Re: Accounting of preference shares from the holder's perspective
So as per the above post, there seems to be an argument to account the equity instrument as an investment in subsidiary. Still here, there seems to be two questions which is: 1. if the holder has zero% control over the issuer, but the prefs, if converted, could potentially give them control. 2. If t...

Re: Accounting of preference shares from the holder's perspective
My thoughts are as follows, and it applies to IAS 27, not conso FS: I think one should first assess whether it's equity or debt, If the prefs are equity instruments under IAS 32 (by the issuer), e.g., non redeemable prefs. then it should be recorded as investment in subs with the options to account ...

Accounting of preference shares from the holder's perspective
Hi, When a holder subscribe for preference shares, does it matter first to determine if its preparing its consolidated FS or separate FS under IAS 27? If it's preparing its separate FS under IAS 27, my question is how the requirement of IFRS 9 comes into play with IAS 27? More specifically, under IA...

Re: Transition to IFRS vs IFRS 16
I would say that's not a full IFRS, so if your entity is within a consolidated group that need to apply ifrs then I think that some retreatment would be needed.

Re: Transition to IFRS vs IFRS 16
I'm sorry, I don't know what this means and whether it makes sense. Putting the full ifrs compliance aside, what would be the subsequent accounting? Does it mean that you just record the rent expenses in the PL?

Re: Transition to IFRS vs IFRS 16
Does the companies acts of your country allow the use of IFRS accounts or should the company establish its accounts in accordance of your local GAAP?
What's the context of the section you quoted? Is it a requirement from your local GAAP?

Re: IAS 32 contingent settlement provisions

Re: Assessing who has discretion over the redemtpion of the preference shares
I guess that sometimes, when the redemption of the prefs is contingent to certain events, e.g., IPO, liquidation, sale etc. When it's within the capacity of the issuer, then it's equity because the issuer have control over the occurrence of the event. However, if the issuer is a sub of another paren...

Assessing who has discretion over the redemtpion of the preference shares
In a situation where a subsidiary issues preference shares to its parent (100% ownership), the terms state that only the subsidiary has discretion over the redemption of the principal and dividend. A such decision is taken by the board. However, considering that the board is appointed by the shareho...

Re: IAS 12 - Deferred taxes on investment value (consolidated FS)
I think there is a tax proof question here, whether you explain the gap between expected tax expense and current tax expense in the tax proof, or you recognise a DT for losses carry forward maybe?

Re: Souscription of preference shares after closing
Yes, that would be a forward. When an investor subscribes for unpaid shares on which an obligation to pay arises for the investor, the investor would recognise an investment in subs and a liability. The liability would be measured at fair value. Do you agree? In that case, there is no difference bet...

Just to clarify, If you are preparing group accounts, than, the only option would be account for the prefs as per IFRS 9 or under IAS 28. If you are preparing separate FS, than, you can either account for the investment as a receivable under IFRS 9 or as an investment under IAS 27.10. If the instrum...

I was talking about french GAAP for statutory accounts. French GAAP for group accounts tends to converge with IFRS.

I think the presence of a dividend could be interpreted as a return associated with an ownership interest. Ultimately it's a judgement you need to make.

Re: Equity method - convertible preference shares
From your entity's separate FS's perspective, you can account for the instrument as an investment in the subs either at cost, under IFRS 9 or under equity method. If you are applying the equity method, then you can have a look at IAS 28.14, which says IFRS 9 doesn't apply to entities accounted under...

Re: Equity method exemptions
Yes, companies follow the same codification. And don't get me cancelled here, but I think there is a culture element in it. French people like when it's clear, so they practice an accounting by rules as opposed to IFRS. The concept of fair value is almost inexistent in French GAAP, and accounting is...

Re: Souscription of preference shares after closing
that's a very good remark JRSB! I think if it's unpaid capital, there is an obligation to pay cash by the investor. However, you could argue that in an agreement where the investor agree to subscribe for the shares at X LC when the shares are issued, there is also an obligation to pay. They look the...

Hi, Anyone interested to discuss this? In case of a situation mentioned in the snap shot, what would be the treatment of the preference shares? Do they follow IFRS 2 or IAS 32? and what does it really mean in terms of the accounting entries? https://assets.kpmg.com/content/dam/kpmg/be/pdf/2019/01/if...
