Re: Accrued Interest - Loan Write Off

Depends on the wording in the loan agreement as to the contractual period over which interest accrues. But if it's contractually due, then the bad debt is the entire amount including accrued interest.

Are you writing off, or raising a 100% credit loss provision?

Re: IFRS16 lease -Finance cost grouping

If you isolate R&D costs as a separate P&L line perhaps you're better to put the RoU asset depreciation there?

Re: IAS 7 - cashflow

statement of changes in equity.

are you referring to the share based payment charge within P&L? (ie the debit rather than the credit)? if so, add it back as a non-cash movement.

Re: Companies acts consolidation exemption and IFRS 10 exemptions

as far as I'm aware CA06 only talks about exemption from consolidation in terms of group size, ie you are exempt if you are a small group, as defined. I'd be surprised if there is much of a cross section between 'small' groups and those who apply IFRS and are investment companies. I guess if there's...

Re: Reversal of liability

It's 3 years later so if A had considered the $1m was payable, it is assessed that the fair value of that contingent consideration was $1m at the time, then reverse through P&L.

Or was it an error to record the $1m as a liability in the first place based on information at the time?

Intangible assets acquired with variable consideration is an open matter so you can determine a policy. But is it an intangible asset?

Seems like the per page fee is a variable lease payment hence not in the lease liability (P&L when incurred)

Re: IAS 40 Cost model with annual impairment

if you hold at cost you need to disclose the fair value anyway, so it'll be clear if that is lower than carrying value.

also, the scope of IAS 36 includes investment property held at cost as only FV model Investment property is scoped out

Re: IFRS 16 Variable EIR

I don't see how an implicit interest rate can be variable in that sense, since it is implicit through replicating the present value of lease payments compared to what you would pay to acquire the asset outright. are the lease payments themselves variable?

Re: Unused tax loss treatment

In a basic case, you just have zero tax liability if you're allowed to use those previous losses to offset. And then given you have a profit, maybe you have a deferred tax asset if profits are probable forward, to the extent unused losses remain. But sounds like your question is a tax one rather tha...

Re: Direct equity investment - transaction price & fair value

Yes I'd think generally AIM would be L1 but I can see counterarguments depending on which company. Some people might hold at using other approaches.
