Financial assets IFRS 9 Flashcards
Quick refresher what is present value and future value formula?
What is a perpetuity and what is the formula for present value and pv with growth?
an infinite stream of fixed payments received at the end of each period.
What is an annuity?
a stream of fixed payments received at the end of each period.
What is the Present value of an annuity?
This is the formula when you have been given months but if not then you remove n.
What is the present value of an annuity with growth? ( constant growth of cash flow over time)
What is the definition of a Financial instrument according to IFRS 9 which replaces IAS 39 ( as it was too difficult)
Is a contract that give rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument to another entity ( e.g. derivatives instruments, cash instruments, bonds)
We are going to be only looking at accounting for debentures ( bonds ) What is a bond and how is it different to a loan?
A bond is a debt security in which the issuer is obliged to repay the holders the principal and interest ( the coupon) at maturity.
A bond can be traded on open market whereas a loan cannot.
What is the relationship between bond prices and interest rates?
Inverse relationship ( As interest rates increase bond prices fall and when interest rate falls bond prices increase)
So bond price can be equal to value of the bond, can be more or less explain these situations. ( SO price and FV can be different)
If discount rate = coupon rate then the price of the bond = princpal.
If discount rate > coupon rate the the bonds will sell at a discount ( below par)
If discount rate < coupon rate then the bonds will set at a premium( above par)
If discount rate > coupon rate the the bonds will sell at a discount ( below par)
If discount rate < coupon rate then the bonds will set at a premium( above par)
Why is this the case?
Lets say you buy for $10000 bond with coupon on 10%, and interest rates in the market rise to 15%, all new bonds in the market will earn 15% coupon > 10%, hence the 10% on your bond is less attractive, so the only way you sell your bond is if you lower price to adjust for difference in the interest rate.
If interest rate drops to 5%, all new bonds in the market will earn investors less profit, making the 10% interest on your bond more attractive, so your price will adjust up to difference in interest rate as demand increases for your bond.
What is the initial measurement for debentures?
They are initially measured at Fair value ( any proceeds we received) - transaction costs directly attributable to their issue ( investment bank fee)
what is the subsequent measurement of this financial liability? ( or initial)
Measured using amoritsed cost method.
The amortised method states the Carrying amount of bond ( what we put on B/S) = Pv of all future payments at the effective interest rate.
What is the effective interest rate?
Is it the same as coupon rate?
It is like IRR such that what you receive = Pv calculation ( present value of annuity/ present value if zero coupon) ( its the r that solves this equation.
It is not the same as the coupon rate.
Now what is the income statement effect?
it is the effective rate times our carrying amount.
