Q

A company had $100,000 in current liabilities at the end of the current year. The company refinanced this liability on a noncurrent basis subsequent to the end of the year but before the financial statements were issued. How should this liability be presented, according to IFRS and U.S. GAAP, in the company’s year-end financial statements?

A

Under U.S. GAAP, a current liability is classified as noncurrent if the entity (1) intends to refinance on a noncurrent basis and (2) demonstrates an ability to complete such refinancing. The ability to refinance may be demonstrated by entering into an agreement to refinance or to reschedule payments on a long-term basis. Such an agreement may be completed after the reporting date but before the financial statements are issued. Under IFRS, a current liability may be classified as noncurrent only if the agreement to refinance or reschedule payments on a noncurrent basis is completed before the reporting date.

Q

On December 31, Year 1, Brook Co. decided to end operations and dispose of its assets within 3 months. At December 31, Year 1, the net realizable value of the equipment was below historical cost. What is the appropriate measurement basis for equipment included in Brook’s December 31, Year 1, balance sheet?

A

Financial accounting principles assume that a business entity is a going concern without evidence to the contrary. This concept justifies the use of depreciation and amortization schedules and the recording of assets and liabilities using attributes other than liquidation value. However, the going concern assumption no longer applies when the entity’s existence will be terminated in 3 months, and historical cost no longer is appropriate as a measurement attribute. Accordingly, assets should be restated in accordance with the liquidation basis of accounting (at the amount of expected cash proceeds).
