Question 131 pts
Which statement is incorrect regarding reclassification of financial assets?
Group of answer choices
All reclassifications out of FVTOCI measurement category result in ‘reclassification
adjustment’. Commented [YG8]: SURE
The effective interest rate and the measurement of expected credit losses are not
adjusted as a result of the reclassification from AC measurement category to FVTOCI
and vice versa.
Reclassifications to FVTPL measurement category result to amounts recognized in
profit or loss.
The effective interest rate is determined on the basis of the fair value of the asset at
the reclassification date when an entity reclassifies a financial asset out of FVTPL
measurement category.
A financial asset is recognized when, and only when, the entity obtains control of the
instrument and has the ability to dispose of the financial asset independent of the
actions of others.
A financial asset is recognized when, and only when, it is probable that future
economic benefits will flow to the entity and the cost or value of the instrument can be
measured reliably.
A financial asset is recognized when, and only when, the entity becomes a party to
the contractual provisions of the instrument.
