ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
The IASB Framework definition of an asset: a resource controlled by the entity as a result of past events and from which future economic benefits are expected to flow to the entity.
A non-current asset is one intended for use on a continuing basis in the company’s activities, ie it is not intended for resale.
1. IAS 16 Property, plant and equipment
Definitions: Property, plant and equipment; Cost; Residual value; Fair value; Carrying amountAccounting treatment:
-recognition: future economic benefits flow to the entity, -measured reliably. initially measured at cost
. subsequent to initial recognition: cost model and revaluation model. revaluation: increase in value is credited to a revaluation surplus/ decrease is an expenses in P &L after cancelling a previous revaluation surplus. depreciation and revaluations: excess over historical cost depreciation can be transferred to realised earnings through reserves. depreciation of an item does not cease when it becomes temporarily idle or is retired from active use and held for disposal. impairment
-Normally, a revaluation surplus is only realised when the asset is sold, but when it is being depreciated, part of that surplus is being realised as the asset is used. This amount can be transferred to retained (ie realised) earnings but not through profit or loss.
Example 1: Binkie Co has an item of land carried in its books at $13,000. Two years ago a slump in land values led the company to reduce the carrying value from $15,000.
This was taken as an expense in profit or loss (the income statement part of the statement of comprehensive income). There has been a surge in land prices in the current year, however, and the land is now worth $20,000.
Example 2: Let us simply swap round the example given above. The original cost was $15,000, revalued upward to $20,000 two years ago. The value has now fallen to $13,000.
Account for the decrease in value.
2. IAS20 Government grants
Grants related to assets may be presented in the statement of financial position either as deferred income or deducted in arriving at the carrying value of the asset.
Repayment of government grants should be accounted for as a revision of an accounting estimate.
4. IAS 36 Impairment of assets
. IAS36 applies to all tangible, intangible and financial assets except inventories, assets arising from construction contracts, deferred tax assets, assets arising under IAS 19 Employee benefits and financial assets within the scope of IAS 32. Impairment: a fall in the value of an asset so that its recoverable amount is now less than its carrying value in the balance sheet.
.Carrying amount: is the net value at which the asset is included in the statement of financial position (ie after deducting accumulated depreciation and accumulated any impairment losses)The recoverable amount of an asset should be measured as the higher value of:
(a) The asset’s fair value less costs to sell; and(b) Its value in use
The value in use of an asset is measured as the present value of estimated future cash flows (inflows minus outflows) generated by the asset, including its estimated net disposal value (if any) at the end of its expected useful life.
Q3: The Antimony Company acquired its head office on 1 January 20W8 at a cost of $5.0 million (excluding land). Antimony’s policy is to depreciate property on a straight-line basis over 50 years with a zero residual value.
On 31 December 20X2 (after 5 years of ownership) Antimony revalued the non-land element of its head office to $8.0 million. Antimony does not transfer annual amounts out of revaluation reserves as assets are used: this is in accordance with the permitted treatment in IAS 16 Property, plant and equipment.
In January 20X8 localised flooding occurred and the recoverable amount of the non-land element of the head office property fell to $2.9 million.
Required
What impairment charge should be recognized in the profit or loss of Antimony arising from the impairment review in January 20X8 according to IAS 36 Impairment of assets?
Q4:The Acetone Company is testing for impairment two subsidiaries which have been identified as separate cash-generating units.
Some years ago Acetone acquired 80% of The Dushanbe Company for $600,000 when the fair value of Dushanbe’s identifiable assets was $400,000. As Dushanbe’s policy is to distribute all profits by way of dividend, the fair value of its identifiable net assets remained at $400,000 on 31 December 20X7. The impairment review indicated Dushanbe’s recoverable amount at 31 December 20X7 to be $520,000.
Some years ago Acetone acquired 85% of The Maclulich Company for $800,000 when the fair value of Maclulich’s identifiable net assets was $700,000. Goodwill of $205,000 ($800,000-($700,000×85%)) was recognized. As Maclulich’s policy is to distribute all profits by way of dividend, the fair value of its identifiable net assets remained at $700,000 on 31 December 20X7. The impairment review indicated Maclulich’s recoverable amount at 31 December 20X7 to be $660,000.
It is Acetone group policy to value the non-controlling interest using the proportion of net assets method.
Required
Determine the following amounts in respect of Acetone’s consolidated financial statements at 31 December 20X7 according to IAS 36 Impairment of Assets.
(a) The carrying amount of Dushanbe’s assets to be compared with its recoverable amount for impairment testing purposed(b) The carrying amount of goodwill in respect of Dushanbe after the recognition of any impairment loss(c) The carrying amount of the non-controlling interest in Maclulich after recognition of any impairment loss
