IFRS 13: Fair value measurement
Definition
Fair value
The price that would be
received to sell an asset or
paid to transfer a liability
in an orderly transaction between market
participants at the measurement date
IFRS 13: Fair value measurement
Measurement
In order to measure fair value the entity must
determine:
1. Asset or liability
2. Valuation premise that is appropriate for the
measurement (non-financial asset)
3. Principal market or most advantageous
market
4. Valuation technique
IFRS 13: Fair value measurement
1. Asset or liability
the characteristics of the asset or liability should be
considered
Example:
Greenfield Co owns land that is subject to a legal right for an
electricity company to run power lines across it. The land
could be sold for $3million without these lines and
$2.7million with them.
The legal right would be transferred to a purchaser of the
land and therefore it must be taken into account when
determining fair value.
Fair value is $2.7million.
IFRS 13: Fair value measurement
2. Highest and best use
The fair value of a non-financial asset
Highest and best use: physically possible, legally
permissible, financially feasible
Example:
Redletter Co owns land that is currently used for industrial
purposes. It could be sold for $1.5million on this basis.
Nearby sites have been developed as residential sites and
there is no legal restriction to prohibit Redletter Co from
selling the land for this purpose. Such a sale would achieve a
price of $1.8million.
The fair value is $1.8 million, based on the highest and best
use.
IFRS 13: Fair value measurement
3. Principal or most advantageous market
Most advantageous
Principle market
market
market with the most market maximises the
volume of activity for amount that would be
the asset or liability received to sell an asset
Fair value is determined
Based on the principal market;
No principal market, based on the most advantageous
market
IFRS 13: Fair value measurement
3. Principal or most advantageous market
Example
China France
Price $40 $38
Transaction cost $1/item $3/item
Transport $8/item $5/item
IF France - the principal market: fair value of Bluebell Co's
product would be $33 ($38 less $5 transport costs)
Advantageous market
China: net proceeds per item = $31 ($40 - $1 - $8)
France: net proceeds per item = $30 ($38 - $3 - $5)
China – most advantageous market
Fair value = $32 ($40 - $8)
IFRS 13: Fair value measurement
4. Valuation technique
Three valuation approaches
Market Valuations based on recent sales
approaches prices
Valuations based on replacement
Cost approaches
cost
Income valuations based on financial
approaches forecasts
IFRS 13: Fair value measurement
4. Valuation technique
Inputs used to measure fair value
Quoted prices for identical assets in
Level 1
active markets
Observable inputs other than those
Level 2
classified as level 1
Level 3 Unobservable inputs
IFRS 13: Fair value measurement
4. Valuation technique
Example
Baklava has an investment property that is measured at fair
value. This property is rented out on short-term leases.
The directors wish to fair value the property by estimating
the present value of the net cash flows that the property will
generate for Baklava. They argue that this best reflects the
way in which the building will generate economic benefits
for Baklava. The building is unique, although there have
been many sales of similar buildings in the local area.
Discuss whether the valuation technique suggested by the
directors complies with International Financial Reporting
Standards.
IFRS 13: Fair value measurement
4. Valuation technique
Example
Valuation technique fair value the property by
suggested by the estimating the present value of
directors the net cash flows – LEVEL 3
LEVEL 2 – there are observable
More reliable inputs (there have been many
technique sales of similar building in the
area)
IFRS 13: Fair value measurement
Disclosure
Assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value

those measurements
Measurements using significant unobservable inputs

Example
On 1 Jan 20X0, an entity issues convertible loan notes for $500,000.
Interest is payable annually in arrears at 6%. The market rate of
interest for similar loan notes with no conversion rights attached is
7%. The loan notes are redeemable on 31 December 20X3.
The liability component is initially measured at:
Date Cash Flow Discount factor Present value
31.12.X0 (30,000) 1/1.07 $28,037

Impairment of financial assets: Measurement
At initial recognition, 12 month expected credit losses are
recognised
Beyond this, a 3 stage approach is taken:
If credit risk has not increased significantly since
Stage 1 initial recognition, recognise 12 month expected
credit losses
If credit risk has increased significantly since
Stage 2 initial recognition, recognise lifetime expected
credit losses, calculate interest on gross asset
Exist evidence of impairment at the reporting
Stage 3 date, recognise lifetime expected credit losses,
calculate interest on asset net of impairment
IFRS 9: Recognition and measurement
Example
Example
January 20X4, Barkers Co purchased a debt investment,
measuring it at par of $500,000. There is a 3% probability that
the borrower will default, resulting in a 100% loss.
31 December 20X4 it is expected that the borrower will
breach loan covenants and there is a 30% probability of them
defaulting over the remainder of the term.
IFRS 9: Recognition and measurement
Example
At 1 January 20X4 an impairment allowance of
3% x $500,000 = $15,000 is recognised (12 month credit
losses).
31 December 20X4, there is a significant increase in the risk of
default -> the impairment allowance is based on lifetime
credit losses. It is increased to 30% x $500,000 = $150,000.
Interest revenue would have been calculated based on:
$500,000 - $150,000 = $350,000
IAS 37: Provisions and Contingencies
Definitions: Provisions
Provision A liability of uncertain timing or amount
Present obligation as a result of past events
Liability
Settlement is expected to result in an outflow of
resources
Probable more likely than not to occur
Legal an obligation that the entity must follow because of
obligation law enforcement
obligation that derives from an entity's actions where
Constructive the entity has created a valid expectation on the part
obligation of those other parties that it has accept certain
responsibilities and will discharge those responsibilities
a contract in which the unavoidable costs of meeting
Onerous
the obligations under the contract exceed the
contract economic benefits expected to be received under it
IAS 37: Provisions and Contingencies
Recognition and measurement: Provisions

recognised if
A reliable estimate can be made on
the obligation
IAS 37: Provisions and Contingencies
Recognition and measurement: Provisions
The best estimate of a provision will be:
the most likely amount payable for a single obligation
an expected value for a large population of items
IAS 37: Provisions and Contingencies
Example 1: Provisions
Store Co operates clothes shops in a country where laws
require that goods can be returned by customers for a refund
within 30 days of purchase. Store Co's advertising slogan is
'Satisfaction guaranteed, but 90 days to return if not’.
Shoud any provisions is made in this case?
IAS 37: Provisions and Contingencies
Example 1: Provisions
Store Co has a liability of uncertain timing and amount: at any
given date it may have refund goods sold in the previous 90 days.
A legal obligation exists to refund goods sold in the previous 30
days and a constructive obligation exists in respect of the other
60 days.
Related past events are sales to customers. Assuming that
customer refunds are probable and a reliable estimate can be
made of the amount (based on past experience).
A provision should be made
IAS 37: Provisions and Contingencies
Example 2: Provisions
A customer has brought a lawsuit against Bone Co and is
claiming $800,000 in damages. Bone Co’s legal advisors have
assessed the probability of Bone Co losing and having to pay
the damages at 80%.
There is single obligation and provision is measured at the
single most likely outcome $800,000
The provision is not measured at 80% x $800,000 = $640,000
because there is not a large population of items
IAS 37: Provisions and Contingencies
Example 3: Provisions
Parker Co sells goods with a warranty under which customers
are covered for the cost of repairs of any manufacturing
defect that becomes apparent within the first six months of
purchase. The company's past experience and future
expectations indicate the following pattern of likely repairs.

Oil Co constructed an oil platform in 20X2 at a cost of $12
million. The company is also legally required to decommission
the platform at the end of its useful life at a cost with present
value of $2million. The company is also legally required to
restore the seabed at this time. This is gradually eroded as oil
extracted. Restoration costs are estimated at $10 per barrel
extracted. At 31 December 20X2, 50,000 barrels had been
extracted.
A provision is recognised at the time of construction for
$2 million – Total cost of the oil platform is $14 million
Additional provision is made as barrels of oil are extracted.
At 31 Dec 20X2, it amounts to $10 x 50,000 = $500,000

Restructuring provisions
'A restructuring is a programme that is planned and controlled
by management, and materially changes either:

IAS 37: Provisions and Contingencies
Example: Restructuring provisions
On 14 June 20X5 a decision was made by the board of an
entity to close down a division. The decision was not
communicated at that time to any of those affected and no
other steps were taken to implement the decision by the year
end of 30 June 20X5. The division was closed in September
20X5.
Should a provision be made at 30 June 20X5 for the cost of
closing down the division?
No constructive obligation exists
This is a board decision, which can be reversed
No provision can be made

by actuaries was $2.25million
Company contributions in the year were $2million and the
current service cost was $1.3million

Deferred tax
Deferred tax is an accounting adjustment to take
account of the future tax impact of an asset or
liability currently recognised in the statement of
financial position
IAS 12: Income taxes
Definition
Deferred tax
Two approaches
Income approach Balance sheet approach
Take difference between Take difference between
accounting profit and the tax base and carrying
taxable profit amount
IAS 12: Income taxes
Calculation
Determine the tax base of the asset or liability
The difference between this amount and the carrying
amount is a temporary difference
The temporary difference is either
Taxable Deductable
Apply tax rate to give Apply tax rate to give
deffered tax liability defferred tax asset
IAS 12: Income taxes
Tax base
Tax base
the amount that is attributed to an asset or liability
for tax purposes
In the case of asset In the case of liability
the amount that will usually the carrying
be deductible for tax amount less any
purposes in the future amount that will be
deductible for tax
purpose in the future
IAS 12: Income taxes
Calculation
Taxable temporary arise where the carrying amount of
differences an item exceeds its tax base
Deductible
arise where the carrying amount of
temporary
an item is less than its tax base
differences
is that which is expected to apply
The applicable tax
when the carrying amount of the
rate
item is recovered
IAS 12: Income taxes
Example
Luella Co buys an item of plant on 1 January 20X7 at a cost of
$400,000. The plant has a useful life of 10 years and benefits
form a 20% writing down allowance (on a reducing balance
basis) for tax purposes. Luella has a year end of 31 December
and pays tax at a rate of 30%.
There is no deferred tax impact on acquisition of the asset
because carrying amount is equal to tax base at $400,000.
IAS 12: Income taxes
Example
At 31 December 20X7:
The carrying amount of the asset is
9/10 x $400,000 = $360,000
The tax base of the asset is 80% x $400,000 = $320,000
There is therefore a temporary difference of $40,000
This is a taxable temporary difference because carrying
amount exceeds tax base
It results in a deferred tax liability of
30% x $40,000 = $12,000
IAS 12: Income taxes
Accounting for deferred taxes
DEBIT Tax charge in profit or loss $12,000
CREDIT Deferred tax liability $12,000
The deferred tax impact of a revaluation is recognised
in OCI
The deferred tax impact of dividends is recognised in
profit or loss
IAS 12: Income taxes
Example: Accounting for deferred taxes
Zebra Co owns a property which has a carrying amount at
the beginning of 20X9 of $1,500,000. At the year end it has
revalued the property as $1,800,000. The tax rate is 30%.
How will this be shown in financial statements?
IAS 12: Income taxes
Example: Accounting for deferred taxes
Statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income (extract)
$000
Profit for the year X
Other comprehensive income:
Gains on property revaluation 300

Debit Credit
$’000 $’000
Property, plant and equipment 300 -
Deferred tax 90
Revaluation surplus 210
The deferred tax has been deducted from revaluation surplus rather than being
charged to profit or loss
IFRS 2: Share-Based Payment
Definition
Share-based payment occurs when an entity buys
goods or services from other parties and:
settles the amounts payable by issuing shares or
share options or
incurs liabilities for cash payments based on its
share price
IFRS 2: Share-Based Payment
Definition
Equity-settled the entity acquires goods or
share-based services in exchange for equity
payments instruments of the entity
the entity acquires goods or
Cash-settled
services in exchange for amounts
share-based
of cash measured by reference to
payments
the entity’s share price

DEBIT Expense/Asset
CREDIT Equity
The entry to equity is normally reported in other components
of equity
Share capital is not affected until the share-based payment
has 'vested'.

IFRS 2: Share-Based Payment
Example
A company grants three directors 200 share options on
[Link].20X6, and these vest (i.e. the director becomes entitled to
them) after two years, providing that the director still works for
the company. This is expected to be the case. Each option has a
fair value of $3 at the grant date.
The total expense to be recognised is $1,800
(3 directors x 200 options x $3). This is spread over the two year
vesting period giving an expense of $900 in each year.
At the end of year 1 the balance in equity is $900; at the end of
year two it is $1,800. Assuming that the options are exercised,
the equity balance is transferred to the share capital account.
IFRS 2: Share-Based Payment
Equity-settled share-based payments
The measurement of equity-settled share-based payments
must take into account the number of instruments expected to
vest (become an entitlement).
IFRS 2: Share-Based Payment
Cash-settled share-based payments
DEBIT Expense/asset
CREDIT Liability
The fair value of the liability is re-measured at each reporting
date as the amount of cash expected to be paid
IFRS 2: Share-Based Payment
Example
On 1 January 20X4 a company grants a director share
appreciation rights whereby she is entitled to cash equivalent
to 1,000 shares on 31 December 20X5, assuming she remains
in employment. The share price is $3.40 on 31 December 20X4
and $4.05 on 31 December 20X5.
Recognition:
At 31 December 20X4 a liability and expense are
recognised of $1,700 (1,000 x $3.40 x 1/2 years).
At 31 December 20X5 the total liability is $4,050
(1,000 x $4.05).
Therefore the year 2 expense is $2,350 ($4,050 - $1,700).
IFRS 2: Share-Based Payment
Share-based payments with a choice of settlement
Where the counterparty - choice of settlement, the entity is
deemed to have granted a compound instrument and a
separate equity and liability component are recognised
Where the entity - choice of settlement, the whole transaction
is treated as either equity-settled or cashsettled depending on
whether the entity has an obligation to settle in cash

IAS 41: Agriculture
Recognition
An entity should recognise a biological asset or
agricultural produce only when the entity

measurement
IAS 41: Agriculture
Initial Measurement
estimated costs to

− sell
Gains and losses may arise in profit or loss when a
biological asset is first recognised
IAS 41: Agriculture
Subsequent Measurement
At each reporting date, biological assets are revalued to
fair value less costs to sell
Gains and losses arising from changes in fair value are
recognised in profit or loss for the period in which they
arise
Biological assets are presented separately on the face of
the statement of financial position within non-current
assets
