital requirements is given below:
Improving the Quality, Consistency and Transparency of the Capital Base: Presently, a bank's capital comprises Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital with a
restriction that Tier 2 capital cannot be more than 100% of Tier 1 capital. Within Tier 1 capital, innovative instruments are limited to 15% of Tier 1
capital. Further, Perpetual Non-Cumulative Preference Shares along with Innovative Ter 1 instruments should not exceed 40% of total Tier 1. capital at
any point of lime. Within Tier 2 capital, subordinated debt is limited to a maximum of 50% of Tier 1 capital. However, under Basel III, with a view to
improving the quality of capital, the Tier 1 capital will predominantly consist of Common Equity. At present, the regulatory adjustments (i.e. deductions
and prudential filters) to capital vary across jurisdictions. These adjustments are currently generally applied to total Tier 1 capital or to a combination of
Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital. They are not generally applied to the Common Equity component of Ter 1 capital. Most of the adjustments under Basel III will
be made from Common Equity. The important modifications include the following:
(I) deduction from capital in respect of shortfall in provisions to expected losses under Internal Ratings Based (IRB) approach for computing capital for
credit risk should be made from Common Equity component of Tier 1 capital;
cumulative unrealized gains or losses due to change in own credit risk on fair valued financial liabilities, if recognized, should be filtered out
from Common Equity;
shortfall in defined benefit pension fund should be deducted from Common Equity;
certain regulatory adjustments which are currently required to be deducted 50% from Tier 1 and 50% from Tier 2 capital, instead will receive
1250% risk weight; and
limited recognition will be granted in regard to minority interest in banking subsidiaries and investments in capital of certain other financial
entities.
The transparency. of capital base will be improved, with all elements of capital required to be disclosed along with a detailed reconciliation to
the published accounts.
Enhancing Risk Coverage: At present, the counterparty credit risk in the trading book covers only the risk of default of the counterparty. The reform
package includes an additional capital charge for Credit Value Adjustment (CVA) risk which captures risk of mark-to-market losses due to deterioration in
the credit worthiness of a counterparty. The risk of interconnectedness among larger financial firms (defined as having total assets greater than or equal to
$100 billion) will be better captured through a prescription of 25% adjustment to the asset value correlation (AVC) under IRB approaches to credit risk. In
addition, the guidelines on counterparty credit risk management with regard to collateral, margin period of risk and central counterparties and counterparty
credit risk management requirements have been strengthened.
Enhancing the Total Capital Requirement and Phase-in Period: The minimum Common Equity, Tier 1 and Total Capital requirement will
be phased in between Jan 1, 2013 and Jan 1, 2015 as indicated below:
April 1, 2013 Jan 1, 2014 Jan 1, 2015
Min Common Equity 3.50% 4.00% 4.50%
Min Tier I 4.50% 5.50% 6.00%
Min Total Capital 8.00% 8.00% 8.00%
Capital Conservation Buffer: The capital conservation buffer (CCB) is designed to ensure that banks build up capital buffers during normal times (i.e.
outside periods of stress) which can be drawn down as fosses are incurred during a stressed period. The requirement is based on simple capital conservation
rules designed to avoid breaches of minimum capital requirements. Therefore; in addition to the minimum total of 8% as indicated above, banks will be
required to hold a capital conservation buffer of 2.5% of RWAs in the form of Common Equity to withstand future periods of stress bringing
G-99-A
the total Common Equity requirement of 7% of RWAs and total capital to RWAs to 10.5%. The capital conservation buffer in the form of
Common Equity will be phased-in over a period of four years in a uniform manner of 0.625% per year, commencing from January 1, 2016.
Countercyclical Capital Buffer: further, a counter cyclical buffer within a range of 0 - 2.5% of Common Equity or other fully loss absorbing capital will
be implemented according to national circumstances. The purpose of counter cyclical capital buffer is to achieve the broader macro-prudential goal of
protecting the banking sector from periods of excess aggregate credit growth. For any given country, this buffer will only be in effect when there is excess
credit growth that results in a system-wide build up of risk. The countercyclical capital buffer, when in effect, would be introduced as an extension of the
capital conservation buffer range.
Supplementing the Risk-based Capital Requirement with a Leverage Ratio: One of the underlying features of the crisis was the build-up of excessive
on and off-balance sheet leverage in the banking system. Subsequently, the banking sector was forced to reduce its leverage in a manner that not only
amplified downward pressure on asset prices, but also exacerbated the positive feedback loop between losses, declines in bank capital and contraction in
credit availability. Therefore, under Basel III, a simple, transparent, non-risk based regulatory leverage ratio has been introduced. Thus, the capital
requirements will be supplemented by a non-risk based leverage ratio which is proposed to be calibrated with a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 3% (the Basel
Committee will further explore to track a leverage ratio using total capital and tangible common equity). The ratio will be captured with all assets and off
balance'sheet (OBS) items at their credit conversion factors and derivatives with Basel II netting rules and a simple measure of potential future exposure
(using Current Exposure Method under Basel II framework).
Guidelines on Implementation of Basel III Capital Regulations in India: RBI has rescheduled the start date of implementation of Basel HI capital
regulations to April 1, 2013 from January 1, 2013. In view of the shift in the start date of Basel III implementation, all instructions applicable as on January 1,
2013, except those relating to Credit Valuation Adjustment (CVA) risk capital charge for OTC derivatives, would become effective from April 1, 2013 with
banks disclosing Basel III capital ratios from the quarter ending June 30, 2013. As the introduction of mandatory forex forward guaranteed settlement
through a central counterparty has been deferred pending resolution of certain issues such as exposure norms, etc., the CVA risk capital charges would
Sum of the Years Digits method of depreciation:- under this method total useful life of the asset is ascertained. Then the totals
of the year figures are added. For example is an asset has useful life of 5 years the sum of years will be 5+4+3+2+1 i.e. 15. In the
first year the amount of depreciation will be 5/15 of the value of asset, in the second year it will be 4/15, in the third year 3/15 and
so on.
Accounting Standard 9 (AS=9) applies to Depreciation. As per this standard, the method of depreciation charged by a firm
should be consistent. Any change in the method of depreciaiton is treated as a change in an accounting policy and is disclosed
accordingly.
FOREIGN EXCHANGE ARITHMETIC
Direct and Indirect Quote: A direct quote is the home currency price of one unit of the foreign currency, e.g. US$ 1 = Rs. 42.8450. An
indirect quote is the foreign currency price of one unit of the home currency, e.g. Re.l = US$ 0.0227.
Cross Rate: If rate of currency A is known in terms of currency B and rate of currency B is known in terms of currecy C,we can derive
the rate of currency A in terms of currency C by cross-multiplication.
Chain Rule: The above concept of cross rate is called Chain Rule and can be used in finding the rate of a currency A in terms of other
currencies, through cross-multiplications, eventhough the quote of currency A in terms of that currency is not available in the market.
Value date: The value date is a date on which the exchange of currencies actually takes place.
Types of Rates: Depending on the value date, the exchange rates can be; Cash/Ready, TOM, SPOT, or Forward.
Premium: In case of direct rates, if the forward rate is more than the spot rate, the base currency is called as being at a premium.
Discount: In case of direct rates, if the forward rate is less than the spot rate, the base currency is called as being at a discount.
Forward Points: The forward premium or discount, expressed in percentage points, is called Forward Points, e.g. a forward premium of
0.0150 is referred to as premium of 150 points.
Arbitrage: Arbitrage is an operation by which one can make risk free profits by undertaking offsetting transactions.
(i) Foreign exchange transactions in India are governed under Foreign Exchange Management (FEMA), 1999. Rates are quoted in
two ways. First method is called Direct' while the other is referred to as 'Indirect'. When unit of foreign currency is fixed and the rate
is expressed by varying the Indian rupees (INR) it is called Direct Rate e.g. I USD= INR 45.20-45.30.When INR is fixed and the rate
is expressed by varying the amount of foreign currency it is called indirect Rate e.g. INR 100= USD 2.25- 2.20
(ii) In case of Direct Quotation the principle followed is "Buy low, Sell high" While.in Indirect quotation the principle gets reversed
"Buy high, Sell low"
Which in fact stands for buying more foreign currency for INR 100 and selling less the same INR 100.
(iii) Cross rate is derived when rate of one foreign currency in terms of INR is 'known and we have to calculate value of other foreign
currency in terms of INR. For example, if 1 USD= INR 45 and 1 Euro = 1.60 USD, the rate of Euro in terms of INR will be 1 Euro =
1.60 USD or 1.60 X 45 i.e. INR 72.00 This way of calculating rate from rate of another currency is called Cross Rate.
(iv) Value Date Is the date on which exchange of foreign currencies actually takes place. Based on this concept, transaction based
rates are:
(a) Cash or Ready Rate: It is applied when exchange of currencies takes place on the day of the contract. Normally this rate is
applied to transactions between customers and the banks.
(b) Tom Rate: It is applied when settlement or exchange of currencies takes place on the next business day of the contract.
(c) Spot Rate: It is applied when settlement or exchange of currencies takes place on the second business day of the contract.
Most of the transactions between dealers are based on spot rates.
(d) Forward Rates: It is applied when settlement or exchange of currencies takes place beyond second business day of the
contract. In fact, forward transactions are resorted to by banks and parties as insurance cover against wild fluctuations in exchange
rates. When a currency is quoting higher in future than in cash or spot deal, it is said to be trading at premium and when it is quoted
lower in future it is said to be trading at a discount.
Purposes and Objectives of Accounting : (I ) Keeping a systematic record of transactions (ii)Ascertaining results of business operations
(iii)Ascertaining financial position of he business (iv)Facilitating rational decision making (v) Satisfying requirements of law.
Origin of Accounting PrincipIes : The Greeks, Egyptians and Babylonians had well developed records and maintained a good system of record
keeping and control. The concept of Double Entry book keeping took birth in Italy in the 13th and 14th centuries. Luca De Bargo Pacioll an
Italian monk published his book 'Summa'. It contained a section on Double Ent-iy Book Keeping which is still in use the world over. In India also
Kautilya a minister of king Chandragupta wrote 'Arthashastra'.
an accounting period it is shown as expenditure otherwise it is recorded as an asset. Under this concept fixed assets are valued at cost and not
market value; current assets are valued at lower of cost or market price; reserves and provisions are created for any future liability; deferred
revenue expenditures are written off over a number of years.
Dual Aspect Concept: According to this concept every transaction has double effect. If a trader starts a business with a capital of Rs 2,00,000
the business acquires assets worth the amount while the business owes Rs 2,00,000 to the trader as liability in the form of capital. Every
transaction results in credit to one account and simultaneous debit to the other account. This concept is the basis for accounting equation Assets
= Capital+ Liabilties
Matching Concept: According to this concept income and expenditure relevant to a particular period must be matched. If some expense has not yet
been incurred but is relevant to the period it must be provided for. Under this concept all adjustments regarding prepaid expenses, outstanding
expenses are made in the final Accounts. Likewise, the concept of deferred revenue expenditure arises due this concept.
Historical Cost Concept: According to this concept transactions4areffecorc6d as and when they take place and it creates historical records of all
transactions.
Accounting Period Concept: According to this concept all businesses have to report the results of their operations after a particular period which is
referred to Accounting period. All expenses whether paid for or not but relevant to the s accounting period must be provided for. Likewise, all
incomes relevant to the period whether received in cash or not must be accounted for
What is Bank Reconciliation? When a trader maintains a bank account with a bank, he is issued account statement or pass-book. It reflects the position of
the trader's account with the bank as appearing in the books of the banker. Likewise, the trader enters all transactions in the bank column of the cash book
maintained with him. As soon as the trader deposits a cheque received from his client he will debit the bank account in his cash book whereas the
passbook will reflect this entry only when the cheque is realized which may take 2-3 or even more days. Similarly When the trader issues a cheque in
favour of someone he will immediately credit the bank account in his cash book whereas pass-book will reflect this entry only'wlien the cheque is actually
paid by the bank. On account of these factors and'SeveraLother transactions, normally the balance as reflected by the trader's cash book and the one
reflected in the pass-book will show a difference. There is imperative need to tally the two. This process of tallying or reconciling is called Bank reconciliation.
Items which cause differences between cash book and pass books balances: Cheques issued but not presented for payment ,Cheques lodged for
collection but not realized till date of reconciliation, Bank charges for issue of cheque books, cheque returning charges, standing instructions
charges, cheque collection charge which may not have been entered in the cash book, Interest on savings account which may not have been
accounted for by the depositor, Interest on overdraft charged by the bank which may not have been entered in the cash book, Amount
paid/collected as per customers standing instructions entries for which may not have been made in the cash book, Dishonour of a cheque,
Errors
Trial Balance: Trial balance defined as a statement showing debit and credit balances taken from ledger including cash and bank balance as on
a particular date. Its main purpose is to establish arithmetical accuracy of transactions recorded in the books of accounts. It is usually
prepared at the end of the year but can be prepared on monthly quarterly or half yearly basis also. It helps in preparation of final accounts
Non Tallying of Trial Balance and Classification of Errors: Trial balance may not tally because of certain errors committed. These errors may
be of following types :
Error of Omission: When a transaction is omitted to be recorded in the books of account. it is called error of omission. If both debit and
credit entries are not recorded, it is called error of complete omission and it will not affect trial balance. .However, when either credit or
debit is omitted to be recorded it is called error of partial omission and will result in non., tallying of trial balance.
Errors of commission: When an error is committed while recording the transaction with wrong amount or posted to the wrong side it is called
error of commission. Compensating Errors: When one mistake nullifies the wrong effect of another error or errors, they are called compensating
errors and balance each other. These errors are normally arithmetical errors.
Deferred Revenue Expenditure: This is basically revenue expenditure where entire expense is not charged off to profit and to count and
is deferred as the benefit of such expenditure is likely to accrue to the company for more than one year. Heavy advertisement expenditure
for launching a new product, expenditure for raising debentures or capital and expenditure for formation or registration of a Company come
under deferred revenue expenditure.
I n v e n t o r y V a l u a t i o n : I n v e n t o r y m e a n s stock and includes raw material, semi finished goods and finished goods. Ther-e are
several methods of valuation of stock. Important of these are First in first out (FIFO), Last in first out (LIFO), Average cost method. Under FIFO
goods issued to production /sale is usually the earliest lot on hand. The stock on hard hand consists of the latest consignment. Under LIFO goods
issued to production / sale is according to the latest consignments on hand. Under the Average cost method prices of different lots are added and
divided by the number of pieces. The closing stock is valued according to the price ascertained.
Bills of Extchange: Section 5 of the Negotiable Instruments Act,1881 defines a bill of exchange as an instrument in writing containing an
unconditional order signed by the maker and directing another person to pay a certain sum of money only to or to the order of a certain person or
the bearer of the instrument. The person who signs the order is called 'Drawer ; the person who is required to meet the order of the drawer is
called Drawee and the person who is to receive the payment is called 'Payee'. Though as per provisions of NI Act, 1881 bill of exchange can be
drawn payable to bearer yet under Section 31 of RBI Act, 1934 no person other than RBI, Central Govt. or any person/ institution authorized by-
RBI/Govt. can issue bill of exchange payable to bearer. In a trade transaction the supplier of the goods on credit will make an unconditional order
(bill of exchange) directing the receiver of the goods to pay the amount to a person called payee. Alternatively, the buyer of the goods can make
out a promissory note giving unconditional promise to pay a certain sum of money to the supplier of the goods or to his order. Section 4 of NI Act,
1881 defines promissory' note as unconditional undertaking to pay a certain sum of money on demand or after a certain specified period. As the
promissory note Is signed by the buyer of the goods or receiver of the consideration it does not require any acceptance. If dishonoured on due date,
noting of promissory note is not required. In a bill of exchange transaction, the bill must first be accepted by the drawee. As per provisions of the NI Act,
1881, a drawee is allowed 48 hours excluding public holidays to consider whether he will accept the bill or not. In case of usance bills of exchange he will be
required to pay the amount on due date. In calculating the due date three days of grace are allowed as per section 22 of the NI Act. Under section 25 of the
same Act if a bill of exchange matures on a public holiday, it will be deemed to be due on the immediate next preceding business day. In case bill of
exchange is dishonoured it may be required to be noted through notary public. As of now in case of inland bills noting is not compulsory.

t
Accommodation Bill: It is a bill of exchange which is accepted by one party on whom it is drawn without any consideration but only to mutually help each
other it is called accommodation bill. Normally these bills. are for round amount and are drawn by two parties mutually on each other without transacting any
business.
Consignment Account: 1. The dispatch or sending of goods by the owner to an agent for selling is called consignment. The owner who sends the goods is
called Consignor and the agent who sells the goods is called Consignee.
Difference between Sale and Consignments:
1 Property in the goods is transferred to buyer i.e. he becomes Owner of goods The goods remain the property of the sender i.e. consignor.
2 The buyer can sell the goods at his sweet will. The Consignee can sell the goods as per instructions of the consignor.
3 The entire risk goods is transferred to the buyer The consignor being only an agent of the consignor does not bear risk
4 The buyer can not return the goods to the seller The consignee may return the goods to the consignor if he thinks the
goods are not marketable.
The seller sends a statements called sale invoice. The consignor sends a statement giving details of goods etc. It is
5,.: ;. Called Proforma invoice
Acount Sale: The wholesaler or manufacturer sends his goods to consignee for sale1t!,an indicated price. The consignee is reimbursed expenses for
selling the goods and commission for selling the goods. The consignee prepares an account giving details of sales made, expenses incurred a,
commission due to him and the balance payable to the consignor. It is called Account Sale.
Commission payable to Consignee: It is of two types. (I) Ordinary commission which is a fixed percent of total sales effected by the consignee. Any bad
and doubtful debts have to be provided for by the consignor. (ii) Del Credere is an extra commission, over and above the ordinary commission for sales on
credit. All losses on account of bad debts, expenses on sale have to be borne by the consignee. ,
Entries in the books of the consignor : i. For goods sent on consignment at cost or invoice price

ii For expenses incurred by the consignor-
Consignment a/c Dr
To Bank
(iii) For expenses incurred and commission payable to consignee-

To Consignment a/c (for loss)
Joint Venture: It is a commercial undertaking Or two -more persons distinct from a partnership for a particular project. Its feature are (i)
agreement for a particular job (ii) the agreement is over as soon as the project is completed.
Final accounts from receipt & payments account: (a )Deduct receipts pertaining to the previous year or future period from the total receipts
and add amount receivable but not received to arrive at income relevant to the entire period. Likewise, reduce payments pertaining to the
previous year or future period from the total payments and add amount payable but not actually paid to arrive at expenditure relevant to the
current period.
(b) Any amount received in respect of the previous year will be shown as an asset in the opening balance sheet and that received in
advance as a liability in the closing balance sheet.
(c) Revenue payments for the previous period will appear on the liabilities side of the opening balance sheet while any payments for the
future period will appear as prepaid expenses in the closing balance-sheet.
Depreciation Accounting That part of the cost of fixed asset to its owner which is not recoverable when the asset is finally put out of use
by him. Provision against this loss of capital is an integral cost of conducting the business during the effective commercial life of the fixed asset and is
called 'Depreciation'. In other words, depreciation is an operating cost. There are two popular methods of Depreciation Accounting. These are:
Straight Line Method- In this method the amount of depreciation is a fixed percentage of original cost of the asset. It is calculated as
under: Depreciation= (Cost price of the asset- Scrap value) / Estimated life of the asset
Written Down Value Method- In this method , the percentage of depreciation each year is fixed but it applies to the value at which the fixed
asset stands in the books at the beginning of the year. In other words, with each passing year the amount of depreciation charged goes on
-
diminishing or reducing. Hence this rnethod is also called Reducing balance method of depreciation.
Ratio Analysis:
For the purpose of analysis, financial ratios are classified in four broad heads namely liquidity, solvency, activity and
profitability ratios.
Liquidity ratios are calculated to ascertain the capability of the unit to meet current liabilities in the short run out of realisation of current assets. In this
category the following ratios are computed:
