in case of service provider, inventories include the cost of the service for which the entity has
not ver recognized the related revenue. The cost of service consists pemonty of the lobos and
other cost of personnel directly engaged in providing the service, including supervisory
personnel and attributable overhead
Classes of Inventories
7hventones are broadly classified into two, namely inventories of a trading concem and
inventores of manufacturing concen
radid bana one that buy and selk goods in the same purchasea. The tem 2 mods generally
applied to goods held by o trading concern
Ammanula twing concem is one that buys goods which are altered or covered inlo 27nuthint
form before they are made available for sale. The terms "finished-goods" goods in procem yow
materials" and "factory gumanufacturing supplies" refer to inventories of a nianulochsing
concem.
Finished goods are completed products which are ready for sale. Finished goods have been
assigned their full share of manufacturing costs
Goods in process or work in process are partially completed products which require. hather
process or work, before they can be sold,
Rave materials are goods that are to be used in the production process. No work of process has
been done on them as yet by the company inventorying them, Broadly raw materiais cover all
materials used in the manufacturing operations but frequently this is restricted to materials that

these supplies may be referred to as indirect materials ndrect because they are not physically
incorporated in the products being lachand, However, there are other manufacturing supplies
like paint and nais which become part of the finished product but since the amounts involved are
insignificant it is improeticol to aftempt to allocate their costs directly to the product these
supplies tind thes way into the product cost os part of the manufacturing overhead
rectory supplies are embraced in the ferm "inventories"because they are currently Consumed

the phease "passirig of title" is a legal language which means the point of time at which
ownership changes"
Therofons, the legal test is as follows is the entity the owner of the goods to be inventored if the
answer is in the affirmative, the goods shoebe includes in me Inventory the answer is in the
negative, the goods shall be excluded that the Invenfory
Applying the legal fest goods owned and on hiand, goods in transit and sold POS Destination,
goods in moral cand purchased FOB Shipping Point, goods out on consignment goods in me
hands of solesmen or agents, and goods held by customers on approvdi or on trial, are all
includible in inventory.
Installment contracts may provide for retention of title by the seller until the sing price is fully
collecteti following the legal test, the goods sold on installment base are stil the property of the
seller and therefore normally includible in his inventory
However, in such a cate, it is an accepted accounting procedure to record the Installment sale
as erregular sale involving defered income on the part of the soller and as a regular purchase of
the port of the buyer. Thus, the goods sold on installment are incided in the inventory of the
buyer and excluded from that of the seller the legattest to the contrary notwithstanding
Under füb destination, owrenship of the goods purchased is transferred only upon receipt of the
good by the buyer of the point of destination, thus, under this the goods in transit are still the
property of the seller.
Accordingly, the seller shall legally be responsible for freight charges and other oxpenses up to
the point of destination.
On the other hand, if the term is FOB Shipping Point, ownership is transferred upon shipment of
the goock and therefore, the goods in fransit are the property of the buyer.
Accordingly the buyer shall legally responsible for the freight charges and other expenses from
the point of shipment to the point of destination.
In practice, during an accounting period, the accountant normally records purchases wier goods
are received and sales when goods are shipped, regardless of the precise monent of which fitte
passed.
This procatione is expedient and no material misstatements occur in the financial dotements
because title usually passes in the same accounting period.
However, the accountant should carefully analyze the invoice terms of goods that are in transit
of the end of the accounting period to determine who has legal title.
Accordingly, adjustments are in order if errors are committed in recording purchases and sales

The cost measured under the net method represents the cash equivalent price on the date of
payment and therefore the theoretically correct historical cost
Technically, the gross method violates the matching principle because discounts are recorded
only when faken of when cash is paid rather than when purchases that give rise to the discounts
are made.
Moreover, this procedure does not allocate discounts faken between goods sold and goods on
hand.
Despite its theoretical shortcomings. the gross method is supported on practical grounds move
convenient than the net method from a bookkeeping standpoint

Specific identification
Specific identification means that specific costs altributed to identifiod items of inventory. The
cost of the inventory is determined by simply multiplying the units on hand by their actuor unt
cost. This requires records which will clearly determine the actual costs of goods on hand
PAS2, porograph 23, provides that this method is appropriate for inventories that are
segregated for a specific project and the inventories that are not ordinanty interchangeable
The specific identification method may be used in either periodic of perpetual inventory systern
the major argument for this method is that the flow of the inventory cost corresponds with the
actual physical flow of the goods. With specific identification, there is an actual determination of
cost of units sold and on hand.
The major argument against this method is that it is very costly to implement even with high-
speed computers.
Standard Costs
Standard costs are "predetermine product costs established on the bass of normal Invel of
materials and supplies, labor, efficiency and capacity utilization"
Observe that a standard cost is predetermined, and once determined, is applied to all inventory
movements inventories, goods available for sale, purchases and goods sold or placed in
production.
PAS 2, paragraph 21, states that the standard cost method may be used for convenience if the
results approximate cost. However, the standard set should be realistically attainable and are
reviewed and revised regularly in the light of current conditions,
Standard costing is taken up in a higher accounting subject and is not discussed further in these
materials

Observe the difference between the conservative approach and average cost approach
The corservative approach includes net markup and excludes net markdown in determining the
cost ratio in order to arrive at conservative cost. Notice that the conservative cost is lower than
the average cost or market. Thus, this approach a alio known as the lower of average cost or
market.
On the other hand, the average cost approach includes both net markup and net markdown in
determining the cost ratio.
The reason for such an approach is to arrive at an inventory that will approximate cz equal to
historical cost
PAS 2, paragraph 22, provides that the percentage used under the retail method sholl take into
corisideration that has been marked down to below its original seling price. An average
percentage for each retail department is often used..
This means that the average cost approach shall be applied in conjunction with the retall
Inventory method. Of course, the standard requires either the FIFO or average method as a
cost formula.
1. Gross Method-The accounts receivable and sales are recorded of gross amount of the
invoice. This is the common and widely used method because it a simple to apply
2. Net Method-The accounts receivable and sales are recorded at net amount of the invoice,
meaning the invoice price minus the cash discount

Weighted Average-Periodic
The cost of the beginning inventory plus the fatal cost of purchases during the period divided by
the total unit purchased plus those in the beginning inventary to get a weighted average unit
cost. Such weighted average unit cost is then multiplied by the units on hand to derive the
inventory value.
In other words, the average unit cost is computed by dividing the total cost of goous available
for sale by the total number of units available for sale.

Closerve that the moving average unit cost changes every time there is a new purchase or a
purchase retums. The moving average unit cost is not affected by a sale or a tale retums
In an ideal perpetual system, the stock cards are kept to reflect and control both units and costs.
Consequently, the entity would be able to know the inventory on hand at a particular moment in
time.
In recent years the widespread use of computers has enabled practically all large trading and
manufacturing entities to maintain a perpetual inventory system. With computers the entities can
conveniently and effectively store and retrieve large amount of inventory data,
When the perpetual system is used, a physical count of the units on hand should at least be
made once a year or af frequent intervals to confirm the balances appearing on the stock cards.
The argument for the weighted average method is that it is reintively eaty to ope especially with
computers. Moreover, the weighted average method produces Inventory valuation that
approximates cument volve if there is a rapid femover of inventory
the argument against the weighted average method is that there may be o considerable log
between the current cost and inventory valuation since the average unit cost involves ectly
purchases. When prices are thing, the Inventory valuation bethan cument cost.
The LIFO method lassumes that "the goods last purchased are list sold and comequently the
goods remaining in the inventory of the end of the period ore those first pachased or produced.
The inventory is thus expressed in terms of earlier or old prices and the cost of goods sold it
representative of recent or new prices.
The UPO favon the income statentent because there is matching of cument cost ogning current
revenue, the cost of goods solt being expressed in terms of current or recent cost
The objection of the L'is that the inventory is stated at earlier or older prices and therefore there
may be a significant lag between inventory valuation and current replacement cost
Moreover the ace of UFO permits income monipulation such as by motung year-end purchases
designed to preserve existing inventory layers. At times these purchases may not even be in the
best economic interest of the entity.
Actually, an o perod of sing prices, the UFO method would result to the lowest net income in a
period of declining prices. the LIFO method would result to the highest net income

Agricultural Land
Agricultural land is not deemed a biological asset. The principles espoused in PAS 41 for
biological assets and agricultural produce do not apply to agricultural land.
The requirements of PAS 16 which are applicable to property, plant and equipment apply
equally to agricultural land for purposes of measurement.

For example, the fair value of the land may be deducted from the fair value of the combined
assets to anive at the fair value of the trees in the plantation forest.

9. Employee decounts added to sales. Employee discounts are special discounts usually not
recorded because they are directly deducted from the sales price Only the net sales price it
recorded. Consequently, the amount of sales is understated. Thus the employee discounts are
added back to sales.
10. Normal shortage, shrinkage, spoilage, breakage -This is deducted from goods available for
sale at retall Any normal shortage is usually absorbed or included in cost of goods sold
11. Abnormal shortage, shrinkage, spoilage, breakage - This is deducted from goods available
for sales at both cost and retail so as not to distort the cost ratio. Any abnormal amount is
reported separately as loss.

PFRS9 paragraph 5.1.1, provides that a financial asset shall be recognizeci initially of fair value
plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition,
The fair value of a financial asset is usually the transaction price, meaning, the fair value of the
consideration given.
For Short-term receivables, the fair value is equal to the face value or original invoice amount.
Cash flows relating to short-term receivables are not discounted because the effect of
discounting is usually immaterial
For long-term receivables that are interest-bearing, the fair value is equal to the face
However, for long-term receivables that are noninterest-bearing, the fair value is qual to the
present value of all future cash flows discounted using the prevailing market tute of interest for
similar receivables
Thus, Initially, long-term interest-bearing notes receivable shall be measured at face valve and
long-term noninterest-bearing noles receivable shall be measured of present value.

Its the uneained interest income has a credit balance of P231.800 to be amortized over the term

Since the initial carrying amount of the loan receivable of P4,768.200 is lower than the principal
amount, it means there is a discount and therefore the effective rate must be higher than the

Percent of Sales
The amount of sales for the year is multiplied by a certain rate to get the doubtful accounts
expense. The rate may be applied on credit sales or total sales.
Theoretically, the rate to be used is computed by dividing the bad debt losses in prior yeun by
the charge sales of prior years. The rate thus obtained is multiplied by the Current year's charge
sales to arrive at the doubtful accounts expense.
Practically, however, there is no substantial difference if in the computation of the rate, the basis
is total sales of the prior periods, In such a case, the rate thus oulained is multiplled by the
current year's total sales to get the doubtful accounts expense his procedure of determining the
rate has the advantage of eliminating the extra work of making a record of cash sales and credil
sales, However, this approach may prove unsatisfactory when there is a considerable

Purchase Commitments
Purchase commitmerits are obligations of the entity to acquire certain goods sometime in the
future at a fixed price and fixed quantify. Actually, a burchase contract has already been made
for future gelivery of goods fixed in price and in quantity
Where the purchese commitments are significant or unusual, disclosure is required in the
accompanying notes to financial statements. Any losses which are expected to ome from lem
and noncancelable commifments shall be recognized.
If there is a decline in purchase price after a purchase commitment has been made, a loss is
recorded in the period of the price decline.
Note that a purchase commitment must be noncancelable in order that a loss purchase
commitment can be recognized
Thus if of the end of the reporting period, the purchase price folls below the agreed price the
difference is accounted for as a debit to lass on purchase commitments and a credit to an
estimated liability.
Illustration: the loss on purchase commitment is material and actual in the sense that the
purchase price fals below the agreed price at the end of the reporting period, the same shall be
given accounting recognition. For example, assume contract purchase price of P500.000 and
replacement cost of year-end. P450.000. the market decline of P50.000 is recorded as follows:

Cost of Conversion
the cost of conversion of inventores includes cost directly related to the units of production such
as arect labor. It also includes a systematic allocation of fixed and vanable production overhead
that is incured in converting moterice into finished goods
Fixed production overhead is the indirect cost of production that remans relatively constant
regardless of the volume of production, Examples are depreciation and maintenance of factory
building and equipment, and the cost of factory management and administration.
Variable production overhead & the indirect cost of production that varies directly with the
volume of production. Examples are indirect labor and indirect materials.
The allocation of Rixed production overhead to the cost of convenion is based on the normal
capacity of the production facilities.
Normal capacity the production expected to be achieved on average over a number of periods
or seasons under normal circumstances taking into account the loss of capacity resulting from
planned maintenance,
The amount of fixed overhead allocated to each unit of production is not increased or
consequence of low production or idle plant. Unallocated overhead is recognized on expense in
the period in which it is incurred.
in o period of abnormally high production the amount of fixed overhead allocated to each unit of
production is decreased so that inventories are not measured above

In other words, cost of deposal is necessary for a sale to occur but that would not otherwise

An active market is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability take place with
sufficient regularity and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis
A principal market is the market with the greatest volume and level of activity for the asset or
liability.
2. Level 2 inputs are inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly.
Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets in an active market and quoted prices for

[Link] it necessary to know the approximate value of inventory when it is not possible to
take a physical count, or even if the physical count is posible the same may prove costly,
difficult or incorwenient at the moment.
There are two widely method accepted procedures for approximating the value of inventory,
namely the gross profit method and the retail inventory method.
the approximation or estimation of inventory is made for varled recsons, the most common
reasons for making an estimate of the cost of the goods on hand are
a. The inventory & destroyed by fire and other catastrophe, or theft of the merchandise has
occurred and the amount of inventory is required for insurance purpos
b. A physical count of the goods on hand is made and it is necessary to prove the corectness or
reasonableness of such count by making an estimate. this i known as the gross profit fost in the
accounting parlance.
c. Interim financial statements are prepared and a physical count of the goods on hand is not
necessary either because il may take time to do the same or because only on estimate thereof a
required to fairly present the financial positioni and performance of the entity.
The gross profil method is often used to estimate the value of an inventory from accounting
records without taking physical count. This method is based on the assumption that the rate of
gross profit remains approximately the same from period to period and therefore the ratio of cost
of goods sold to net sales is relatively constant from period to besiod.

Generally accepted accounting principles require the use of the allowance methog because it
conforms with the matching principle. Moreover, accounts receivable would be properly
measured af net realizable value.
Inventories are usually written down to net realeable value on on item by ilem or Individual
basis.
is not appropriate to witte down Inventories based on a classification of Inventory for example,
finished goods of all inventories in a particular industry or geographicios regment
Mosemiats and offenles held of use in production are not written down below cout if the finished
products in which they will be incorporated are expected to be sod of or above cod
However, when a diectele in the price of materials indicates that the cost of the Ensbed
products exceeds net redilarable value, the materials are written down to net realzable value
in such circumstances the replacement cost of materials may be the best evidence of their not
realizace value
if the cost is lower than net realizable value, there is no accounting problem because the
inventory is stated of cost and the increase in value is not recognized
it the net realizoble valve is lower than cost, the inventory is measured of not realkrable value
this case the proper is the proper treatment of the writedown of the inventary to net roofitable
valve,
there are two methock of accounting for the inventory writedown, namely:
Direct Method or Cost of Goods Sold Method-The inventory is recorded at the lower of cost or
not realizable value. Any ipss on inventory writedown is not accounted separately but "burled" in
the cost of goods sold
2. Allowance Method or Loss Method-The inventory is recorded at cost and any loss an
inventory writedown is accounted separately.
In other words, under this method, a loss account "loss an inventory writedowri s debited and a
valuation account "allowance for inventory writedown is credited.
in subsequent years, this allowance account is adjusted upward or downward depending on the
difference between the cost and net realizable value of the Inventory al year-end.
# the required allowance increases, an additional loss is recognized. If the required allowance
decreases, a gain on reversal of inventory writedown is recorded. Hewever, the gain is limited
only to the extent of the allowance balonce
Preferably, the allowance method is used in order that the effects of writedown and reversal of
writedown can be clearly identified
As a matter of fact, PAS 2, paragraph 36, requires disclosure of the amount of any Inventory
wrifedown and the amount of any reversal of inventory writedown

such scores allowances is considered and therefore deducted from the sales of P1.000.000. the
computation is revised as follows:
#700.000
400.000
Ending inventory
70.000
The above consulation ands an ending inventory simply because of the sales allowances is
coroidered. Such ending inventory is incomect because there is no actual inventory-in sales
attowances, there is no physical transfer of goods from the customer but a mere reduction in the
sales price

The retail inventory method is the other method of estimating the value of inventory
PAS-2, paragraph 22, provides that this method is often used in the retail industry for measuring
inventory of large number of rapidly changing items with similor margin for which it is
impracticable to use other costing method.
The retail inventory method is generally employed by department stores supermarkets and
other retail concerns where there B a wide variety of goods. This is so bec DAG Bunly track of

two systems are clled in accounting for inventories, namely periodic system and perpetual
system
The predodic systems calls for the physical counting of goods on hand of the end of the
uccounting period to determine quantities. The quantities are then multiplied by the
corresponding unit costs to get the inventory value for balance sheel purposes. This approach
gives actual or physical inventories.
The periodic inventory procedure is generally used when the individual inventory items furn over
rapidly and have small peso investment such that it may prove impractical or inconvenient to
record inventory inflow and outflow, such as groceries, hardware and auto parts
On the other hand, the perpetual system requires the maintenance of records called stock cards
that usually offer a running summary of the inventory inflow and outflow. Inventory increases
and decreases are reflected in the stock cards and the resulting balance represents the
inventory. This approach gives book or perpetual inventorias.
The perpetual inventory procedure is commonly used where the inventory items freated
individually represent a relatively large peso investment such as jewelry and cors. This
procedure is designed for control purposes.

Measurement of Agricultural Produce
Agricultural produce growing on bearer plant is measured of fair value les co of disposal with
changes recognized in profit or loss os the produce grows.
In other words, agricultural produce is measurect of the end of each reporting period pear to
harvest of for value less cost of daposal
b. Harvested produce
Harvested produce is measured at fair value Miss cost of disposal at the point of harvest
IAS 41 provides that the fair value of agricultural produce of the point of harvest can always be
measured reliably
The fair value less cost of disposal of the point of harvest is deemed cost of inventories on the
date IAS 2 Inventories is applied.
Bearer Animals
Bearer onirhols, like bearer plants, may be held solely for the produce that they bea
However, bearer animals have been explicitly excluded from the IASB amendment and will
continue to be accounted for under IAS 41
The reason is that the measurement model would become more complex if applies to bearer
animal.
Managing recre forat activities, for example, gome parks and zaos, is not agricultural activity
The reason is that there is no management of the transformation of the biological asset but
simply control of the number of animals.
The natural breeding that takes place is not a managed activity and is incident only to the main
activity of providing a recreational facility.
Accordingly, animals related to recreational activities shall be accounted for in accordance with
PAS 16. Property, Plant and Equipment,
in the December 31, 2024 statement of financial position, the biological assets shall be

The allowance for doubtful account normally has a credit balance. However in certain iratonces,
it may have a debil balance because it may be the policy of the entity to adjust the allowance of

doubtful accounts expense to be recorded.
However, the allowance for doubtful accounts should have an adjusted balance of P70.000 the
beginning balance of P20.000 plus the adjustment of P50.000.
As pointed out earlier, the percent of sales method of estimating doubtful accounts has the
disadvantage of the allowance for doubtful accounts balance being inadequate or excessive.
Aging the accounts is then necessary to test the rerasonableness of the allowance.
When the allowance is inadequate or excessive, a question arises as to the proper treatment of
the discrepancy, whether to consider it as an error or an ordinary income statement item.
The correction is to be reported in the income statement either as addition to or subtraction from
doubtful accounts expense. The reason is that the correction & the natural result of a change in

Amendment for Bearer Plants

The IASB decided that bearer plants should now be accounted for in the same way as property,
plant and equipment in AS is because the operation of bedrer plants similar to that of
manulacturing
Bearer plants are used solely to grow agricultural produce over several periods
At the end of their productive life, the bearer plarits are usually scrapped
Once a bearer plant is mature, apart from bearing produce, the biological transformation is no
longer significant in generating future economic benefit:
The only significant future economic benefit it generates comes from the agriculturos produce it
creates
The agricultural produce growing on bearer plants remains within the scope of IAS 41
In other words, the agricultural produce as it grows is measured at the end of each reporting
period prior to harvest at fair value less cost of disposal
The fair value less cost of disposal at the point of harvest is the deemed cost of inventory.
c. Has a remote likelihood of being sold as agricultural produce, except for incidental scrap
sales.
In other words, a bearer plant is a living plant that is used solely to grow agricultural produce
over the productive life.
A bearer plant that no longer bears produce is commonly cut down and sold as scrap of the end
of the productive life.
The incidental scrap sales would not prevent the plant from being a bearer plant
Sales allowances and sales discounts are ignored that is not deducted from so The reason is
that while these items decrease the amount of sales, they do not affect the physical volume of

The above approach is defended on the ground that the overdte note has lost part of its status
as a negotiable instrument and really represents only an ordinary claim against the maker.
Conceptucilly, noltes receivable shall be measured inilicily of present value. The present value
is the sum of all future cash flows discounted using the prevalling market rate of interest for
similar notes. The prevailing market rate of interest is actually the effective interest rate
However, short-term notes receivable are measured at face value, Cash flows relating to short-
tom notes receivable are not discounted because the effect of decounting is usually not material
The initial measurement of long-term notes will depend on whether the notes are ndwest-
bearing or ngrinterest-bearing.
Interest beating long-term notes are measured af face value which is actually the present value
upon issuance
Noninterest-bearing long-term notes are measured at present value which is the aliscounted
value of the future cash flows using the effective vifèrest rate.
Actually, the term "noninterest-bearing" is a misnomer because all notes implicitly contain
interest, is simply a case of the "interest being included in the face value" rather than being
stated as a separate rate.
Subsequent Measurement
The armadlavor cost is the amount of which the receivable is measured initially meu pincipal
repayment, plurteminin the cum Active amortization of any difference between the initial carrying
amount and the principal maturity amoun minus the reduction for impairment or uncollectibility.
for long-term noninterest-bearing notes receivable, the amortized cost is the present value plus

Accordingly, only long-term notes receivable will be discussed in conjunction with the present

Most intercorporate investments are acquired sirripily as means of accnang reg income in the

However, in cedan circumstances, an entity may purchase enough shares of anather enlily in
order to exert significant influence or control over the financial and operating policies of the

Definitions
Significant influence is the power to participate in the financialand optrallisa col decisions of the

Control is the how to govem the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain
benefits from its activities.
Associate is an entity, including ahsumincorporated entity such appartientlig over which the

Significant Influence
The assessment of significant influence is a matter of judgment. However, PAS 28. paragraph
5, provides a practical guidance to assist management in making such assessment.
It the investor holds directly or indirectly through subsidiaries 20% or more of the voting power
of the investere it is presumed that the investor has significant Influence, unless it can be clearly
demonstrated that this is not the casey
3.
Conversely. If the investor holds, directly or indirectly Through subsidiaries less than 20% of the
voting power of the Investee is presumed that the investor does not have significant influence,
unless such influence can be clearly demonstrated?
Beyond the mere 20% threshold of ownership, the existence of significant influence by an
investor is usually evidenced in one or more of the following factors

The pont & that the urvealized profit must be eliminated in determining the investor's share in
the profit or loss of the associate.
There is no good argument for this approach apart from simplicity and the economi retationship
of the investor and the associate viewed as a "single economic entity
20
The point is that the unrealized profit must be eliminated in determining the investor's share in
the profit or lost of me associate.
The investor's share in the profit of the associate is adjusted even if the profit is made by the
investor and the profit of the associate is unaffected by the transaction.
This seems to be illogical but it is the "prescription" of Paragraph 28 of PAS 28. The only
plausible explanation is the economic relationship of the investor and the associate viewed as a
"single economic entity".
On January 1, 2024, an investor acquired 20% interest in an associate. During the year, the
investee sold an equipment with carrying amount of P4,500.000 to the investor for P7,000,000.
The equipment has a remaining useful lite of five years. The investee reported net income of
P6.000.000 for 2024. Ignoring income tax the Investor's share in the profit of the associate in
2024 is determined as follows:
P6,000,000
Carrying amount
P4,000,000
P 800.000
P7,000,000
14.500.000)
Note that the profit on sale of the equipment is unrealized because the equipment is not sold to
an unrelated party.
P2.500.000
The profit on the sale of equipment is realized as the asset is used. The realized profit is
measured by the depreciation of the asset. Thus, as the equipment is depreciated on a straight
line basis over the 5-year period, one-fitth of the profit is also realized each year. After a 5-year
period, the whole of the profil 's realized.
PFRS 9, paragraph 4.1.2 proveches that a financial onset shall be measured al amortized cost if
both of the following conditions are met
a. The business model is to hold the financial osselin order to collect contactus Cash Bows on
specified agles
6. The contractual cash flows are solely payments of principal and intersanton principal amount
outstanding.
In other words, the business model is to collect contractual cash flows if the contractual cash
flows are solely payments of principal and interest in such a cove the financial asset shall be
measured at amortized cost.
Examples of financial assets of amortized cost are investments in bonds and other debt
instruments.
PFRS 9. paragraph 4.1.4, provides that by residual definition or by default, financial assets that
do not meet the conditions for amortized cost measurement shall be measured at fair value.
What is a Bond?
1
"A bond is a formal unconditional promise made under seal to pay a specified sum of money of
a determinable future date, and to make periodic interest payments at a stated rate until the
principal sumis paid".
In simple language, a band is a contract of debt whereby one party called the issuer borrows
fund from another party catted the investor. Thus, a bond is a debt security because the
bondholder is a creditor and the issuer is a debtor.
A bond is evidenced by a certificate and the contractual agreement between the issuer and
investor is contained in another document known as "bond indenture
A bond is issued in small denomination of P100, P1,000 or P10,000 to enable more investors to
purchase the bond issue.
For instance, a P50,000,000 bond issue may be issued in denomination of P1.000. Thus, there
shall 50.000 bonds with face of P1,000 each,
Of course, there are certain bonds that pay interest annually or at the end of the bond year.
Amortization of Premium or Discount
The standard requires that investment in bonds shall be measured subsequently of amortized
cost. Thires that investment in bonds of discount on the ar quisition of lang Term investment in
bonds must be amortized.
Defini
Borid premium or discount is amortized over the life of the bonds. On the part of the bondholder,
the life of the bonds is from the date of acquisition to the date of maturity.
Ther
Amortization is done through the interest income account, the proforma entry for the
amortization is:
Amortization may be made an interest dates or at the end of the accounting period If
amortization is made on every interest date, it would still be necessary to record amortization at
the end of the period should there be accrued interest. Egr this reason, it is more convenient to
record the amortization at the end of the accounting period. Unless otherwise indicated, in
succeeding illustrations. amortization is made at the end of the accounting period.
Philosophy on Amortization
The reason for amortization of bond premium or discount is to bring the investment balance to
face value on the date of maturity so that when the bonds are redeemed on the date of maturity,
the entry will simply be a debit to cash and a credit to investment in bonds of face value
The bondholder is a creditor and will collect on the date of maturity an amount equal only to the
face value of the bonds no more and no less. Accordingly, bond premium is a loss on the part of
the bondholder because he paid more than what he can collect on the date of maturity. Such
loss is not recognized outright bul allocated over the life of the bonds to be offset against the
interest income to be derived from the bond investment.
On the other hand, bond discount is a gain on the part of the bondholder because he paid less
than what he will collect on the date of maturity. Such gain is not recognized outright but
allocated over the life of the bonds to be added to the interest income derived from the bond
investment.
Such process of allocating the bond premium as deduction from the interest income and the
bond discount as addition to interest income is what is traditionally called amortization.
What is the purchase price of the bonds if they were purchased on January 1, 2025 assuming
the following datall
P3.000.000

Solution
1. Find the present value of an ordinary annuity of I for 4 interest periods (2 years). using the
semiannual effective rate of 3% per interest period. The present value factor of an ordinary
annuity of 1 for 4 periods at 3% is 3.7171.
P 120,000
Semiannual effective rate times face value (3% x 3.000.000)

Difference
P 30,000
3. 3.7171 times P30.000 equals P111.513. This amount is a premium because the effective rate
is lower than the nominal rate.
Another approach
The market price of bonds is equal to the present value of the principal plus the present value of
future interest payments using the effective rate. The following present value factors are
necessary:
3.7171
0.8885
P2,665,500
446.052
P3,111,542
There is a difference of P29 between P3,111,542 and P3,111,513 due to rounding of present
value factors.

In other words, trading securities are debt and equity securities that are purchased with the
intent of selling them in the "near term or very soon. These securities are generally purchased
and sold in the exchange market to generate short-term gains or profits Trading securities are
classified as current assets.
An example is a stock broker that holds an "inventory of securities for sale to its customers shall
classify them as trading-securities
Another example is a bank that holds securities for active and frequent buying and selling in
order to generate profits of short-term differences in price also shall classify them as frading
securities.
At initial recognition, PFRS 9. paragraph 5.7.5. provides that an entity may make ag irrevocable
election to present in other comprehensive income or OCI subsequent changes in fair value of
an Investment in equity Instrument is not held for trading.
This irrevocable approach is designed to impose discipline in accounting for nontrading equity
investment.
The amount recognized in other comprehensive income is not reclassified to [Link] loss under
any circumstances
If the investment in equity instrument is held for trading. subsequent changes in fair. value are
always included in profit or loss.

An accounting problem antes the investor povi more or less for an investment than the crying

For instance, if the eaming potential of the investee is abinormally high, the current value of the
investee's net cases a frequently higher than ther complig omend
If the inventor pays more than the book value of the net quets acaqd the difference a commonly
known as "excess of cost over book value" This excess may be afhibuted to the following
D. Goodwill
if the assets of the investee are foiny valued, gocountants frequently attribule the excess of cost
over book value of the underlying net assets to goodwill
If the excess is attributable to undervaluation of land, it is not amortized because the land is
nondepreciable. The amount & expensed when the land is sold.
If the excess is aftributable to Inventory, the amount is expensed when the inventory is already
sold.
If the excess is attributable to goodwill, it is included in the carrying amount of the Investment
and not amortized
However, the entire investment in associate including the goodwill is tested for impairment at
the end of each reporting period.
Illustration: On January I of the current year, an investor purchased 20% of the outstanding
ordinary shares of an investee for P5.000.000. The net assels of the investee on the date of
acquisition are fairly valued except for a depreciable asset for which the fair value is P.000.000
greater than its carrying omount. Anywemoining excess is attritiutable to goodwill.
The book value of the investee's shareholders' equity was P20,000,000, the investor therefore
paid P1,000,000 in excess of the book of net assets, computed as follows:
Acquisition cost
P5.000.000

2.000.000) Goodwill-remairider

The entry to amortize ine "excess of cost attributable to the undervaluation of depreciable asset
is as follows:
Investment Income
P80.000
P80.000
when depreciable and intangible assets of the invedee ore undervalu depreciation and
amortization are naturally undentated resulting to overstatement of the investee's net income.
Thus, the investor should decrease investment income.
Again, the "excess of cost atributable to goodwill is not amortized. The goodwillis included in the
carrying amount of the investment in associate.
As amenciad. PAS 28. paragraph 32, provides that any excess of the investor's shoe of the net
fair value of the associate's identifiable assets and liabilities over the cost of the investment is
included as income in the determination of the investor's share of The associate's prolif or loss
in the period in which the investment is acquired
9
16
Appropriate adjustments to the investor's share of the associate's profit or loss after acquisition
are also made to account, for example for depreciation of depreciable assets based on their for
value on the acquisition date.
Illustration: On January I of the current year, an investor purchased 40%-elthe ordinary shares
outstanding of an investee for P15,000.000 when the net assets of the Investee amounted to
P30.000.000.
At acquisition date, the carrying amounts of the identifiable assets and liabilities of the investee
wore equal to their fair value, except for the following:
a. Equipment whose fair value was P2.000.000 greater than its carrying amount
b. Inventory whose fair value was P2.500.000 greater than its cost.
The equipment has a remaining life of 4 years and the inventory was all sold during the current
year.
سهL
The investee reported net income of P20,000,000 for the current year and paid P5.000.000
cash dividend at year-end.
Computation:

Therefore, it is not necessary to assess financial asset measured of fair value through profit or
loss and equity investment measured at fair value through other comprehensive income for
impairment.
Impairment-Debt investments
PERS 9. povegroon 5:51. Deovide that an entity shall be recognize a loss allowance
Porograph 3.3.3 provides that an endily shall measure the loss allowance for a financial
instrument of an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses if the credit risk on that
financial instrument has increased significantly since initially recognition
Expected credit losses are an estimate of credit loss over the life of the financial instrument
Measurement of Impairment
c. Reasonable and supportable information that is available without undue cost or effort.
PFRS 9 does not prescribe particular method of measuring expected credit losses.
An entity may use various sources of data both internal or entity-specific and extemal in
measuring expected credit losses.
The amount of impairment loss can be measured as the difference between the carrying
amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the original effective
rate
Convertible Bonds
Convertible blonds are those which give the bondheiden the right to exchange the bonds for
share capital of therngormy of any lime prior to matunty
Defin
The exatence of the conversion feature generały precludes cratification of the convertible bonds
as held to maturity investment because that would be inconsstent with paying for the conversion
feature, meaning the right to converf into eculty shares before maturity.
Accordingly, investment in convertible bonds can be classified as avaliable for sale or held for
trading depending on management intent
Serial Bonds
Serial bonch are those which have a series of maturity dates or thoer bands whic cre payable in
installments, Bonds with a single maturity date ore called "term bonds
For instance, a P1,000,000 bond issued on January 1, 2025 may provide that the bond will
mature as follows:
Terms of Bonds
Callable and convertible bonds can be classified as term bonds despite of their special features.
Methods of Amortization
Three methods are available for the amortization of bond premium or bond discount. namely:
a. Straight line method - This method provides for an equal amount of premium or discount
amortization each accounting period. It is the method used in previous illustrations.
c. Effective interest method or simply "interest method" or scientific method. This method
provides for an increasing amount of amortization.
In accordance with PFRS 9, bond investments shall be classified as financial assets measured
at amortized using the effective interest method. This means that any discount or premium must
be amortized using the effective interest method.
PFRS 9. paragraph 4.1.2A, provides that a financial asset shall be measured at fair value
through other comprehensive income if both of the following conditions are met:
a. The business model is achieved both by collecting contractual cash flows and by selling the
financial asset.
b. The contractual cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal
outstanding.
Note that the business model includes selling of the financial asset in addition to collecting
contractual cash flows.
In this case, interest income is recognized using the effective interest method as in amortized
cost measurement.
On derecognition, the cumulative gain or loss recognized in other comprehensive income shall
be reclassified to profit or loss.

1. The most recent available financial statements of the associate are used by the investor in
applying the equity method.
When the reporting dates of the investor and the investee are different, the associate shall
prepare for the use of the investor financial statements as of the same date as the financial
statements of the investor unless it is impractical to do 50.
In any case, the difference between the reporting date of the associate and that of the investor
shall be no more than three months.
2. If an associate uses accounting policies other than those of the investor adjustments shall be
made to conform the associate's accounting policies to those of the investor.
3. Profits and [Link] from upstream and downstream transactions between an investor
and an associate are recognized in the investor's financial statements only to the extent of the
unrelated investor's interests in the associate.
"Upstream" transactions are sales of assets from an associate to the investor, For example, the
associate seils inventory or noncurrent asset to the investor
The unrealized profit from these transactions must be eliminated in determining the investor's
share in the profit or loss of the associate.
a. Nominal or coupon rate or stated rate is the rate of interest appearing on the face of the
bonds. The nominal rate multiplied by the face of the bonds gives the period interest received by
the bondholder.
11
b: Effective or yield rate or market rate is the true or actual rate of interest which boridholder
egens on his investment. The effective-rate multiplier by the carving amount of the bond
investment gives the actual interest income. The carrying amount of the bonds is the initial cost
grattaattly increased by periodic amortization of discount or gradually reduced by periodic
amortization of premium
The effective rate and the nominal rate are the same if the cost of the bond investment is equal
to the face value.
When the bonds are acquired at a premium, the effective rate is lower than the nominal rate.
The reason is that the premium is a loss on the part of the bondholder.
On the other hand, when the bonds are acquired at a discount, the effective rate is higher than
the nominal rate. The reason is that the discount is a gain on the part of the bondholder.
The effective interest method simply requires the comparison between the interest eamed or
interest income and the interest received. The difference between the two represents the
premium or discount amortization.
Interest earned or interest income is computed by multiplying the effective rate by the carrying
amount of the bonti investment.
Interest received is computed by multiplying the nominal rate al rate by the face value of the
bonds.
20
The carrying amount of the bond investment is the initial cost gradually increased by penodic
amortization of discount or gradually reduced by periodic amortization of premium

Share Spill
A corporation may restucture its capillal by effecting a change in the number of shares without
capilalking retained eamings or changing the amount of its legol capital. This restructuring a
known as share split.
Split up is a fransaction whereby the outstanding shores are called in and replaced by a larger
number, accompanied by a reduction in the par or stated value of fach share. For instance, if a
shareholder owns 10.000 shares and the share is spill up 5-for 1. the shareholder receives
50.000 new shares in exchange for the 10.000 original shares.
Split down is the reverse of the split up. It is a transaction whereby the outstanding shares are
called in and replaced by smaller number, accompanied by an increase the por or stated value.
For instance, if a shareholder owns 10.000 shares and the share is split down 5 for the
shareholder receives 2.000 new shares in exchange for the 10.000 old shores.
Share split does not affect the total cost of investment. But there is a [Link] increase in
the cost per share because the total cost now will apply to a larger or smaller number of shares.
Only a memorandum entry is made to record the receipt of new shares by virtue of share split.
For instance, assume that a shareholder owns 10,000 [Link] P2,000,000.
Subsequently, the shareholder receives notice that share is split-2-font: The receipt of new
shares is recorded as follows:
Received 20.000 new shares as a result of a 2-for-1 split of 10,000 original shares."
The total cost of P2,000,000 will now apply to 20.000 shares or a cost per share of P100. Such
cost would then be the basis for subsequent transactions.
Special Assessments
Special assessments are additional capital contribution of the shareholders. On the part of the
shareholders, special assessments are recorded as additional cost of the investment and on the
part of the entity as share premium or additional paid in capital.
For instance, assume that a shareholder owns 10,000 shares costing P500,000. Subsequently,
the directors pass a resolution to the effect that the shareholders shall contribute P5 for each
share held to the corporation.
On the part of the shareholder, the payment of the assessment is recorded as follows:

Introduction
Investment in equity securities, as the title suggests, means that the acquisition of equity
securities for the purpose of accruing income through dividends and increase omarket value, or
coriholling another entity
Equity secunties represent ownership shares such as ordinary shares and other share capdal.
They may also represent sights and options to acquire ownership shores. The owners of eauty
secunties are legally known as shareholders
A share is the ownership Interest or right of a shareholder in on entity. This right pertains to the
shore in eamings, election of directors, subscription for additional shares and share in net
assets upon Rquidation: The share is evidenced by an instrument called share certificate. 2
The Application Guidance of PFRS 9 provides that when a financial asset is recognized initially,
an entity shall measure il at fair value plus transaction costs that ore directly attributable to the
acquisition.
The fair value is usually the transaction price, meaning the fair value of the consideration
received.
As a rule ramachon coytt that are directly aftributable to the acquisition of the financial
assel'shall be capitalized as cost of the linancial asset
However, transaction costs directly aftributable to the acquisition of financial asset held for
trading or financial asset at fair value through profit or loss shall be expensed Immediately.
If the equity securities are acquired in an exchange, the acquisition costia determined by
reference to the fair value of the asset given. It may be appropriate to consider the fair value of
securities received if it is more clearly evident in the abserice of the fair value, the cost or
carrying amount of the asset given is the basis for recording.
If two or more equity securities are acquired at a single cost or lump sum, the single cost is
allocated to the securities acquired on the basis of their fair value only one security has a known
market value, an amount is allocated to the security with a known market value equal to its
market value and the remainder of the single cost to the other security with no known market
value.
Investment Categories
Investments in equity securities are accounted for as one of the following categories:
a. Trading securities or financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
c. Investment in associate
d. Investment in subsidiary
Trading equity securities and financial assets at fair value-through other comprehensive income
are already discussed exhaustively in Chapter 8. Investment in associate-is-discussed in
Chapter 10 and investment in subsidiary is taken up in an advanced accounting subject.
Investee With Heavy Losses
Under the equity method. PAS 28, paragraph 38 provides that if an investor's share of Josses of
an associate equals or exceeds the carrying amount of an investment, the investor discontinues
recognizing its share of further losses. The investment is reported of nitor zero value.
The carrying amount of the investment in associate is not just the balance of the account
"investment in associate".
The carrying amount of the investment in associate also includes other long-term interests in
associate, such as long-term receivables, loans and advances.

Accounting for Stock Dividends
Stock dividends of the same class are recorded only by means of a memorandum entry on the
part of the shareholder. An example of a memorandum entry for the receipt of stock dividendis
Received 2.000 shares representing 20% stock dividends on 10.000 original shares held.
Shares now held. 12,000
Stock dividends do not affect the total cost of the investment but reduce the cost of the
investment per shore. The original cost after the stock dividends will now apply to a greater
number of shares, original shares plus those received as stock dividends
For instance, assume that a shareholder owns 10.000 shares costing P120 each or a loful cost
of P1,200,000. Subsequently, the shareholder receives 20% stock dividend or 2,000 shares.
The effect of this stock dividend may be shown as follows:

10.000
Stock dividends

1.200.000

The total cost of P1.200.000 apples now to the 12,000 shares giving an adjusted cost per share
of P100, The cost per share is reduced from P120 to P100.
A shareholder may receive a stock dividend which is different from the original shares
Again, stock dividends of different class are not income. However, the [Link] of the
investment is apportioned between the original shtres and the stock dividends on the basis of
market value of each at the date of receipt.
To illustrate, assume that a shareholder owns 10.000 ordinary shares costing P800.000.
Subsequerifly, the shareholder receives 10% stock dividend in the form of preference share.
The market values of shares are ordinary, P150. and preference, P100.

The tractions are developed from the market value of the shares and multiplied by the original

"Downstream" transactions are sales from the investor to the associate. For example, the
investor sells inventory or noncurrent assets to an associate. The unrealized profit from these
transactions must be eliminated as prescribed by paragraph 28 of PAS 28.
When investment in bonds is sold prior to the date of maturity, it is necessary to determine the
book value or carrying value of the bonds to be used as basis in computing gain or loss on the
sale.
In such a case, amortization of the premium or discount, if any, should be recognized up to the
date of sale.
If the sale is between interest dates, the sales price normally includes the accrued interest.
Accordingly, that portion of the sales price pertaining to the accrued interest should be credited
to interest income.
The difference between the sales price, after deducting the accrued interest and the carrying
amount represents the gain or loss on the sale of the bond investment.

Interest Income
An investor may wish to know in advance the total cash outlay for the bond investment at a
specified effective rate of retum.
The procedures for the computation of the purchase price of bonds are:
1. Using the effective rate, find the present value of an ordinary annuity of I for the number of
interest periods involved.
2. Multiply the nominal rate by the face value of the bonds for one interest period. Also multiply
the effective rate by the face value for one interest period. Get the difference between the two
products.
3. The difference computed in no. 2 is multiplied by the present value factor determined in no. 1.
The answer represents either a discount or premium.
If the effective rate is more than the nominal rate the answer in no. 3 is a discount.
If the effective rate is less than the nominal rate the answer in no. 3 is a premium.
4. The face value of the bonds plus premium or minus discount equals the purchase price of the
bond.

Liquidating Dividends
Liquidating dividends represent retum of invested capital, and therefore, are not Income. The
payment may be in the form of cash arnoncosh assets,
xx
Normally, liquidating dividends are paid when the corporation is dissolved and Squidated.
However, in the case of wasting asset corporation or mining entity liquidating dividends may be
paid even before dissolution and liquidation.
Accordingly, when dividends are received from a wasting asset corporation, the dividends are
designated as partly income and artty-eturn of capital test podion, representing a liquidating
dividend should be credited to the investment account
For instance, assume that a shareholder receives a P100.000 dividend, designated as follows:
income. P60,000 and liqbidafing. P40.000. The entry to record the dividend is
Cash
Dividend income

When liquidating dividends exceed the cost of investment, the difference is credited to gain on
investment. On the other hand, when liquidation is completed and the investment cost is not
fully recovered, the balance is written off as loss.
Stock Dividends
Stock dividends are in the form of asuing entity's own shares. The IAS term for stock dividend is
"Danus issue". Shares of another entity declared as dividends are not stock dividends but
properly dividends.
Stock dividends may be the sarne as those held or different from those held.
Stock dividends whether of the same class or different are not income. The reason is that there
is no distribution of the assets of the entity. The assets of the entity are the same before and
after the issuance of the stock dividends. The stock dividends create only a change in the
composition of the shareholders' equity, that is, a transfer from retained eamings to share
capital.
The shareholder receives additional shares but still has the same proportionately equity interest
in the entity. The shareholder may have more shares but at reduced market valüa.
"The Board of Directors of their meeting on November 15. 2024, declared an annuat dividend
on ordinary share of PS, payable on January 30. 2025, to shareholders of record of the close of
the business on January 15, 2025
A question arises as whon to recognize the dividends on the part of the shareholden whether on
the date of declaration, November 15. 2024 or date of record, January 15. 2025 or date or
payment, January 30, 2025.
PAS 18, paragraph 29, provides that "dividends shall be recognized as revenue when the
shareholder's right to receive payment is established".
Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the dividends shall be recognized on the date of
declaration
The reason is that when dividends are declared. the shareholders has already acquired the right
thereto so much so that if the shares are subsequently sold, the sales price normally includes
the accrued dividends. Once a dividend has been declared a legal liability binding on the
corporation is created.
Accordingly, when shares are sold "dividends-on" and the dividends accrued is specifically
included in the sales price, that portion of the sales price pertaining to the accrued dividend
should be credited to dividend income and only the remainder should be used as basis for
determining gain or loss on the sale of share.
For instance, assume that a shareholder owns 1,000 shares costing P100.000. Subsequently,
the shareholder received notice of dividend declaration of PS per share or P5.000.
If prior to record date, the shareholder sells the investment for P150,000 which includes the
dividends of P5.000, the entry to record the sale is:

A financial asset is recognized initially af fair value plus transaction costs directly ottributable to
the acquisition of the financial anset
Accordingly, stock rights as form of financial assets are measured initially at far value
In other words, a portion of the carrying amount of the original investment in equity securities is
allocated to the stock rights at an amount equal to the fair value of the stock right of the time of
acquisition.
The reason for such an allocation is that stock rights are independent of the original shares from
which they are derived.
When stock rights are issued, the investor is now the owner of two financial assets. namoly the
shares and the related stock rights.
Stock rights are normally classified as current assets if the rights are accounted separately.
Stock rights are recognized as embedded derivative but not a "stand-alone derivative. An
embedded derivative is a "component of a hybrid or combined instrument (host contract) with
the effect that some of the cash flows of the combined instrument vary in a way similar to a
stand-alone instrument
PFRS 9. paragraph 4.3.3 further provides that an embedded derivative shall be separated from
the host contract and accounted for separately under certain conditions. Paragraph 4.3.3 further
provides that if the host contract is within the scope of PFRS 9. the classification requirements
of PFRS 9 are applied to the combined host contract in its entirety.
This simply means that if the host contract is a financial asset, the embedded derivative is not
separated.
Moreover, it the host contract is measured at fair value through profit or loss, the embedded
derivative is not accounted for separately.
Accordingly, the stock right as an embedded derivative is not accounted for separately because
the host contract "investment in equity instrument" is a financial cisset.
Approach to be Followed
Admittedly, this subject matter is not a well-settled issue, In fact, PFRS 9. paragraph 4.3.4,
states that "this standard does not address whether an embedded derivative shall be presented
separately on the face of the financial statements".
This being the case, it is believed that the traditional approach of accounting for stock rights
separately shall be followed until the FRSC has issued an interpretation to settle this accounting
issue.
The Board of Directon in their meeting on December 15. 2024 opproved to e shock rights to the

Expration date is the date up to which the stock right shall be exercised. After such date the
stock righh shall be worthless. In the example, the expiry date is March 31 2005
During this period the shares are considered to be selling right-on. This means that the share
and the right are inseparable and are treated as one. In other was the share cannot be sold
without also selling the right or vice-veno
No accounting problem is encountered in this case because the stock rights are not yet received
by the shareholder.
Accordingly, in the event of subsequent sale prior to the record date, the difference between the
sales price and the carrying amount of the investment is simply considered as gain or loss on
sale of investment
For instance, assume that a shareholder owns 5.000 shares costing P500.000. Subsequently,
the shareholder receives nofice of stock rights to subscribe for 1,000 shares at the por value of
P100 per share. Prior to the issuance of the share warrants, the shareholder sells the

now be sold separate from the right or vice-versa
Illustration-Accounted Separately
For instance assume that a shareholder owns 10,000 shares costing P1.800.000.
Subsequently, the shareholder receives share warrants to subscribe for new shares at P100 per

PAS 28. Basis for Conclusion 18, requires an investor that continues to have significant
influence over an associate to apply the equity method even if the gasacinte operating under
severe long term restrictions that significantly impair its ability بعدtransfer funds to the investor.
Significant influence must be lost before the equity method ceases to be applicable
PAS 28, paragraph 22, provides that on the date the significant influence is lost, the investor
shall measure any refained investment in associate at fair value.
The difference between the carrying amount of the investment at the date the significant
infivenice is lost and the for value of the retained investment plus any proceeds received from
disposal of any part interest in the associate, shall be Included in profit or loss.
Of course, the difference between the net proceeds from disposal of part of the investment and
the carrying amount of the investment sold is also included in profit or loss.
Paragraph 22 further provides that the fair value of the investment at the date it ceases to be an
associate shall be regarded as its fair value on initial recognition as a financial assel.
Illustration: An entity purchased 30.000 ordinary shares of the 100.000 outstanding shares of
another entity representing 30% interest several years ago. There was no increase or decrease
in interest since then. Accordingly. The investor applied the equity method of accounting for the
investment. On December 31, 2024, the Investment in associate has a carrying amount of
P6.000.000. On the same date. the investor sold 20.000 shares for net proceeds of P5,000.00D
resulting to a loss of significant influence. The quoted market price for such investment is P260
per share on December 31, 2024.

Initial Measurement
In accordance with Pres 9, paragraph 5.1.1 bond investments are recognized Initially at fair
value pius transaction costs that are dreary attributable to the acquifion
The fair value of the bond investment is usually the fransaction price, meaning the fair value of
the consideration given.
Transaction costs include fees and commission paid to agents advisers, brokers and dealers,
levies by regulatory authorities and securities exchanges, and transfer foxes and dotiet
However, transaction costs attributable to the acquisition of "trading" bond investments are
expensed immediately.
Subsequent Measurement
Subsequent to initial recognition, bond investments are measured and accounted for as follows,
1. Trading band investments are measured at fair value through prolil or loss. When bond
investmant is held for Trading", it is not necessary to amortize any premium or discount.
2. Bond investments are classified as financial assets measured at amortized cost using the
effective interest method.
3. Bond investments are measured at fair value through other comprehensive Income.
Bonds may be acquired on interest date or between interest dates. When bonds aris, acquired
on interest date, there is no accounting problem because the purchase price is initially
recognized as the acquisition cost.
When bonds are acquired between interest dates, meaning the date of acquisition is not any
one of the interest dates, the purchase price normally includes the accrued interest. That portion
of the purchase price representing accrued interest should no be reported as part of the cost of
investment but should be accounted for separately. In effect, in this case, two assets are
acquired famely the bonds cinct The accrued interest.
On the date of acquisition, the accrued interest is charged either to accrued interest receivable
or interest income.
When accrued interest receivable is debited, upon receipt of the first semiannual interest, the
accrued interest receivable account is closed and interest income is Credited for the excess.
When interest income is debited, the receipt of the first Semiannual interest is credited entirely
to interest income
Under PFRS 9 Doragraph 85.1.1, at initial recognition, on entity shall measure o Kinancial asset
of fair value plus, in the case of financial aisel not of fair value through profit or loss, transaction
costs that are directly [Link] the acquisition of the financiar ossel.
The fair value of a financial asset at initial recognition is normally the transaction price, meaning,
the fair value of the consideration received.
17
However, if the financial asset is held for trading or if financial asset is measured at fair value
through profit or loss transaction costs are treated as outright expense. This rule-em cotright
expensing of transaction costs related to financial asset held for trading or financial asset of fair
value through profit or loss is principally prescriptive rather than principle-based. The only
fogical reason is that such transaction costs do not result in increase in future economic benefits
to the entity.
7 Transaction costs include fees and commissions paid to agents, advisers, brokers and dealen,
levies by regulatory agencies and securities exchanges, and fransfer taxes and duties.
Transaction costs do not include debt premiums or discounts, financing costs and internal
administrative or holding costs.
Subsequent Measurement
PFRS 9, paragraph 5.2.1 provides that after initial recognition an entity shall measure a financial
asset at:
Trading Secu
3. Amortized cost
The following financial assets shall be measured at "fair value through profit or loss":
1. Financial assets held for trading or popularly known as "trading securities". These financial
assets are measured at fair value through profit or loss "by requirement", meaning, required by
the standard.
2. All other investment in quoted equity instruments. These financial assets are measured at fair
value through profit or loss "by consequence" in accordance with Application Guidance 85.4.14
of PFRS 9.
3. Financial assets that are irrevocably designated on initial recognition as at fair value through
profit or loss. These financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss "by irrevocable
designation" or "by option". For example, investments in bonds and other debt instruments can
be irrevocably designated as at fair value through profit or loss even if the financial assets
satisfy the amortized cost measurement. This irrevocable designation is the fair value option is
allowed in-eecordance with Paragraph 4.1.5 of PFRS 9.

Statement Classification
4. Investments are classified either as current or noncurrent assets. Current investments are
investments that are by their very nature readily realizable and are intended to be held for not
more than one year.
For instance, trading securities are normally classified as current assets because these
investments are expected to be realized within twelve months after the end of reporting period.
Noncurront or long-term investments are investments other than current investments. This
residuar cdefinition means that the noncurrent investments are intended to be nnot expected to
be realized within twelve months

On January 1, 2024, an investor acquired a 10% interest in an investee for P2,000,000 The
investment is accounted for under the cost method because the investment is unquoted.
On January 1. 2026, the investor acquired a further 20% interest in the investee for P4.000.000.
On such date, the carrying amount of the net assets of the investee is P18.000.000. Any excess
of cost over carrying amount is attributable to on undervalued equipment with remaining useful

On January 1, 2026, the 10% existing investment has a fair value of P2.500.000.

The recoverable amount is measured as the highier between far valve less cost to sel

Far value less cost to sell is the amount obtainable from the sale of the assetin an arm's length

The value in use of an investment in associate is the investor's share in either of the following:
a. Present value of estimated future cash flows expected to be generated by the investee,
including cash flows from operations of the investee and the proceeds) on the ultimate disposal
of the investment.
b. Present value of the estimated future cash flows expected to arise from dividends to be

Financial Instruments
PAS 32 defines a financial instrument as any contract that gives rise to a financial 5 asset of
one entity and a financial llability of aff equity Instrument of another entity
Thus, the term "financial instrument" encompasses a financial asset, a financial sability and an
equity instrument. From the definition, the characteristics of a financial instrument are:
a. There must be a contract.
The contract shall give rise to a financial asset of one party and financial liability or equity
instrument of another entity.
Applying the definition of financial instrument, the following would quality as financial instrument:
1. Cash in the form of notes and coins-This is a financial asset of the holder or bearer and a
financial liability of the issuing government.
2. Cash in the form of checks - This is a financial asset of the payee and a financial liability of
the drawer or issuer.
3. Cash in Bank - This is a financial asset of the depositor and a financial liability of the
depository bank.
4. Trade accounts - This is a financial asset of the seller as accounts receivable and a financial
liability of the customer or buyer as accounts payable.
5. Notes and loans - This is a financial asset of the lender or creditor as notes receivable or
loans receivable and a financial liability of the borrower or debtor as noles payable or loans
payable.
6. Debt securities - This is a financial asset of the investor and a financial liability of the issuer.
7. Equity securities - This is a financial asset of the investor and an equity of the issuer.
Note that most financial instruments involve one party having a contractual right to receive cash
or another financial asset and another party having a contractual abligation to deliver cash or
another financial asset.
Under the Application Guidance 6.4.14 PFRS 9. all investments in equity instruments and
contracts on those instruments must be mesured of for valve

When equity securities are of the same class acquired on different dates at different costs a
problem will oflse as to the determination of cost of securities sold when only a portion of the
securities is subsequently sold.
In such a case the entity shall determine the cost of the securities sold using either the FIFO or
average cost approach.
Cash Dividends
On the part of the shareholder, cash dividends are considered as income and recorded as
follows:
Dividends Receivable
Dividend Income
Costi

Xx
The cash dividends do not affect the investment account. The main problem in accounting for
cash dividends on stock investments is fiming. The questions when are dividends considered
earned? In this connection, three dates are important in accounting for cash dividends, namely:
a. Date of declaration- This is the date on which the payment of dividends is approved by the
Board of Directors.
b. Date of record - This is the date on which the stock and fransfer book of the corporation is
closed for registration. Only those shareholders registered as of this date are entitled to receive
dividends.
c. Date of payment - This is the date on which the dividends declared shall be paid.
Between the date of declaration and the record date, the shores are selling "dividends-on", This
means that when shares are sold after the date of declaration but prior to record date, they carry
with them the right to receive dividends.
Between the date of record and the date of payment, the shares are selling "ex dividend, which
means that the shares can be sold, and still the original shareholder has the right to receive the
dividends on payment date.
On December 31, 2024, the trading securities have a far valuer of P6.000.000 The increase in

on January 1, 2030 or in 5 years.
There is no algebraic or mathematical formula in computing the effective rate on the bonds. The
effective rate is determined by means of "trial and error" or the so called "interpolation process".
In this case, a mathematical table of present value is necessary. Better still, the teacher should
teach the students how to compute the present value factor using an ordinary calculator.
The theory is to find an effective rate that would equate the acquisition cost and the present
value of the future cash flows from the bonds.
Since the acquisition cost is of a discount, the effective rate must be higher than the nominal
rate of 10%

Under the Application Guidance of PFRS 9, paragraph 84.1.1. the entity's business model is
determined by key management personnel,
The term "equity security" encompasses any instrument representing ownership of shares and
right, warrants or options to acquire or dispose of ownership shares at a Vaad or determinable
price.
A share is the ownership interest or right el a shareholder in an entity. The share is Evidenced
by an instrument colleckshare certificate)
This right pertains to the share in earnings, election of directors, subscription for additional
shares and share in net assets upon tiqoidation.
Equity securities do not include redeemable preference share, treasury shares and convertible
debt.
14
A debt security is any security that represents a creditor relationship with an entity. A debt
security usually has a maturity date and a maturity value.
Examples of debt securities include corporate bonds, BSP treasury bills, govemment securities,
commercial papers and preference share with mandatory redemption date or is redeemable at
the option of the holder.
The stock rights received are initially measured at fair value and recorded as follows:
100.000
Note that the shareholder received 10.000 stack rights because the shareholder owned 10.000
shares.
The fair value of the stock rights is 10.000 rights times P10 or P100.000.
Note aso that the original investment account is credited when the rights are received because
the stock rights are "derived" from the original investment,
If the stack rights do not have a market value, the theoretical or parity value of the stock rights is
used in measuring the fair value of the stock rights.
The theoretical or parity value is the assumed value of the right that is derived from the market
value of the share.
The formulas for the computation of the theoretical or parity value of the stock right are:
Markell value of share ex right minus subscription price Number of rights to purchase ane share
Value of one right
For instance, assume that a shareholder owns 10,000 shares costing P2,500,000.
Subsequently, the shareholder receives stock rights to subscribe for new shares at P150 per
share for every five shares held. The market value of the share is P210 per share. The right has
no known market value.
in the absence of the market value of the stock right, the theoretical or parity value is
determined to approximate the fair value of the stock right at the time of acquisition.
if the market value of the share of P210 is right-on, the theoretical value of stock right is
computed as follows:

This approach is delended on the philosophy that the original shares have lost some of their
value because the new shares are offered for sale af a price which is below the current market
price thereby creating dilution in the value of such shares Moreover, such loss is the evidence of
the failure of the shareholder to preserve the original equity interest in the company.
Illustration: Assume that a shareholder acquires 10,000 shares for P1,500,000. Subsequently,
the shareholder receives stock rights to subscribe for new shares ait P100 per share for every
five shares held. The market value of the share ex-right is P140, and the market value of the
tight is P10.
Based on the market value, the cost of the stock right is P100,000 computed by multiplying
10/150 by P1,500,000.

Appendix A of P'FRS 9 in conjunction with PRIS 13 provides a new definition of fair value
Fair value of an asset is price that would be received to sell of asset in an orderly 23 fransaction
between market participants at the measurement date.
The best evidence of fair value is descending hierarchy is the quated price of identical asset in
an active market, The quoted price of similar asset in an active market and the quoted price of
identical and similar asset in an inactive market.
An active market is a market in which transactions take place with sufficient regularity and
volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
Simply stated, fair value is defined as the price agreed upon by a willing buyer-and.g willing
seller in an arm's length transaction.
The buyer and seller who are the market participants must be independent. knowledgeable and
willing meaning not forced or not compelled to enter into the transaction/
Quoted Price
Most often, the fair value of securities is the quoted price in the securities market tou example,
the Philippine Stock Exchange. Thus, the fair value is synonymous with market value of the
securities in the stock market.
If the quoted price pertains to a share or equity security, it means pesos per share. For instance,
if the investment is 10,000 shares of an entity costing P800,000 is quoted at 90. the market
value thereof is P900,000, computed by multiplying 10.000 shares by P90 per share.
If the quoted price pertains to a band or debt security, it means percent of the face value of the
bond. For instance, if the investment in P2,000,000 face value bond of another entity, costing
P1,700.000 is quoted at 90, the market value thereof is P1.800.000, computed by multiplying
the face of P2.000.000 by 90%.
PFRS 9, paragraph 5.6.3. provides that when an entity reclassifies a financial asset of fair value
to financial casel of amortized cost
a. The fair value at the reclassification date becomes the new carrying amount of the financial
asset at amortized cost.
b. The difference between the new carrying amount of the financial asset at amortized cost and
the face value of the financial asset shall be amortized through profit or loss over the remaining
life of the financial asset using the effective interest method
c. An effective interest rate must be determined based on the new carrying amount or fair value
at reclassification date.
Illustration: On January 1, 2024, an entity purchased a portfolio of bonds in accordance with its
business model of mantiging financial assets by selling the bonds in short term or in order to
realize fair value changes. The acquisition cost is P6.000.000 and the face value of bonds is

FVPL means the financial asset is measured at fair value through profit or loss.
During 2024, no securities were sold and on December 31, 2024, the fair value of the bonds is
P5.500.000. The decrease in fair value is recorded as follows:
Unrealized Loss
Financial Asset-FVPL

The unrealized loss is component of profit or loss and therefore reported in the 2024 income
statement.
In December 2025, the entity acquired another entity that manages commercial bonds and has
a business model that holds the bonds in order to collect contractual cash flows
The acquisition of another entity that manages bonds in order to collect contractual cash flows
effectively changes the business model of the entity in acquiring portfolio of bonds.
As a consequence. The portfolio of bonds acquired by the entity is no longer for sale. and the
portfolio is now managed Together with the acquired entity's commercial bonds to collect
contractual cash flows.
When cash dividends are declared and received, it is without doubt that they are ancome. A
problem will atke when shares are receivedin eru of cash dividends declared
If a generally accepted that shares received in lieu of cash dividends are [Link] fair value of
the shares received. The reason is that such shares are in effect properly dividends
in the absence of fair value of shares received, the income is equal to the cash diedenes that
woust have been received.
For instance, cassume that a shareholder owris 10.000 shares costing P1,000,000
Subsequently, the shareholder receives 1,000 shares in lieu of casb dividends +10 pershare the
morket valve per shore is 150. The receipt of the 1000 shores, recorded as follows:
150.000
100.000

۱۲
When stock dividends are declared and received, unquestionably, they are not income. A
problem will arise when cash is received in lieu of stock dividends
For instance assume that a shareholder owns 10,000 shares costing P1,100,000 Subsequently,
the shareholder receives P150,000 cash in lieu of 1,000 shares origirially declared as 10% stock
dividends.
In this case, the "as if" approach is followed. This means that the stock dividends are assumed
to be received and subsequently sold at the cash received. Therefore, a gain ar lass may be
recognized.
14
Thus, the original cost of P1,100,000 applies now to 11.000 shares which is the sum ol the
original 10.000 shares and the 1.000 shares assumed to be received as stock-dividends. The
cost per share would then be P100. The 1,000 shares representing stock dividends are
assumed to be sold for the cash received. The entry to seco the cash receipt is:
Cash
150.000
Gain on investment
50.000
It is to be mentioned that under the ruling of the Bureau of Intermal Revenue, oll cash received,
whether originally designated as cash dividend or stock dividend, is income on the part of the
shareholder.
Thus, under the "BIR" approach, the cash received of P150,000 is simply debited to cash and
credited to dividend income.
However, the "as it" approach is theoretically sound and should be followed for accounting
purposes.
The equity secuilties do not quality os financial asset held for trading, the entity made in

directly attributable to the acquisition. Thus, the Commission and taxes -are part of the initial

On December 31, 2024, the securities have a market value of P1,300,000. The increase in

The Finaricial Asset - FVOCI on December 31, 2024 are carried at the market value of

On December 31, 2025, the securities have a market value of P1.600.000. The Increase in
market value is recorded as follows:
At this point, the Financial Asset - FVOCI is carried at the market value of P1.600,000 and the
total unrealized gain is P500,000 (200,000+300.000).
However, only P300,000 will be shown in the 2025 statement of comprehensive income.
The total amount of P500,000 will appear in the statement of changes in equity.
On July 1, 2026, the securities are sold for P2,000,000. The entry to record the sale is:

PAS 28, paragraph 22, provides that if an investor loses significant influence the investor shall
account for all amounts recognized in other comprehensive income by the associate on the
same basis as would be required if the associate had directly disposed of the related assets.
23 23
In other words, if the gain or loss previously recognized in other comprehensive income by the
associate would be reclassified to profit or loss upon disposal of the related assets, the investor
shall reclassify such gain or loss to profit or loss when the investor loses significant influence
over the associate 1
For example, if an associate has available for sale financial asset and the investor loses
significant influence over the associgte, the investor shall reclassity to profit or loss any gain or
loss previously recognized in other comprehensive income.
When bonds are acquired and classified as financial assets at amortized cost, the bond
investments are classified as noncurrent investments.
The difference is that instead of debiting "trading securities", the debit should be "investment in
bonds" or "financial asset at amortized cost".
Reclassification
PYRS 9. paragraph 4.4 provides that an entity shall reclassity financial asses only when it
changes its business model for managing the financial assets
Where reclassificaftige occurs paragraph 5.6.1 provides that an entity shall apply the
reclassification prospectively from the reclassification date.
The entity shall not restate any previously recognized gains, losses and interest.
As defined in Appendix A of PFRS 9, the "reclassification date" is the first day of the reporting
period following the change in business model that results in an entity reclassifying financial
asset.
This means that if the change in business model is in 2024, the reclassification date January 1,
2025, the first day of the next reporting period.
However, the entity must disclose the change in business model in the 2020 financial
stotements because the change in the entity's business model it [Link] demonstrable
event
The Application Guidance 84.4.1 of PFRS 9 makes it clear that changes in-on entity's business
modelin managing its financial assets are expected to be infrequent.
The Application Guidance 84.4.3 expressly states that the following would not result to a change
in business model:
The classification of financial asset as at, fair value or amortized cost is no longer govemed by
management intent but by the entity's business model in managing financial assets.
c. A transfer of financial asset between parts of the entity with different business models.
a. Equity investment held for trading or measured at FVPL cannot be reclassified by reason of
the consequential requirement of PFRS 9.
c. Only debt investment can be reclassified because the change in business model applies
appropriately to debt investment.

On the part of the shareholder, the redemption of shares is recorded in the same mariner as

is:

Stock Right
When a corporation issues additional or new shares of stock, shareholders of record are given
the legal right to subscribe for the same before the new shares are offered for sale to the public)
Such legal right is called stock right. In law, stock right is known as preemptive right or right of
preemption.. The IAS term for stock right is right issue.
A stock right is inherent in every share. A shareholder receives one right for every share owned,
"Thus, if a shareholder owns 10,000 shares, the shareholder will receive 10,000 stock rights
Stock rights are valuable to shareholders because the price at which the new shores are sold is
generally below the prevailing market price. For instance, the market. value of the share may be
P150 but a shareholder Ihroügh the exercise of stock rights may be required to subscribe only
at the par value of P100.
The purpose of the stock right is to give the shareholders the change to preserve their equity
interest in the corporation.
The ownership of stock rights is evidenced by instruments or certificates called share warrant
PFRS 9 does not address this accounting issue categorically. But unquestionably, a stock right
is a form of a financial asset.
In this regard, this is a divergence of opinion among academicians and theoreticians. There are
two schools of thought on the matter, namely:
PS paragraph 4.1.2. provides that a financial civet sthall be meat of amortized cod if both of the
following conditions are met
a. The business model a to hold the financial asset in order to collect contractual cash flows on
specified dates.
b the contractual cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest on the princibat and
interest on the principal amount outstanding
In other worth the business model is to collect contractual cash flows if the contractual cash
flows are solely payments of principal and interest. In such a case. the financice assets sharbe
measured at amorfized cost.
PFRS 9, paragraph 4.1.2A, provides that financial asset shall be measured at fair value through
other comprehensive income if both of the following conditions are met:
o the business model is achieved both by colecting contractual cash flows and by selling the
financial asset.
b. The contractual cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal
outstanding.
Note that the business model includes selling the financial asset in addition to collecting
contractual cash flows.
In this case, interest income is recognized using the effective interest method as in amortized
cost measurement
On derecognition, the cumulative gain and loss recognized in other comprehensive income shall
be reclassified to profit or loss.
2. Not held for trading-as a rule, at fair value through profit or loss

a. Cash
b. A contractual right to receive cash and another financial asset from another
entity. c. A contractual right to exchange financial instrument with another entity under
conditions that are potentially favorable.
Cash or currency is a financial asset because it represents the medium of exchange and is
therefore the basis on which all transactions are measured and recognized in financial
statements.
A deposit of cash with a bank or similar financial institution is a financial asset because it
represents the contractual right of the depositor to obtain cash from the bank or to draw a check
against the balance in favor of a creditor in payment of a financial liability
But a gold bullion deposited in bank is riot a financiat asset because although it is very precious
the gold is a commodity.
Examples of financial assets representing a contractual right to receive cash in the future are
b. Notes receivable
c. Loans receivable
d. Bonds receivable
In case of exchanges of financial instruments with another entity, conditions are potentially
favorable when such exchanges will result to gain or additional cash inflow to the entity.
Conversely, conditions are unfavorable when such exchanges will result to Toss or additional
cash outflow to the entity.
Ari example of a favorable condition is an option held by the holder to purchase shares of
another entity at less than market price.
Investments in shares or other equity instruments issued by other entities, for example. trading
and available for sale equity securities, can be classified as financial assets.
Physical assets, such as inventory, property, plant and equipment, and intangible assels, such
as patents and frademarks are not financial assets.
16
Control of such physical and intangible assets creates an opportunity to generate an intlow of
cash or another financial asset but it does not give rise to a present right to receive cash or
another financial asset.
Assets, such as prepaid expenses, for which the future economic benefit is the receipt of goods
or services, father than the right to receive cash or another financial asset are not also financial
assels.
Leased assets are not also financial assets because control of such assets does not give rise to
a present right to receive cash or another financial asset
Lincker PFRS 9, pronograph 5.7.1. gain and loss on financial asset measured of for vour shall
be presverded in profit or lost, except
When the financial asset is an investment in nontrading equity instrument and the entity has
irrevocably elected to present unrealized gain and loss in other comprehensive income.
c. When the financial asset is a debt investment that is measured at fair value through other
comprehensive income.
In other words, unrealized gain and loss on financial asset held for trading and other financial
asset measured at fair value are reported in the income statement.
Unrealized gain and loss arise from investments that are reported at fair valve
In determining fair value, no deduction is made for transaction costs that may be incured on
disposal of the financial asset.
If the fair vakie is higher than carrying amount, the difference is an unrealized gain.
If the fair value is lower than carrying amount, the difference is an unrealized loss.
Gain and loss that result from actually selling the investments are known as realized gain and
realized loss.
24
Unrealized gains and losses on financial assets at amortized cost are not recognized simply
because such investments are not reported at fair value.
22
PRFS 9. paragraph 5.7.2. provides gain and loss on financial asset measured al amortized cost
and is not part of a hedging relationship shall be recognized in profit or loss when the financial
assets are derecognized, sold, impaired or reclassified, and through the amortization process.

4. The ultimale or any intermediate parent of the investor produces consolidated financial
statements available for public use that comply with Philippine financial Reporting Standards
In these circumstances, the investment is accounted for as financial asset at fair value through
profit or loss or as financial asset at fair value through other comprehensive income or as
nonmarketable investment af cost or investment in unquofed equity instrument.
PAS 28. paragraph 20, provides that if the investment in associate is classified as held for sale,
it is accounted for in accordance with PPRS's which specifically mandates that any noncurrent
asset classified as "hetd for sale" shall be measured of the lower of carrying amount and fair
value less cost to sell/disposal.

Again, it the investor holds, directly or indirectly, through subsidiaries less than 20% of the
voting power of the investee, it is presumed that the invester does not have significant influence,
unless such influence can be clearly demonstrated.
a. Fair Value Method - This is applicable to financial asset measured at fair value through profit
or loss and financial asset measured at fair value through other comprehensive income.
b. Cost Method This is usually applied with respect to investment in unquoted equity instrument
or nonmarketable equity security.
]30
Under the fair value and cost method, the investor does not share in the profit or loss of the
investee because of the legal relationship between the investor and the investee. The investor
and the investee are independent of the other. Accordingly. dividends received by the investor
from the investee are accounted for as dividend income
Potential Voting Rights
The loss of significant influence con accur with or without change in the absolute or relative
ownership interest.
For example, the loss of significant influence could occur when on associate becomes subject to
control of a government, court, administrator or reguligt
The loss of significant influence could also occur as a result of a contractual agreement

satisfies the amortized cost or FVOCI measurement.
In other words, investment in bonds can be designated without revocation as measured at fair
value through profit or loss even if the bonds are held for collection as a business model.
Under the fair value option, all changes in fair value are recognized in profit or loss. Accordingly,
any transaction cost incurred is an outright expense.

For example, an investor held a 10% interest in an investee on January 1. 2024. The investor
acquired additional 10% interest in the same investee on January 1. 2025 enabling the investor
to exercise signilicant influence over the investee
In 2020, the investmerit is accounted for under the cost method or fair value method However,
in 2025, the investment is to be accounted for under the equity method because the investee is
now an associate.
If subsequent acquisitions increase the ownership interest to 20% or more, a change must be
made to the equity method.
The investment in associate achieved in stages is not covered by PAS 28. The principle for
business combinations achieved in stages should be applied.
PFRS 3. paragraph 42, provides that in a business combination achieved in stages. the acquirer
shall remeasure the previously held equity interest at fair value and recognize the resutting gain
or loss in profit or loss.
29
By influence, the investor shall remeasure the previously held interest in an investee using the
equity method. The remeasured equity amount is considered the fair value of the investment in
associate.
By inference, this "fair value approach" should be followed when an associate is acquired in
stages,
The difference between the remeasured equity amount and the carrying amount of the
investment shall be recognized in profit or loss.
Actually, the difference between the remeasured equity amount and the carrying amount of the
investment is the sarne as the difference between the income previously reported and the
income thal would have been reported under the equity method.

revenue is already recognized. The reason is the presumed direct association of the expense
with specific items of income. This is actually the strict matching concept "
190. Cause and Effect Association This process, commonly referred to as the matching of costs
with revenue, involves the simultaneous or combined recognition of revenue and expenses that
result directly and jointly from the same transactions or other events.
191. Systematic and Rational Allocation expensed by simply allocating them over the periods
benefited. Under this principle, some costs are
192. Immediate Recognition Under this principle, the cost incurred is expensed outright because
of uncertainty of future economic benefits or difficulty of reliably associating certain costs with
future revenues.
