what does classifying something as a financial liability mean from the stakeholder perspective
increased gearing
reduced profit due to finance cost
what does classifying something as equity mean from the stakeholder perspective
decrease gearing
no effect on profit
common example of an instrument being a liability and equity

is a debt instrument held to collect cash flows debt or shares
debt
is a debt instrument held to collect cash flows AND SELL debt or shares
debt
are investments in equity instruments NOT held for trading debt or shares
shares
are any other financial assets that are not:
held for cash flows
held for cash flows and sale
investments in equity not held for trading,
debt or shares?
shares
initial measurement and subsequent measurement of held to collect cash flows
FV + Transaction costs
then
amortised cost
initial measurement and subsequent measurement of held to collect cash flows and to sell
FV + Transaction costs
then
FV to OCI then to P/L when derecognised
initial measurement and subsequent measurement of investments in equity not held for trading
FV + Transaction costs
FV to OCI and dividend income in P/L
initial measurement and subsequent measurement of any other financial assets that are not :
held for cash flows
held for cash flows and sale
investments in equity not held for trading,
FV only, transaction costs are expensed
FV to P/l
how do you initially measure and subsequently measure most financial liabilities
FV - transaction costs
then at amortised cost
how do you measure ( initially and subsequently ) a liability that is held for trading
FV - transaction costs expensed
FV through P/L
when can assets and liabilities be offset
when an entity has a right to offset
they intend to settle on a net basis or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously
what is a loss allowance
the allowance for expected credit losses on financial assets
what is stage 1 of loss allowances
initial recognition of the asset will put a 12 month expected credit loss in - unwind this and difference will go to Finance costs
when do you go to stage 2 of loss allowances
if there is an increase in risk
what does stage 2 mean
increase the allowance and therefore finance costs for lifetime losses
when do you go stage 3 loss allowance
there is objective evidence of impairment
what does stage 3 mean
increase the allowance to lifetime losses and only calculate interest on net amount ( asset - allowance )

how to recognise an equity settled SBP
Dr exp
Cr equity
how to recognise a cash settled SBP
Dr Expense
Cr Liability
whats a vesting condition
a condition that must be met before the SBP can be made
if there is no vesting period how would we account for the SBP
full expense at grant date
how to measure an equity settled SBP
use FV at grant date and do not update
how to measure a cash settled SBP
Update FV at each YE with changes going to P/L
how to calculate share based payment equity or liability value at YE
No of employees x no of instruments per employee x FV per instrument x proportion of vesting period elapsed at YE
if the entity has the choice of SBP do you need to account differently?
no
if the counter party has the choice of SBP do you need to account differently?
yes - measure debt as you would a cash settled scheme, then equity as a balancing figure
