IAS 16: Property Plant and Equipment
Example: Revaluation model
Acorn Co bought land for $500,000 on 1 March 20X1, accounting
for it using the revaluation model.
The land had a fair value of $600,000 at 31 December 20X1,
however this had dropped to $450,000 at 31 December 20X2.
At 31 December 20X1 the revaluation increase is accounted for by:
DR Land $100,000
CR OCI (revaluation surplus) $100,000
At 31 December 20X2 the revaluation decrease is accounted for by:
DR OCI (revaluation surplus) $100,000
DR Profit or loss $50,000
CR Land $150,000

IAS 38: Intangible assets
Exercise
At 1 January 20X5, Moor Labs Co has capitalised development costs with
an original cost of $10million and carrying amount of $5million.
The company started a new R&D project on 1 January 20X5, incurring
$1.6million costs during the research phase, which lasted until 31 August
20X5. From that date, average development costs incurred on the
project were $750.000 per month.
On 1 November 20X5, the management of Moor Labs Co became
confident that the project would be a commercial success and make
good profits. The project is still in development at 31 December 20X5.
Capitalised development expenditure is amortised at 25% per annum
using the straight line method.
What amount is recognised as an expense in terms of R&D in the year
ended 31 December 20X5?

Includes operating leases
A vacant building that is held to be leased out

investment property
IAS 40: Investment property
Definition
Property intended to be sold in normal
course of the business
Owner-occupied property
Property held for future owner-occupation
Excludes
Property occupied by employees
Owner-occupied property awaiting disposal
Property leased to another entity under a
finance lease
IAS 40: Investment property
Example
Spruce Co acquires a 5 storey property by way of a finance lease.
Each storey is a self-contained office space. Spruce Co had the
option of acquiring any number of storeys of the building,
however decided to acquire all 5, using one for its sales and
marketing function, and renting the remaining 4 to other
companies under operating leases.
IAS 40: Investment property
Example
Spruce Co has acquired the property by way of a finance lease.
IAS 40 is clear that the definition of investment property includes
property that is owned and property held under a finance lease.
Spruce Co occupies 1/5 of the property and rent out 4/5 of the
property. In this case IAS 40 requires splitaccounting if each
portion could be sold or leased out separately under a finance
lease. It is clear that this is the case because Spruce Co had the
option of acquiring any number of story's of the building.
Therefore:
1/5 of the property is accounted for as owner-occupied property
in accordance with IAS 16
4/5 of the property is accounted for as investment property in
accordance with IAS 40.

IAS 36: Impairment of assets
Testing for impairment
Accounting for impairment
IMPAIRMENT = Carrying amount > Recoverable amount
The loss is usually recognised immediately in profit or loss
If there is a revaluation surplus related to the impaired
asset, the loss is first recognised in OCI and any excess
recognised in profit or loss
IAS 36: Impairment of assets
Testing for impairment
Example
An item of plant has a carrying amount (based on historical
cost) of $124,000 and a value in use of $117,000. The price
the asset could achieve at auction is expected to be $127,000
and fees of 10% would be incurred on a sale.
Recoverable amount = $117,000, being the higher of value in
use and fair value less costs to sell
($127,000 x 90% = $114,300).
The asset is impaired by $7,000 and the loss is recognised by:
DEBIT Profit or loss $7,000
CREDIT Plant property and equipment $7,000
IAS 36: Impairment of assets

To the goodwill allocated to the CGUs
To all other assets in the CGUs, on a pro rata basis
IAS 36: Impairment of assets
Example: Impairment of assets
ABC is currently undertaking impairment review. One of its
monitored CGU, X, contains an allocated goodwill of $5m in
accordance with IAS 36 for the purpose of impairment testing. The
required annual impairment test was conducted on 31/12/20X6.
The following is relevant to the individual assets of CGU X under
reviews:
1. Assuming that CGU, X’s recoverable amount is assessed at $81m
2. Assuming that CGU, X’s recoverable amount is assessed at $83m
and the fair value less cost to sell asset A is estimated at $22m

IAS 23: Borrowing costs
Calculation of borrowing costs
Capitalised borrowing costs =
Specific borrowing costs actually inccured –
borrowings investment income from the
temporary investment of the fund
Capitalised borrowing costs are
General calculated by applying the weighted
borrowings average cost of borrowing to the
expenditure on the asset
IAS 23: Borrowing costs
Example
Hazlenut Co has the following borrowings outstanding
throughout the year ended 31 December 20X4:
$1million 5% bank loan
$3 million 7% loan notes
On 1 August 20X4 it drew down $1,500,000 borrowings for the
purpose of constructing a new warehouse. Architects began
designing the building on this date and construction began on 1
September 20X4.
The property was completed on 30 November 20X4
The weighted average cost of capital is calculated as:
($1m/$4m x 5%) + ($3m/$4m x 7%) = 6.5%
Borrowing costs are capitalised from 1 September 20X4 to 30
November 20X4. Therefore the amount to be capitalised is:
6.5% x $1,500,000 x 3/12 months = $24,375

Example: Leases with non-refundable deposit
1/01/20X6 Fellini Co hired a machine under a five year lease.
A non-refundable deposit of $700,000 was payable on 1/01/20X6.
The present value of the future lease payment was $2,426,000.
The remaining 4 instalments of $700,000 are payable annually in
advance with the first payment made on 1/01/20X6. The interest
rate implicit in the lease is 6%.

IFRS 16: Leases
Example: Lessees accounting
Example:
Riyad enters into an agreement to lease an asset. The terms
of the lease are as follows.
1. Primary period is for four years from 1 January 20X2 with a
rental of $2,000 pa payable on 31 December each year.
2. The present value of the lease payments is $5,710
3. The interest rate implicit in the lease is 15%.
What figures will be shown in the financial statements for the
year ended 31 December 20X2?
IFRS 16: Leases
Example: Lessees accounting
ANSWER:
Non-current right-of-use asset = $5,710.
Annual depreciation = 1/4 × $5,710 = $1,428.
Initial liability = $5,710.
The total finance charge for the lease is calculated as the
difference between the total payments of $8,000 and the initial
value of $5,710 = $2,290.

Lessor accounting
Example
Roost Co leases plant and machinery to manufacturing
companies. It has a year-end of 30 September.
On 1 June 20X8 it leased a machine to a customer for a 6 year
period.
The agreed lease payments were $400 per calendar month
payable in arrears.
In addition, the customer was required to pay an initial non-
refundable amount of $1,200.
IFRS 16: Leases
Lessor accounting
Example
The total lease payments over the 6-year term amount to:
$30,000 ($1,200 + (6 x 12 x $400))
The annual lease income recognised in profit or loss by Roost:
$5,000 ($30,000/6years)
The income recognised in the year ended 30 September 20X8
is: $1,667 (4/12m x $5,000)

IFRS 16: Leases
Sale and leaseback transactions
Example
Cape Co sells a property to Banco Co on 1 June 20X8 for
$5million. The property has a carrying amount of $4.3million on
that date. Cape Co then leases the property back over a 20 year
term at $550,000 per annum. The transfer does not qualify as a
sale.
IFRS 16: Leases
Sale and leaseback transactions
Example
Cape Co continues recognise the property at its carrying
amount of $4.3million and depreciates it.
It recognises the receipt of $5million as a financial liability
Lease payments are treated as loan repayments including
capital and interest elements
Banco Co does not recognise the property
It recognises a financial asset at $5million and subsequently
recognises lease payments as receipt of capital and interest
IFRS 5: Non-current assets held for sale

Definition: Non-current assets held for sale
The asset must be available for immediate
sale in its present condition
Its sale must be highly probable
(ie significantly more likely than not)
Management must be committed to a plan to sell

is reasonable in relation to its current fair value
The sale should be expected to take place within
one year from the date of classification
It is unlikely that significant changes to the plan will
be made or that the plan will be withdrawn
IFRS 5: Non-current assets held for sale
and discontinued operation
Question: Non-current assets held for sale

IFRS 5: Non-current assets held for sale
and discontinued operation
Example: Non-current assets held for sale
Archway Co owns and occupies a property measured using the
IAS 16 Revaluation model.
Its carrying amount and fair value at 1 April 20X6 is $890,000.
At 31 March 20X7 its carrying amount after depreciation is
$845,500 and its fair value is $910,000.
Costs to sell are 10% of eventual selling price.
The property becomes classified as held for sale on 31 March
20X7.
IFRS 5: Non-current assets held for sale
and discontinued operation
Example
On transfer to held for sale the property is measured at the
lower of carrying amount ($910,000) and fair value less cost
to sell ($910,000 x 90% = $819,000)
An impairment loss of $91,000 ($910,000 - $819,000) is
therefore recognised in profit or loss transfer
At 31 March 20X7, immediately prior to transfer to held for
sale the property is revalued to $910,000 in line with IAS 16
A revaluation surplus of $64,500 ($910,000 - $845,500) is
recognised in other comprehensive income
IFRS 5: Non-current assets held for sale
and discontinued operation
Definition: Disposal groups
A disposal group
A group of assets, possibly with some associated liabilities,
which an entity intends to dispose of in a single transaction
Classified as HFS if it meets the same criteria as those for an
asset HFS
Acquired exclusively with a view to subsequent disposal is
classified as HFS if the sale is expected to take place within 12
months of acquisition and the other conditions are met within
3 months of the acquisition
IFRS 5: Non-current assets held for sale
and discontinued operation
Definition: Discontinued operations
A discontinued operation is a component of an entity that
either has been disposed of or is classified as HFS and:
Represents a separate major line of business or
geographical area of operations
Is part of a single co-ordinated plan to dispose of a
separate major line of business or geographical area of
operations
Is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale
IFRS 5: Non-current assets held for sale
and discontinued operation
Disclosure: Discontinued operations
The main requirement is that in the statement of profit
or loss and other comprehensive income the result for
the discontinued operation, combined with any gain or
loss on disposal, or on remeasurement of assets HFS,
should be disclosed separately from the results of
continuing operations.
