Souscription of preference shares after closing
Hi, In a case where the investor and the issuer have agreed (materialised by signature of an agreement) that the investor would subscribe for 500 prefs for an amount of 1 millions LC, in Feb 2024. The agreement was signed in Dec 2023. In this case, is there a derivative instrument from the perspecti...

Re: Convertible bond at the option of the issuer
Hi Kevin, thanks for sharing! It seems that when the issuer has solely the option to convert, in this case, depending on management's own judgement, it can vary from liability to equity. I guess 99/100, people would choose the equity classification. In the case you shared, if there is no cash redemp...

Convertible bond at the option of the issuer
In case of a fixed rate convertible bond that provide the issuer the option, at its own discretion, to convert the principal and any accrued interest at the same rate, then the instrument is classified as equity in its entirety. This is because the issuer can avoid paying cash; (IAS 32.11.a.i) and a...

If converted, it would be conv...

Re: Equity method exemptions
I think if your company elects to apply the investment accounting under IFRS 10, it means you can produce separate financial statements and account for the investments at fair value under IFRS 9.
I don't know whether in this context, applying IFRS 9 is the only option.

Re: PP&E depreciation and impairment
I think it depends on the materiality, if the company has noticed that the initial depreciation was overly pessimistic, then, they can readjust the depreciation rate, thus, extending the useful life, correct?

Thanks Ketan for this lengthy explanation! By prospective, I meant, if an asset is, let's say, depreciated from 100 LC down to 50 LC. and the fair value of the asset is now 60 LC. Then, from now, onwards, the company would stop depreciating the asset until the point in time when the fair value of th...

Hi, Just wanted to confirm, if an asset accounted at cost in accordance with IAS 16, for 100 LC. Depreciated for 20LC, and impaired for 30LC, YTD. And a valuation recently performed indicated that the fair value of the asset is 100LC. In that case, the impairment of 30LC could be reversed, and new d...

Re: IAS32- classification
That's a fair point, but from someone who did prepare the conso accounts (and also audited a few), it's a nighmare to split account the intercompany loans, the software can't eliminate it properly so you have to plugg manual entries. At the year end, it's not something you want to spend your nights ...

auditors are focused on auditing the conso, so if the difference is under the threshold on individual entity level, they wouldn't bother.

Re: IAS32- classification
Agree, it's a compound instrument, provided there is something left in equity. However, in practice, I would guess that most of the companies would take the shortcut to say it's full liability.

Re: IAS32- classification
Let me put it differently, if a prefs provides mandatory redemption for the principal amount but the dividends are at the issuer's discretion. That's a compound financial instrument where the present value of the principal is a liability which is discounted by market rate, and the residual value in ...
