INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Overview
An intangible asset is an asset that is not physical in nature. Goodwill, brand recognition
and intellectual property, such as patents, trademarks, and copyrights, are all intangible assets.
Intangible assets exist in opposition to tangible assets, which include land, vehicles, equipment,
and inventory.
An intangible asset can be classified as either indefinite or definite. A company's brand
name is considered an indefinite intangible asset because it stays with the company for as long
as it continues operations. An example of a definite intangible asset would be a legal agreement
to operate under another company's patent, with no plans of extending the agreement. The
agreement thus has a limited life and is classified as a definite asset. While an intangible asset
does not have the obvious physical value of a factory or equipment, it can prove valuable for a
firm and be critical to its long-term success or failure.

Module Objectives
After successful completion of this module, you should be able to:
❖ understand the nature of intangibles per IAS 38;
❖ account for the acquisition and amortization of intangibles;
❖ account for subsequent expenditures affecting intangibles;
❖ understand accounting for research and development costs;
❖ recognize impairment of intangible assets (IAS 36);
❖ learn the internal control measures over intangible assets;
❖ determine how and at what amount intangibles are presented on the statement of financial
position; and
❖ identify the required disclosures for intangible assets.
Course Materials

NATURE OF INTANGIBLE ASSETS


Intangible asset: an identifiable non-monetary asset without physical substance. An asset
is a resource that is controlled by the entity as a result of past events (for example, purchase or
self-creation) and from which future economic benefits (inflows of cash or other assets) are
expected. [IAS 38.8] Thus, the three critical attributes of an intangible asset are:
• identifiability
• control (power to obtain benefits from the asset)
• future economic benefits (such as revenues or reduced future costs)
Identifiability: an intangible asset is identifiable when it: [IAS 38.12]
• is separable (capable of being separated and sold, transferred, licensed, rented, or
exchanged, either individually or together with a related contract) or
• arises from contractual or other legal rights, regardless of whether those rights are
transferable or separable from the entity or from other rights and obligations.

ACQUISITION OF INTANGIBLE ASSETS


IAS 38 requires an entity to recognize an intangible asset, whether purchased or self-
created (at cost) if, and only if: [IAS 38.21]

ACCO 20093: INTERMEDIATE ACCOUNTING 2 3


2nd Sem A.Y.2020-2021
• it is probable that the future economic benefits that are attributable to the asset will flow to
the entity;
• and the cost of the asset can be measured reliably.
This requirement applies whether an intangible asset is acquired externally or generated
internally. IAS 38 includes additional recognition criteria for internally generated intangible assets.
The probability of future economic benefits must be based on reasonable and supportable
assumptions about conditions that will exist over the life of the asset. [IAS 38.22] The probability
recognition criterion is always considered to be satisfied for intangible assets that are acquired
separately or in a business combination. [IAS 38.33]
If recognition criteria not met. If an intangible item does not meet both the definition of and
the criteria for recognition as an intangible asset, IAS 38 requires the expenditure on this item to
be recognized as an expense when it is incurred. [IAS 38.68]

Research and development costs


Charge all research cost to expense. [IAS 38.54] Development costs are capitalized only
after technical and commercial feasibility of the asset for sale or use have been established. This
means that the entity must intend and be able to complete the intangible asset and either use it
or sell it and be able to demonstrate how the asset will generate future economic benefits. [IAS
38.57]
If an entity cannot distinguish the research phase of an internal project to create an
intangible asset from the development phase, the entity treats the expenditure for that project as
if it were incurred in the research phase only.

In-process research and development acquired in a business combination


A research and development project acquired in a business combination is recognized as
an asset at cost, even if a component is research. Subsequent expenditure on that project is
accounted for as any other research and development cost (expensed except to the extent that
the expenditure satisfies the criteria in IAS 38 for recognizing such expenditure as an intangible
asset). [IAS 38.34]

Internally generated brands, mastheads, titles, lists


Brands, mastheads, publishing titles, customer lists and items similar in substance that
are internally generated should not be recognized as assets. [IAS 38.63]

Computer software
Purchased: capitalize Operating system for hardware: include in hardware cost Internally
developed (whether for use or sale): charge to expense until technological feasibility, probable
future benefits, intent and ability to use or sell the software, resources to complete the software,
and ability to measure cost. Amortization: over useful life, based on pattern of benefits (straight-
line is the default).

Certain other defined types of costs


The following items must be charged to expense when incurred:
• internally generated goodwill [IAS 38.48]
• start-up, pre-opening, and pre-operating costs [IAS 38.69]
• training cost [IAS 38.69]
• advertising and promotional cost, including mail order catalogues [IAS 38.69]
• relocation costs [IAS 38.69]
Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. [IAS 38.24]

ACCO 20093: INTERMEDIATE ACCOUNTING 2 4


2nd Sem A.Y.2020-2021
SUBSEQUENT RECOGNITION
An entity must choose either the cost model or the revaluation model for each class of
intangible asset. [IAS 38.72]

Cost Model
After initial recognition intangible assets should be carried at cost less accumulated
amortization and impairment losses. [IAS 38.74]

Revaluation Model
Intangible assets may be carried at a revalued amount (based on fair value) less any
subsequent amortization and impairment losses only if fair value can be determined by reference
to an active market. [IAS 38.75] Such active markets are expected to be uncommon for intangible
assets. [IAS 38.78]
Under the revaluation model, revaluation increases are recognized in other comprehensive
income and accumulated in the "revaluation surplus" within equity except to the extent that they
reverse a revaluation decrease previously recognized in profit and loss. If the revalued intangible
has a finite life and is, therefore, being amortized (see below) the revalued amount is amortized.
[IAS 38.85]

Classification of intangible assets based on useful life


Intangible assets are classified as: [IAS 38.88]
• Indefinite life: no foreseeable limit to the period over which the asset is expected to
generate net cash inflows for the entity.
• Finite life: a limited period of benefit to the entity.
Intangible assets with finite lives
The cost less residual value of an intangible asset with a finite useful life should be
amortized on a systematic basis over that life: [IAS 38.97]
The amortization method should reflect the pattern of benefits. If the pattern cannot be
determined reliably, amortize by the straight-line method. The amortization charge is recognized
in profit or loss unless another IFRS requires that it be included in the cost of another asset. The
amortization period should be reviewed at least annually. [IAS 38.104]
An intangible asset with an indefinite useful life should not be amortized. [IAS 38.107] Its
useful life should be reviewed each reporting period to determine whether events and
circumstances continue to support an indefinite useful life assessment for that asset. If they do
not, the change in the useful life assessment from indefinite to finite should be accounted for as
a change in an accounting estimate. [IAS 38.109]
The asset should also be assessed for impairment in accordance with IAS 36. [IAS 38.111]

What amount should be reported as intangible asset?

Problem 3
During 2019, Latte Inc., spent P5,000,000 developing its new “Hyperion” software package. Of
this amount, P2,200,000 was spent before technological feasibility was established for the
product, which is to be marketed to third parties. The package was completed at December 31,

ACCO 20093: INTERMEDIATE ACCOUNTING 2 6


2nd Sem A.Y.2020-2021
2019. Latte expects a useful life of 8 years for this product with total revenues of P16,000,000.
During the first year (2020), Latte realizes revenues of P3,200,000.

a. What journal entries should have been prepared by the accountant in 2019 for the
foregoing facts?
b. Prepare the entry to record amortization at December 31, 2020.

Problem 4
Arabica Coffee Company acquired patent right on July 1, 2018 for P2,000,000. The asset
has a legal life of 15 years but due to the rapidly changing technology management
estimates a useful life of only 5 years. On January 1, 2019, management is uncertain that
the process can actually be made economically feasible and decides to write down the
patent to an estimated market value of P600,000. Amortization will be taken three years
from this time. On January 1, 2021, after having perfected the related production process,
the asset is now appraised at a sound value of P2,400,000. Furthermore, the estimated
useful life is now believed to have extended by six more years. The company uses the
straight-line method of amortization.
Compute for the following:
a. Amortization expense for 2018
b. Impairment loss to be recognized in 2019
c. Patent carrying value at December 31, 2020
d. Revaluation surplus recognized in 2021

Problem 5
Huagcang Gagalau Company was granted a patent on January 1, 2016 and capitalized
P440,000. The entity was amortizing the patent over the useful life of 15 years.

During 2019, the entity paid P145,000 in successfully defending an attempted


infringement of the patent. After the legal action was completed, the entity sold the patent
to the plaintiff for P800,000. The policy is to take no amortization in the year of disposal.

What amount should be reported as gain from sale of patent in 2019?

Module 2
INVESTMENT PROPERTY

Overview
Many accountants falsely believe that there’s only one standard that deals with long-term
tangible assets: PAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment (PPE). While it’s true that you need to
apply PAS 16 for most of your long-term tangible assets, it’s not the one ruling all. I tried to falsify
this myth some time ago here. Except for IAS 16, we have a few other standards arranging the
long-term assets. PAS 40 Investment Property is one of them.
Under PFRS, investment property is property that an entity holds to earn rental income and/or
capital appreciation. It generates cash flows mostly independently of other assets held by an entity.
It is not property that an entity uses to supply goods or services, nor is it used for administrative
purposes. Examples of investment property are land held for appreciation and a building held for
current or future leases to third parties. Examples of assets that are not investment property are
property intended for sale in the near term, property being constructed for a third party, owner-
occupied property, and property leased to a third party under a finance lease.

Module Objectives
After successful completion of this module, you should be able to:
❖ define investment property and differentiate them from owner-occupied assets classified
as PPE;
❖ measure investment property upon initial recognition;
❖ measure investment property after initial recognition;
❖ account for transfer of classification from and into investment property; and
❖ identify required disclosures for investment property.

Course Material

DEFINITION OF INVESTMENT PROPERTY


Investment property – land or a building or part of a building or both held by the owner or by the
lessee under a finance lease to earn rentals or for capital appreciation or both.
Examples of investment property:
a. Land held for long-term capital appreciation
b. Land held for undecided future use
c. Building leased out under an operating lease
d. Vacant building held to be leased out under an operating lease
e. Property under construction as investment property

The following are not investment property and, therefore, are outside the scope of PAS 40:
a. Property held for use in the production or supply of goods or services or for administrative
purposes (PAS 16 Property, plant and equipment)
b. Property held for sale in the ordinary course of business or in the process of construction
of development for such sale (PAS 2 Inventories)
c. Property being constructed or developed on behalf of third parties (PAS 11 Construction
Contracts)
d. Owner-occupied property (Property, Plant and Equipment), including property held for
future use as owner-occupied property, property held for future development and
subsequent use as owner-occupied property, property occupied by employees and owner-
occupied property awaiting disposal
e. Property leased to another entity under a finance lease (PAS 17/PFRS 16 Leases).

ACCO 20093: INTERMEDIATE ACCOUNTING 2 8


2nd Sem A.Y.2020-2021
OTHER CLASSIFICATION ISSUES

Property held under an operating lease


A property interest that is held by a lessee under an operating lease may be classified and
accounted for as investment property provided that:
The rest of the definition of investment property is met
• The operating lease is accounted for as if it were a finance lease in accordance with IFRS
16
• The lessee uses the fair value model set out in this Standard for the asset recognized.
• An entity may make the foregoing classification on a property-by-property basis.

Partial own use - If the owner uses part of the property for its own use, and part to earn rentals
or for capital appreciation
➢ If the portions can be sold or leased out separately, they are accounted for separately.
Therefore, the part that is rented out is investment property.
➢ If the portions cannot be sold or leased out separately, the property is investment property
only if the owner-occupied portion is insignificant.

Ancillary services - If the enterprise provides ancillary services to the occupants of a property
held by the enterprise, the appropriateness of classification as investment property is determined
by the significance of the services provided.
➢ If those services are a relatively insignificant component of the arrangement as a whole
(for instance, the building owner supplies security and maintenance services to the
lessees), then the enterprise may treat the property as investment property.
➢ Where the services provided are more significant (such as in the case of an owner-
managed hotel), the property should be classified as owner-occupied.

Intracompany rentals - Property rented to a parent, subsidiary, or fellow subsidiary


➢ Not investment property in consolidated financial statements that include both the
lessor and the lessee, because the property is owner-occupied from the perspective of
the group.
➢ However, such property could qualify as investment property in the separate financial
statements of the lessor, if the definition of investment property is otherwise met.

RECOGNITION
➢ Investment property should be recognized as an asset
a. When it is probable that the future economic benefits that are associated with the
property will flow to the enterprise
b. The cost of the property can be reliably measured.

Initial measurement
➢ Investment property is initially measured at cost, including transaction costs.
➢ Such cost should not include start-up costs, abnormal waste, or initial operating losses
incurred before the investment property achieves the planned level of occupancy.

Measurement subsequent to initial recognition


After initially recognizing the investment property at cost, an enterprise may choose between the:
➢ Fair value model; or
➢ Cost model

ACCO 20093: INTERMEDIATE ACCOUNTING 2 9


2nd Sem A.Y.2020-2021
➢ One method must be adopted for all of an entity's investment property. Change is
permitted only if this results in a more appropriate presentation. PAS 40 notes that this is
highly unlikely for a change from a fair value model to a cost model.

Fair value model


a. Investment property is remeasured at fair value, which is the amount for which the
property could be exchanged between knowledgeable, willing parties in an arm's length
transaction. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of investment property
must be included in net profit or loss for the period in which it arises.

b. Fair value should reflect the actual market state and circumstances as of the end of the
reporting period. The best evidence of fair value is normally given by current prices on an
active market for similar property in the same location and condition and subject to similar
lease and other contracts. In the absence of such information, the entity may consider
current prices for properties of a different nature or subject to different conditions, recent
prices on less active markets with adjustments to reflect changes in economic conditions,
and discounted cash flow projections based on reliable estimates of future cash flows.

c. There is a rebuttable presumption that the enterprise will be able to determine the fair
value of an investment property reliably on a continuing basis. However, if, in exceptional
circumstances, an entity follows the fair value model but at acquisition concludes that a
property's fair value is not expected to be reliably measurable on a continuing basis, the
property is accounted for in accordance with the benchmark treatment under PAS 16,
Property, Plant and Equipment (cost less accumulated depreciation less accumulated
impairment losses).

d. Where a property has previously been measured at fair value, it should continue to be
measured at fair value until disposal, even if comparable market transactions become less
frequent or market prices become less readily available.

Cost Model
a. After initial recognition, investment property is accounted for in accordance with the cost
model as set out in PAS 16, Property, Plant and Equipment – cost less accumulated
depreciation and less accumulated impairment losses.

TRANSFERS TO OR FROM INVESTMENT PROPERTY CLASSIFICATION


Transfers to, or from, investment property should only be made when there is a change
in use, evidenced by:
➢ Commencement of owner-occupation (transfer from investment property to owner-
occupied property)
➢ Commencement of development with a view to sale (transfer from investment property to
inventories)
➢ End of owner-occupation (transfer from owner-occupied property to investment property);
➢ Commencement of an operating lease to another party (transfer from inventories to
investment property)
➢ End of construction or development (transfer from property in the course of
construction/development to investment property.
➢ When an entity decides to sell an investment property without development, the property
is not reclassified as investment property but is dealt with as investment property until it is
disposed of.

DISPOSALS
➢ An investment property should be derecognized on disposal or when the investment
property is permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefits are expected
from its disposal.
➢ The gain or loss on disposal is the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the
carrying amount of the asset and recognized in profit or loss.
➢ Compensation from third parties is recognized when it becomes receivable.

PRESENTATION ON THE STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL POSITION


As required by PAS 1, investment property shall be separately shown as a line item on
the face of statement of financial position and is classified as a non-current asset.

Disclosures under the Fair Value Model and Cost Model


a. Whether the fair value or the cost model is used
b. If the fair value model is used, whether property interests held under operating leases are
classified and accounted for as investment property;
c. If classification is difficult, the criteria to distinguish investment property from owner-
occupied property and from property held for sale.
d. The methods and significant assumptions applied in determining the fair value of
investment property.
e. The extent to which the fair value of investment property is based on a valuation by a
qualified independent valuer; if there has been no such valuation, that fact must be
disclosed.
f. The amounts recognized in profit or loss for:
➢ Rental income from investment property;

ACCO 20093: INTERMEDIATE ACCOUNTING 2 11


2nd Sem A.Y.2020-2021
➢ Direct operating expenses (including repairs and maintenance) arising from
investment property that generated rental income during the period; and
➢ Direct operating expenses (including repairs and maintenance) arising from
investment property that did not generate rental income during the period.
g. Restrictions on the realizability of investment property or the remittance of income and
proceeds of disposal.
h. Contractual obligations to purchase, construct, or develop investment property or for
repairs, maintenance or enhancements.

Additional Disclosures for the Fair Value Model


• a reconciliation between the carrying amounts of investment property at the beginning and
end of the period, showing additions, disposals, fair value adjustments, net foreign
exchange differences, transfers to and from inventories and owner-occupied property, and
other changes
• significant adjustments to an outside valuation (if any)
• if an entity that otherwise uses the fair value model measures an item of investment
property using the cost model, certain additional disclosures are required

Additional Disclosures for the Cost Model


• the depreciation methods used
• the useful lives or the depreciation rates used
• the gross carrying amount and the accumulated depreciation (aggregated with
accumulated impairment losses) at the beginning and end of the period
• a reconciliation of the carrying amount of investment property at the beginning and end of
the period, showing additions, disposals, depreciation, impairment recognized or
reversed, foreign exchange differences, transfers to and from inventories and owner-
occupied property, and other changes
• the fair value of investment property. If the fair value of an item of investment property
cannot be measured reliably, additional disclosures are required, including, if possible, the
range of estimates within which fair value is highly likely to lie

PFRS for SMEs, Sec. 16 Investment Property, requires SMES to measure Property
Investments initially at cost including costs incurred to bring it into use and subsequently measure
at each balance sheet date at FMV, with the fair value movements to be recognized in the profit
or loss. If fair value cannot be determined without undue cost or effort, the real property shall be
treated as PPE. When fair value of investment property is no longer available without undue cost
or effort, the investment shall become PPE. This is a change in circumstance therefore, treated
currently and prospectively.

NON-CURRENT ASSETS HELD FOR SALE

Overview
When a company makes the decision to sell an asset or to stop some part of its business,
it is making a decision that affects the future cash flows, profitability, and overall financial situation.
The users of the financial statements should be informed about these events. Therefore, PFRS 5
Non-Current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations was issued to highlight the results
from continued operations and to separate them from the results of the ongoing activities.
PFRS 5 outlines how to account for non-current assets held for sale (or for distribution to
owners). In general terms, assets (or disposal groups) held for sale are not depreciated, are
measured at the lower of carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell and are presented
separately in the statement of financial position. Specific disclosures are also required for
discontinued operations and disposals of non-current assets.
Assets classified as non-current in accordance with PAS 1 Presentation of Financial
Statements shall not be reclassified as current assets until they meet the criteria to be classified
as held for sale in accordance with this PFRS. Assets of a class that an entity would normally
regard as non-current that are acquired exclusively with a view to resale shall not be classified as
current unless they meet the criteria to be classified as held for sale in accordance with this PFRS.

Module Objectives
After successful completion of this module, you should be able to:
❖ define non-current assets held for sale and identify the conditions required for asset/s to
be classified as held for sale;
❖ measure non-currents assets held for sale upon initial recognition;
❖ measure non-current assets held for sale after initial recognition; and
❖ identify required disclosures for non-current assets held for sale.

SCOPE
• Classification and presentation requirements apply to all non-current assets and disposal
groups (as a whole)

REQUISITE TO BE HELD FOR SALE:


• Carrying value of the asset is to be recovered principally through a sale transaction.
• The asset is available for immediate sale and sale is highly probable.

HIGHLY PROBABLE MEANS:


• The appropriate level of management must be committed to a plan to sell the asset (or
disposal group)
• The asset is available for immediate sale
• An active program to locate a buyer and complete the plan must have been initiated
• The asset (or disposal group) must be actively marketed for sale at a price that is
reasonable in relation to its current fair value.
• The sale should be expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within one year
from the date of classification
• Actions required to complete the plan should indicate that it is unlikely that significant
changes to the plan will be made or that the plan will be withdrawn

ACCO 20093: INTERMEDIATE ACCOUNTING 2 15


2nd Sem A.Y.2020-2021
NONCURRENT ASSETS EXCLUSIVELY ACQUIRED WITH A VIEW TO ITS SUBSEQUENT
DISPOSAL
• Classify the non-current asset (or disposal group) as held for sale at the acquisition date
only if the one-year requirement in is met, and
• It is highly probable that the other requisites will be met within a short period following the
acquisition (3 months)

NCA HELD FOR SALE REQUIREMENTS MET AFTER THE END OF THE REPORTING
PERIOD
• An entity shall not classify a non-current asset (or disposal group) as held for sale in those
financial statements when issued.
• When those criteria are met after the reporting period but before the authorization of the
financial statements for issue, the entity shall make appropriate disclosures

NONCURRENT ASSETS TO BE ABANDONED


• An entity shall not classify as held for sale a non-current asset (or disposal group) that is
to be abandoned. This is because its carrying amount will be recovered principally through
continuing use.
• An entity shall not account for a non-current asset that has been temporarily taken out of
use as if it had been abandoned.

MEASUREMENT NCA HELD FOR SALE OR DISPOSAL GROUP


• Immediately before the initial classification of the asset as held for sale, the carrying
amount of the asset will be measured in accordance with applicable PFRSs.
• Lower of its carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell.
• When the sale is expected to occur beyond one year, the entity shall measure the costs
to sell at their present value.
• Gains for any subsequent increase in fair value less costs to sell of an asset is recognized,
but not in excess of the cumulative impairment loss that has been recognized.
• An entity shall not depreciate (or amortize) a non-current asset while it is classified as held
for sale or while it is part of a disposal group classified as held for sale.
• Impairment must be considered both at the time of classification as held for sale and
subsequently:
At the time of classification as held for sale. Immediately prior to classifying an
asset or disposal group as held for sale, impairment is measured and recognized in
accordance with the applicable PFRSs (generally PAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment,
PAS 36 Impairment of Assets, PAS 38 Intangible Assets, and PAS 39 Financial
Instruments: Recognition and Measurement/PFRS 9 Financial Instruments). Any
impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss unless the asset had been measured at
revalued amount under PAS 16 or PAS 38, in which case the impairment is treated as a
revaluation decrease.
After classification as held for sale. Calculate any impairment loss based on the
difference between the adjusted carrying amounts of the asset/disposal group and fair
value less costs to sell. Any impairment loss that arises by using the measurement
principles in PFRS 5 must be recognized in profit or loss, even for assets previously carried
at revalued amounts.

CHANGE IN CLASSIFICATION
• Measured at the lower of:
a) Its carrying amount before the asset (or disposal group) was classified as held for
sale, adjusted for any depreciation, amortization or revaluations that would
have been recognized had the asset (or disposal group) not been classified as
held for sale, and
b) Its recoverable amount at the date of the subsequent decision not to sell

• The entity shall include any required adjustment to the carrying amount of a non-current
asset that ceases to be classified as held for sale in profit or loss from continuing
operations in the period the NCA ceases to be classified as held for sale.

Financial Statement Presentation


Assets classified as held for sale, and the assets and liabilities included within a disposal
group classified as held for sale, must be presented separately on the face of the statement of
financial position.

Financial Statement Disclosures


PFRS 5 requires the following disclosures about assets (or disposal groups) that are held
for sale:
• description of the non-current asset or disposal group
• description of facts and circumstances of the sale (disposal) and the expected timing
• impairment losses and reversals, if any, and where in the statement of comprehensive
income they are recognized
• if applicable, the reportable segment in which the non-current asset (or disposal group) is
presented in accordance with PFRS 8 Operating Segments

Problem 2
On January 1, 2020, IT’S SHOWTIME Corporation decided to dispose of an item of plant that is
carried in its records at a cost of P = 900,000, with accumulated depreciation of P = 160,000.
Depreciation on the plant since it was originally acquired has been charged of P = 10,000 per month.
The plant will continue to be operated until it is sold, at which time the operations of the plant will
be outsourced. The company undertook all the necessary actions to be able to classify the asset
as held for sale. It is estimated that it could sell the plant for its fair value, P
= 720,000, incurring
P
= 20,000 selling costs in the process. The plant has been depreciated at an amount of P = 10,000
per month.

On March 31, 2020, the plant had not been sold but, due to shortage of this type of plant, there
= 770,000. On June 30, 2020, IT’S SHOWTIME sold
had been an increase in the fair value to P

INVESTMENT IN EQUITY SECURITIES

Overview
Investments defined as the assets held by an entity for the accretion of wealth through
distribution such as interest, royalties, dividends and rentals, for capital appreciation or for other
benefits to the investing entity such as those obtained through trading relationships. These are
the assets not directly identified with the central revenue producing activities of the enterprise.
One category of a financial asset is the equity securities. Equity securities are those that represent
ownership in a company or rights to acquire ownership in a company or rights to acquire
ownership interests at an agreed-upon or determinable price and this is based on the intention of
the holding entity and the level of influence acquired by the investor over the operating and
financial policies of the investee.

Module Objectives:
After successful completion of this module, you should be able to:
❖ understand the nature of investment in equity securities;
❖ classify investments in equity securities in accordance with IFRS 9;
❖ measure investment at the date of initial recognition;
❖ formulate entries for transactions affecting investment in equity securities subsequent to
acquisition;
❖ measure investment in equity securities at the end of the reporting period and account for
changes in their carrying amount;
❖ apply the principles for reclassification of investment in equity securities
❖ present investment in equity securities and the resulting accounts and information in the
financial statements; and
❖ identify the required disclosures for investment in equity securities.

CLASSIFICATION OF EQUITY INVESTMENTS


1. Equity Investments at Fair Value through Profit or Loss (FVTPL). These are the
investments held for trading and there is neither control nor significant influence in the
operating & financial policies of the investee company. Hence, this is the default
classification of investment in equity securities.

They are initially recognized at cost (generally, the purchase price is the fair value at the
date of acquisition). Any transaction cost directly attributable to its acquisition is recorded
as expense. The journal entry to recognize its acquisition and year-end valuation,
respectively, are:

(if the market value at year-end > cost)

Unrealized Loss on Equity Investments at FVTPL xx


Equity Investments at Fair Value through Profit or Loss (FVTPL) xx
(if the market value at year-end < cost)

At each reporting date, the equity investments at FVTPL are adjusted at its fair market
value. Any increase or decrease in equity investments at FVTPL is recognized and
reported as part of the entity’s profit or loss for the period on the statement of
comprehensive income.

Upon sale or disposal of equity investments at FVTPL, any gain or loss is to be recognized
for the difference between the sales price or proceeds & the most recently recorded fair
value and it is reported in the profit & loss section in the statement of comprehensive
income. The journal entry to recognize the sale of equity investments at FVTPL is:

Cash (amount of proceeds or sales price) xx


Equity Investments at FVTPL (most recent market price) xx
Gain on Sale of Equity Investments at FVTPL xx
[ if sales price > market price]

Cash (amount of proceeds or sales price) xx


Loss on Sale of Equity Investments at FVTPL xx
Equity Investments at FVTPL (most recent market price) xx
[ if sales price < market price ]

2. Equity Investments at Fair Value through Other Comprehensive Income (FVTOCI).


These are the investments held for non-trading and there is neither control nor significant
influence in the operating & financial policies of the investee company. The investor, at
the date of initial recognition, makes an irrevocable choice of designing the securities as
FVTPL or FVTOCI. They are initially recognized at cost (generally, the purchase price is
also the fair value at the date of acquisition) plus any transaction cost directly attributable
to its acquisition. The journal entry to recognize its acquisition and year-end valuation,
respectively, are:

Equity Investments at Fair Value through OCI xx

At each reporting date, the equity investments at FVTOCI are adjusted at its fair market
value. Any increase or decrease in equity investments at FVTOCI is likewise recognized
and reported to other comprehensive income (OCI) in the statement of comprehensive
income.

Upon sale or disposal of equity investments at FVTOCI, it is first adjusted to its fair value
(fair value is presumed its selling price), then the sale is recorded without recognizing any
profit or loss. The journal entry to recognize the sale of equity investments at FVTOCI is:

Equity Investments at Fair Value through OCI xx


Unrealized Gain on Equity Investments at FVTOCI xx
(if the sales price > most recent market price before disposal)

Unrealized Loss on Equity Investments at FVTOCI xx


Equity Investments at Fair Value through OCI xx
(if the sales price < most recent market price before disposal)

Cash xx
Equity Investments at Fair Value through OCI xx
(the amount recognized is equal to the sales price at the date of sale.)

The accumulated or cumulative balance of unrealized gains and losses on equity


investments at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI) shall remain in
equity and not taken or reversed to profit or loss. However, it may be transferred or
reclassified directly to retained earnings, as follows:

Unrealized Gain on Equity Investments at FVTOCI xx


Retained Earnings xx

Retained Earnings xx
Unrealized Loss on Equity Investments at FVTOCI xx

The amount transferred to retained earnings is the difference between the net selling
(sales) price and the initial cost of investment.

3. Investments in Associates. The investor classified the equity investments as investment


in associates when it has the ability to participate in the operating and financial policy
decisions of the investee company. As defined in IAS 28, an associate is an entity over
which the investor has significant influence. Significant influence is the power to
participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control
or joint control of those policies.

The existence of significant influence by an entity is usually evidenced in one or more of


the following ways (IAS 28, paragraph 6):
(a) representation on the board of directors or equivalent governing body of the investee;
(b) participation in policy-making processes, including participation in decisions about
dividends or other distributions;
(c) material transactions between the entity and its investee;
(d) interchange of managerial personnel; or
(e) provision of essential technical information.

ACCO 20093: INTERMEDIATE ACCOUNTING 2 21


2nd Sem A.Y.2020-2021
The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or
convertible, including potential voting rights held by other entities, are considered when
assessing whether an entity has significant influence. Potential voting rights are not
currently exercisable or convertible when, for example, they cannot be exercised or
converted until a future date or until the occurrence of a future event. When potential voting
rights or other derivatives containing potential voting rights exist, an entity’s interest in an
associate or a joint venture is determine solely on the basis of existing ownership interests
and does not reflect the possible exercise or conversion of potential voting rights. (IAS 28,
paragraph 8 and 12).

EQUITY METHOD
Investment in Associate uses equity method. The use of equity method is described as
follows:

The investment in an associate or a joint venture is initially recognized at purchase price


plus transaction costs.
Investment in Associate xx
Cash* xx
* or appropriate account title representing the consideration given

The carrying amount of the investment is increased or decreased to recognize the


investor’s share of the profit or loss of the investee after the date of acquisition. The
investor’s share of the investee’s profit or loss is recognized in the investor’s profit or loss.
Investment in Associate xx
Share in Profit of Associate xx

On the date of acquisition, the fair value of the investee’s net assets exceeds their carrying
amount, the excess shall be amortized, as appropriate, as an adjustment to the investment
account and to the share in profit of associate. Adjustments to the carrying amount may
also be necessary for changes in the investor’s proportionate interest in the investee
arising from changes in the investee’s other comprehensive income. Such changes
include those arising from the revaluation of property, plant and equipment and from
foreign exchange translation differences. (IAS 28, paragraph 10).
Share in Profit of Associate xx
Investment in Associate xx

Any further excess of the cost of the investment and the investor’s share of the fair values
in net identifiable net assets of the associate at the date of acquisition of the investment
is attributable to goodwill. However, goodwill is not separately recognized and is carried
in the investment balance. Goodwill is not subject to amortization but is tested for
impairment, at least annually. If goodwill is assessed as impaired, the investor shall take
up its proportionate share in impairment loss as follows:
Share in Profit of Associate xx
Investment in Associate xx
If the cost of the investment is less than the equity in the fair value of the net identifiable
assets of the associate, indicating a bargain purchase for the investment, the investor shall
take up the difference as an adjustment in its share of profit of the associate in the period
of acquisition. The entry for such adjustment is

When an investor that accounts for investment in associate using the equity method
disposes of some or all of the shares held, the difference between the net disposal
proceeds and the carrying value of the investment using the equity method shall be
recognized as gain or loss in the profit or loss section in the statement of comprehensive
income. If the net proceeds exceed the carrying value of the investment, the entry for sale
is

RECLASSIFICATION OF EQUITY SECURITIES


A. Reclassification from investment in associate to investment at fair value
When an investor accounts for investment in associate using equity method loses
its significant influence over the investee company (because of sale of a portion of
investment or through other means), the investor shall discontinue the use of
equity method and shall reclassify the investment as at fair value (irrevocable
choice of measuring at fair value through profit or loss or through other
comprehensive income), as a result, the securities shall be transferred at fair
value at the date of reclassification and the difference between the fair value of
the retained investment and its previous carrying value is reported in the profit or
loss.

The journal entry to recognize the reclassification, if the fair value exceeds the
investment’s carrying value at the date when the significant influence is lost:
Equity Investments (at Fair Value) xx
Investment in Associate xx
Gain from Reclassification of Investment xx

B. Reclassification from investment in associate to investment at fair value


An investment originally classified as equity investments at fair value may
subsequently give the investor significant influence by acquiring additional shares.
The securities are reclassified as investment in associates using the equity method
if the investor does not have the intention to dispose the shares within 12 months
from the date significant influence is acquired. The fair value at the date of
reclassification shall be considered as the initial cost of the Investment in
Associate.

The journal entry to recognize reclassification is (after the adjustment for fair value)

4. Investments in Subsidiaries. The financial statements may be consolidated, and this is
based on control. Control may be obtained in various circumstances and not solely as a
result of the power to direct the financial and operating policies. An investor controls an
investee when it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the
investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee.

ACCOUNTING FOR DIVIDENDS AND STOCK RGHTS


Dividends – Distribution of earnings paid to shareholders based on the number of shares owned.
The most common type of dividend is a cash dividend. Dividends may be issued in other forms
such as stock and property.

Dividends are typically recognized as income by the investor/shareholder, unless it is a


liquidating dividend, the equity method is being applied or the dividends are in the form of
shares.

Cash dividends are recognized as income regardless whether the dividends come from the
cumulative net income after the date of the investment (post acquisition retained earnings) or net
income prior to the acquisition of the investment (pre-acquisition retained earnings). Previously,
it was addressed in a PFRS that dividends from pre-acquisition retained earnings are liquidating
dividends. This treatment has now been superseded by revisions to PAS 27.

Basic rules on dividends


a. Cash dividends – Income recognized at the date of declaration, which is the date the board
of directors announces its intention to pay dividends.
b. Property dividends – Income at fair value.
c. Stock or share dividends – Recorded as a memorandum entry, however two important
cases to take note of:
1. A different class of shares received other than the original investment known as
“special stock dividends” shall be recognized as a new investment, therefore the
total cost of the investment shall be allocated using the “relative fair value method”.
A common accounting problem considered under these cases will be if only a single
fair value is given. In this instance, the available fair value shall simply be deducted
from the total cost and the difference shall be the value allocated to the remaining
investment.

2. Stock dividends will also reduce the cost per share as a result of the same or original
cost being allocated to a larger number of shares. This will of course be a factor in
subsequent sale transactions related to the investment.

When Are Shareholders Entitled to Dividends?


As mentioned earlier, dividends are recognized as income at the date of declaration.
Meaning, dividends receivable shall be debited and a corresponding credit to dividend income.
But to determine whether the shareholder should get a dividend, you need to look at two important
dates. They are the "record date" or "date of record" and the "ex-dividend date" or "ex-date."
When a company declares a dividend, it sets a record date when the shareholder must be on the
company's books as a shareholder to receive the dividend. Companies also use this date to
determine who is sent financial reports and other information. Once the company sets the record
date, the ex-dividend date is set based on stock exchange rules. The ex-dividend date is usually
set for stocks two business days before the record date. If a buyer purchases the stock on its
ex-dividend date or after, they will not receive the next dividend payment. Instead, the seller gets

ACCO 20093: INTERMEDIATE ACCOUNTING 2 24


2nd Sem A.Y.2020-2021
the dividend. If the buyer purchases before the ex-dividend date meaning “dividend on”, the buyer
will get the dividend.

Accounting for Stock Rights


Stock rights are issued to shareholders in order to maintain their proportionate ownership interest
in the corporation when new shares are issued at a discounted price compared to a public offering
and for a limited period only usually several weeks. The ratio is one stock right for every share
owned by a shareholder. However, the number of stock rights to buy one additional share shall
not be the same. There are opposing views in accounting for stock rights and the illustration
below will show both.

Let us assume that a shareholder has 50,000 shares with a total cost of 5,000,000 or 100 per
share and is issued 50,000 stock rights to acquire 10,000 shares at 140 each. The fair value of
the shares is 160 each and the stock right is 10 each.
Accounted for Separately Not Accounted for Separately
Total Fair Value of SR (50,000 x 10) 500,000 Only a “memo entry” is recorded for the receipt
of the stock rights. And the exercise and
Journal Entry: acquisition of the shares shall only be the
exercise price.
Investment in Stock Rights 500,000
Investment in Stocks 500,000 Exercise price (10,000 x 140) 1,400,000

Exercise price (10,000 x 140) 1,400,000 Journal Entry:


Cost of stock rights exercise 500,000
Total cost of new investment 1,900,000 Investment in Stocks 1,400,000
Cash 1,400,000
Journal Entry:

Investment in Stocks 1,900,000


Cash 1,400,000
Investment in Stocks 500,000

• Accounting for stock rights separately has been the traditional approach followed for
several decades already although unlike before where the total cost of the investment is
multiplied by the fraction that can be developed by adding the fair value of the share and
the stock right (example: 5,000,000 x 10/170) depending whether the shares are quoted
“right-on” or “ex-right”. The fair value is simply used as the value to be allocated as the
separate investment of the stock rights based on the theoretical basis under PFRS 9 that
“all investments and contracts on those instruments must be measured at fair value”
• If stock rights are not accounted for separately, this is in line with another instrument
described in PFRS 9 known as embedded derivatives where the stock rights can be
rightfully classified. Embedded derivatives shall not be separated from the host contract
if the host contract is a financial asset. Of course, the investment in stocks is a financial
asset.
• That’s why it will be wise to proceed with caution and identify the requirements specifically
mentioned in the problem on how to treat stock rights since both treatments are acceptable
under PFRS 9.

Theoretical Value of Stock Rights


This is a formula that shall be applied to derive the fair value of the stock rights in case it is not
determinable in a specific situation. There are two applications of the formula depending whether
the shares are quoted “right-on” or “ex-right”.

ACCO 20093: INTERMEDIATE ACCOUNTING 2 25


2nd Sem A.Y.2020-2021
RIGHT-ON EX-RIGHT

Market value of share less Exercise Price Market value of share less Exercise Price
Number of rights to purchase one share + 1 Number of rights to purchase one share

The formulas are identical except for one little detail, the denominator for the “right-on” formula
shall have a plus 1 factor to represent the market value of the stock right that is included in the
market value of the share since it is quoted “right-on”.

Let’s assume that 50,000 shares are acquired for 5,000,0000 and 50,000 rights are issued to
purchase 12,500 shares or 4 rights to purchase on share at an exercise price of 100. The shares
are quoted at 125 and stock rights shall be accounted for separately.

The market value of the stock rights if “right-on” is 5 (125 – 100) / (4 + 1) and 6.25 is “ex-right”
(125 – 100) / 4. The cost of the new investment shall be

RIGHT-ON EX-RIGHT

Exercise price (12,500 x 100) 1,250,000 Exercise price (12,500 x 100) 1,250,000
Cost of stock rights (5 x 250,000 Cost of stock rights (6.25 x 312,500

Shares in lieu of cash dividends and cash in lieu of stock dividends


Let us assume that 50,000 shares are acquired at a cost of 3,000,000.
Situation 1: A dividend per share of 20 is declared but 5,000 shares with a fair value of 150 each
is issued
Situation 2: A 20% stock dividend is declared but instead cash dividends of 600,000 are received

Under situation 1, shares in lieu of cash, this shall be recognized as a property dividend and be
recorded as income at 750,000 (5,000 x 150), the fair value of the shares received. If the fair
value of the shares is not available, the amount of income shall be 1,000,000 (50,000 x 20)

Under situation number 2, cash in lieu of stock dividends, the “as if sold approach” shall be
followed. Step 1 will be to compute for the new cost per share if the share dividends were received
which is 50 per share (3,000,000 / 50,000 + 10,000 (20% x 50,000)). Then the number of share
dividends that would have been received shall be multiplied by 50 and compared to amount of
cash dividends received and a gain or loss on sale shall be recognized. Therefore, the gain is
100,000 (600,000 less (50 x 10,000))

Module 5
INVESTMENT IN DEBT SECURITIES

Overview
A debt security is a kind of financial asset that is formed when one party lends money to
another. For example, bonds are debt securities issued by corporations and sold to investors.
Investors lend money to corporations in return for interest payments, along with the return of their
principal upon its maturity date. This module will discuss the accounting treatments for investment
in debt securities in line with the provisions of IFRS 9.

Module Objectives
After successful completion of this module, you should be able to:
❖ understand the nature of investment in debt securities;
❖ classify investments in debt securities in accordance with IFRS 9;
❖ measure investments in debt securities at the date of initial recognition and at reporting
date;
❖ formulate entries for transactions affecting investment in debt securities subsequent to
initial recognition;
❖ identify the required disclosures for investment in debt securities.

Course Material

NATURE OF INVESTMENT IN DEBT SECURITIES


Investment in debt securities represents the creditor’s claim with a fixed amount and
usually some interest obligation. The most common example of debt securities are bonds. The
contract between the issuing corporation and the bondholder (also known as the investor) is
known as bond indenture. The bond indenture specifies the rights and duties of both parties,
terms of the bonds, restriction on the issuing corporation and all other important details affecting
the contracting parties. Bonds that mature in a single date is known as term bonds while the bonds
that mature in installment is called serial bonds. Debt securities normally have the following
characteristics:
1. maturity value
2. maturity date
3. periodic interest payments based on stated rate

Types of Interest Rates


1. Stated rate or nominal rate- is the interest rate indicated in the face of the bonds. It is
the basis of the interest received/receivable or paid/payable.
2. Effective interest rate or market rate or yield rate- is the rate that exactly discounts
estimated future cash payments or receipts through the expected life of the financial asset
or financial liability to the gross carrying amount of a financial asset or to the amortized
cost of a financial liability. It is the basis of the interest earned/incurred during a period.

The value of the bonds can be based on market quotation or the discounted value. Any
quotation for the debt security is expressed as a percentage of its face value. Thus, if P1,000,000
bond is quoted at 98, its bond price is P980,000; if P1,000,000 bond is quoted at 103, its bond
price is P1,030,000. If the quotation or purchase price is not available, the bond price or market
price is determined by discounting the maturity value of the bond and each remaining interest
payments at the market rate of interest for similar debt on that date. When computing the present
value, the interest rates are considered.

ACCO 20093: INTERMEDIATE ACCOUNTING 2 31


2nd Sem A.Y.2020-2021
➢ Stated rate = Effective rate → Bonds sell at face value
➢ Stated rate > Effective rate → Bonds sell at a premium
➢ Stated rate < Effective rate → Bonds sell at a discount

Accrued interest arises in the accounts when debt securities are purchased at any time
between the interest dates. This amount is excluded in the cost of the debt investment and is
recorded separately in an interest receivable or interest revenue account. Meanwhile, this will be
part of the cash paid at initial recognition.

Designation of Debt Instrument


An entity shall classify financial assets as subsequent measured at amortized cost, fair
value through profit or loss, or fair value through other comprehensive income based on both:
• the entity business model for managing the financial assets; and
• the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial assets.

1. Amortized Cost (if both of the following condition are met)


• The financial assets are held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial
asset to collect; and
• The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flow that
are solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding.
2. Fair value through other comprehensive income (if both of the following conditions are met)
• The financial assets are held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both
collecting contractual cash flow and selling financial assets; and
• The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flow that
are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding
3. Fair value through profit or loss. Financial asset shall be measured at fair value through
profit or loss unless it is measured at amortized cost or at fair value through other comprehensive
income.

DEBT INVESTMENT AT AMORTIZED COST


Debt investment at amortized cost is initially recognized at purchase price which is the fair
value at the date of acquisition plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to their
acquisition. After the initial recognition, at interest dates and at reporting dates, any premium or
discount is amortized using the effective interest method. Any fair value at the end of the reporting
period is to be ignored. If the debt securities are disposed, amortization should be recorded until
the date of sale to update the carrying value of the investment sold. Gain or loss is recognized for
the difference between the sales price and the updated carrying amount of the debt investment
on the date of sale.
Below are the pro-forma entries related to the transactions of debt investments at
amortized cost:

DEBT INVESTMENT AT FAIR VALUE THROUGH PROFIT OR LOSS


Debt investment at fair value through profit or loss (FVPL) is initially recorded at cost
(purchase price which is generally its fair market value at the date of acquisition). Any transaction
cost directly attributable to its acquisition does not form part of the cost of investment and is
recorded as an expense. The discount or premium on investments classified as debt securities at
fair value through profit or loss is not subject to amortization. At the reporting date, the debt
investments are measured at fair value and the unrealized gains and losses are taken to profit or
loss.
If the investment is disposed, there is no need to update the carrying value. Thus, the gain
or loss is recognized for the difference between the sales price and the most recent measurement
at the reporting date.
Below are the pro-forma entries related to the transactions of debt investments at fair value

DEBT INVESTMENT AT FAIR VALUE THROUGH OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME


Debt investment at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) is initially
recognized at purchase price which is the fair value at the date of acquisition plus transaction
costs that are directly attributable to their acquisition. After the initial recognition, at interest dates
and at reporting dates, any premium or discount is amortized using the effective interest method.
At the reporting date, the debt investments are measured at fair value. The difference between
the amortized cost and the fair value of debt investment is taken to equity (in the statement of

ACCO 20093: INTERMEDIATE ACCOUNTING 2 34


2nd Sem A.Y.2020-2021
financial position) under other comprehensive income while the change in the balance of
Unrealized Gains/Losses account shall be presented in the statement of comprehensive income.
If the debt securities are disposed, the fair value at the date of sale should be adjusted.
Moreover, the cumulative balance of the unrealized gain/loss account is transferred to profit or
loss. When the sale takes place between interest dates, accrued interest is recorded as Interest
Revenue. The gain or loss on sale is computed based on the sales price less the carrying value
at the date of sale (which is coming from the amortized cost).

Below are the pro-forma entries related to the transactions of debt investments at fair value
through other comprehensive income:

RECLASSIFICATION OF DEBT INVESTMENTS


Reclassification shall be made when and only when an entity changes its business model
for managing its financial assets. Reclassification is prohibited (1) when there is change in
management intention; (2) upon temporary disappearance of a particular market; and (3) when
transfers of assets are made between existing models. Moreover, it shall be made prospectively
from the date of reclassification.

From Amortized Cost


In a reclassification from amortized cost to FVPL, the new debt investment (FVPL) is
recorded at fair value and the difference between fair value and amortized cost is taken to profit
or loss.
On the other hand, a transfer from amortized cost to FVOCI, the new debt investment
(FVOCI) is recorded at fair value and the difference between fair value and amortized cost is
taken to other comprehensive income. The effective interest rate used as debt investment at
amortized cost remains the same.

From Fair Value through Other Comprehensive Income


In a reclassification from FVOCI to FVPL, the new debt investment (FVPL) is recorded at
fair value and the cumulative unrealized gain/loss in OCI is transferred to profit or loss.
On the other hand, from FVOCI, the accumulated unrealized gain/loss and fair value
adjustment balance (amounts are the same), are eliminated in the accounts. The new debt
investment (at amortized cost) is recorded at the amount of the FVOCI, and the same effective
interest rate is used, as if it had been designated at amortized cost from the date of initial
recognition.

From Fair Value through Profit or Loss


In a reclassification from FVPL to FVOCI the new debt investment (FVOCI) is recorded at
fair value and an effective interest rate is calculated based on the fair value on the date of
reclassification.
On the other hand, from FVPL, the new debt investment (at amortized cost) is recorded
at fair value, that serves as the initial cost and an effective interest rate is calculated based on the
fair value on the date of reclassification.

FINANCIAL LIABILITIES

Overview
IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statement defines “Liabilities”, as a present obligation of
an entity arising from past transactions or events, the settlement of which is expected to result in
an outflow from the entity of resources embodying economic benefits.

Module Objectives
After successful completion of this module, you should be able to:
❖ understand the nature of financial liabilities;
❖ define liabilities and explain their essential characteristics (IAS 1);
❖ explain the nature of accounts payable, notes payable and bonds payable;
❖ describe the initial recognition of financial liabilities based on IFRS 9;
❖ describe the transactions subsequent to initial recognition of accounts payable, notes
payable and bonds payable;
❖ identify the process of settlement of financial liabilities; and
❖ present financial liabilities and relevant information in the financial statements.

Course Materials:

Essential Characteristics of a Liabilities


1. Present obligation – it may be legal obligation or constructive obligation
o Legal obligation – this is the one that derive from a contract, legislation, or other
operation of law. An obligation may be legally enforceable as a consequence of
binding contract or statutory requirement.
Example is with the accounts payable for goods and services received.
o Constructive obligation – give rise to liabilities by reason of normal business
practice, custom and a desire to maintain good business relations or act in an
equitable manner.
Example, an entity decides as a matter of policy to rectify faults in the products
even when these become apparent after the warranty period has expired.
2. Arises from past event – means that liability is recognized when incurred. The past event
that leads to a legal or constructive obligation is known as the obligating event.
Example, the acquisition of goods gives rise to accounts payable. The obligating event is
the acquisition of goods.
3. Outflow of future economic benefits – means that the liability must be to pay cash, transfer
noncash asset or provide service at some future time.

FINANCIAL LIABILITIES
Under IFRS, a financial liability can be either of the following items:
• A contractual obligation to pay cash to another entity or a potentially unfavorable exchange
of financial assets or financial liabilities with another entity.
• A contract probably to be settled in the entity’s own equity and that is a non-derivative
under which the entity may deliver a variable amount of its own equity instruments, or a
derivative that probably will be settled other than through the exchange of cash or similar
for a fixed amount of the entity’s equity.
However, rights, options and warrants issued by an entity on a pro-rata basis to existing
shareholders to issue own shares of capital are not financial liabilities but are equity.

ACCO 20093: INTERMEDIATE ACCOUNTING 2 40


2nd Sem A.Y.2020-2021
INITIAL RECOGNITION OF FINANCIAL LIABILITIES
Financial liabilities shall recognize in accounting when, and only when, an entity assumes
an obligation to deliver cash or another financial asset.
At initial recognition, an entity measures a financial liability at its fair value plus or minus,
in the case of a financial liability not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are
directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of the financial liability.
For financial liabilities that will be subsequently measured at amortized costs, initial
measurement will be the transaction price minus the cost incurred to received whatever is
considered as a result of incurring the liability.

ACCOUNTS PAYABLE
Accounts payable are trade liabilities arising from the purchase of goods or services that
are consumed or to be sold by the entity in the normal conduct of business.
Accounts payable is considered to be current when it is expected to be realized within one
year or in a normal operating cycle whichever is longer. And if there is no transaction cost,
accounts payable must be initially measured at the transaction price.
The liability for goods purchased must be recorded when the entity acquires from the seller
the significant risks and rewards of ownership of goods. In most cases, this coincides with the
transfer of the legal title or the acquisition of ownership. The transfer of title depends on the terms
of purchase (which could either be FOB shipping point or FOB destination). A purchase made
towards the end of the accounting period, where goods are still in transit, should be recognized
as a liability when the term of shipment is FOB shipping point. The cost of the goods, likewise, is
included in the ending inventory. The record of goods received (inclusion in ending inventory)
should be in agreement with the liability (recognition of accounts payable). Both the liability and
the inventory should be reflected in the financial statements of the proper reporting period.

Illustration:
The balance in Copper Company’s accounts payable account at December 31, 2020 was
1,550,000 before any year-end adjustments relating to the following:
• Goods were in transit from a vendor to Copper on December 31, 2020. The invoice cost
was P70,000 and the goods were shipped FOB shipping point on December 28, 2020.
The goods were received on January 5, 2021.
• Goods shipped FOB shipping point on December 15, 2020 from a vendor to Copper, were
lost in transit. The invoice cost was P43,500. On January 3, 2021, Copper filed a P43,500
claims against the common carrier.
• Goods shipped FOB destination on December 24, 2020, from a vendor to Copper, were
received on January 7, 2021. The invoice cost was P16,500.
What amount should Copper report as accounts payable on its December 31, 2020 statement of
financial position?

Solution:
Accounts Payable – Unadjusted balance 1,550,000
Goods in transit 70,000
Goods lost in transit (FOB Shipping Point) 43,500
Accounts Payable – Adjusted balance 1,663,500

• For goods shipped FOB shipping point – title to the goods passes from seller to the buyer
at the point of shipment or point of delivery while goods shipped FOB destination – title to
the goods passes to the buyer upon receipt of the goods.

ACCO 20093: INTERMEDIATE ACCOUNTING 2 41


2nd Sem A.Y.2020-2021
• The goods shipped FOB shipping point on December 15, 2020 but lost in transit does not
take the liability of Copper Company to the seller.

Methods of Accounting for Accounts Payable:


A. Gross Method
o Accounts payable is recorded without deducting cash discount offered.
o Cash discount is recorded as deduction from cost/expense when taken.
o Yearend adjustment is made for accounts settled in subsequent period within the
discount period
B. Net Method
o Accounts payable is recorded net of cash discount
o Cash discount is recorded as “Purchase Discount Lost” and reported as a Finance
cost, when it is not taken
o Yearend adjustment is made for accounts whose discount period already lapsed

Illustration:
Assume GCQ Company purchased from MECQ Company with an invoice price of P100,000; term
FOB Shipping point, 2/10; n/30. GCQ Company uses periodic inventory system. Entries in the
books of GCQ Company to record the purchase and payment under the gross and net method
are:

Under Net Method, if payment is not made yet at the reporting date and the discount
period has already lapsed, an adjusting entry is needed to record as follows:
Purchase Discount Lost 2,000
Accounts Payable 2,000

This adjusting entry brings the accounts payable balance to P100,000. The adjustment is
made to reflect in the accounts the accurate amount of the resources expected to be given upon
settlement of the obligation in the subsequent period.

Under Gross Method, year-end adjustment is necessary if the account has not yet been
paid at year-end but subsequently settled during the subsequent reporting period within the
discount period. The adjustment is not necessarily made at year-end but is dated at the end of
the year. Adjusting entry is:
Allowance for Purchase Discount XX
Purchase Discount XX

ACCO 20093: INTERMEDIATE ACCOUNTING 2 42


2nd Sem A.Y.2020-2021
The entry reduces the amortized cost of accounts payable to the amount of cash that would be
disbursed to settle the account in the subsequent period. The adjustment also matches properly
the purchase discounts against the recorded purchases in the same reporting period. The account
“Allowance for Purchase Discount” is deducted from Accounts Payable in the statement of
financial position, while the Purchase Discount account reduces the recorded cost of Purchases
that is shown in the statement of comprehensive income. On the first day of the subsequent
reporting period, such adjustment is reversed, so that the payment of account is made in the usual
manner, as follows:
Accounts Payable XX
Purchase Discounts XX
Cash XX

NOTES PAYABLE
Notes Payable are written promises to pay a certain sum of money on a specified future
date. They may arise from purchases, financing, or other transactions. Some industries require
notes as part of the sales/purchases transaction in lieu of the normal extension of open account
credit, this is referred to as trade notes payable. Notes payable to banks or loan companies
generally arise from cash loans and these are classified as non-trade notes payable.
Companies classify notes as short-term or long-term, depending on the payment due date. Trade
notes payable is generally classified as current. Non-trade notes payable that are due and
payable within one year are treated as current. Whereas, if maturing beyond one year, it is
classified as noncurrent liability.
Notes may also be interest-bearing or non-interest-bearing. A non-interest-bearing note does not
explicitly state an interest rate on the face of the note. Interest is still charged, however.
Illustrations: Accounting for Interest-bearing notes payable
1. On July 1, 2020, Smart Company issued a 90-day, 10% notes for P200,000 to SMC Company
to settle its overdue account. (trade notes payable).
The entry by Smart Company to record the issuance of the notes is:
July 1- Accounts Payable 200,000
Notes Payable 200,000

The payment of the notes payable on September 29, its due date was recorded by Smart with
the following entry:
Sept. 29 Notes Payable 200,000
Interest Expense 5,000
Cash 205,000

How to compute for the amount of interest:


Face value of the note P200,000
Multiply by interest rate and term of the note/360 days X 10% X 90/360
Interest of the note for 90 days P5,000

How to determine the due date/maturity date of notes:


Term of the note 90 days
Number of days in July 31
Date of the note, July 1 30
Days in August 31
Due date of note, September 29
Total number of days 90 days

Accounting for noninterest-bearing notes payable


A noninterest-bearing notes payable does not explicitly state an interest rate on the face of
the note. It does not mean, however, that there is no interest imputed on the note. A noninterest-
bearing note is simply written in a form where the interest is imputed on the face value of the note.
Thus, the face value represents the present value of the note plus the imputed interest. The imputed
interest is based on the sound philosophy that no lender would part away with his money or property
interest-free.

ACCO 20093: INTERMEDIATE ACCOUNTING 2 45


2nd Sem A.Y.2020-2021
Non-interest bearing note issued for property
When a non- interest-bearing note is issued for property, the property is recorded at the cash
price of the property. The cash price is assumed to be the present value of the note issued. The
difference between the cash price and the face value of the note issued represents the imputed interest.

Illustrations:
1. On January 1, 2020, SOMO company acquired an equipment with a cash price of P350,000 for
P500,000. SOMO Paid down payment of P100,000 and issued a noninterest-bearing notes
payable for P400,000, payable in 4 equal annual installment of P100,000 every December 31.

The difference between P500,000 and the cash price of P350,000 represents the imputed
interest which is debited to the account discount on notes payable. The discount on notes
payable is periodically amortize by charging it to the account interest expense.

Using the amortization table below, the entries to record the above transaction for year 2020-
2023, are as follows:

On January 1, 2020, SOMO Company acquired an equipment for P1,000,000. The company
issued a noninterest-bearing note for P1,000,000 payable in 5 equal annual payment of
P200,000, every December 31. Assuming that the prevailing interest rate is 10%, the present
value of an ordinary annuity o 1 for 5 year at 10% is 3.7908. The cost of the equipment is equal
to the present value of the notes payable issued, computed as follows:

Annual installment P200,000


Multiplied by the present value factor 3.7908
Present value of the P1 M notes payable P758,160

Face value of the notes payable P1,000,000

Dec. 31,2024 200,000 18,178 181,822 -

Interest is equal to the preceding present value multiplied by the implied interest rate. Thus,
for year 2020, P758,160 x 10% equals P75,816.

Principal is the periodic payment after deducting the interest. Thus, for year 2020, P200,000 –
P75,816 = P124,184.

Present value is the balance of the preceding present value after deducting the portion of
payment applied to principal. Thus, for year 2020, P758,160-P124,184=P633,976.

The present value of the notes payable is equals to face value minus the unamortized discount.
Thus, on December 31, 2020, the present value or carrying value of the notes payable of
P743,787 is P 900,000 minus P156,213. On December 31, 2021, P900,000 minus P81,834

A noninterest-bearing note may also be issued for money borrowed from a bank or a financing
company. The present value of such note is equal to the proceeds received. The difference
between the face value of the note and the proceeds received is the interest which is debited to
the account discount on notes payable.

BONDS PAYABLE
A bond is a certificate of indebtedness whereby the borrower agrees to pay a sum of
money at a specified future date plus periodic interest payments at the stated rate. They are
commonly issued in denominations of P1,000, P5,000, or P10,000, referred to as face value or
par value. A corporation may sell all of its bonds to an investment firm or underwriter, which
resell the bonds to the investing public. Bonds may also be sold directly to the investor.

The contract between the issuing corporation and the bondholder is known as bond
indenture. The bond indenture specifies the terms of the bonds, rights and duties of both
parties, restrictions and all other important details affecting the contracting parties.

Types of bonds:
Term bonds -bonds that mature on a single date.
Serial bonds -bonds that mature in installment.
Secured bonds -are those that provide security and protection to investor in the
form of specific assets of the issuer, such as real estate or other
collateral.
Unsecured bonds -or frequently called debentures, are not protected by the pledge
of any specific asset of the issuing corporation. The issue of
debenture bonds is generally based on the issuer’s favorable
credit rating.
Registered bonds -are bonds whose owner’s names are registered in the books of
the issuing corporation. When these bonds are sold, the transfer
agent cancels the original certificate surrendered by the seller and
a new certificate is issued and registered in the name of the new
bondholder.
Bearer bonds of -are not recorded in the name of the owner. Each bond is
coupon bonds accompanied by coupons representing periodic interest
payments, covering the life of the issue.

Callable/redeemable -are those that give the issuing corporation the right to call or retire
bonds the bonds before maturity date, usually specified on the bond
indenture.
Convertible bonds -are those that give the bond holder the right to exchange their
bond holdings into a specified or predetermined number of the
issuing corporation’s shares of stock.
Zero-interest bonds -are issued at significantly lower than their face value. Total
interest on these bonds during their entire term is paid together
with the principal amount on maturity date.

Bond liabilities are initially recognized at their discounted value, which equals the net
proceeds from their issuance. The issue price is the market price of the bond. The rate of interest
stated on the face of the bond is the contract rate/stated rate or nominal rate of interest. This
interest rate generally depends on the financial condition and earnings of the issuing corporation.

The interest rate which investor are willing to accept at the time of the bond issue depends
upon some factor such as the market evaluation of the quality of the bond issue as evidenced by
the financial strength of the business, the firm’s earnings prospects and the particular provisions
of the bond issue. This rate is referred to as the market rate/yield rate, or effective interest rate.

The sale of bonds at face value implies that the bonds stated interest rate is in agreement
with the market interest rate. Whereas bonds issued above its face value indicates that the bond’s
stated interest rate is higher that the market rate. In this case, the bonds will be sold at a premium.
On the other hand, if the stated rate is lower than the market rate, the issue price would be lower
than its face value. That is, the bonds will be sold at a discount.

Bond prices are quoted in the market as a percentage of face value. For example, a bond
quoted at 97 means that the market price is 97% of face value. Thus, the bond is selling a
discount. A quotation of 105 means that the market price is 105% of the face value. Thus, the
bond is selling at a premium.

Bonds issue costs are expenditures incurred by the issuing company for legal fees, printing and
engraving of bond certificates, taxes, commissions, and other charges. These costs form part of
the initial carrying amount of the bond liability. The net proceeds from bond issue is reduced by
the incurrence of bond issue costs. The amount of bond premium or discount is the difference
between the face value of the bonds and the net proceeds. In effect, bond issue cost is being
offset to the bond premium/discount. The entry to record bond issue cost is:

It is to be noted, that premium amortization decreases both the carrying value of the bond
and the interest expense. On maturity date, after the premium amortization for the entire term of
the bond, its carrying value of the bond will be equal to its face value. Premium on bonds payable
is an addition to the bonds payable. On December 31, 2017, the above bonds were presented in

The amortization of bond premium/discount may be on every interest payment date or at


the end of every year.

Bonds issued between interest payment dates


If bonds are issued between interest payment date, an accrued interest is involved. Normally,
the accrued interest is paid by the buyer or investor. Since the issuing corporation will pay the full
periodic interest on the bonds outstanding at interest date, the bondholder is usually required to
pay the interest that has accrued from the most previous interest date to the date of sale.

Illustration:
On April 1, 2020, a Corporation issued bonds with a face amount of P5,000,000 at
P5,228,000 plus accrued interest. The bonds are dated January 1, 2020, mature in 5 year and
pay 12% interest semiannually on January 1 and July 1.

the investor because on July 1, 2020, the investor will receive interest for 6 months, that is from
January 1 to July 1. On July 1, 2020, the journal entry to record the payment of semiannual
interest is as follows:
Interest Expense 300,000
Cash 300,000
(P5,000,000 x 12% x 6/12 = P300,000)

Retirement of Bonds on maturity date


The issuing corporation may retire bonds at maturity date or before the maturity date. If bonds
are retired at maturity date, any premium or discount must have been completely amortized. The
amount paid to the bond holder equals the face value of the bonds. The retirement is recorded as
an ordinary payment of debt. No gain or loss is recognized upon retirement of bonds on maturity
date. Thus, the entry is:
Bonds Payable xx
Cash xx

Retirement of Bonds prior to maturity date


If bonds are retired before maturity date, the following procedures are to be followed:
a) The amortization of premium/discount must be updated to determine the carrying
value
of the bonds at the date of retirement.
b) Any accrued interest on the retired bonds from the most recent interest payment date
up to the date of retirement must be recorded and paid.
c) Determine the gain/ loss on the early retirement of bonds to be recognized.

TROUBLED-DEBT RESTRUCTURING
Some debtors experience difficulties in meeting their maturing obligations. For this reason, the
creditor may grant concession to the debtor that it would not otherwise grant under normal
conditions. This is called troubled debt restructuring. An entity shall remove a financial liability
from its statement of financial position when it is extinguished.

Troubled debt restructuring may consist of the following:


a. Asset swap
b. Equity swap
c. Modification of terms

a. Asset swap is a settlement of debt by a transfer of non-cash assets like, real estate,
receivables or other assets. Asset swap may result to a gain or loss on the disposal of the
asset used as payment for the debt. A gain or loss is also computed for the difference between
the carrying value of the debt and the fair value of the asset swapped.

Illustration: (Asset swap)


BGC Corporation has outstanding loans payable of P1,000,000 to China Bank with accrued
interest of P100,000, that is due on December 31, 2020. Due to depressed economic conditions,
BGC would not be able to pay this obligation. China Bank agreed to accept from BGC, equipment
with a fair value of P1,000,000 in full settlement of the P1M principal and the P100,000 accrued
interest. The equipment cost P1,500,000 with accumulated depreciation of P300,000.

Computation of gain or loss on the disposal of asset:


Cost of equipment transferred P1,500,000
Less: accumulated depreciation 300,000
Carrying value of equipment P1,200,000
Fair market value of equipment 1,000,000
Loss on disposal of land P200,000

ACCO 20093: INTERMEDIATE ACCOUNTING 2 57


2nd Sem A.Y.2020-2021
If the carrying value of asset disposed is more than its fair market value, the difference is loss.
Whereas, if the market value of asset disposed is more than its carrying value, the difference is
gain.

Computation of gain or loss on debt restructuring:


Amount of Loans payable P1,000,000
Add: Accrued interest 100,000
Carrying value of the liability P1,100,000
Fair market value of asset used as payment 1,000,000
Gain on debt restructuring P100,000

Gain on debt restructuring 100,000

b. Equity Swap- The debtor’s financial liability is extinguished by the issuance of the debtor’s share
capital or other equity instruments.

interest of P1,200,000, that is due on December 31, 2020. Due to depressed economic
conditions, Coie would not be able to pay this obligation. Metrobank agreed to accept Coie’s
180,000 ordinary shares. Coie’s ordinary shares has par value of P50 and a fair market value of
P60.

Carrying value of debt settled (P10,000,000 + 1,200,000) P11,200,000
Fair market value of shares issued (180,000sh. X P60) 10,800,000
Gain on debt restructuring P400,000

Computation of additional paid-in capital on shares issued:


Fair market value of shares issued (180,000sh. X P60) P10,800,000
Par value of shares issued (180,000 sh. X P50) 9,000,000

Ordinary share capital 9,000,000
Additional paid-in capital 1,800,000
Gain on debt restructuring 400,000

c. Modification of terms-debt restructuring under modification of terms may take the form of one or
any combination of the following:
a. Reduction of stated interest rate
b. Reduction of the face amount of the debt
c. Reduction or condonation of accrued interest

ACCO 20093: INTERMEDIATE ACCOUNTING 2 58

Cove Corporation has outstanding loans payable of P10,000,000 to Metrobank with accrued
interest of P1,200,000, that is due on December 31, 2020. Due to depressed economic
conditions, Cove would not be able to pay this obligation. Metrobank agreed to the following
modifications on December 31, 2020.
* Reduction of principal from P10,000,000 to P7,000,000
* Condonation of accrued interest
* Extension of maturity date to December 31, 2022, and
* Reduction of interest rate from 12% to 8%

The gain or loss on debt restructuring is computed as follows:


Discounted amount of the total future payments under the new terms:
Present value of the new principal amount (P7M x 0.63552) P4,448,640
Present value of the interest payments (P7M x 8%) x 3.03735 1,700,916
