Re: Buying shares at fair value if certain conditions are met

Or eventually, Dr financial asset (for it will receive the shares in company C) Dr liability Eventually, the financial asset is fair valued, same as the financial liability, therefore, the effect of the financial assets cancel the liability so no P&L changes until the shares actually bought out?

Re: Cross-currency swaps

You need to record the swap instrument as a derivative instrument, in accordance with IFRS 9. All the fluctuation in fair value is recognised in OCI.

Re: Perpetual bonds

Similar to preference shares with principal at the discretion of the issuer and dividends are mandatory, They are not equity for the same reason.

Re: Perpetual bonds

my understand is that the principal is perpetual, but the interest is mandatory, so I don't agree with the assessment that it's an equity instrument, because for me it is a compound instrument, with equity being the residual value. because the principal is at the issuer's discretion but the interest...

Re: Transaction accounting under IFRS - Three body problem

If my description was unclear, I said, for D to keep its mino interests of 49% in B, but only sell C to A. I reckon that it's a legal question, but view is D cannot do so directly. It will need B to sell it's shares to A first.

Re: Transaction accounting under IFRS - Three body problem

I realized that this can only work by A buying the 70% of C from B. And then, D can get the benefit of a increased net assets in B. B can either distribute dividends to D or D can sell its shares in B. But it's not possible for D to only sell the 35% in C.

Re: Transaction accounting under IFRS

Re: Net Assets at Acquisition

if you have identified there are some intangibles, this will affect the goodwill.
similarly, if there are intangibles, NCI might have another fair value which may counterbalance the goodwill.

the above is a V0.

Re: Net Assets at Acquisition

Whether you include it or not, it should not change your assessment of the goodwill. A PPA exercise should be performed.

Sometimes, the entity needs cash to grow and the existing shareholding can't put more cash into it, so it looks for external investors.

In this situation, you wouldn't get a goodwill, but depending on the percentage you acquire, you might end up with a bargain purchase.

Re: Alignment of joint venture's accounting policies in equity accounting

I think it all depends on what are you able to do as an investor, because sometimes, you just don't have the info, and it's too hard to do the adjustments (including for the prior years). I think you would need to agree with the auditors depending on the materiality of the investment. For example, y...
