CHAPTER 13 NON-FINANCIAL AND CURRENT LIABILITIES CHAPTER STUDY OBJECTIVES 1. Understand the importance of non-financial and current liabilities from a business perspective. Cash flow management is a key control factor for most businesses. Taking advantage of supplier discounts for prompt payment is one step companies can take. Control of expenses and related accounts payable can improve the efficiency of a business, and can be particularly important during economic downturns.

2. Define liabilities, distinguish financial liabilities from other liabilities, and identify how they are measured. Liabilities are defined as an obligation of an entity arising from past transactions or events that are settled through a transfer of economic resources in the future. The entity should have little (or no) ability to avoid the duty or responsibility. Financial liabilities are a subset of liabilities. They are contractual obligations to deliver cash or other financial assets to another party, or to exchange financial assets or liabilities with another party under conditions that are potentially unfavourable. Financial liabilities are initially recognized at fair value, and subsequently either at amortized cost or fair value. ASPE does not specify how non-financial liabilities are measured. However, unearned revenue is generally measured at the fair value of the goods or services to be delivered in the future, while others are measured at the best estimate of the resources needed to settle the obligation. Under IFRS, non-financial liabilities other than unearned revenue are measured at the best estimate of the amount the entity would rationally pay at the date of the SFP to settle the present obligation.

3. Define current liabilities and identify and account for common types of current liabilities. Current liabilities are obligations that are payable within one year from the date of the SFP or within the operating cycle if the cycle is longer than a year. IFRS also includes liabilities held for trading and any obligation where the entity does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement beyond 12 months after the date of the SFP. There are several types of current liabilities. The most common are accounts and notes payable, and payroll-related obligations.

4. Identify and account for the major types of employee-related liabilities. Employee-related liabilities include (1) payroll deductions, (2) compensated absences, and (3) profit-sharing and bonus agreements. Payroll deductions are amounts that are withheld from employees and result in an obligation to the government or another party. The employer’s matching contributions are also included in this obligation. Compensated absences earned by employees are company obligations that are recognized as employees earn an entitlement to them, as long as they can be reasonably measured. Bonuses based on income are accrued as an expense and liability as the income is earned.

5. Explain the recognition, measurement, and disclosure requirements for decommissioning and restoration obligations. A decommissioning, restoration, or asset retirement obligation (ARO) is an estimate of the costs a company is obliged to incur when it retires certain assets. It is recorded as a liability and is usually long-term in nature. Under ASPE, only legal obligations are recognized. They are measured at the best estimate of the cost to settle them at the date of the SFP, and the associated cost is included as part of the cost of property, plant, and equipment. Under IFRS, both legal and constructive obligations are recognized. They are measured at the amount the entity would rationally pay to be relieved of the obligation, and are capitalized as part of property, plant and equipment or to inventory, if due to production activities. Over time, the liability is increased for the time value of money and the asset costs are amortized to expense. Entities disclose information about the nature of the obligation and how it is measured, with more disclosures required under IFRS than ASPE.

6. Explain the issues and account for product guarantees, other customer program obligations, and unearned revenue. Historically, an expense approach has been used to account for the outstanding liability, and this type of approach is still used for assurance-type warranties as initially discussed in Chapter 6. More recently, standards such as IFRS 15 have moved to a revenue approach for warranties that are not included in the sales price of the product (that is, for service-type warranties). Under the expense approach, the outstanding liability is measured at the cost of the economic resources needed to meet the obligation. The assumption is that, along with the liability that is required to be recognized at the reporting date, the associated expense needs to be measured and matched with the revenues of the period. Under the revenue approach, the outstanding liability is measured at the value of the obligation. The proceeds received for any goods or services yet to be delivered or performed are considered to be unearned revenue at the point of sale. Until the revenue is earned, the obligation— the liability—is reported at its sales or fair value. The liability is then reduced as the revenue is earned. More generally, when an entity receives proceeds in advance or for multiple deliverables, unearned revenue is recognized to the extent the entity has not yet performed. This is measured at the fair value of the remaining goods or services that will be delivered. When costs remain to be incurred in revenue transactions where the revenue is considered earned and has been recognized, estimated liabilities and expenses are recognized at the best estimate of the expenditures that will be incurred. This is an application of the matching concept.

7. Explain and account for contingencies and uncertain commitments, and identify the accounting and reporting requirements for guarantees and commitments. Under existing standards, a loss is accrued and a liability recognized if (1) information that is available before the issuance of the financial statements shows that it is likely (or more likely than not under IFRS) that a liability has been incurred at the date of the financial statements, and (2) the loss amount can be reasonably estimated (under IFRS, it would be a rare situation where this could not be done). Some minor changes are under consideration by the IASB as described in the Looking Ahead section of the chapter. Guarantees in general are accounted for similarly to contingencies. Commitments, or contractual obligations, do not usually result in a liability at the date of the SFP. Information about specific types of outstanding commitments is reported at the date of the SFP.

8. Indicate how non-financial and current liabilities are presented and analyzed. Current liability 13-2 Copyright © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Canada, Ltd. Unauthorized copying, distribution, or transmission of this page is prohibited

accounts are commonly presented as the first classification in the liability section of the SFP, although under IFRS, an alternative presentation is to present current assets and liabilities at the bottom of the statement. Within the current liability section, the accounts may be listed in order of their maturity or in order of their liquidation preference. IFRS requires information about and reconciliations of any provisions. Additional information is provided so that there is enough to meet the requirement of full disclosure. Information about unrecognized loss contingencies is reported in notes to the financial statements, including their nature and estimates of possible losses. Commitments at year end that are significant in size, risk, or time are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements, with significantly more information required under IFRS. Three common ratios used to analyze liquidity are the current, acid-test, and days payables outstanding ratios.

9. Identify differences in accounting between IFRS and ASPE and what changes are expected in the near future. In June 2015, a Staff Paper on the Research—Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets (IAS 37) project was published. In 2020, as a follow-up, the IASB limited its study to matters such as aligning the definition of a liability and requirements for identifying liabilities in IAS 37 with updates in the Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting, which became effective in 2020. Other goals are to clarify the costs to include in the measure of a provision and to specify whether the rates used by entities to discount provisions should reflect their own credit risk.

Ex. 13-100 Contingent liabilities Below are three independent situations: 1. In August, 2023, a worker was injured in the factory in an accident partially the result of his own negligence. The worker has sued his employer, Prince Corp., for $500,000. Prince’s legal counsel believes it is possible that the outcome of the suit will be unfavourable and that the settlement would cost the company from $150,000 to $400,000. 2. On October 4, 2023, a lawsuit for breach of contract seeking damages of $2,400,000 was filed by an author against Queen Corp. Queen's legal counsel believes that an unfavourable outcome is more likely than not. A reliable measurement of the award to the plaintiff is between $600,000 and $1,800,000. 3. King Ltd. is involved in a pending court case. King's lawyers believe it is likely that King will be awarded damages of $700,000. Instructions Discuss the proper accounting treatment, including any required disclosures, for each situation. Give the rationale for your answers. Assume all companies involved use IFRS. Solution 13-100 1. Prince should disclose, in the notes to the financial statements, the existence of a possible contingent liability related to the law suit. The note should indicate the range of the possible loss. The contingent liability should not be accrued because the loss is only possible, not probable (as required by IFRS). 2. The likely award should be accrued by a debit to an estimated loss account and a credit to an estimated liability using the expected value method. Queen should disclose the following in the notes to the financial statements: the amount of the suit, the nature of the contingency, the reason for the accrual, and the range of the possible loss. The accrual is made because it is more likely than not (probable) that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be measured reliably. 3. King should not record the gain contingency until it is realized. Usually, gain contingencies are neither accrued nor disclosed. The $700,000 gain contingency should be disclosed only if the likelihood that it will be realized is very high.

PROBLEMS Pr. 13-101 Common types of current liabilities Define and identify common types of current liabilities and how they are valued. Solution 13-101 Current liabilities are obligations due within one year or the operating cycle where this is longer than one year from the statement of financial position date. The liquidation of a current liability is reasonably expected to require the use of current assets or the creation of other current liabilities. Theoretically, liabilities should be measured at the present value of the future outlay of cash required to liquidate them. In practice, current liabilities, other than borrowings, are usually recorded in accounting records and reported in financial statements at their full maturity value. There are several types of current liabilities, the most common being accounts and notes payable, sales taxes payable, and payroll-related obligations.

CRITICAL THINKING: Yes, they are categorized differently. The purchase of goods for resale such as inventory, and even supplies, are categorized as accounts payable if they are purchased on credit instead of with cash. The term accounts payable implies that the borrowing is short term (generally 30 to 90 days) and typically does not have an interest arrangement. The purchase of equipment (a long-term asset), if purchased on credit, would normally be for a longer term, but more importantly would also require an interest arrangement and stated due date. Once a payable has a due date and interest arrangement, it is classified as a note payable. Notes payable can be classified as either current (due within one year of the statement of financial position date), or long term. This distinction helps the user understand the difference in the nature of the liabilities.

Note payable to Ontario Bank, $200,000, due January 27, 2024 The following transactions occurred early in 2024: January 15: The cash dividends were paid. January 20: The note payable to Manitoba Bank was paid. January 25: Copper entered into a financing agreement with Saskatchewan Bank, enabling it to borrow up to $1,000,000 at any time through the end of 2024. Amounts borrowed under the agreement would bear interest at 1% above the bank's prime rate and would mature 3 years from the date of the loan.

Pr. 13-104 Refinancing of short-term debt HighTide Inc. is a new business that has been operating for just under two years with great success. Located on a beach, HighTide is in the business of everything to do with surfing. The owner Alex is an avid surfer. In addition to selling boards, accessories, etc. Alex provides surfing lessons on a regular basis. Some of the lessons are located on other beaches in the area.

CRITICAL THINKING: Lines of credit are extended for companies to bridge working capital / cash shortfalls. HighTide should be using the line of credit to pay for timing differences related to inventory purchases and cash collections from sales to customers.. A purchase of a van, which is a long-term asset, would not be an acceptable use of the line of credit because long term assets should be paid for with long term debt.

At the end of the contract, EFL has one year to clean up and restore the land. EFL estimates this will cost $2,000,000. EFL uses a discounted cash flow method to calculate the fair value of this obligation and believes that 8% is the appropriate discount rate. EFL uses straight-line depreciation method. EFL uses the calendar year as its fiscal year and follows IFRS. As a helpful suggestion, students may want to draw a timeline of events before solving the questions given below.

Prepare the journal entries to be recorded on December 31, 2023. Show the amounts and accounts reported on the classified statement of financial position at December 31, 2023. After 2023, EFL was supposed to clean up and restore the land. Even though the company spent a considerable amount of money on restoration, it was sued by the province of New Brunswick for not following the contract’s requirements. On February 3, 2025, judgement was rendered against EFL for $3,000,000. The company claims that because the language in the contract was misleading regarding the restoration costs, it plans to appeal the judgement and expects the ruling to be reduced to anywhere between $1,000,000 and $2,000,000, with $1,500,000 being the probable amount. EFL has not yet released its 2024 financial statements. Discuss how EFL should report this matter on its financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Current liabilities

Since by the end of 2023 the liability is due to be discharged within a year, it should be classified as a current liability. d) This is a somewhat complicated situation. Clearly EFL is expecting a contingent loss of anywhere between $1,500,000 and $3,000,000. However, a $3,000,000 judgement has already been rendered against them, while the reduction in the loss is uncertain. There are two legitimate approaches to this issue. The first approach is to record a loss of $1,500,000 for 2024 (since this amount is deemed probable) and to provide full disclosure in the notes about the ruling and the expected appeal. The second approach is that the firm has incurred a contingent loss of $3,000,000 and expects a contingent gain of $1,500,000. Because losses are recorded immediately and contingent gains are not, then EFL should record a loss of $3,000,000 for 2024and provide full disclosure on the possible contingent gain.

Pr. 13-108 Asset retirement obligation – ASPE Grow It All Farms Ltd. is an agri-business that grows a variety of different grains on the land that it owns. Operations have been steadily expanding over the last few years. The company has now reached a point where it needs to create a reservoir for irrigation purposes. Management has applied to the municipality for permission to create the reservoir by creating a diversion from a creek that 13-64 Copyright © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Canada, Ltd. Unauthorized copying, distribution, or transmission of this page is prohibited


Test Bank for Intermediate Accounting, Thirteenth Canadian Edition

flows through land that the company owns. The permit has been approved on the condition that Grow It All Farms restore the land and creek to its natural state when operations cease. The company is required to provide the municipality financial statements on an annual basis. Management agreed to the condition and has engaged an engineering firm to scope and price out the work. The cost to create the reservoir and divert the creek is $4,000,000. The cost of the restoration is estimated to be $6,000,000 in 20 years. Grow It All Farms borrows at an average rate of 6% from its lenders. Instructions a) Prepare the journal entries to set up the asset and the obligation imposed by the municipality b) Assume that the fiscal year end is a full 12 months from the date of setting up the asset. Prepare any year end journal entries c) After 5 years, the municipality has discovered that due to the creek diversion, the fish population has dramatically been depleted, which has affected local communities. To keep the permit in place, the municipality has demanded that Grow It All Farms pay to repopulate the creek immediately, and again when the restoration work is done in the future. Management has agreed. Prepare the journal entries to reflect these requirements assuming that the cost today is $250,000 and $500,000 in the future. d) CRITICAL THINKING: Why is the municipality requiring Grow It All Farms to provide annual financial statements?

CRITICAL THINKING: The municipality is now a user of Grow It All Farms financial statements. The requirement to restore the land and creek to its natural state is a significant and expensive obligation. The municipality will want to review the financial statements of Grow It All Farms regularly to ensure that enough of a provision has been made to guarantee that the restoration will happen. A company can promise to clean up a site but making sure that there is enough resources to do so requires planning.

Pr. 13-112 Unredeemed coupons During 2023, Red Deer Corp. sold 200,000 tickets for hockey games for $60 each under a new sales promotion program. Each ticket contains one coupon. Any person who presents 2 coupons can receive a ticket to an Edmonton Flames football game for only $2. Red Deer pays $8.00 per football ticket and at the beginning of 2023 had purchased 80,000 tickets (any tickets not used in 2023 can be used in 2024). The company estimates that 60% of the coupons will be redeemed even though only 50,000 coupons had been processed during 2023. Instructions a) What amount should Red Deer report as a liability for unredeemed coupons on December 31, 2023? b) What amount of expense will Red Deer report on its 2023 income statement as a result of the promotional program? c) Prepare any necessary 2023 journal entries related to the promotion program. d) Explain how the accounting treatment for this promotion is treated under IFRS. Solution 13-112 a) The number of coupons expected to be processed is 200,000 x 60% = 120,000. In 2023, 50,000 coupons were processed, so 70,000 more are expected to be processed and accordingly 35,000 tickets to be purchased. The additional net cost per ticket is $6 and therefore the liability for unredeemed coupons at December 31, 2023 should be 35,000 x 6 = $210,000. b)

d)

Under IFRS, this promotion would be considered a multiple deliverables arrangement. Red Deer is selling two separate products (the hockey tickets and the football tickets), with the selling price of the hockey tickets inflated to encourage the ticket purchasers to also purchase football tickets. Therefore some of the revenue from the sale of each hockey ticket should be deferred and allocated to the delivery of the football tickets. An estimated amount should be deferred to 2024 when the remaining coupons will be redeemed.

Pr. 13-113 Contingencies You have been hired by Yew Corp. to advise them on how to reflect the events below in their financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 under ASPE. Event 1: The Division A employees union has been negotiating a new contract with Yew Corp. The union is requesting a 5% wage increase retroactive for two years. Yew’s management has offered the union a 2% wage increase retroactive for one year. While the negotiations are still ongoing, the company believes that an agreement will soon be reached for a 4% wage increase retroactive for one year, but there is no guarantee that this will be the outcome of the negotiations. Event 2: The Division B employees union is also negotiating a new contract with Yew Corp. However, these negotiations are proving to be very tough. So far there has not been much progress and management is pessimistic about a quick resolution. The company is concerned that during 2024 the Division B employees will decide to go on strike; in fact, Yew considers it very likely. At this point it is difficult to assess the economic consequences of the potential strike. Event 3: Toward the end of 2023, a fire destroyed one of Yew’s plants. The damage is estimated to be $8,000,000 and the company’s insurance policy has maximum coverage of $15,000,000 for this. The deductible on the policy is $300,000. The company is concerned that the insurance premium ($200,000 in 2023) will double in 2024. Instructions For each of the above events, state the accounting treatment you believe is most appropriate. Be specific and give your rationale. Solution 13-113 Event 1: The event is more likely than not to happen and the cost can be reasonably estimated. Yew Corp. should accrue an additional expense for 2023 based on the most likely outcome of a 4% wage increase retroactive for one year. In the notes to the financial statements, they should provide the range for the potential expense (2-5%, 1-2 years). Event 2: If Yew Corp. considers this to be a contingent liability, note disclosure only would be 13-71 Copyright © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Canada, Ltd.

appropriate, since the event is likely to happen but cannot be reasonably estimated. If they do not, then no disclosure is required. Event 3: The $300,000 deductible payment should be accrued in 2023 as a loss from fire. While the premium is likely to increase and can be reasonably measured, the cost relates to future periods and therefore no expense should be accrued for 2023. Full disclosure of the event and of the expected cost increase for next year is appropriate, unless the amount is immaterial. Alternatives the company could consider: 1. Shop around for a better deal on insurance. 2. Avoid the potential premium increase by choosing to self-insure.

CHAPTER 14 LONG-TERM FINANCIAL LIABILITIES CHAPTER STUDY OBJECTIVES 1. Understand the nature of long-term debt financing arrangements. Incurring long-term debt is often a formal procedure. Corporation bylaws usually require the approval of the board of directors and the shareholders before bonds can be issued or other long-term debt arrangements can be contracted. Generally, long-term debt has various covenants or restrictions. The covenants and other terms of the agreement between the borrower and the lender are stated in the bond indenture or note agreement. Notes are similar in substance to bonds but do not trade as readily in capital markets, if at all. The variety of types of bonds and notes is a result of attempts to attract capital from different investors and risk takers and to satisfy the issuers’ cash flow needs. External credit rating agencies rate bonds and assign a credit rating based on the riskiness. The credit rating helps investors decide whether to invest in a particular bond. Companies sometimes extinguish debt early using a defeasance arrangement. In a defeasance arrangement, funds are deposited into a trust and the trust continues to make the regularly scheduled payments until maturity. By using debt financing, companies can maximize income through the use of leverage. Capitalintensive industries often have higher levels of debt. Continued access to low-cost debt is important for maximizing shareholder value.

2. Understand how long-term debt is measured and accounted for. The investment community values a bond at the present value of its future cash flows, which consist of interest and principal. The rate that is used to calculate the present value of these cash flows is the interest rate that provides an acceptable return on an investment that matches the issuer’s risk characteristics. The interest rate written in the terms of the bond indenture and ordinarily appearing on the bond certificate is the stated, coupon, or nominal rate. This rate, which is set by the issuer of the bonds, is expressed as a percentage of the bond’s face value, which is also called the par value, principal amount, or maturity value. If the rate used by the buyers differs from the stated rate, the bond’s present value calculated by the buyers will differ from the bond’s face value. The difference between the bond’s face value and the present value is either a discount or a premium. Long-term debt is measured at fair value on initial recognition, including transaction costs where the instruments will be valued at amortized cost. Subsequently, the instruments are measured at amortized cost or, in certain limited situations, fair value, under the fair value option. The discount (premium) is amortized and charged (credited) to interest expense over the period of time that the bonds are outstanding. IFRS requires the effective-interest method; however, ASPE allows a choice and often smaller private entities use the straight-line method. Bonds and notes may be issued with zero interest or for a non-monetary consideration. Measurement of the bonds and the consideration must reflect the underlying substance of the transaction. In particular, reasonable interest rates must be imputed. The fair value of the debt and of the nonmonetary consideration should be used to value the transaction. 14-1 Copyright © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Canada, Ltd.

3. Understand when long-term debt is recognized and derecognized, including how to account for troubled debt restructurings. At the time of reacquisition, the unamortized premium or discount and any costs of issue that apply to the debt must be amortized up to the reacquisition date. The amount that is paid on extinguishment or redemption before maturity, including any call premium and expense of reacquisition, is the reacquisition price. On any specified date, the debt’s net carrying amount is the amount that is payable at maturity, adjusted for unamortized premium or discount and the cost of issuance. Any excess of the net carrying amount over the reacquisition price is a gain from extinguishment, whereas the excess of the reacquisition price over the net carrying amount is a loss from extinguishment. Legal defeasance results in derecognition of the liability. In substance defeasance does not. Where debt is settled by exchanging the old debt with new debt (generally in troubled debt situations), it is treated as a settlement where the terms of the agreements are substantially different, including a size test, and where the new debt is with a new lender. If not treated as a settlement, it is treated as a modification of the old debt and a new interest rate is imputed under ASPE. Under IFRS, a gain/loss is recognized. Off–balance sheet financing is an attempt to borrow funds in such a way that the obligations are not recorded. One type of off–balance sheet financing involves the use of certain variable interest entities. Accounting standard setters are studying this area with the objective of coming up with a new definition of what constitutes the reporting entity.

4. Explain how long-term debt is presented, disclosed and analyzed. Companies that have large amounts and many issues of long-term debt often report only one amount in the SFP and support this with comments and schedules in the accompanying notes. Long-term debt that matures within one year should be reported as a current liability, unless it will be retired without using current assets. If the debt is to be refinanced, converted into shares, or retired from a bond retirement fund, it should continue to be reported as non-current and accompanied by a note explaining the method to be used in its liquidation unless certain conditions are met. Note disclosures are significant and generally indicate the nature of the liabilities, maturity dates, interest rates, call provisions, conversion privileges, restrictions imposed by the creditors, and assets designated or pledged as security as well as other details. Debt to total assets and times interest earned are two ratios that provide information about debtpaying ability and long-term solvency.

5. Identify major differences in accounting standards between IFRS and ASPE, and what changes are expected in the near future. IFRS and ASPE are largely converged as they relate to long-term debt. Small differences relate to whether the debt is presented as current or non-current and in measurement. For example, ASPE has measurement standards for related party transactions. The standard setters have been working on a project entitled Financial Instruments with the Characteristics of Equity.

EXERCISES Ex. 14-73 Underwriting for bond issues Explain the difference between firm underwriting and best efforts underwriting. Solution 14-73 With firm underwriting, an investment bank or brokerage will underwrite a bond issue by guaranteeing a specified amount to the bond issuer. Thus, the broker assumes the risk of selling the bonds for whatever they can get. On the other hand, with best efforts underwriting, the agent (broker) will sell the bond issue for a commission that will be deducted from the sale proceeds.

CRITICAL THINKING: While the bond is outstanding, its price is affected by several variables, but especially by the market rate of interest. There is an inverse relationship between the market interest rate and the bond price. That is, when interest rates increase, the bond’s price decreases, and vice versa. The cash paid is based on the stated interest rate, while the interest expense recognized is based on the effective interest rate.

CRITICAL THINKING: When a bond sells below its face value, it means that investors are demanding a rate of interest that is higher than the stated rate. The investors are not satisfied with the stated rate because they can earn a greater rate on alternative investments of equal risk. Given that an investor cannot change the stated rate of the bond, they will refuse to pay face value for the bonds and instead achieve the effective rate of interest that they require by lowering the amount invested in the bonds (of the purchases price). The result is that the investors receive interest payments at the stated rate calculated on the face value, but they are essentially earning an effective rate that is higher than the stated rate because they paid less than face value for the bonds.

Ex. 14-85 Early extinguishment of debt and bond redemptions On August 1, 2021, Fresno Inc. sold 8%, five-year bonds with a maturity value of $2,000,000 for $1,964,000. Interest on the bonds is payable semi-annually on August 1 and February 1. The bonds are callable at 104 at any time after August 1, 2023. By October 1, 2023, the market rate of interest has declined, and the market price of Fresno's bonds has increased to 102. The company decides to refund the bonds by selling a new 6% bond issue to mature in five years. Fresno begins to reacquire its 8% bonds in the market and is able to purchase $600,000 worth at 102. The remainder of the outstanding bonds are acquired by exercising the bond call feature. Instructions a) Calculate Fresno’s total gain or loss in reacquiring the 8% bonds. Assume the company uses straight-line amortization.

a) b)

What are the general rules for measuring and recognizing gain or loss by the debtor on a settlement of troubled debt, which includes the transfer of non-cash assets? What are the general rules for measuring and recognizing a gain and for recording future payments by the debtor in a troubled debt restructuring?

Solution 14-88 a) If the settlement of debt includes the transfer of non-cash assets, a gain or loss is measured by the debtor as the difference between the fair value of the assets transferred and the carrying amount of the debt, including accrued interest. The debtor also recognizes a gain or loss on the disposal of assets as the difference between the fair value of the assets transferred and their book value. b)

If the carrying amount of the payable is greater than the discounted total future cash flows, based on currently prevailing interest rates, the gain is measured as the difference between the carrying amount and the discounted future cash flows. The gain is separately classified in the income statement and the nature of the restructuring is disclosed if the amount of the gain is material. The same treatment is given if a loss results. Future payments are used to reduce the principal and record interest expense.

its bond liability. CRITICAL THINKING: The controller is reviewing the year end entries. He has asked you to explain why you used the fair value option instead of the amortized cost model in accounting for long-term debt under ASPE and how this would differ under IFRS.

150,000 150,000

CRITICAL THINKING: Long-term debt is usually accounted for at amortized cost. However, both ASPE and IFRS allow the use of the fair value option, whereby financial instruments are carried at fair (market) value, an option encouraged by standard setters, although the requirements differ. ASPE allows the use of the fair value option for all financial instruments, with all changes in fair value recognized in net income. IFRS explicitly requires that the option be used only where fair value results in more relevant information. As well, IFRS 13 requires that non-performance risk (including credit risk) be included in the fair value measurement. This gives rise to a peculiar situation, since, if the credit risk is deemed to be high, the carrying value of the debt should be reduced (e.g. Dr Bond Payable) and a gain recognized. Any such gain is booked to Other Comprehensive Income.

Is Superior forecasted to be in violation of the debt covenants? If yes, what action(s) would you recommend? Discuss the advantages/disadvantages of each recommendation.

Solution 14-98 a) The interest to be paid on December 31, 2023 is $600,000 ($10,000,000 x12% x 6 ÷ 12). Half of this is to be recorded as interest expense for this quarter. Amortization of the premium is $100,000 per year, $25,000 for the fourth quarter. On September 30, 2023, at the end of the third quarter, the following entry would have been posted: Interest expense ....................................................................................... 325,000 Bond interest payable ...................................................................... 300,000 Bond payable .................................................................................... 25,000 On December 31, 2023, Superior should post the following entry: Interest expense .......................................................................................

Interest expense = ($10,000,000 x 12%) + $100,000 = $1,300,000 Income tax = $1,235,000 x 35% = $432,250

CRITICAL THINKING: Superior is forecasted to be in violation of the debt covenant. However, the ratios are very close to the minimum requirements. Your report may recommend the following: 1. Do nothing and run the risk of a default on the bond, or possibly run the risk of a negative stock-market reaction for being in violation of the covenants. 2. Meet the creditors, present your case of expected economic recovery and ask them to wait one more quarter before acting or to waive the covenants for a short period. 3. Renegotiate with the creditors. The above options might be challenging given the need to convince many creditors and the possible market reaction. 4. 5.

6.

If these are callable bonds or they can be purchased on the open market, buy some of them back to extinguish some of the debt, which will also reduce the related interest expense. Sell some operating assets that will yield a gain and use the proceeds to lower debt. For example, using the proceeds to pay your suppliers earlier may improve relations if a potential debt restructuring is to be negotiated. Apply earnings management techniques to increase earnings and total assets. For example, cut back on discretionary expenses such as advertising, repairs & maintenance, promotion, etc.

Option 4 might help to avoid the debt to total assets ratio violation, but might be too late to avoid interest expense and the violation of the times interest earned ratio violation.

CHAPTER 15 SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY CHAPTER STUDY OBJECTIVES 1. Discuss the characteristics of the corporate form of organization, rights of shareholders, and different types of shares. The three main forms of organization are the proprietorship, partnership, and corporation. Incorporation gives shareholders protection against claims on their personal assets and allows greater access to capital markets. If there are no restrictive provisions, each share carries the following rights: (1) to share proportionately in profits and losses, (2) to share proportionately in management (the right to vote for directors), and (3) to share proportionately in corporate assets upon liquidation. An additional right to share proportionately in any new issues of shares of the same class (called the pre-emptive right) may also be attached to the share. Preferred shares are a special class of share that possess certain preferences or features that common shares do not have. Most often, these features are a preference over dividends and a preference over assets in the event of liquidation. Many other preferences may be attached to specific shares. Preferred shareholders give up some or all of the rights normally attached to common shares.

2. Explain how to account for the issuance, reacquisition, and retirement of shares, stock splits, and dividend distribution. Shares are recognized and measured at net proceeds when issued. Shares may be issued on a subscription basis, in which case they are not considered legally issued until they are paid up. Shares may also be issued as a bundle with other securities, in which case the proceeds must be allocated between the securities. The residual or relative fair value methods (sometimes called the incremental or proportional methods) may be used for the allocation. If the reacquisition cost of the shares is greater than the original cost, the acquisition cost is allocated to share capital, then contributed surplus, and then retained earnings. If the cost is less, the cost is allocated to share capital (to stated or assigned cost) and to contributed surplus. Dividends paid to shareholders are affected by the dividend preferences of the preferred shares. Preferred shares can be cumulative or noncumulative, and fully participating, partially participating, or non-participating. A stock dividend is a capitalization of retained earnings that generally results in a reduction in retained earnings and a corresponding increase in certain contributed capital accounts. The total shareholders’ equity remains unchanged with a stock dividend. A stock split results in an increase or decrease in the number of shares outstanding. However, no accounting entry is required.

3. Understand how shareholders’ equity is presented, disclosed and analyzed. Contributed surplus is additional surplus coming from shareholder transactions. Accumulated other comprehensive income is accumulated non-shareholder income that has not been booked through net income. ASPE does not recognize this concept. The shareholders’ equity section of the SFP includes share capital,

Test Bank for Intermediate Accounting, Thirteenth Canadian Edition

contributed surplus, retained earnings, and accumulated other comprehensive income. A statement of changes in shareholders’ equity is required under IFRS. Basic disclosure requirements include authorized and issued share capital and changes during the period. Rights attached to shares should be presented, and where dividends are in arrears, this should also be disclosed. Where there are restrictions on retained earnings or dividends, this should be disclosed. Under IFRS, companies must also disclose information about their objectives, policies, and processes for managing capital and show summary quantitative information regarding what the company considers its capital. Common ratios used in this area are the rate of return on common shareholders’ equity, payout ratio, price earnings ratio, and book value per share.

4. Identify the major differences in accounting between IFRS and ASPE, and what changes are expected in the near future. In several cases, ASPE provides more guidance, as noted in the comparison chart in Illustration 15.8. IFRS requires a statement of changes in shareholders’ equity, whereas ASPE requires a statement of changes in retained earnings (with additional note disclosure regarding the changes in equity). The IASB is continuing to work on the Primary Financial Statements Project, the Disclosure Initiative and the Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Equity Project.

5. Explain how to account for par value and treasury shares. Par value shares may only be valued at par value in the common or preferred share accounts. The excess goes to contributed surplus. On a repurchase or cancellation, the par value is removed from the common or preferred share accounts and any excess or deficit is booked to contributed surplus or retained earnings, as was discussed for no par shares. Treasury shares are created when a company repurchases its own shares and does not cancel or retire them at the same time; that is, they remain outstanding. The single-transaction method is used when treasury shares are purchased. This method treats the purchase and subsequent resale or cancellation as part of the same transaction.

6. Explain how to account for a financial reorganization. A corporation that has accumulated a large debit balance (deficit) in retained earnings may enter into a process known as a financial reorganization. During a reorganization, creditors and shareholders negotiate a deal to put the company on a new footing. This generally involves a change in control and a comprehensive revaluation of assets and liabilities. The procedure consists of the following steps: (1) The deficit is reclassified so that the ending balance in Retained Earnings is zero. (2) The change in control is recorded. (3) All assets and liabilities are comprehensively revalued at current values.

Ex. 15-135 Shares issued in noncash transactions and trading on equity Clean Air Technologies Inc. is a new start-up company with limited available cash. The company is in desperate need of a controller, but currently cannot afford to pay one. The company knows that you are studying to be an accountant and approaches you to help them out in exchange for shares. Instructions a) Explain to Clean Air for the different options available for share valuation. b) CRITICAL THINKING: The management team at Clean Air has also hear something about “trading on equity” as a source of financing. Explain to the management team what trading on equity is and whether, as a new start-up company this would be an option for Clean Air Tech. Solution 15-135 a) The general rule to be applied when shares are issued for services or assets other than cash is that the shares be recorded at either their fair value or the fair value of the services or assets, whichever is more clearly determinable. If neither is readily determinable, the value to be assigned is generally established by the board of directors. b) CRITICAL THINKING: When the rate of return on total assets is lower than the rate of return on the common shareholders’ investment, the company is said to be trading on the equity at a gain. Trading on the equity is the practice of using borrowed money at fixed interest rates or issuing preferred shares with constant dividend rates in anticipation of obtaining a higher rate of return on the money used. (This is sometimes also referred to as leverage.) Since the company is brand new and there is currently not established, this would not be an option.

b) Critical Thinking: Norway Corp may wish to repurchase its shares for any one of the following reasons: 1. To increase earnings per share and return on equity. 2. To provide shares for employee share compensation contracts or to meet potential merger needs. 3. To stop takeover attempts or to reduce the number of shareholders. 4. To make a market in the share. By purchasing shares in the marketplace, management creates a demand that may stabilize the share price or, in fact, increase it. 5. To return cash to shareholders. There is no effect on net income as a result of the reacquisition and cancellation of shares. If the acquisition cost of the shares (purchase price) is less than the carrying value of the shares, the acquisition cost should be allocated (debited) to share capital, in an amount equal to the par, stated, or average value of the shares, with the difference allocated (credited) to contributed surplus.

Ex. 15-138 Stock dividends and retained earnings Describe the accounting treatment for the declaration of a common stock dividend. What effect would this have on retained earnings? What items increase / decrease retained earnings? Solution 15-138 If the issuing corporation is incorporated under the CBCA, the declaration would result in the transfer from retained earnings to contributed capital of an amount equal to the market value of each new share issued. Retained Earnings is debited for the total amount transferred; Common Stock Dividend Distributable is credited for the same amount. If the dividend is less than 20–25%, it is considered a small stock dividend, and would be treated this way. If, however, the stock dividend is greater than 20–25%, it is called a large stock dividend, and if the issuing corporation is not incorporated under the CBCA, it can choose to account for it like a small stock dividend, but measure at either the market value or the par or stated value of the shares, OR it can treat it as a stock split (memo entry only). In the U.S., the SEC supports treating a large stock dividend as a split. In Canada, there is no specific guidance, thus professional judgement must be used, although there may be legal constraints to consider. Items that increase retained earnings are net incomes, prior period adjustments (error corrections), financial reorganization, and certain changes in accounting principle. Items that decrease retained earnings are net losses, cash, property and most stock dividends, some treasury shares transactions, prior period adjustments (error corrections), and certain changes in accounting principle.

Ex. 15-146 Basis share rights and share capital What are the three basic or inherent rights, if there are no restrictive provisions, each share provides? What is the fourth right allowed by the CBCA for a corporation? What is the capital provided by share purchases called? Identify and explain any other types of capital the company may accumulate. Compare and contrast the two. Solution 15-146 If there are no restrictive provisions, each share gives the following three basic or inherent rights: 1. To share proportionately in profits and losses 2. To share proportionately in management (that is, the share gives the right to vote for directors) 3. To share proportionately in the corporate assets upon liquidation of the corporation The CBCA allows a corporation to assign a fourth right: the right to share proportionately in any new issues of shares of the same class. This right is known as a pre-emptive right. Contributed (paid-in) capital is the total amount that shareholders provide to the corporation for it to use in the business. Earned capital is the capital that is created by the business operating profitably. It consists of all undistributed income that remains invested in the enterprise. The distinction between paid-in capital and earned capital is important from both legal and economic points of view. Legally, there are restrictions on dividend payouts. These were discussed earlier in the chapter. Economically, management, shareholders, and others want to see earnings for the corporation’s continued existence and growth.

Other information: 1) Last year, the net income was $3,500,000, and $3,300,000 cash dividends were paid. 2) Dumbledore has two debt agreements that call for the corporation to maintain at least $2,500,000 in retained earnings, as well as maintain a debt-to-total-assets ratio of no more than 70%. 3) There has been no change in the number of shares outstanding during the year. You start to think about the recommendations you are going to make. It is the end of November, and historically the corporation has declared dividends five days before the end of the year. Instructions a) What factors will limit the amount to be distributed as dividends? b) CRITICAL THINKING: What are important considerations in your decision? What would you recommend? Provide any journal entry that is related to your decision. Solution 15-156 a) You need to determine how much can be distributed in dividends. Look at all your constraints. i) Retained earnings constraint. The debt covenant requires that Dumbledore must maintain $2,500,000 in retained earnings. The balance in retained earnings is currently $7,800,000, so the maximum dividend is $5,300,000. ii) Cash on hand constraint. As long as you do not decide to borrow additional cash, theoretically you could distribute all your cash on hand, so the dividend would be a maximum of $4,000,000. However, for practical purposes, the firm must maintain a certain level of cash for its day-to-day operations, so the actual dividend you can pay is lower. iii) Debt-to-total assets constraint. You can distribute dividends only to the point that this ratio does not exceed 70%. Currently, the ratio is 64.6% as total debt is $25,000,000 and total assets are $38,700,000. You are limited to distributing at most $3,000,000. This will bring the ratio to 70% = 25 ÷ 35.7. b)

CRITICAL THINKING: There are many considerations involved in this decision, and there is no single correct answer. Some of the main considerations are: i) Since Dumbledore distributed $3,300,000 in dividends last year, a dividend of “only” $3,000,000 will imply a dividend reduction. Firms are usually reluctant to lower dividends, so distributing $3,000,000 may not be good for shareholder relations or your image in the marketplace. ii) Even if you are not constrained, you might not want to make the dividend too large. True, this year the firm fared well, but if you distribute all the income as a dividend, and next year’s 15-89 Copyright © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Canada, Ltd. Unauthorized copying, distribution, or transmission of this page is prohibited


Test Bank for Intermediate Accounting, Thirteenth Canadian Edition

income is lower, you would have to lower your dividend, which again is not desirable. iii) Another reason to not distribute a high dividend is that it might suggest the firm does not have future growth opportunities. A business should limit dividends if the retained capital can be invested in projects with high returns. If the business does not have such projects, it is better off to distribute the earnings. If the business still has good investment opportunities, then you do not want to send the wrong message. iv) Last year’s payout ratio was very high - 94.3% (3.3 ÷ 3.5). However, maintaining a high payout ratio might create the problems already mentioned. v) You need to make sure that after you distribute cash dividends, enough resources are available to pay current liabilities. Current ratio excluding cash = 10,700,000 ÷ 9,000,000 = 1.19, so the firm does seem to be able to meet its short-term obligations even if it distributes all its cash. vi) Another solution would be to distribute a cash dividend of $3,000,000 and then a stock dividend (e.g. for $1,000,000). This will allow Dumbledore to increase the overall dividends and not violate any of the constraints. However, since the stock dividend does not give cash to the shareholders, they might not appreciate it. vii) To be able to pay more cash dividends, you need to take some action. You could sell some non-current assets and use some of the proceeds to pay down on debt, and some to distribute as dividends. Suppose you sell a $4,000,000 asset at no gain and use $2,000,000 of the proceeds to reduce debt. The change to the balance sheet amounts is: Cash plus $2,000,000 Non-current assets minus $4,000,000 Liabilities minus $2,000,000 Debt is down to $23,000,000, total assets are down to $36,700,000, and cash is increased to $6,000,000. The-debt-to-total-assets constraint allows you to distribute dividends of up to $3,840,000 and you will have plenty of cash to do so. So if you declare a cash dividend of $3,800,000, you are able to increase the dividend but still satisfy all constraints. viii) Since Dumbledore has $7,000,000 in investments, given other constraints are satisfied, another consideration is a property dividend. ix) If time allows, the corporation could issue more shares, which will relax the debt-to-totalassets ratio and the cash constraint.

b) A financial reorganization consists of the following steps: 1. Any asset writedowns or impairments that existed prior to the reorganization should be recorded first. 2. The changes in debt and equity as negotiated are recorded. Often debt is exchanged for equity, resulting in a change in control. 3. The assets and liabilities are comprehensively revalued. This step assigns appropriate fair values to all assets and liabilities as per the negotiations. The difference between the carrying values prior to the reorganization and the new values after is known as a revaluation adjustment. The revaluation adjustment and any costs incurred to carry out the financial reorganization are accounted for as capital transactions and are closed to Share Capital, Contributed Surplus or a separately identified account within Shareholders’ Equity. The new costs of the identifiable assets and liabilities must not exceed the fair value of the entity if known. 4. The deficit balance (retained earnings) is brought to zero. The deficit is reclassified to Common Shares, Contributed Surplus or a separately identified account within Shareholders’ Equity.

CHAPTER 16 COMPLEX FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS CHAPTER STUDY OBJECTIVES 1. Understand what derivatives are, how they are used to manage risks, and how to account for them. Derivatives are financial instruments that derive (get) their value from an underlying instrument. They are attractive because they transfer risks and rewards without having to necessarily invest directly in the underlying instrument. They are used for both speculative purposes (to expose a company to increased risks in the hope of increased returns) and for hedging purposes (to reduce existing risk). Financial risks include credit, currency, interest rate, liquidity, market, and other price risks. Credit risk is the risk that the other party to a financial instrument contract will fail to deliver. Currency and interest rate risk are the risk of a change in value and cash flows due to currency or interest rate changes. Liquidity risk is the risk that the company itself will not be able to honour a contract due to cash problems. Finally, market risk is the risk of a change in value and/or cash flows related to market forces. Derivatives are recognized on the SFP on the date the contract is initiated. They are remeasured, on each SFP date, to their fair value. The related gains and losses are recorded through net income. Written options create liabilities. Futures contracts require the company to deposit a portion of the contracts’ value with the broker/exchange. The contracts are marked to market by the broker/exchange daily and the company may have to deposit additional funds to cover deficiencies in the margin account. Purchase commitments that are net settleable and are not “expected use” contracts are accounted for as derivatives under IFRS. Under ASPE, purchase commitments are never accounted for as derivatives because they are not exchange-traded futures contracts. Exchangetraded derivatives relating to commodities are generally accounted for as derivatives under ASPE. Special hedge accounting may affect how derivatives are accounted for. Under IFRS, derivatives that are settleable in the entity’s own equity instruments are accounted for as equity (or contra equity) if they will be settled by exchanging a fixed number of equity instruments for a fixed amount of cash or other assets and they do not create an obligation to deliver cash or other assets. Otherwise, they are financial assets/liabilities. In general, if the instruments are net settleable or have settlement options, they most often do not meet the criteria for equity presentation and are therefore financial assets/liabilities. IFRS provides significantly more guidance with respect to the accounting for these instruments.

2. Analyze and account for hybrid/compound instruments from an issuer perspective. Complex instruments include compound and hybrid instruments where the legal form may differ from the economic substance. The economic substance dictates the accounting. The main issue is that of presentation: should the instrument be presented as debt or equity? The definitions of debt and equity are useful in analyzing this. It is also important to understand what gives the instruments their value from a finance or economic perspective. If an instrument has both debt and equity components, IFRS requires use of the residual value method in allocating the carrying value between the two 16-1 Copyright © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Canada, Ltd. Unauthorized copying, distribution, or transmission of this page is prohibited


Test Bank for Intermediate Accounting, Thirteenth Canadian Edition

components. There are differences in measuring compound financial instruments under IFRS versus ASPE. Related interest, dividends, gains, and losses are treated in a way that is consistent with the SFP presentation. The method for recording convertible bonds at the date of issuance is different from the method that is used to record straight debt issues. As the instrument is a compound instrument and contains both debt and equity components, these must be measured separately and presented as debt and equity, respectively. Any discount or premium that results from the issuance of convertible bonds is amortized, assuming the bonds will be held to maturity. If bonds are converted into other securities, the principal accounting problem is to determine the amount at which to record the securities that have been exchanged for the bond. The book value method is often used in practice. ASPE allows an entity to value the equity portion of compound instruments at $0.

3. Describe and account for share-based compensation. Stock compensation includes direct awards of stock (when a company gives the shares to an employee as compensation), compensatory stock option plans whereby an employee is given stock options in lieu of salary, share appreciation rights (SARs), and performance-type plans. SARs and performance-type plans are discussed in Appendix 16B. Employee stock option plans are meant to motivate employees and raise capital for the company. They are therefore capital transactions. Compensatory stock option plans are operating transactions since they are meant to compensate the employee for service provided. CSOPs and direct awards of stock are measured at fair value (using an options pricing model) at the grant date. The cost is then allocated to expense over the period that the employee provides service.

4. Identify differences in accounting between IFRS and ASPE, and what changes are expected in the near future. The differences are noted in the comparison chart in Illustration 16.11. The stock-based compensation standards are largely converged and stable; however, the IASB has been working on several projects relating to financial instruments, including macro hedging.

5. Understand how derivatives are used in hedging and explain how to apply hedge accounting standards. Any company or individual that wants to protect itself against different types of business risk often uses derivative contracts to achieve this objective. In general, where the intent is to manage and reduce risk, these transactions involve some type of hedge. Derivatives are useful tools for this since they have the effect of transferring risks and rewards between the parties to the contract. Derivatives can be used to hedge a company’s exposure to fluctuations in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, equity, or commodity prices. Hedge accounting is optional accounting that ensures that properly hedged positions will reduce volatility in net income created by hedging with derivatives. It seeks to match gains and losses from hedged positions with those of the hedging items so that they may be offset. Since this is special accounting, companies must ensure that there is in fact a real hedge (that the contract insulates the company from economic loss or undesirable consequences) and that the hedge remains effective. Proper documentation of the risks and risk management strategy is important. Under IFRS, there are fair value hedges and cash flow hedges. A fair value hedge reduces risks relating to fair value changes of recorded assets and liabilities as well as purchase commitments. Cash flow 16-2 Copyright © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Canada, Ltd. Unauthorized copying, distribution, or transmission of this page is prohibited


Test Bank for Intermediate Accounting, Thirteenth Canadian Edition

hedges protect against future losses due to future cash flow changes relating to exposures that are not captured on the SFP. ASPE does not discuss fair value or cash flow hedges but rather stipulates the accounting for certain types of specific hedge transactions. Properly hedged positions reduce income fluctuations because gains and losses are offset. Under IFRS, for cash flow hedges, the gains and losses on the hedging items are booked through other comprehensive income and are brought into net income in the same (future) period that the hedged items are booked to net income. For fair value hedges, hedge accounting adjusts the hedged asset to ensure that it is recognized and measured at fair value and that related gains/losses are booked through net income. Both types of hedges ensure that the gains/losses of the hedged and hedging positions offset. Under ASPE hedge accounting, the hedging item (which is generally a derivative) is not recognized on the balance sheet until the hedging item is settled. Thus both the hedged item (usually a future transaction) and the hedging item (the derivative) are off–balance sheet and there is no mismatch (Appendix 16A).

6. Account for share appreciation rights plans and performance-type plans. SARs are popular because the employee can share in increases in value of the company’s shares without having to purchase them. The increases in value over a certain amount are paid to the employee as cash or shares. Obligations to pay cash represent a liability that must be remeasured. The cost is therefore continually adjusted, with the measurement date being the exercise date. The related expense is spread over the service period. If the SARs are not exercised at the end of the service period, the liability must continue to be remeasured. Cash-settled SARs are measured using intrinsic values under ASPE and fair value (using options pricing models) under IFRS. Some SARs are settled using equity instruments. These are treated as equity and measured at fair value. ASPE allows an accounting policy choice as to how to measure equity-settled SARs. Performance-type plans are tied to performance (of the entity, the individual, or a group of individuals). There is therefore more measurement uncertainty (Appendix 16B).

7. Understand how options pricing models are used to measure financial instruments. Fair value is most readily determined where there is an active market with published prices. Where this is not the case, a valuation technique is used. More basic techniques included discounted cash flows. More complex techniques include options pricing models such as the Black-Scholes and binomial tree models. Where possible, valuation techniques should use available external inputs to ensure that they are more objective. Having said this, significant judgement goes into determining fair values using options pricing models (Appendix 16C).

8. Describe and analyze required fair value disclosures for financial instruments. Additional disclosures relating to fair values of financial instruments provide useful information about the reliability of fair value estimates. As discussed in earlier chapters, including chapters 2 and 3, the IASB has established a fair value hierarchy that ranks the reliability of the fair value measures. Note disclosures under IFRS require information about which financial instruments are classified as levels 1, 2, or 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Additional information is required to be disclosed where the financial instruments are Level 3 instruments because Level 3 measurements are less reliable.

Ex. 16-95 Convertible debt and debt with warrants a) Explain in detail the accounting treatment required for convertible debt under both IFRS and ASPE. b) Explain how this compares to or differs from the accounting required for debt issued with stock warrants. Solution 16-95 a) Convertible debt is a hybrid/compound financial instrument and is generally treated as having both a debt component and an equity component. The conversion feature makes the bond more valuable to an investor; therefore, the convertible feature has value. Under IFRS, compound instruments must be split into their components and presented separately in the financial statements. IFRS also requires the use of the residual method: the value of the debt component is determined, and the balance is assigned to the equity component (as contributed surplus). ASPE allows a zero value to be assigned to the equity component, or the use of the residual method. b) When debt is issued with stock warrants, the warrants are also given separate recognition. After issue, the debt and the detachable warrants trade separately. The proceeds may be allocated to the 16-51 Copyright © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Canada, Ltd.

How should Atlanta account for the conversion of the bonds under the book value method? Discuss the rationale for this method. Solution 16-98 To account for the conversion of bonds under the book value method, Bonds Payable should be debited for the current carrying value, the entire amount of Contributed Surplus—Conversion Rights should be removed (debited), and Common Shares should be credited for the total of these two amounts. The current market value of the shares is irrelevant. No gain or loss on conversion is recorded. The amount to be recorded for the shares is equal to the carrying value of the bonds plus the balance of the Contributed Surplus—Conversion Rights that was recorded when the convertible bonds were first issued. The rationale for the book value method is that the conversion is the completion of the transaction initiated when the bonds were issued. Since this is viewed as a transaction with shareholders, no gain or loss should be recognized. Note that both ASPE and IFRS require the use of the book value method.

Ex. 16-99 Redeemable preferred shares and succession planning Explain how redeemable preferred shares are used in succession planning for small business corporations. Solution 16-99 In succession planning for a small business, it is advantageous to use high/low redeemable preferred shares. The common shares of the existing company are transferred to a new company on a tax deferred basis. The retiring family member receives new redeemable preferred shares that will freeze their interest at the current value of the business. These shares may be redeemed over time. The next generation of the family receives the new common shares, which will result in any future increase in value of the business accruing to them.

Carbon Energy Inc. is a new technology start up. It has decided to adopt a stock option plan for its executive management team, since it does not believe it will have available cash on hand for year-end bonuses. The plan was implemented on July 1, 2023, and provides participants with the right to purchase up to 4,000 common shares at $30 per share. The current fair value of the shares is estimated at $26.50 per share. Options for the maximum number of shares allowed under the plan was granted to three members of the executive management team on September 15, 2023, for services performed in 2023. The options have an expiry date of January 31, 2024. The compensation expense was estimated at $270,000 based on an appropriate option pricing model.

Ex. 16-106 Fair value disclosure for financial instruments – IASB standards What are the IASB rules regarding disclosure of financial instruments in the notes to the financial statements and why? Solution 16-106 Both the cost and fair value of all financial instruments are to be reported in the notes to the financial statements. IASB has decided that companies should disclose information that enables users to determine the extent of usage of fair value and the inputs used to implement fair value measurement. Two reasons for this are: 1. Differing levels of reliability exist in the measurement of fair value information; therefore, it is important to understand the varying risks involved in the measurement. 2.

Changes in the fair value of financial instruments are reported differently in the financial statements, depending on the type of financial instrument involved and whether the fair value option is used. Note disclosure provides an opportunity to explain more precisely the impact of the changes in the value of the financial instruments on financial results. 16-60

using an option pricing model to value the options, the total compensation expense was estimated to be $510,000. At January 2, 2022, the market price of the shares was $50. On January 1, 2023, 3,000 options were terminated (forfeited) when an employee left the company. The market value of the shares at that date was $32. All the remaining options were exercised during 2026: 17,000 on January 3 when the market price was $62, and 10,000 on May 1 when the market price was $77. Instructions a) Calculate the intrinsic value and the time value of the stock option. b) Prepare journal entries related to the stock option plan for the years 2022 through 2026. Assume that the employees perform services equally from 2022 through 2025. Year end is December 31. c) Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of offering stock options to employees as a means of compensation. Solution 16-108 a) The intrinsic value of the option is the difference between the market price and the strike (exercise) price. In this case the market price is $50 and the strike price is $46. Intrinsic value component: ($50 – $46) x 30,000 = $120,000 The time value of the option is the remaining value of the options. Since the total value of the options is $510,000, then the difference between the total value and the intrinsic value should be the time value component.

There are several advantages and disadvantages to the use of stock options as compensation.

Advantages • This type of compensation is tied to performance, which should motivate employees to work hard. • The mandatory service period helps to retain employees. If employees become more productive over time as they become more experienced, then the firm benefits. • Employees become shareholders if they exercise the options. This ensures that they will act in the best interests of the company. • Employees will benefit from any appreciation of the stock price. Disadvantages • Employees might be low risk tolerant and therefore not like the risk inherent in stock options. 16-64 Copyright © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Canada, Ltd.

Test Bank for Intermediate Accounting, Thirteenth Canadian Edition

• •

If employees do not understand the value of the options, they will not consider it a benefit and might ask for additional pay instead, so the firm will end up paying them more. Employees have limited ability to affect the stock price, so the stock options might not motivate them to work hard.

Pr. 16-109 Employee stock options Ocean Block Inc. is a new business that has been experiencing significant growth. To attract new staff, the company has established an employee stock option plan that has both an ESOP and a CSOP component to the program. The ESOP component is available to all employees, while the CSOP is only available to executive management. At Dec 31, 2023, a total of 100,000 stock options were granted to 5 executive managers. The options have a vesting period of 2 years and expire 3 years from the end of the vesting period. If a manager leaves the firm, the options are terminated. Based on commonly used option pricing models, the intrinsic value of the 100,000 options is $200,000, and the time value of the options is $300,000. The exercise price on the shares is $45 for both the ESOP and CSOP. Instructions a) What is the total amount of compensation expense associated with the CSOP options? b) All of the executives stayed with the business to the end of the vesting period and earned the options evenly throughout the period. On June 30, 2026, 40,000 options were exercised when the market price of the shares was $55. What are the journal entries from the date of grant to the date of exercise? c) Two front-line staff who were hired in 2023 decided that they would like to participate in the ESOP established by the company. On June 30, 2024, each of them purchased 1,000 options at a premium of $4.50 each and exercised their right to buy shares at the same time as the executive managers did. What are the journal entries for these transactions? d) CRITICAL THINKING: What is a fundamental difference between an ESOP and a CSOP that is evident in the accounting treatment? Solution 16-109 a) Intrinsic value + Time value = Total value of the options (the compensation expense) $200,000 + $300,000 = $500,000 b) December 31, 2023 – No entry 16-65 Copyright © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Canada, Ltd.

d) CRITICAL THINKING: An ESOP is available to everyone and has nothing to do with performance or compensation for specific activities as a result of being employed with the organization. A CSOP is tied to performance and only available to defined groups of employees. The difference is also evident in the accounting treatment in that a CSOP will require “compensation expense” to be recorded whereas an ESOP does not. Another difference is that an ESOP would require the employee to purchase the option by paying the premium with cash, where the CSOP does not as the employee earns the option itself.

On August 1, 2023, Alpha Corporation called its 10% convertible bonds for conversion. The $4,000,000 par value bonds were converted into 160,000 no par common shares. On August 1, there was $350,000 of unamortized premium applicable to the bonds. At the time of issuance, Contributed Surplus—Conversion Rights was credited for $150,000, which represented the equity portion of the convertible bonds, and the market value of the common shares was $20 per share. The company records the conversion using the book value method. Ignore all interest payments. Beta Inc. issues 10% convertible bonds, par $1,000,000, at 97. The investment banker indicates that if the bonds had not been convertible they would have sold at 94. Use the residual method. Gamma Ltd. issues $2,000,000 par value, 8% bonds. To help the sale, detachable stock warrants are issued at the rate of ten warrants for each $1,000 bond sold. It is estimated that the value of the bonds without the warrants is $1,974,000 and the value of the warrants is $126,000. The bonds with the warrants sold at 101. Use the residual method.

Pr. 16-112 Convertible debt TinTech is a new technology start-up firm that is looking to grow quickly. While the company has secured investors who have already purchased equity, additional funds are needed to pay for the development of a new application that TinTech wants to bring to market. One of the existing investors approached the management team of TinTech and offered to purchase a new convertible bond from TinTech but wanted very favourable conversion terms and a 6% coupon paid semi-annually. The company needs $3,000,000 to cover all the software development costs along with additional hardware that is needed to support the project. It is estimated that the application will take 1 year to build and 5 years to generate enough excess cash flow to pay back the bond. The market rate for similar debt is 4%. TinTech is following IFRS. Instructions a) What should the term of the bond be, based on the information above? b) What is the present value of this bond if it was issued without any convertible features? (Round to the nearest dollar). How would the issue price be quoted in the market? c) The investor and the management team have agreed to the following conversion feature: Each $10,000 bond can be converted into 500 Class B common shares. The Class B common shares are a new class that come with 100 votes per share instead of 1. The estimated market price per Class B common share is $300. With this conversion feature, the bond is being issued at 115 on Jan. 1, 2023. Prepare the journal entry for the issuance of this bond. d) Exactly halfway through the term of the bond, the investor decided to convert the bond into the Class B common shares. How many shares are issued? Prepare the necessary journal entry. e) CRITICAL THINKING: Why do you think the investor pushed for favourable terms with regards to the conversion rights? Do you think that the terms are overly favourable? How would you react if you were one of the other investors? Solution 16-112 a) 1 year to build, plus 5 years to have enough cash to pay back the principal means that the company should set the term at 6 years. b) Use the follow variables for a financial calculator: FV $3,000,000 PMT $90,000 (6% coupon x $3,000,000/2) 16-69 Copyright © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Canada, Ltd.

e) CRITICAL THINKING: The investor likely pushed for more favourable terms because debt carries risk. In this particular case, since TinTech is a new company, the risk of non-payment (both interest and the principal) is probably fairly high. Being granted a right to acquire shares that carry more voting power than the existing shareholders is quite favourable and may come with governance issues. TinTech now has a single investor that may have more voting power (depending on the structure of the remaining shares) than the other existing investors. The other investors may be upset with this arrangement, or, in the least, would want an opportunity to participate equally in the bond issuance.

*Pr. 16-114 Hedging Identify and describe the five steps used to analyze whether hedge accounting is necessary. *Solution 16-114 1. Identify the hedged item. Which risk is being hedged? 2.

Identify the hedging item. This is usually a derivative instrument that the company has purchased or signed a contract for (such as a forward, future, option, or swap). If a risk is properly hedged, the hedging item reduces the risk noted in step 1 above.

3.

Identify how the hedged item is being accounted for without hedge accounting. Note that it might not even be recognized on the SFP yet if it is an anticipated transaction, such as a future purchase. Is it accounted for at FV-NI or FV-OCI or some sort of cost basis?

4.

Note that the hedging item, which is normally a derivative, will be accounted for using FV-NI unless hedge accounting is applied. Therefore, if the hedged item is accounted for in any other way, we may need to consider using hedge accounting if IFRS and/or ASPE allows it. 16-71

Test Bank for Intermediate Accounting, Thirteenth Canadian Edition

5.

Locate where the recognized gains and losses for the hedged and hedging items are recognized (net income, OCI, or perhaps not at all). Do the gains and losses from the hedged item and hedging items offset? If they do, then we would say that there is symmetry in the accounting. The gains and losses are treated similarly in terms of measuring net income or OCI. If they do not offset, then we may need to consider hedge accounting if IFRS and/or ASPE allows it. In this case, we would argue that there is no symmetry in accounting unless we apply hedge accounting.

*Pr. 16-116 Hedging (forward contract) On May 1, 2023, Bella Corp., a coffee wholesaler, placed an order with its supplier for six tonnes of coffee, to be delivered and paid for on September 30, 2023. At that time, the spot (current) price for one tonne of coffee was $3,000, and the future (forward) price for September 30, 2023, delivery was $2,900. Thus, Bella decided to enter into a forward contract for six tonnes of coffee at $2,900 per tonne for September 30, 2023, delivery. It designated the contract as a cash flow hedge. The contract further calls for a net cash settlement. Bella’s year end is June 30, 2023. At that date the spot price was $2,980, the future price for threemonth delivery was $2,880, and the future price for five-month delivery was $2,850. On September 30, 2023, when the spot price was $2,940 and the future price for five-month delivery was $2,980, the company took delivery of the coffee, paid its supplier, and settled the forward contract. On October 31, 2023, Bella sold three tonnes of coffee from this delivery to Java Unlimited for $3,400 per tonne cash. Assume all prices are in Canadian dollars. Instructions a) Prepare journal entries for the following dates in 2023: May 1, June 30, September 30, and October 31. Bella is a publicly traded corporation and follows IFRS requirements. b) CRITICAL THINKING: The CFO of Bella is questioning your decision to use hedging. Explain how you made the decision to hedge this transaction. What criteria did you take into consideration? Would your answer be different if the future price were $3,100? *Solution 16-116 a) May 1: No entry. The contract value is zero. Memo entry only.

There is an optimal level of risk a firm desires to take on, and, accordingly, a decision should be made. The future price should not affect the decision as it represents the market expectations of the price at the time the company will take delivery and pay for the coffee. The future price will affect the decision only in the case the company has different expectations than the market about the future price. Because Bella is not a currency speculator, but makes its profits from selling coffee, it would make sense for this company to lower its market risk and hedge the transaction.

Pr. 16-118 Fair value hierarchy What is the fair value hierarchy and what information must a company provide under this hierarchy? Solution 16-118 To highlight reliability in reporting, the IASB established a fair value hierarchy with three broad levels. Level 1 is the most reliable measurement because fair value is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 is less reliable – it is not based on quoted market prices for identical assets and liabilities, but instead may be based on similar assets or liabilities. Level 3 is least reliable – is uses unobservable inputs that reflect the company’s assumption as to the value of the financial instrument. Companies must provide: 1. Quantitative information about significant unobservable inputs used for all level three measurements. 2. A qualitative discussion about the sensitivity of recurring level three measurements to changes in the unobservable inputs disclosed. 3. A description of the company’s valuation process. 4. Any transfers between Levels 1 and 2 of the fair value hierarchy 5. Information about non-financial assets measured at fair value at amounts that differ from the assets’ highest and best use 6.

CHAPTER 17 EARNINGS PER SHARE CHAPTER STUDY OBJECTIVES 1. Understand why earnings per share (EPS) is an important number and how it should be presented, disclosed and analyzed. Earnings per share numbers give common shareholders an idea of the amount of earnings that can be attributed to each common share. This information is often used to predict future cash flows from the shares and to value companies. Under IFRS, EPS must be presented for all public companies or companies that are intending to go public. The calculations must be presented on the face of the income statement for net income from continuing operations and net income (for both basic EPS and diluted EPS in the case of complex capital structures). When there are discontinued operations, the per share impact of these items must also be shown, but it can be shown either on the face of the income statement or in the notes to the financial statements. Comparative calculations must also be shown. EPS is one of the most commonly used metrics for assessing performance. Diluted EPS is especially important because it allows for the effects of potential dilution. The price earnings ratio is often used to value companies.

2. Calculate basic earnings per share. Basic earnings per share is an actual calculation that takes income available to common shareholders and divides it by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period

3. Calculate diluted earnings per share. Diluted earnings per share is a “what if” calculation that considers the impact of potential common shares. Potential common shares include convertible debt and preferred shares, options and warrants, contingently issuable shares, and other instruments that may result in additional common shares being issued by the company. They are relevant because they may cause the present interests of the common shareholders to become diluted. The if-converted method considers the impact of convertible securities such as convertible debt and preferred shares. It assumes that the instruments are converted at the beginning of the year (or issue date, if later) and that any related interest or dividend is thus avoided. The treasury stock method looks at the impact of written call options on EPS numbers. It assumes that the options are exercised at the beginning of the year and that the money from the exercise is used to buy back shares in the open market at the average common share price. The reverse treasury stock method looks at the impact of written put options. It assumes that the options are exercised at the beginning of the year and that the company first issues shares in the market (at the average share price) to obtain sufficient funds to buy the shares under the option. Antidilutive potential common shares are irrelevant because they would result in diluted EPS calculations that are higher than the basic EPS. Diluted EPS must show the worst possible EPS number. Note that purchased options and written options that are not in the money are ignored for purposes of calculating diluted EPS because they are either antidilutive or will not be exercised 17-1 Copyright © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Canada, Ltd.

4. Identify the major differences in accounting between IFRS and ASPE, and what changes are expected in the near future. ASPE does not prescribe accounting standards for EPS. The IASB and FASB were working on a revised plan of action to study the issues. At the time of writing, work on the project was paused.

Solution 17-59 a) Common shares are entitled to the residual interest in net income, after preferred dividends are deducted. That is why EPS is normally only calculated for common shares. b) Earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income less preferred dividends by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. c) Basic EPS – looks at the actual earnings and the actual number of common shares outstanding. Earnings per share disclosures help investors by indicating the amount of income that is earned by each share. It helps shareholders assess future dividend payouts and value of each share. Diluted EPS – is a “what if” calculation that takes into account the possibility that financial instruments such as convertible debt and options might have a negative impact on existing shareholder returns; therefore, the shares value. It a corporation has a complex capital structure both EPS and diluted EPS would be presented. d)

A complex capital structure exists when a corporation has convertible securities, options, warrants, or other rights that, upon conversion or exercise, could dilute earnings per share.

these differences in detail. Solution 17-60 EPS is required under IFRS only and is presented on the face of the income statement. This is due to the importance of EPS information for companies whose shares are trading on the stock markets or that are in the process of listing on a stock market. In Canada only publicly traded companies are required use IFRS. Privately held companies can choose to whether or not they wish to prescribe to IFRS. ASPE does not require EPS calculations or disclosures, mainly because these firms are closely held and due to the cost – benefit considerations. The are no standards for calculating EPS under ASPE at all. As a result, IFRS requires the following: • Earnings per share amounts must be shown for all periods presented. • If there has been a stock dividend or stock split, all per share amounts of prior period earnings should be restated using the new number of outstanding shares. • If diluted EPS data are reported for at least one period, they should be reported for all periods that are presented, even if they are the same basic EPS. • When the results of operations of a prior period have been restated the corresponding EPS date should also be restated. The restatement’s effect should then be disclosed in the year of the restatements.

Instructions Calculate the following for 2023: a) Basic earnings per share b) Diluted earnings per share c) CRITICAL THINKING: The CEO of Kali has asked you to explain why a company would want to calculate diluted EPS (DEPS). Explain the importance of DEPS and when it is used. Solution 17-63 a) Basic earnings per share:

Net income $600,000 = = $1.50 Outstandin g shares 400,000

Incremental effect of conversion of bonds Bond interest after taxes $245,000 = = $2.45 Assumed incrementa l shares 100,000 b) The conversion of the bonds would be antidilutive, since the incremental effect of $2.45 is greater than the basic EPS of $1.50. No diluted EPS calculation is required. The basic and diluted earnings per share of $1.50 should be reported. c) CRITICAL THINKING: The diluted EPS calculation is especially useful because there are many potential common shares outstanding through convertible securities, options and warrants, and other financial instruments, and shareholders need to understand how these instruments can affect their holdings. From an economic perspective, it is therefore important to carefully analyze the potential dilutive impact of the various securities instruments, and the IASB is helping make it possible to do such analyses by continually striving to ensure greater transparency in EPS calculations.

In contrast, a company is said to have a complex capital structure if the structure includes securities that could have a dilutive or negative effect (that is, a lowering effect) on earnings per common share.

Ex. 17-65 Issuance of stock dividends/splits versus issuance/repurchase of shares Why does the issuance of a stock dividend or stock split require a restatement (which is applied retroactively), but the issuance or repurchase of shares for cash does not? Solution 17-65 Stock splits and stock dividends do not increase or decrease the net enterprise’s assets; only additional shares are issued. Therefore, the weighted average number of shares must be restated. By restating the number, valid comparisons of earnings per share can be made between periods before and after the stock split or stock dividend. Conversely, the issuance or purchase of shares for cash changes the amount of net assets. The company earns either more or less in the future as a result of this change in net assets. Stated another way, a stock dividend or split does not change the shareholders’ total investment; it only increases (or decreases if it is a reverse stock split) the number of common shares. 17-35 Copyright © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Canada, Ltd.

Ex. 17-66 Effect of dilutive securities on diluted earnings per share calculations A publicly accountable enterprise is planning on issuing the following two securities in the coming year 1. Convertible debt where mandatory conversion will take place five years after issue. 2. Debt with detachable warrants. The warrants can be exercised if profits exceed $1,000,000 in the next five years. Instructions Discuss how these two securities will affect the diluted earnings per share calculation. Solution 17-66 1. The convertible debt is an example of an instrument that is mandatorily convertible. As a result, it is assumed the conversion has already taken place for calculating diluted earnings per share. The common shares should be treated as if they were outstanding and included in the weighted average of common shares calculation. 2.

The second instrument is an example of contingently issuable shares, contingent on profits exceeding $1,000,000 for the shares to be issued. If this condition is already met, then the shares must be treated as if they are issued. However, if the condition has not been met, then these shares should not be included in the diluted EPS calculation until the condition has been met.

Determine, for each dilutive security, the incremental per share effect if the security is exercised or converted. 2. Where there are multiple dilutive securities, rank the results from the lowest earnings effect per share to the largest; that is, rank the results from the most dilutive to least dilutive. The instruments with the lowest incremental EPS calculation will drag the EPS number down the most and are therefore most dilutive. 3. Beginning with the basic earnings per share based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, recalculate the earnings per share by adding the most dilutive per share effects from the first step. If the results from this recalculation are less than EPS in the prior step, go to the next most dilutive per share effect and recalculate the earnings per share. This process is continued as long as each recalculated earnings per share amount is smaller than the previous amount. The process will end either because there are no more securities to test or because a particular security maintains or increases the earnings per share (that is, it is antidilutive).

Ex. 17-72 Company valuation Using EPS When and how might EPS be used for company valuation? Solution 17-72 Company Valuation using EPS Typically, a normalized or sustainable cash flow or earnings number should be used in the valuation calculation because earnings of new income may be of higher or lower quality. However, since this requires significant judgement when valuing common shares, the EPS number is sometimes used instead because it is believed to be more reliable and all inclusive. PE ratio divides the price of the share by EPS and result is called a multiplier. The multiplier shows the per share value that each dollar of earnings generates. This is a rough calculation only and must be used with caution.

Ex. 17-73 Assessing performance using EPS How can EPS be used to assess performance and what challenges arise with this measurement? Solution 17-73 EPS can be used to assess management stewardship and predict future value. Therefore, IFRS is very specific regarding its calculation. From an economic perspective, it is very important to carefully analyze the potential dilutive impact of various securities instruments. This can be quite difficult due to the complexity of financial instruments that are very complex and difficult to break down. IASB is continually striving to create greater transparency in EPS calculations.

This informs investors how much of the firm’s earnings they “own” and will help them in predicting future dividend payouts. Diluted EPS provides shareholders with a more realistic picture of the future EPS as it also considers complex financial instruments that are not common shares yet, but are likely to be converted into common shares, which will lower the current shareholder’s share of the earnings. Diluted EPS can also be viewed as a “worst case” scenario for the current shareholders. Difficulty: Medium Learning Objective: Calculate basic earnings per share.

Pr. 17-83 If-converted, treasury stock and reverse treasury stock methods Explain the if-converted, treasury stock and reverse treasury stock methods that are used to consider the impact of potential common shares on diluted earnings per share. Solution 17-83 The if-converted method considers the impact of convertible securities such as convertible debt and convertible preferred shares. It assumes that the instruments are converted at the beginning of the year (or issue date, if later) and that any related interest or dividend is thus avoided. The treasury stock method looks at the impact of written call options on EPS numbers. It assumes that the options are exercised at the beginning of the year and that the money from the exercise is used to buy back shares in the open market at the average common share price. The reverse treasury stock method looks at the impact of written put options. It assumes that the options are exercised at the beginning of the year and that the company first issues shares in the market (at the average share price) to obtain sufficient funds to buy the shares under the option.

CHAPTER 18 INCOME TAXES CHAPTER STUDY OBJECTIVES 1. Understand the importance of income taxes from a business perspective. When a company decides where to set up its operations, a major consideration is the tax rate that it will face on its profits. The fact that corporate taxes can slow growth may help to explain why governments in Canada have steadily reduced corporate tax rates over time. For example, the combined federal and provincial tax rate declined from an average of approximately 43% to approximately 26.5% between 2000 and 2021.

2. Explain the difference between accounting income and taxable income, and calculate taxable income and current income taxes. Accounting income is calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Taxable income is calculated in accordance with prescribed tax legislation and regulations. Because tax legislation and GAAP have different objectives, accounting income and taxable income often differ. To calculate taxable income, companies start with their accounting income and then add and deduct items to adjust the GAAP measure of income to what is actually taxable and tax deductible in the period. Current tax expense and income taxes payable are determined by applying the current tax rate to taxable income.

3. Explain taxable and deductible temporary differences, determine their amounts, and calculate deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets. A taxable temporary difference is the difference between the carrying amount of an asset or liability and its tax base with the consequence that, when the asset is recovered or the liability is settled in the future for an amount equal to its carrying value, the taxable income of that future period will be increased. Because taxes increase in the future as a result of temporary differences that exist at the SFP date, the future tax consequences of these taxable amounts are recognized in the current period as a deferred tax liability. A deductible temporary difference is the difference between the carrying amount of an asset or liability and its tax base with the consequence that, when the asset is recovered or the liability is settled in the future for an amount equal to its book value, the taxable income of that future period will be reduced. Because taxes are reduced in the future as a result of temporary differences that exist at the SFP date, the future tax consequences of these deductible amounts are recognized in the current period as a deferred tax asset.

4. Prepare analyses of deferred tax balances and record deferred tax expense. The following steps are taken: (1) identify all temporary differences between the carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities at the SFP date; (2) calculate the correct net deferred tax asset or liability balance at the end of the period; (3) compare the balance in the deferred tax asset or liability before the adjustment with the correct balance at the SFP date—the difference is the deferred tax expense/benefit; and (4) 18-1 Copyright © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Canada, Ltd.

make the journal entry, which is based on the change in the amount of the net deferred tax asset or liability.

5. Explain the effect of multiple tax rates and tax rate changes on income tax accounts, and calculate current and deferred tax amounts when there is a change in substantively enacted tax rates. Tax rates other than the existing rates can be used only when the future tax rates have been enacted into legislation or substantively enacted. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rate that applies to the specific future years in which the temporary difference is expected to reverse. When there is a change in the future tax rate, its effect on the future tax accounts is recognized immediately. The effects are reported as an adjustment to deferred tax expense in the period of the change.

6. Account for tax loss carryover benefits, including any note disclosures. A company may carry a taxable loss back three years and receive refunds to a maximum of the income taxes paid in those years. Because the economic benefits related to the losses carried back are certain, they are recognized in the period of the loss as a tax benefit on the income statement and as an asset (income tax receivable) on the balance sheet. A post-2005 tax loss can be carried forward and applied against the taxable incomes of the next 20 years. If the economic benefits related to the tax loss are more likely than not to be realized during the carryforward period, they are recognized in the period of the loss as a deferred tax benefit in the income statement and as a deferred tax asset on the SFP. Otherwise, they are not recognized in the financial statements. Alternatively, ASPE also allows the use of a contra valuation allowance account, but this approach is not used under IFRS. Disclosure is required of the amounts of tax loss carryforwards and their expiry dates. If previously unrecorded tax losses are subsequently used to benefit a future period, the benefit is recognized in that future period.

7. Explain why the Deferred Tax Asset account is reassessed at the statement of financial date, and account for the deferred tax asset with and without a valuation allowance account. Every asset must be assessed to ensure that it is not reported at an amount higher than the economic benefits that are expected to be received from the use or sale of the asset. The economic benefit to be received from the deferred tax asset is a reduction in taxes payable in future years. If it is unlikely that sufficient taxable income will be generated in the future to allow the future deductions, the income tax asset may have to be written down. If previously unrecognized amounts are now expected to be realizable, a deferred tax asset and a deferred tax benefit would be recognized.

8. Identify and apply the presentation and disclosure requirements for income tax assets and liabilities, and apply intraperiod tax allocation, and discuss analytics. Under all methods, current income taxes payable or receivable are reported separately as a current liability or current asset. Under IFRS, the deferred tax accounts are all classified as non-current. Current and deferred tax expense is reported separately with income before discontinued operations, discontinued operations, items in OCI, retained earnings, and other capital. Separate disclosure is required of the amounts and expiry dates of unused tax losses, and the amount of deductible temporary differences for which no 18-2 Copyright © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Canada, Ltd. Unauthorized copying, distribution, or transmission of this page is prohibited


Test Bank for Intermediate Accounting, Thirteenth Canadian Edition

deferred tax asset has been recognized. Under ASPE and assuming a single tax authority, future income tax assets and liabilities are classified as one net non-current amount. ASPE calls for limited disclosures, but under IFRS, additional disclosures are required about temporary differences and unused tax losses, the major components of income tax expense, and the reasons for the difference between the statutory tax rate and the effective tax rate. Analytics can help assess earnings quality.

9. Identify the differences between ASPE and IFRS for income taxes, and what changes are expected in the near future. ASPE allows an accounting policy choice—either the taxes payable method or the future income taxes method—while IFRS requires use of the temporary difference approach (a method consistent with the future income taxes method). The main differences relate to terminology, the SFP classification of deferred/future tax assets and liabilities, use of a valuation allowance, and the extent of disclosure. The Looking Ahead section summarizes some recent developments.

10. Apply the temporary difference approach (future income taxes method) of accounting for income taxes in a comprehensive situation. In a comprehensive situation, take the following steps. (1) Calculate the current tax expense and payable. (2) Determine the taxable and deductible temporary differences as the difference between the carrying amounts and tax bases of the assets and liabilities; calculate the correct balance of the Deferred Tax Asset or Deferred Tax Liability account. (3) Determine the deferred tax expense as the adjustment needed to the existing SFP balance. (4) Make an adjusting entry to restate the deferred tax asset or liability amounts if a change in the future tax rates has been substantively enacted. (5) Classify the net deferred/future tax asset or liability according to the accounting standards being applied.

EXERCISES Ex 18-69 Taxable income vs. accounting income and taxes payable under IFRS and ASPE Explain the difference between accounting income and taxable income. How do these differences impact income under IFRS between what is and what is not allowable for income tax purposes? Are there any differences under ASPE? Solution18-69 Accounting income is calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Taxable income is calculated in accordance with prescribed tax legislation and regulations. Because tax legislation and GAAP have different objectives, accounting income and taxable income almost always differ. Corporations file income tax returns following the Income Tax Act (and related provincial legislation), which is administered by the CRA. IFRS differs in several ways from tax regulations and as a result, adjustments need to be made on the income reported on the financial statements when determining taxable income. Pre-tax income on the income statement and taxable income are generally different under IFRS and ASPE. However, under ASPE, companies have the option of using the taxes payable approach where income tax expense would typically equal income taxes payable.

Ex. 18-70 Permanent and reversible differences Explain whether each of the following independent situations should be treated as a reversible difference or a permanent difference. 1. For accounting purposes, Barley Corp. reports revenue from instalment sales on the accrual basis. For income tax purposes it reports the revenues by the instalment method, deferring recognition of gross profit until cash is collected. 2. Pre-tax accounting income and taxable income differ because dividends received from Canadian corporations were not included in Rye Corp.’s taxable income, while 100% of the dividends received were included as revenue for financial statement purposes. 3. Flax Corp.’s estimated warranty costs (covering a three-year period) are expensed for accounting purposes at the time of sale, but deducted for income tax purposes only when paid. 18-40 Copyright © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Canada, Ltd. Unauthorized copying, distribution, or transmission of this page is prohibited


Test Bank for Intermediate Accounting, Thirteenth Canadian Edition

Solution 18-70 1. Reversible difference. This difference in the timing of revenue recognition between pre-tax accounting income and taxable income will initially increase pre-tax accounting income, but will not increase taxable income by the amount of future gross profits until cash is collected in subsequent years. Assuming the estimate as to collectibility of instalment receivables is valid, the total amounts reported as gross profits for accounting purposes and for tax purposes will be equal over the life of a group of instalment receivables. The time lag between the accrual for accounting purposes and the recognition for tax purposes will increase the deferred tax liability as long as instalment sales are level or increasing. The deferred tax liability will be reduced as the receivables are collected. 2.

Permanent difference. This difference in pre-tax accounting income and taxable income will never reverse because present tax laws allow a corporation that owns shares in another Canadian corporation to exclude the dividends it receives from that corporation. Thus, there are no tax consequences for such dividends, even though they are recognized as income for accounting purposes. [Note from author: this is not exactly correct. It is true such dividends are not subject to Part I (“regular” income tax) but they may be subject to Part IV tax.]

3.

Reversible difference. The full estimated three years of warranty expense reduces the current year's pre-tax accounting income, but will reduce taxable income in varying amounts each year as the costs are paid. Assuming the warranty estimate is valid, the total amounts deducted for accounting and for tax purposes will be equal over the three-year period. This is an example of an expense that, in the first year, reduces pre-tax accounting income more than it does the taxable income and, in later years, reverses and reduces taxable income without affecting pre-tax accounting income.

liability to be recorded. Deductible temporary differences decrease taxable income in future years and cause a deferred tax asset to be recorded. Specifically, a taxable temporary difference is the difference between the carrying value of an asset or liability and its tax base. When the asset is recovered or the liability is settled in the future for an amount equal to the carrying value, taxable income of that future period will be increased. Because taxes arise in the future as a result of reversible differences existing at the SFP date, the future income tax consequences of these taxable amounts are recognized in the current period as a deferred tax liability. A deferred tax asset is the future income tax consequences attributable to deductible temporary differences and loss carryforwards. IFRS (IAS 12) permits a deferred tax asset to be recognized only to the extent that it is probable that it will be realized in the future. Note that IFRS does not use a valuation account, although ASPE does.

Ex. 18-79 Calculate change in tax rates, and disclosure Vansatia Construction Inc. uses the completed contract method for tax purposes and the percentage completion method for accounting purposes Assume that on July 15, 2023, a new income tax rate is enacted that lowers the corporate rate from 30% to 28%, effective January 1, 2025. Vansatia Construction Inc. has one temporary difference at the beginning of 2023 related to $1 million tax deferral from using the completed contract method. Vansatia therefore had a Deferred Tax Liability account at January 1, 2023 with a balance of $300,000 ($1,000,000 × 30%). The $1,000,000 in gross profit recognized to date is expected to be taxed in 2026.

Solution 18-85 Under IFRS (IAS 12): In terms of recognition, no choices are permitted, and all companies apply the temporary differences approach. A deferred tax asset account is permitted to the extent that it is probable that it will be realized in the future and a valuation account is not used. Under ASPE: A company may choose either the taxes payable method or the future income taxes method as its accounting policy. The future income taxes method is also known as the asset and liability approach and the temporary difference approach.

When a reporting entity simply discloses the amount of taxes payable in a fiscal year without any additional information about what occurred to arrive at that value, the reader is left unknowing with regards to what events occurred as it relates to taxable/deductible items, and whether there are any implications into the future. Taxes payable is a cash outflow, and sometimes a cash inflow. The deferred/future taxes method allows the reader to understand the current taxes payable as it relates to any tax expenses (or benefits) that are deferred into the future. The user is better able to understand the cash flow implication today with regards to taxes, and whether that also includes a deferred expense or benefit into the future that will also affect cash flows.

Under IFRS, the only difference is the deferred tax asset would be classified as a non-current asset on the 2023 SFP, and a valuation allowance is not used. Instead, the Deferred Tax Asset account would be $19,200.

e)

In order to meet the definition of an asset, the resource must have future economic benefit. If management believes that the probability of future income is low or nil, then the future benefit of the deferred tax asset is in question. It may be more appropriate to use a valuation allowance account, or to not record the asset in the statement of financial position at all.

CHAPTER 19 PENSIONS AND OTHER POST-EMPLOYMENT BENEFITS CHAPTER STUDY OBJECTIVES 1. Understand the importance of pensions from a business perspective. A pension plan, together with post-retirement health care, is often part of an employee’s overall compensation package. The size of these plans, in terms of both the number of employees and cost of benefits, has made their costs very large (on average) relative to companies’ financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. For many years, the vast majority of defined benefit plans were underfunded, and more and more companies have been moving toward defined contribution plans.

2. Identify and account for a defined contribution plan and distinguish between defined contribution and defined benefit plans. Defined contribution plans are plans that specify how contributions are determined rather than what benefits the individual will receive. They are accounted for in a manner similar to a cash basis. In contrast, defined benefit plans specify the benefits that the employee is entitled to receive. Defined benefit plans whose benefits vest or accumulate typically provide for the benefits to be a function of the employee’s years of service and, for pensions, compensation level. In general, the employer’s obligation for such a plan and the associated cost is accrued as an expense as the employee provides the service. An actuary usually determines the required amounts.

3. Explain what the employer’s benefit obligation is, identify alternative measures for this obligation, and prepare a continuity schedule of transactions and events that change its balance. The employer’s benefit obligation is the actuarial present value of the benefits that have been earned by employees for services they have provided up to the date of the statement of financial position. The vested benefit method, accumulated benefit method, and projected benefit method are three methods that could be used to measure companies’ obligations. The third method is the one used to determine the defined benefit obligation, basing the calculation of the deferred compensation amount on both vested and non-vested service using future salaries. This last method is used under both IFRS and ASPE. The defined benefit obligation (DBO) is increased by current service cost, net interest/finance cost, and plan amendments that usually increase employee entitlements for prior services, and by actuarial losses. It is reduced by payment of pension benefits and by actuarial gains.

4. Identify transactions and events that change benefit plan assets and a benefit plan surplus or deficit, and calculate the balance of the plan assets and the plan surplus or deficit. Plan assets are increased by company and employee contributions and the actual return that is earned on fund assets (including realized and unrealized gains and losses), and are reduced by pension benefits paid to retirees. A plan’s surplus or deficit is the difference between the defined benefit obligation and the 19-1 Copyright © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Canada, Ltd.

plan assets at a point in time. It tells you the extent to which a company has a net obligation (underfunded) or a surplus (overfunded) relative to the benefits that are promised. All items that change the plan assets and DBO, with the exception of the payments to retirees, change the surplus or deficit.

5. Identify the components of defined benefit cost, and account for a defined benefit pension plan under IFRS and ASPE. Defined benefit cost is a function of: (1) current service cost, (2) finance cost including the net interest/finance cost on the net defined benefit liability/asset and the remeasurement gain or loss on plan assets, (3) past service costs, and (4) net actuarial gains or losses. Under ASPE, all are immediately included in current expense in their entirety. Under IFRS, pension costs relating to current service, past service, and net interest on the net defined benefit obligation are included in defined benefit expense. Actuarial gains and losses, and any return on plan assets excluding amounts included in the net interest on the net defined benefit obligation (asset), are recognized in other comprehensive income.

6. Account for defined benefit plans with benefits that vest or accumulate other than pension plans. Under ASPE, any non-pension defined benefit plans with benefits that vest or accumulate are accounted for in the same way as defined benefit pension plans. Under IFRS, short-term employee benefits are generally recognized (without discounting) at the amount expected to be paid in exchange for the services provided. Other long-term benefits include items such as paid absences for long service, unrestricted sabbaticals, and long-term disability plans. IFRS requires that remeasurements of the net defined benefit liability (asset) related to these other long-term benefits be reflected in income (not OCI). For termination benefits, IFRS requires the cost of the benefits to be recognized at the earlier of when the company can no longer withdraw an offer of employment and when it recognizes the related restructuring costs.

7. Identify the types of information required to be presented and disclosed for defined benefit plans, prepare basic schedules, and be able to read and understand such disclosures. ASPE requires a description of the plans, major changes made in the plans, dates of the actuarial valuations, the fair value of the plan assets, the DBO, and the surplus or deficit and how this relates to the balance sheet account. ASPE also requires that, if not shown separately on the income statement, “remeasurements and other items” should be disclosed in the notes. IFRS requires substantial information, such as reconciliations of changes in the DBO and plan assets, details of amounts included in net income, underlying assumptions and sensitivity analysis, and other information related to determining cash flows.

8. Identify differences in accounting between IFRS and ASPE, and what changes are expected in the near future. IAS 19 is broader and covers more employee benefits than does CPA Canada Handbook, Part II, Section 3462. Under IFRS, most companies are expected to recognize the net defined benefit liability (or asset) on the statement of financial position with items such as current service cost, past service cost, and interest on the DBO and plan assets recognized in net income, and remeasurement

changes and actuarial gains and losses reported in other comprehensive income. ASPE is similar, except remeasurement changes and actuarial gains and losses are reported in net income.

9 Explain and apply basic calculations to determine current service cost, the defined benefit obligation, and past service cost for a one-person defined benefit pension plan. The current service cost is a calculation of the present value of the benefits earned by employees that is attributable to the current period. The defined benefit obligation is the present value of the accumulated benefits earned to a point in time, according to the pension formula and using projected salaries. Past service cost is the present value of the additional benefits granted to employees in the case of a plan amendment.

EXERCISES Ex. 19-84 Post-employment benefits There are a variety of post-employment benefits that are earned by employees and that are expected to be provided to them on a long-term basis. Instructions a) Identify and explain what types of benefits an employee may be entitled to. b) How are these benefits funded? c) CRITICAL THINKING: Given the potential cost and long-term obligation to an employer, why to companies provide these types of benefits to employees? Solution 19-84 a) Post-employment benefits include: • Post-retirement plans such as pensions and plans that provide health care or life insurance benefits after an employee’s retirement. A pension plan specifically is an arrangement in which an employer provides benefits (payments) to employees after they retire, for services that the employees provided while they were working. • Post-employment plans with benefits that are provided after employment but before retirement. These include long-term disability income benefits, long-term severance benefits, and continuation of benefits such as health care and life insurance. • Plans covering accumulating and vested compensated absences. This type of benefit includes payments made while an employee is absent from work. It also includes unrestricted sabbatical leaves and accumulated sick days that vest or are taken as paid vacation. b) Benefits may be funded through contributory plans, where the employees pay part of the cost of the stated benefits or voluntarily make payments to increase their benefits. In non-contributory plans, the employer bears the entire cost. c) CRITICAL THINKING: The job market for skilled and trained employees can be very competitive. If a company or organization is unable to compete to attract talent on salaries alone, benefits packages provide further incentive for employees to either initially accept a position or alternatively to stay in the position once they are already working for a firm.

Ex. 19-85 Defined benefit plans Pension plans can be broadly grouped into two categories: defined contribution plans and defined benefit plans. 19-45 Copyright © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Canada, Ltd. Unauthorized copying, distribution, or transmission of this page is prohibited


Test Bank for Intermediate Accounting, Thirteenth Canadian Edition

Instructions a) What is a defined benefit plan? Include an explanation of the following terms in your answer: service cost, interest cost, past service costs, and vested benefits. b) What type of obligations are created for companies with defined benefit plans? How is this reflected on the statement of financial position? Solution 19-85 a) The (current) service cost component of defined benefit expense as part of the defined benefit plans is the cost of the benefits to be provided in future in exchange for services provided in the current period. The interest cost component of defined benefit expense is the interest for the period of the defined (accrued) benefit obligation outstanding during the period. To simplify the calculation, the amount of interest is calculated by applying a single rate to the beginning balance of the obligation. When a defined benefit plan is initiated or amended, credit that is given to employees for services provided before the date of initiation or amendment results in past service costs. If there is a reduction in the benefit plan, there is a decrease in the defined (accrued) benefit obligation. The amount of the past service costs is calculated by an actuary, and is added/deducted to the beginning balance of the obligation for calculating the interest cost for the year. Vested benefits are those the employee is entitled to receive even if they provide no additional services under the plan, e.g., if their employment is terminated. Vesting means that an employee keeps the rights to the benefit even if the employee no longer works for the entity. Typically, defined benefits vest with the employee based on the employee’s length of service. Normally, the benefits will vest after an employee has worked a specified number of years and the amount of the benefit typically increases with the length of service. b) A liability is only reported on the employer’s SFP if the required contribution has not been made in full for a defined benefit plan. An asset is only reported if the employer has contributed more than the required amount to be contributed for a defined benefit plan. Difficulty: Medium Learning Objective: Explain what the employer’s benefit obligation is, identify alternative measures for this obligation, and prepare a continuity schedule of transactions and events that change its balance.

Insructions a) Explain how the actual returns on pension assets are generated. b) How are the expected returns on a pension plan asset determined? c) Can the pension plan assets generate gains or losses? If so, explain how. d) CRITICAL THINKING: What is the role of the actuary? Is this role crucial in a defined benefit versus a defined contribution plan? Why or why not? Solution 19-86 a) The actual return earned on plan assets is the income generated on the assets being held by the trustee, less the cost of administering the fund. This can vary considerably from year to year. b) The expected return on plan assets is the long-term rate of return (calculated by the actuary) multiplied by the fair value of the assets at the beginning of the period. A long-term rate is used to smooth out short-term fluctuations in interest rates, and is usually the rate for high-quality corporate bonds. The return on plan assets can be highly variable from one year to the next, so actuaries ignore short-term fluctuations when they develop a funding pattern to accumulate assets to pay benefits in the future. Under IFRS, the same rate is used for interest on the defined benefit obligation and the plan assets. c) An unexpected asset gain occurs when the actual return on plan assets is greater than the expected return on plan assets and an unexpected loss occurs when the actual return is less than the expected return. d) CRITICAL THINKING: An actuary’s chief purpose in pension accounting is to ensure that the company has established an appropriate funding pattern to meet its pension obligations. Actuaries make predictions called actuarial assumptions about mortality rates, employee turnover, interest and earnings rates, early retirement frequency, future salaries, and any other factors that need to be considered for pension plans. The role of the actuary is less crucial for a company with a defined contribution plan where the employee bears the risk of the plan’s performance.

CRITICAL THINKING: IFRS’ current rate can only be the current yield on high-quality debt instruments such as high-quality corporate bonds. The same discount rate is used for plan assets and the DBO. ASPE’s current rate can either be the current yield on debt instruments (such as high-quality corporate bonds) or a current settlement rate. The same discount rate is used for plan assets and the DBO.

Ex. 19-90 Different methods of measuring pension obligation Discuss the different methods of measuring the pension obligation and identify which method is used for IFRS and ASPE. Solution 19-90 Actuaries calculate the vested benefit obligation using vested benefits only, at current salary levels, under the vested benefit method. The accumulated benefit method is based on both the vested and non-vested benefits and calculated on all years of employees’ service using the current salary levels. The projected benefit method calculates the deferred compensation using both vested and nonvested service, and incorporates future salaries projected to be earned over the period to retirement.

Ex. 19-102 Accounting for defined benefit plans other than pension plans under ASPE and IFRS How are pension and non-pension defined benefits plans that vest or accumulate accounted for under ASPE and under IFRS? Solution 19-102 Under ASPE, only one approach is permitted; the immediate recognition approach with defined benefit expense being recorded via net income. Any non-pension defined benefit plans that vest or accumulate are accounted for in the same way as defined benefit pension plans. Under IFRS, only one approach is permitted; with current and past service cost, and the net interest on the net employee benefit liability or asset being recorded in net income (and with gains and losses from remeasurements being recorded in OCI). The short-term employee benefits are generally recognized (without discounting) at the amount expected to be paid in exchange for the services provided. Other long-term benefits require the same recognition and measurement as for pension plans except all changes in liabilities relating to these benefits should be reflected in income, including remeasurement. IFRS requires the cost of the benefits to be recognized at the earlier of when the company can no longer withdraw an offer of employment and when it recognizes the related restructuring costs.

If the major assumptions change, this can significantly change the amounts within the defined benefit obligation and the defined benefit expense.

discount rate could have a 10% to 20% effect on the discounted value. The rate used is disclosed so users can assess for reasonableness and compare to rates used by other companies.

How the defined benefit plans help them assess the amounts, timing, and likelihood of the cash flows that are associated with future benefits (IFRS 19.125).

*Ex. 19-105 Calculate current service costs Joe Smith, age 45, begins employment with Square Corporation on January 1, 2023, at a starting salary of $45,000. It is expected that Joe will work for the company for 20 years, retiring on December 31, 2042, when Joe is 65 years old. It is expected that his salary at retirement will be $120,000. Further assume that mortality tables indicate the life expectancy of someone age 65 in 2042 is 12 years. Square Corporation sponsors a defined benefit pension plan with the following formula Annual pension benefit on retirement = 2% of salary at retirement for each year of service, or 2% final salary x years of service. Assume a discount rate of 6%. Instructions a) Determine the current service cost for Joe Smith at December 31, 2023. b) CRITICAL THINKING: The CFO is reviewing your calculations and thinks there must be an error. He believes that this value is too low given Joe’s salary of $45,000. Explain how the current service cost is calculated. Briefly explain how this is similar to the calculations for the defined pension obligation and past service costs. *Solution 19-105 a) Annual pension benefit on retirement = 2% x $120,000 x 1 year = $2,400 per year on retirement PV of $2,400 annuity (n=12, i=6) at December 31, 2042 = $2,400 x 8.38384 = $20,121.22 (Table A.4) PV of amount of $20,121.22 (n=19, i=6%) at December 31, 2023

= $20,121,22 x 0.33051 = $6,650.26 (Table A.2)

The current service cost for Joe Smith is $6,650.26. b) CRITICAL THINKING: The current service cost is a calculation of the present value of the benefits earned by employees that is attributable to the current period. The use of a discount rate is also applied to the calculation of the defined benefit obligation and past service costs. The defined benefit obligation is the present value of the accumulated benefits earned to a point in time, according to the 19-61 Copyright © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Canada, Ltd.

Further assume that mortality tables indicate the life expectancy of someone age 65 in 2032 is 12 years. Young Corporation sponsors a defined benefit pension plan with the following formula Annual pension benefit on retirement = 2% of salary at retirement for each year of service, or 2% final salary x years of service. Assume a discount rate of 5%. Instructions Determine the current service cost for Suzanne Hannah at December 31, 2023. *Solution 19-106 Annual pension benefit on retirement = 2% x $140,000 x 1 year = $2,800 per year of retirement PV of $2,400 annuity (n=12, i=5) at December 31, 2032

= $ 2800 x 8.86325 = $24,817 (Table A.4)

PV of amount of $24,817 (n=9, i=5%) at December 31, 2023 = $24,817 x 0.64461 = $15,997.29 (Table A.2) The current service cost for Suzanne Hannah is $15,997.29.

CHAPTER 20 LEASES CHAPTER STUDY OBJECTIVES 1. Understand the importance of leases from a business perspective. Leases represent a significant source of financing for companies. One of the issues identified by the IASB, prior to the adoption of IFRS 16, was a lack of transparency in financial reporting of leases, leaving users like financial analysts having to guess the extent of debt and leverage of many companies. Accounting for leases is not just an accounting issue, but one of importance to users of financial statements, including financial institutions and leasing companies.

2. Explain the conceptual nature, economic substance, and advantages of lease transactions. A lease is a contract between two parties that gives the lessee the right to use property that is owned by the lessor. In situations where the lessee obtains the use of the majority of the economic benefits inherent in a leased asset, the transaction is similar in substance to acquiring an asset. Therefore, the lessee recognizes the asset and associated liability and the lessor transfers the asset under lease accounting. The major advantages of leasing for the lessee relate to the cost and flexibility of the financing, and protection against obsolescence. For the lessor, the finance income is attractive.

3. Calculate the lease payment that is required for a lessor to earn a specific return. The lessor determines the investment that it wants to recover from a leased asset. If the lessor has acquired an asset for the purpose of leasing it, the lessor usually wants to recover the asset’s cost. If the lessor participates in leases as a way of selling its product, it usually wants to recover the sales price. The lessor’s investment in the cost or selling price can be recovered in part through a residual value if the asset will be returned to the lessor, or through a bargain purchase price that it expects the lessee to pay, if a bargain purchase is part of the lease agreement. In addition to these sources, the lessor recovers its investment through the lease payments. The periodic lease payment, therefore, is the annuity amount whose present value exactly equals the amount to be recovered through lease payments.

4. Identify and apply the factors that are used to determine if a contract is or contains a lease under IFRS and whether leases are capital or operating leases under the ASPE classification approach. Under IFRS, from the lessee’s standpoint, all leases are capitalized and included on the SFP except where the lessee elects not to apply the requirements for short-term leases or for leases where the underlying asset is of low value. Under ASPE a lease is classified as a capital or finance lease where the risks and benefits of owning the leased asset are transferred to the lessee, which is evidenced by one or more of the following: (1) the transfer of title or bargain purchase option (BPO), (2) the use of the majority of the asset services inherent in the leased asset, or (3) the recovery by the lessor of substantially all of its investment in the leased asset plus a return on that investment. If none of these criteria is met, the lease is classified as an operating lease. 20-1 Copyright © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Canada, Ltd.

5. Account for right-of-use assets by lessees under IFRS and capital leases under ASPE. IFRS 16 typically results in a right-of-use asset being capitalized on the lessee’s SFP and a lease liability being recognized for the obligation owing to the lessor. The amount capitalized is (a) the PV of the lease payments included in the lease liability (b) lease payments at the commencement date (c) initial direct costs of the lessee and (d) the costs of dismantling/restoring the underlying asset. The right-ofuse asset is then depreciated in the same way as other capital assets owned by the lessee. Payments to the lessor are divided into an interest portion and a principal payment, using the effective interest method.

6. Determine the effect of, and account for, residual values and purchase options for a lessee’s right-of-use asset (IFRS) or a capital lease (ASPE). When a lessee guarantees a residual value, it is obligated to return either the leased asset or cash, or a combination of both, in an amount that is equal to the guaranteed value. The lessee includes the guaranteed residual (or amounts expected to be payable by the lessee under a residual value guarantee for IFRS) in the lease obligation/lease liability and leased asset/right-of-use asset calculation. The asset is depreciated to the guaranteed residual (or purchase option) value by the end of the lease term. If the residual value is unguaranteed (no amount is expected to be payable), the lessee takes no responsibility for the residual and it is excluded from the lessee’s calculations.

7. Account for operating leases by lessees under ASPE (and short-term leases and low-value leases under IFRS 16) and compare the operating and capitalization methods of accounting by lessees. A lessee recognizes the lease payments that are made as rent expense in the period that is covered by the lease, usually based on the proportion of time. Over the term of a lease, the total amount that is charged to expense is the same whether the lease has been treated as a direct financing lease or as an operating lease under ASPE. Differences relates to (1) the timing of recognition for the expense (more is charged in the early years for a direct financing lease), (2) the type of expense that is charged (depreciation and interest expense for a financing lease versus rent expense for an operating lease), and (3) the recognition of an asset and liability on the SFP for a financing lease versus non-recognition for an operating lease. Aside from any income tax differences, the cash flows for a lease are the same whether it is classified as an operating or financing lease. Accounting for short-term leases and exempt leases for low-value assets under IFRS 16 is similar to accounting for operating leases under ASPE, except that rental expenses would be considered short-term lease expense or low-value lease expense, respectively

8. Determine the statement of financial position presentation of right-of-use assets (and ASPE capital leases) and identify other disclosures required. The current portion of the obligation is the principal that will be repaid within 12 months from the SFP date. The current portion also includes the amount of interest that has accrued up to the SFP date. The long-term portion of the obligation or net investment is the principal balance that will not be paid within 12 months of the SFP date. Lessees disclose the same information as is required for capital assets and long-term debt in general. In addition, details are required of the future minimum lease payments for each of the next five years, and under IFRS, information about leasing arrangements is required. 20-2 Copyright © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Canada, Ltd.

9. Identify and apply the criteria that are used to determine the type of lease for a lessor under the classification approach. If a lease, in substance, transfers the risks and benefits of ownership of the leased asset to the lessee and revenue recognition criteria related to collectability and ability to estimate any remaining non-reimbursable costs are met, the lessor accounts for the lease as either a direct financing or a sales-type lease. Under IFRS, it is classified as either a financing or a manufacturer or dealer lease. The existence of a manufacturer’s or dealer’s profit on the amount to be recovered from the lessee is the difference between a manufacturer/dealer or sales-type lease and a direct financing lease, because the objective is only to generate finance income in the latter. If any one of the capitalization or revenue recognition criteria is not met, the lessor accounts for the lease as an operating lease

10. Account for and report basic financing and manufacturer/dealer or sales-type leases by a lessor. In a finance lease, the lessor removes the cost of the leased asset from its books and replaces it with its net investment in the lease. This is made up of two accounts: (1) the gross investment or lease receivable, offset by (2) the portion of these amounts that represents unearned interest. The net investment represents the PV of the lease payments and the residual value or BPO amounts. As the lease payments are received, the receivable is reduced. As time passes, the unearned interest is taken into income based on the implicit rate of return that applies to the net investment. Under a manufacturer/dealer or sales-type lease, the accounting is similar except that the net investment represents the sales amount being recovered by the lessor. The lessor also transfers the inventory “sold” to cost of goods sold

11. Account for and report financing and manufacturer/dealer or sales-type leases, with guaranteed residual values or a purchase option, by a lessor. For each type of finance or capital lease accounted for by lessors, the net investment in the lease includes the estimated residual value whether it is guaranteed or not, or the BPO amount. Under a manufacturer/dealer or sales-type lease, both the sale and cost of goods sold amounts are reduced by any unguaranteed residual values

12. Account for and report operating leases by a lessor. The lessor records the lease payments received from the lessee as rental income in the period covered by the lease payment. Because the leased asset remains on the lessor’s books, the lessor records depreciation expense. Separate disclosure is required of the cost and accumulated amortization of property held for leasing purposes, and the amount of rental income earned.

13. Identify differences in accounting between IFRS and ASPE, and what changes are expected in the near future. Under the classification approach, ASPE and IFRS 16 have substantially the same requirements for lessors. Different terminology is used and the classification requirements that differentiate between a capital/finance lease and an operating lease under IFRS are based more on principles and judgement than ASPE. Under IFRS 16 a contract-based or right-of-use approach is used by the lessee

14. Describe and apply the lessee’s accounting for sale-leaseback transactions and the accounting treatment for leases that involve real estate. A sale and leaseback is accounted for by the lessee as if the two transactions were related. If the transfer of the asset does not meet the criteria to be classified as a sale under IFRS 15, then no sale is recognized by the seller-lessee and no purchase is recognized by the buyer-lessor. On the other hand, when a seller-lessee leases back only a portion of the asset sold, then the right-of-use asset arising from the leaseback transaction would be measured at the proportion of the previous carrying amount of asset retained by the seller-lessee. For an operating lease under ASPE, the seller-lessee takes the deferred gain or loss into income in proportion to the rental payments made. For a lease meeting the capital lease criteria under ASPE, any profit or loss is deferred and amortized on the same basis as the depreciation of the leased asset. Because the capitalization of land by the lessee in a capital or finance lease that does not transfer title results in an unwanted and unintended effect on the lessee’s financial statements, the portion of such leases that relates to land is accounted for as an operating lease. If the relative value of the land is minor, however, the minimum lease payments are fully capitalized as a building.

EXERCISES Ex. 20-92 Types of lessors Explain the difference between a manufacturer finance company and an independent finance company. Solution 20-92 A manufacturer finance company, also called a captive leasing company, is a subsidiary whose main business is to provide leasing services for a parent company. Examples are General Motors Acceptance Company of Canada (GMAC), which provides lease financing for General Motors dealers, and Chrysler Finance Service Canada, which provides lease financing for Chrysler dealers. An independent finance company, on the other hand, acts as financial intermediary by providing lease financing for a wide range of manufacturers, distributors and other dealers. The dealer will sell the customer the product(s) and then outsource the financing to an independent finance company. This is commonly seen in the construction industry.

Solution 20-94 a) The initial direct costs are generally defined as costs incurred by a lessor that are directly associated with negotiating and arranging a specific lease. These costs are included in the amount invested in the lease to be recovered by the lessor. Examples of such costs are commissions, legal fees, and costs of preparing and processing lease documents. b) The lessor determines the rental amount to charge a lessee based on the rate of return—the implicit rate—that the lessor needs to receive in order to justify leasing the asset.

Normally, an initial down payment on the car and the first month’s rental payment is required in advance. Customers may also be charged an administration fee for acquiring the vehicle and processing the paperwork.

3. 4.

At January 1, 2023, the fair value of each trailer is $50,000. The cost of each trailer to Albert Corp. is $45,000. Each trailer has an expected useful life of nine years. Collectability of the lease payments is reasonably assured, and any non-reimbursable costs under the lease that are likely to be incurred by Albert can be reasonably estimated.

Instructions a) Identify and explain what type of lease this is for the lessor. b) Calculate the annual lease payment. Present value factor for 6 periods at 8% is 4.62288. Round to the nearest dollar. c) Prepare a lease amortization schedule for Albert Corp. for the first three years. d) Prepare the journal entries for the lessor for 2023 and 2024 to record the lease agreement, the receipt of the lease rentals, and the recognition of income. Assume the use of a perpetual inventory system and round all amounts to the nearest dollar. Solution 20-96 a) This is a sales-type lease to the lessor, Albert Corp. Albert's gross profit on this sale is $50,000, which is recognized in the year of sale (2023). It is not an operating lease because title to the assets passes to the lessee, the present value ($500,000) of the minimum lease payments equals or exceeds 90% ($450,000) of the fair value of the leased trailers, collectability is reasonably assured, and any reimbursable costs under the lease that are likely to be incurred can be reasonably estimated. b)

What criteria must be used to classify a lease as a direct financing of sales type lease? Solution 20-97 a) Under IFRS 16 companies must assess whether each contract they enter into is (or contains) a lease. “A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration” (IFRS 16.9). While the goal was initially to recognize assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations of all leases, exceptions are recognized in IFRS 16 for short-term leases of 12 months or less, and for leases where the underlying asset is of low-value. b) In order for a lessor to classify a lease as a direct financing or a sales-type lease under ASPE, the lease at the date of inception must satisfy one or more of the following Group I criteria (a, b, and c) and both of the following Group II criteria (a and b): Group I a) There is reasonable assurance that the lessee will obtain ownership of the property at the end of the lease term. b) The lease term is equal to 75% or more of the estimated economic life of the leased property. c) The present value of the minimum lease payments (excluding executory costs) equals or exceeds 90% of the fair value of the leased property. Group II a) Collectability of the payments required from the lessee is reasonably assured. b) Any non-reimbursable costs under the lease that are likely to be incurred by the lessor can be reasonably estimated. 20-56 Copyright © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Canada, Ltd.

a) b)

If the equipment’s estimated fair market value is $40,000 at the end of the 30 months, is this considered a bargain purchase option? Explain why or why not.

Solution 20-98 a) Star Co. can purchase the equipment at the end of the lease for $10,000 when the estimated fair market value is $40,000. The fair market value would be considered significantly higher than the purchase price option and it can be assumed that the option is a bargain and will be acted on. b) A bargain purchase option is a provision that allows the lessee to purchase the leased asset for a price that is significantly lower than the asset’s expected fair value when the lessee can exercise this option.

cause the present value of the minimum lease payments to be less than 90% of the property’s fair value, making it an operating versus capital lease. Under IFRS, the interest rate implicit in the lease is to be used whenever reasonably determinable; otherwise, the incremental borrowing rate is used for present value calculations.

Ex. 20-100 Classification approach vs. contract-based approach Explain the difference between classification approach vs contract-based approach for capitalizing leases. Solution 20-100 The classification approach says that transactions should be classified and accounted for according to its economic substance. This would justify capitalizing leases that have similar characteristics to instalment purchases. On the other hand, the contract-based approach (also called a right-of-use approach) views the lease as conveying a contractual right to use the property (not the physical property itself). This approach would justify capitalizing the fair value of the rights and obligations of just about all leases, even those currently accounted for as operating leases. Exceptions would be leases that actually transfer control of the asset or almost all of the risks and benefits associated with ownership, such as leases where title will transfer at the end of the contract, or where there is a bargain purchase option.

under residual value guarantees) and an unguaranteed residual value and the economic and accounting consequences of using a guaranteed residual value in a lease arrangement. Solution 20-101 The guaranteed residual value from the lessee’s perspective is the maximum amount the lessor can require the lessee to pay at the end of the lease. The unguaranteed residual value is the portion of the residual value that is not guaranteed by the lessee or is guaranteed solely by a party that is related to the lessor. Often, no part of the residual is guaranteed. The guaranteed residual value is used in lease arrangements for good reason: it protects the lessor against any loss in estimated residual value, and so ensures that the lessor will get its desired rate of return on its investment. If the residual value is guaranteed by the lessee, there are both economic and accounting consequences. The accounting difference is that the lease payments that are capitalized as the leased asset are defined to include the guaranteed residual value. Unguaranteed residual values are excluded from the lease payments (or the ASPE “minimum lease payments”). If the residual value is not guaranteed by the lessee, the lessee has no responsibility or obligation for the asset’s condition at the end of the lease. The unguaranteed residual value, therefore, is not included in the calculation of the lease obligation by the lessee.

c) CRITICAL THINKING: When the capital lease method is used, the lessee treats the lease transactions as if the asset were being purchased. The asset and obligation are recorded at the lower of (1) the present value of the minimum lease payments (excluding executory costs) or (2) the fair value of the asset at the inception of the lease. Under ASPE, the present value of the lease payments is calculated using the lessee's incremental borrowing rate, unless the implicit rate used by the lessor is lower and the lessee has knowledge of it. Under IFRS, the present value is calculated using the interest rate implicit in the lease whenever this is reasonably determinable, otherwise by using the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate. The effective interest method is used to allocate each lease payment between interest expense and a reduction of the lease obligation. If the lease transfers ownership or contains a bargain purchase option, the asset is depreciated in a manner consistent with the lessee's normal depreciation policy over the economic life of the asset and allowing for residual value. If the lease does not transfer ownership, the leased asset is depreciated over the lease term.

a) b)

What are the differences between capital and operating leases under ASPE? What argument do managers present to support an operating versus a capital lease?

Solution 20-104 a) In theory, the total charges to operations are the same over the lease term whether a lease is accounted for as a capital lease or as an operating lease, but the timing of recognition is different. A capital lease has higher charges in the earlier years and lower charges in later years, versus an even and consistent charge under operating leases. The most important and significant difference; however, is the effect on the balance sheet. A capital lease reports an asset and a liability related to the lease; whereas, an operating lease does not. Capitalizing leases results in higher debt to equity ratios, reduced total asset turnover, and a reduced rate of return on total assets. b) When arguing against capitalization, managers often state that capitalization can:

More easily lead to violation of loan covenants Affect the amount of compensation that is received (for example, a stock compensation plan is tied to earnings); and Lower rates of return and increase debt to equity relationships, thus making the company less attractive to present and potential investors.

Ex. 20-105 Operating lease calculations On January 1, 2023, Lewis Corp. purchased a building for $900,000, with the intention of leasing it. The building is expected to have a 20-year life, no residual value, and will be depreciated on a straight-line basis. On April 1, 2023, under a cancellable lease, Lewis leased the building to Clark Company for $300,000 a year ($25,000 a month) for a four-year period ending March 31, 2027. Clark paid $300,000 to Lewis on April 1, 2023. During calendar 2023, Lewis incurred $30,000 in maintenance and other executory costs under the provisions of the lease. This lease is properly classified as an operating lease by both parties. Instructions a) How much income before income taxes will Lewis report from this lease for calendar 2023? b) How much rent expense will Clark report in connection with this lease for calendar 2023? c) What disclosures are required under IFRS 16 for leases that are exempt from right-of-use lease accounting?

Ex. 20-107 Risks and benefits of ownership Under ASPE, a lease is classified as a capital lease if it substantially transfers the risks and rewards of ownership from the lessor to the lessee and classified as an operating lease if the risks and rewards are not substantially transferred. Given this, explain the risks and rewards of ownership. Solution 20-107 Rewards of ownership are the ability to use the asset to generate profits over its useful life, benefit from any appreciation in the asset’s value, and realize its residual value at the end of its economic life. The risks, on the other hand, are the exposure to uncertain returns, loss from use or idle capacity, and technological obsolescence.

being that the lessor typically has manufactured or acquired the asset in order to sell it and is looking to make a profit on the sale as well as earn interest. So, the cost or carrying value of the amount on the lessor’s books is usually less than the asset’s fair value to the customer, so the lessor will also record a sale and related cost of goods sold in addition to the lease accounting entries. The lessor records the gross amounts of the minimum lease payments (excluding executory costs) and the unguaranteed residual value (a guaranteed residual value is included in the minimum lease payments) as Lease Receivable. The difference between the gross investment in lease (Lease Receivable) and the asset's sale price, also called the net investment in lease, is recorded as Unearned Interest Income. This is a contra-account to Lease Receivable. The sales price of the asset is recorded as sales revenue. The lessor also records the cost of goods sold and inventory amount at the asset’s carrying value or cost. The lessor records payments received as a reduction in the receivable. Unearned income is recognized periodically as interest income, using the effective interest method and the implicit interest rate used to calculate the lease payments.

b) If a lease is classified as operating by the lessor, the lease payments are recognized as rental income and the asset will stay on the books of the lessor. The rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over each accounting period unless there is a pattern that is a better reflection of how the asset provides benefits. Depreciation, maintenance and other operating costs are expensed in the period they incur. Initial direct costs are deferred and amortized over the lease terms in proportion to the rental income recognized. ASPE disclosure requirements for operating leases are limited to the cost and related accumulated depreciation of property that is held for leasing purposes, along with the carrying amount of any impaired lease receivables and related allowance provided for impairment.

Ex. 20-112 Differences between ASPE and IFRS 16 Explain how leases are recognized by the lessees and lessors under both IFRS versus ASPE. Solution 20-112 Lessees: ASPE requires leases to be classified as capital when the risks and benefits of ownership are transferred to the lessee. The classification criteria include numerical thresholds that are often used. Whereas, under IFRS the lessee recognizes its contractual right to use the leased asset as a right-ofuse asset, and its obligation to make rental payments as a lease liability. There are exemptions to this for short-term leases and low-value assets. Lessors: ASPE uses classification criteria including numerical thresholds plus two revenue recognition criteria to qualify as a sale-type lease or a direct financing lease. Whereas for IFRS 16 uses the same criteria as the lessee does and then classifies it as a finance lease or a manufacturer/dealer lease depending on the structure.

Under IFRS, this office equipment lease agreement would qualify as a small amount as its 12 months or less and is of low value. Any agreement that does not fall within these characteristics would not meet the exemption and would be automatically capitalized. One reason that this difference exists is the cost/benefit trade off with respect to relevance and decision usefulness of information. Leases that are small amounts, and for a short term would likely not affect a user’s final decision about the organization. However, there would still be disclosures in the notes about these leases should the user want this type of additional detail.

Pr. 20-120 Manufacturer/Dealer or sales-type lease versus financing-type lease How do you distinguish between a manufacturer/dealer or sales-type lease and a financing-type lease? Solution 20-120 Distinguishing between a manufacturer/dealer or sales-type lease and a financing-type lease depends on the specific situation. Some manufacturers enter into lease agreements either directly or through a subsidiary captive leasing company to facilitate the sale of their product. These transactions are usually manufacturer/dealer or sales-type lease arrangements. Other companies are in business to provide financing to the lessee to acquire a variety of assets in order to generate financing income. They usually enter into direct financing (ASPE) or finance leases (IFRS). The difference between these classifications is the presence or absence of a manufacturer’s or dealer’s profit (or loss). A sales-type lease (a manufacturer or dealer lease) includes in the rental amount the recovery of a manufacturer’s or dealer’s profit as well as the asset’s cost. The profit (or loss) to the lessor is the difference between the fair value of the leased property at the beginning of the lease, and the lessor’s cost or carrying amount (book value). Manufacturer/dealer or sales-type leases normally arise when manufacturers or dealers use leasing as a way of marketing their products. Direct financing leases (or finance leases), on the other hand, generally result from arrangements with lessors that are engaged mostly in financing operations, such as lease- finance companies and a variety of financial intermediaries, such as banks or their finance subsidiaries. These lessors acquire the specific assets that lessees have asked them to acquire. Their business model is to earn interest income on the financing arrangement with the lessee.

*Pr. 20-122 Sale and Leaseback Simian Valley Corp. owns both the land and building that it uses for a banana plantation. The original cost of the building was $412,500 and had a book value of $225,000 at January 1, 2023. On this date the building was sold to Bonobo Leasing Inc. for $250,000 and simultaneously leased back to Simian Valley. The lease had a guaranteed 10-year term and required annual payments of $47,250 on December 31 each year. The lease allows the property to revert to the lessee at the end of the lease. Simian Valley’s incremental borrowing rate is 12%, but they do not know Bonobo’s implicit rate. Bonobo will pay property taxes on the building of $6,000 per year; however, this cost is included in the lease payment. Simian Valley will pay maintenance and other operating costs. The building will be depreciated straight line over its remaining 10-year life. The lease qualifies as a capital (finance) lease since the lease term is equal to the economic life of the building. Simian Valley Corp. follows ASPE.

CHAPTER 21 ACCOUNTING CHANGES AND ERROR ANALYSIS CHAPTER STUDY OBJECTIVES 1. Identify and differentiate among the types of accounting changes and explain how to account for them. There are three types of accounting changes. (1) Change in accounting policy: a change in the specific principles, bases, rules, or practices that an entity applies in the preparation of its financial statements. (2) Change in an accounting estimate: a change in the carrying amount of an asset or liability or the amount of an asset’s periodic consumption from reassessing the current status of the asset or liability or the expected future benefits or obligations associated with it. (3) Correction of a prior period error: a change caused by an omission from or misstatement in prior years’ financial statements from the misuse of or failure to use reliable information that existed at the time the statements were completed and that could have been used in their preparation and presentation. Accounting changes could be accounted for retrospectively, currently, or prospectively. The retrospective method requires restatement of prior periods as if the accounting change had been used from the beginning, or the error had never been made. The current method calculates a catch-up adjustment related to the effect on all prior years, and reports it in the current period. Prospective treatment requires making no adjustment for past effects, but instead, beginning to use the new method in the current and future periods. A change in accounting policy due to the initial application of a new primary source of GAAP is accounted for according to the transitional provisions of that standard. If none is provided, or if it is a voluntary change, retrospective application is used. A change in an accounting estimate is accounted for prospectively. Errors are corrected through full retrospective restatement. Comparative periods are presented as if the new accounting policy had always been applied. The opening balance of each affected component of equity is adjusted for the earliest prior period presented, and all other affected comparative amounts for each prior period provided are restated. When the effects on particular prior periods are impracticable to determine, the cumulative effect of the change is shown as an adjustment to the beginning retained earnings of the earliest prior period possible. Required disclosures therefore include identifying the nature of the change, the effect on each financial statement item affected, the amounts relating to periods prior to those that are presented, and why full retrospective application was not applied, if applicable. If the change resulted from applying transitional provisions, information about the standards and the provisions is provided, including, if under IFRS, the effects on future periods. If it is a voluntary change, excluding specific ASPE accounting changes, the reasons why the new policy results in more relevant information are disclosed. Information about the future effect of changes in primary sources of GAAP that are issued but not yet effective is also required under IFRS. An opening SFP is required under IFRS for the earliest comparative period presented. Comparative amounts for prior periods affected by errors are restated, unless under IFRS it is not practicable to identify the effect on specific past periods. If the error is in a period before the earliest comparative statements included, the opening balances of the earliest comparative period are restated. An opening SFP is required under IFRS for the earliest comparative period presented as is information about the nature of any impracticality. The nature of the error and the amount of the 21-1 Copyright © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Canada, Ltd. Unauthorized copying, distribution, or transmission of this page is prohibited

adjustment to each comparative financial statement line item and to EPS are all required disclosures. Under prospective treatment of accounting for changes in estimates, only the current and future fiscal periods are affected. There is no adjustment of current-year opening balances and no attempt is made to “catch up” for prior periods. The nature and amount of a change in an accounting estimate that affects the current period or, under IFRS, is expected to affect future periods, is required to be disclosed.

2. Identify economic motives for changing accounting methods and interpret financial statements where there have been retrospective changes to previously reported results. Some of the aspects that affect decisions about the choice of accounting methods are (1) political costs, (2) the capital structure, (3) bonus payments, and (4) the desire to smooth earnings. Financial statement users should analyze the information presented about accounting changes and adjust any trend information affected.

3. Identify differences in accounting between IFRS and APSE. The accounting standards under ASPE are very similar to those under IFRS. Minor differences exist, such as IAS 8’s permitting partial retrospective treatment for the correction of an accounting error, ASPE allowing specific voluntary changes without justification on a “reliable and more relevant” basis, and IFRS requiring additional disclosures.

4. Correct the effects of errors and prepare restated financial statements. Three types of errors can occur: (1) errors that affect only the SFP, (2) errors that affect only the income statement, and (3) errors that affect both the SFP and the income statement. This last type of error is classified either as (a) a counterbalancing error, where the effects are offset or corrected over two periods; or (b) a noncounterbalancing error, where the effects take longer than two periods to correct themselves.

EXERCISES Ex. 21-52 Conditions and disclosures for a change in accounting policy under IFRS and ASPE Able Enterprises is a large consumable distributor. The company has been using the weighted average method for its inventory valuation but would like to move to using FIFO. The company is publicly traded. Instructions a) Under what conditions would it be acceptable for Able to move from using the weighted average method to FIFO? Under what situations can a company reporting under IFRS make changes to its accounting policy? b) Would your answer in part a change if the company adhered to ASPE rather than IFRS? Explain under what situations a change policy could be made under ASPE. c) Critical Thinking: As the CFO you have informed your accounting team that if management makes the change to FIFO that they will be possible for ensuring that the correct disclosures are made. A new junior accountant is confused by this. Explain the main objectives of accounting and disclosure standards for accounting changes. Solution 21-52 a) Under IFRS, there are only two situations where a change in accounting policy is acceptable: 1. The change is required by a primary source of GAAP. 2. A voluntary change results in the information in the financial statements being as reliable and more relevant. b) Voluntary changes are allowed under ASPE without having to meet the “reliable and more relevant” criterion. These include accounting and reporting 1. for investments in subsidiary companies, and in companies where the investor has significant influence or joint control. 2. for expenditures during the development phase on internally generated intangible assets. 3. for defined benefit plans. 4. for accounting for income taxes. 5. for measuring the equity component of a compound financial instrument. c) CRITICAL THINKING: The three main objectives of accounting and disclosure standards for accounting changes include: 1. Limiting the types of changes permitted. 2. Standardizing the reporting for each type of change. 3. Ensuring that readers of accounting reports have the necessary information to understand the effects of such changes on the financial statements.

In 2023, Sora introduced a new pension plan for its employees, which included past service costs of $50,000. It decided to recognize the $50,000 as part of its 2023 pension expense. During 2023, a long-term bond with a carrying value of $3,600,000 was retired at a cost of $4,100,000. After negotiations with Canada Revenue Agency, income taxes owing for 2022 were established at $42,900. They were originally estimated to be $28,600. In 2023, the company incurred interest expense of $29,000 on a 20-year bond issue. In calculating the depreciation in 2021 for buildings, an error was made which overstated income in that year by $75,000. The error was discovered in 2023. In 2023, the company changed its method of depreciating plant assets from the double declining-balance method to the straight-line method.

The bank will then conduct a financial analysis of the statements to assess overall company stability and ensure that ZIP is in compliance with the covenants. The bank notices that there appears to significant changes to Zip’s accounting policies and disclosures. The bank contacts Zip’s CFO asking for a detailed explanation of these changes. Instructions a) Provide the bank with a detailed report and examples of each of the following: 1. Change in estimate 2. Voluntary change in accounting policy 3. Correction of an error Make sure to address any differences in reporting under IFRS versus ASPE in your explanation. b) CRITICAL THINKING: Why do you think the banker ask for a detailed explanation of the changes? What challenges is the banker experiencing in conducting the annual review? Solution 21-55 a) 1. Changes in Estimate Accounting estimates will change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired, or new information is obtained. Changes in estimates are handled prospectively; that is in current and future periods. No restatement of previous financial statements is made. Financial statement disclosure includes the nature and amount of the change for the current period under ASPE and future periods under IFRS unless it is impracticable to estimate its affect. Immaterial changes in estimates do not need to be disclosed. Examples include: - collectability of receivables - change in depreciation methods - estimated lives or residual values - warranty costs 2. Voluntary Changes in Accounting Policy The financial statements need to be adjusted to reflect the change in all of the prior years presented, the current year, and the cumulative effect of the change on prior periods, net of tax, should be shown as an adjustment to beginning retained earnings in the current year. Disclosure should include the amount of the adjustment for the current period and each prior period presented, including the effect on each financial statement line item and the per share amounts, the amount of the adjustment related to periods prior to those presented, either that the change has been applied retrospectively, or without restatement and an explanation why this was impractical, and justification of the change. Examples include: - change in the basis of inventory pricing - change in the method of accounting for construction contracts - change in the method of accounting for instalment sales - change in the method of accounting for defined pension plans 3.

Correction of an Error 21-33 Copyright © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Canada, Ltd. Unauthorized copying, distribution, or transmission of this page is prohibited


Test Bank for Intermediate Accounting, Thirteenth Canadian Edition

Corrections of errors are recorded in the year discovered, are corrected retrospectively with restatement of all prior years presented, and the beginning balance of retained earnings is adjusted. The nature of the error, the amount of the correction for each prior period presented, and the amount related to periods prior to those presented, and that the comparative information has been restated, must all be disclosed. Examples include: - a change from an accounting policy that is not generally accepted to an accounting policy that is accepted - mathematical mistakes - changes in estimates that occur because the estimates are not made in good faith - an oversight - a misuse of facts - misclassification of an asset as an expense or vice versa b) CRITICAL THINKING: Accounting changes often make it difficult to develop meaningful trend data, which would undermine one of the major reasons why the accounting information was useful in the past. Financial statement readers should look closely at all accounting changes and adjust any trend data appropriately. Although most adjustments result in no change in the company’s cash position, some adjustments can end up converting previously reported operating cash flows to investing or financing flows. Most changes tend to shift earnings from one accounting period to another. The disclosures required by the accounting standards are the best source of input for the analysis.

Note: The error in depreciation expense has no effect on 2023 income. The error in prepaid insurance is related to the error in insurance expense. b) CRITICAL THINKING: The general requirement for changes in accounting policy and the required method for error correction is that the change’s cumulative effect be shown as an adjustment to the beginning retained earnings. Income statements of the affected prior periods presented for comparison purposes are restated to show, on a retrospective basis, the effects of the new accounting policy. When historical summaries are reported, the adjustments are reported in each prior year affected. When the effects on particular prior periods of a change in accounting policy is impractical to determine, the cumulative effect of the change (net of tax) is shown as an adjustment to the beginning retained earnings. Comparative financial statements of prior periods presented for comparison are not restated.

Ex. 21-59 Factors in choosing accounting methods and procedures Max Systems is a new technology start-up. The company is currently in the process of incorporating and choosing appropriate accounting policies for this firm. The management team wants to make sure it understands the economic consequences of the policys the company chooses. Instructions a) Explain what management means when it uses the term “economic consequences”. b) Identify and provide a detailed explanation of the four economic factors as discussed in the textbook that the management team of Max Systems may wish to consider when choosing the company’s accounting policies. Solution 21-59 a) Management pays careful attention to the accounting methods it follows and often changes accounting methods not for conceptual reasons but rather for economic reasons. As indicated throughout this textbook, such arguments have come to be known as economic consequences arguments, since they focus on the supposed impact of accounting on the behaviour of investors, creditors, competitors, governments, and the managers of the reporting companies themselves, rather than addressing the conceptual justification for accounting standards. b) Research has shown that choices of accounting policies often have economic consequences for 21-37 Copyright © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Canada, Ltd.

Test Bank for Intermediate Accounting, Thirteenth Canadian Edition

business organizations. As a result, management may choose accounting policies based on the expected economic impact of the policy. Some of these reasons are political costs, capital structure, bonus payments, and smoothing of earnings. Each of these is explained in more detail below: 1. Political costs: The larger the firm, the more likely it is to become subject to legislation such as anti-competition regulations and the more likely it is to be required to pay higher taxes. Therefore, companies that are politically visible may try to report income numbers that are low in order to avoid the scrutiny of regulators. 2. Capital structure: Several studies have found that a company’s capital structure can affect the selection of accounting methods. For example, a company with a high debt-to-equity ratio is more likely to be constrained by debt covenants. A company may be considered in default on its bonds if the debt-to-equity ratio is too high. As a result, this type of company is more likely to select accounting methods that will increase net income—such as capitalizing interest instead of expensing it, or using the full cost method instead of the successful efforts approach for exploration and development costs in the oil and gas industry. 3. Bonus payments: Studies have found that if compensation plans tie managers’ bonus payments to income, management may select accounting methods that maximize bonus payments. 4. Smooth earnings: Substantial increases in earnings attract the attention of politicians, regulators, and competitors. In addition, large increases in income create problems for management because the same results are difficult to achieve in subsequent years. Compensation plans may adjust to these higher numbers as a baseline and make it difficult for management to achieve its profit goals and receive bonuses in the following years. On the other hand, decreases in earnings might signal that the company is in financial trouble. Furthermore, significant changes in income raise concerns on the part of shareholders, lenders, and other interested parties about the riskiness of the company. For all these reasons, companies have an incentive to “manage” or “smooth” their earnings.

Ex. 21-60 IASB and accounting policies and estimates As part of its disclosure initiative, why is the IASB looking at the definitions of accounting policies and accounting estimates? Solution 21-60 The IASB is looking at the definitions of accounting policies and accounting estimates as some preparers and users feel that the definitions currently provided in IFRS are not sufficiently detailed or informative. What is the issue? As noted in the chapter, accountants are increasingly called to deal with measurement uncertainty and must continually estimate and re-estimate many financial statement elements. If we look at recently issued IFRS, we can see that, as new standards are issued 21-38 Copyright © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Canada, Ltd. Unauthorized copying, distribution, or transmission of this page is prohibited


Test Bank for Intermediate Accounting, Thirteenth Canadian Edition

or old standards revised, the IASB is including additional guidance regarding tools and techniques to measure and deal with estimation uncertainty. Therefore, as the amount of guidance increases (including specific methods to estimate amounts), the act of estimating becomes in many ways more complex and companies must carefully consider which methodologies should be used to measure things and how they should be applied. Thus the line between changes in accounting policies and changes in estimates is becoming more blurred. Difficulty: Easy Learning Objective: Identify differences in accounting between IFRS and APSE.

2023 2022 2021 $240,000 $225,000 $180,000 During the 2023 year-end audit, the following items come to your attention: 1. Parrot bought a truck on January 1, 2020 for $98,000 cash, with an $8,000 estimated residual value and a six-year life. The company debited an expense account for the entire cost of the asset. Parrot uses straight-line depreciation for all trucks. 2. During 2023, Parrot changed from straight-line depreciation for its cement plant to double declining balance. The following calculations present depreciation on both bases: 2023 2022 2021 Straight-line $18,000 $18,000 $18,000 Double declining balance 23,100 30,000 36,000 The net income for 2023 was calculated using the double declining balance method. 3. In reviewing its provision for uncollectible accounts during 2023, the corporation has determined that 1% is the appropriate amount of bad debt expense to be charged to operations. The company had used 1/2 of 1% as its rate in 2022 and 2021 when the expense had been $9,000 and $6,000, respectively. Parrot recorded bad debt expense using the new rate for 2023. If they had used the old rate, they would have recorded $3,000 less bad debt expense on December 31, 2023. Instructions (Ignore all income tax effects) a) Prepare the general journal entry required to correct the books for the item 1 situation (only) of this problem, assuming that the books have not been closed for 2023. b) Present comparative income statement data for the years 2021 to 2023, starting with income before the cumulative effect of any accounting changes. c) Assume that the beginning retained earnings balance (unadjusted) for 2021 was $630,000.

The high-tech windows have the ability to both cool homes in the summer and warm them in the winter. The company owns the following assets: 1. Manufacturing equipment that was purchased for $495,000 on August 1, 2019. The equipment was estimated to have a useful life of 10 years with no residual value. 2. A patent for the heating / cooling technology that was purchased for $315,000 on August 1, 2019. The patent is estimated to have a remaining legal life of 12 years with no residual value. GHA has a fiscal year end of July 31 and uses straight-line depreciation. On August 1, 2022, GHA determines that the equipment actually only has a 7-year useful life from the acquisition date, but with a residual value of $25,000. In addition, the economic benefits of the patent were determined to only last 6 years from the acquisition date.

If there is no specific IFRS that applies, management applies judgement in determining a policy that is relevant to the needs of users and is reliable. Judgement considers first the requirements of IFRS in similar situations, and then the definitions, recognition criteria, and elements in the Framework for the Preparation and Presentation of Financial Statements.

From 2022 sales 10,600 4,000 From 2023 sales 15,000 The controller estimates that an additional $21,800 in bad debts will be written off in 2024: $3,800 applicable to 2022 sales and $18,000 to 2023 sales. Inventory has been shipped on consignment. These transactions have been recorded as ordinary sales and billed as such (on account). At December 31, 2023, inventory billed and in the hands of consignees amounted to $160,000. The percentage markup on selling price is 20%. Assume that the consigned inventory is sold the following year. The company uses the perpetual inventory system. During 2023, Stork sold $300,000 worth of goods on the instalment basis. The cost of sales associated with these instalment sales is $225,000. The company inadvertently handled these sales and related costs as part of their regular sales transactions. Cash of $86,000, including a down payment of $30,000, was collected on these instalment sales during 2023. Due to questionable collectability, the instalment method was considered appropriate.

c) CRITICAL THINKING: In this case Stork made an adjustment to its accounting policies and there was a change in estimates. Accounting changes may result for any of the following reasons: 1. A change in accounting policy. Changes in the choice of “specific principles, bases, conventions, rules, and practices applied by an entity in preparing and presenting financial statements” are all changes in accounting policies. The initial adoption of a new accounting standard and a change from a weighted average cost flow formula to one based on FIFO (as long as this results in reliable and more relevant information) are both examples of a change in policy. 2. A change in accounting estimate. A change in an accounting estimate is an adjustment to the carrying amount of an asset or a liability or the amount of an asset’s periodic consumption, and results from an assessment of the present status of or the expected future benefits and obligations associated with an asset or liability. Examples include a change in the estimate of the service life of an asset that is subject to depreciation, and a change in the estimate of the net realizable value of accounts receivable. 3. Correction of a prior period error. Prior period errors are omissions from or mistakes in the financial statements of one or more prior periods that are caused by the misuse of, or failure to use, reliable information that existed when those financial statements were completed and could reasonably have been found and used in their preparation and presentation. An example is the failure to recognize depreciation on a group of capital assets that were used in operations for a specific prior period.

CHAPTER 22 STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS CHAPTER STUDY OBJECTIVES 1. Understand cash and cash equivalents as well as the business importance of cash flows, and describe the purpose and uses of the statement of cash flows. One sign of a healthy company is positive cash flow from operations. Companies can use these funds to finance expansion, to issue dividends, or to ensure that they remain solvent during economic downturns. Many consider the statement of cash flows to be less susceptible to earnings management than the statement of comprehensive income. The primary purpose of this statement is to provide information about an entity’s cash receipts and cash payments during a period. A secondary objective is to report the entity’s operating, investing, and financing activities during the period. Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, demand deposits, and short-term, highly liquid nonequity investments that are convertible to known amounts of cash with insignificant risk of changes in value. These amounts are reduced by bank overdrafts that fluctuate from positive to negative balances and that are repayable on demand. IFRS allows preferred shares acquired within a short period of their maturity to be included as a cash equivalent.

2. Identify the major classifications of cash flows and explain the significance of each classification. Cash flows are classified into those resulting from operating, investing, and financing activities. A company’s ability to generate operating cash flows affects its capacity to pay dividends to shareholders, to take advantage of investment opportunities, to provide internal financing for growth, and to meet obligations when they fall due. The amount of cash spent on investing activities affects an organization’s potential for future cash flows. Cash invested in increased levels of productive assets forms the basis for increased future operating cash inflows. Financing cash activities affect the firm’s capital structure and, therefore, the requirements for future cash outflows.

3. Prepare the operating activities section of a statement of cash flows using the direct versus the indirect method. The direct method presents operating cash flows in a manner similar to a condensed cash basis income statement. The accrual amounts are listed and adjusted whenever the cash received or paid out differs from the revenues, gains, expenses, and losses reported in net income, and for non-operating gains and losses.

4. Understand the basic steps in the manual preparation of a statement of cash flows. The statement of cash flows (SCF) is usually based on an analysis of the changes in the accounts on the statement of financial position over the accounting period. The basic steps in preparing the SCF are to 1) determine the change in cash; 2) record information from the income statement onto the 22-1 Copyright © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Canada, Ltd. Unauthorized copying, distribution, or transmission of this page is prohibited


Test Bank for Intermediate Accounting, Thirteenth Canadian Edition

work sheet for the SCF; 3) analyze the change in each SFP account, identify all cash flows associated with changes in the SFP account balance, and record the effect on the SCF; and 4) complete the SCF.

5. Prepare a statement of cash flows using the direct method. The direct method involves determining the change in cash and cash equivalents during the period, inserting line items from the income statement as the starting point within the statement’s operating activities section, and analyzing the changes in all accounts on the statement of financial position to identify all transactions that have an impact on cash. Those with a cash impact are recorded on the statement of cash flows. To ensure that all cash flows have been identified, the results recorded on the statement are compared with the change in cash during the period. The statement is then prepared with required disclosures.

6. Prepare a statement of cash flows using the indirect method. The steps using the indirect method are the same as in Objective 5 above, with one exception. Rather than starting with line items from the income statement in the operating activities section, the net income amount is the beginning point. All the same adjustments are then made to adjust net income to a cash basis, but the style and format of the operating activities sections differ.

7. Prepare a complex statement of cash flows using both methods. When preparing a more complex statement of cash flows under either the direct or indirect method, the same four step process can be followed: (1) Determine the change in cash; (2) Record information from the income statement to the statement of cash flows; (3) Analyze the change in each SFP account and identify/record the effect on the statement of cash flows; and (4) Complete the statement of cash flows.

8. Identify the financial presentation and disclosure requirements for the statement of cash flows. Under IFRS, disclosure is required of cash flows associated with interest and dividends received and paid, the definition and components of cash and cash equivalents reconciled to the amounts reported on the statement of financial position, and the amount of and explanation for cash and cash equivalents not available for use. All income tax cash flows are reported as operating flows unless they can be linked directly to investing or financing flows. Choices are available under IFRS for the reporting of interest and dividends received (operating or investing) and interest and dividends paid (operating or financing). Gross amounts should be reported except in specifically permitted circumstances, and non-cash investing and financing transactions are excluded from the statement of cash flows, but details about these are reported elsewhere on the financial statements. Disclosures regarding changes in liabilities arising from financing activities are now also required. ASPE presentation requirements are very similar, but required disclosures are limited to interest and dividends paid and charged to retained earnings and the amount of any restricted cash. In addition, interest and dividends received are both operating flows, and interest and dividends paid are operating flows unless they were charged directly to retained earnings.

9. Read and interpret a statement of cash flows. The first step in reading and interpreting a statement of cash flows is to look at the subtotals for the three classifications of activities and the overall change in cash. This provides a high-level summary of the period’s cash flows. Next, analyze the items within each section for additional insights, keeping alert for accounting policies that affect the type of cash flow reported. Familiarity with the company’s business and strategic direction is very useful in interpreting the statement.

10. Identify differences in IFRS and ASPE, and explain what changes are expected to standards for the statement of cash flows. There are no significant differences between IFRS and ASPE related to the statement of cash flows except for the definition of cash equivalents and the presentation and disclosure requirements identified in Learning Objective 8. Proposed updates to IAS 7 are discussed in the Looking Ahead section.

11. Use a work sheet to prepare a statement of cash flows. A work sheet can be used to organize the analysis and cash flow information needed to prepare a statement of cash flows. This method accounts for all changes in the balances of non-cash statement of financial position accounts from the period’s beginning to the end, identifying all operating, investing, and financing cash flows in the process. The statement of cash flows is prepared from the cash flow information accumulated at the bottom of the work sheet.

basis about its operating, investing, and financing activities. The statement of cash flows therefore reports cash receipts, cash payments, and the net change in cash and cash equivalents resulting from an enterprise’s operating, investing, and financing activities. It does so in a format that reconciles the beginning and ending cash and cash equivalent balances and is designed to provide relevant information. b) Only the operating activities section is affected by the choice of method. The investing and financing sections are the same under both methods. The direct method adjusts revenues and expenses to a cash basis by showing the actual cash received from customers (and any other forms of revenue) and the actual amount of cash paid out for suppliers, employees, operating expenses, interest, taxes, etc. The difference between cash revenues and cash expenses is cash net income, i.e., the net cash flow from operating activities. The indirect method adjusts accrual net income to a cash basis. This is done by starting with the accrual net income and adding or subtracting changes in the balances of current assets and current liabilities during the year and adjusting for non-cash items included in net income. Examples of noncash items include depreciation and amortization, Loss on impairment of accounts receivable, amortization of bond discount or premium, book gains and losses on disposal of assets, and equity method revenues and losses.

Solution 22-86 (a) Free cash flow = Cash provided by operating activities – Net capital expenditures $19,000 – $10,000 = $9,000 (b) Free cash flow is a non-GAAP performance measure that uses information provided on the statement of cash flows as an indicator of financial flexibility. It reflects net operating cash flows reduced by the capital expenditures that are needed to sustain the current level of operations. The resulting cash flow is the discretionary cash that a company has available for increasing its capacity and acquiring new investments, paying dividends, retiring debt, repurchasing its shares, or simply adding to its liquidity. In general, companies with significant free cash flow can take advantage of new opportunities or cope well during poor economic times without jeopardizing current operations.

Test Bank for Intermediate Accounting, Thirteenth Canadian Edition

Solution 22-87 Under IFRS, there are several choices available for these items: 1. Interest paid/received and dividends received (except dividends received from a significant influence investment) can be recognized in operating activities (assuming they are included in calculating net income). 2.

Interest paid can also be treated as a financing outflow.

3.

Interest and dividends received can also be treated as investing inflows.

4.

Dividends paid can be treated as a financing outflow (highlighting the fact they are returns to shareholders), or an as operating outflow (as a measure of the ability of operations to cover returns to shareholders).

b) CRITICAL THINKING: The direct method adjusts revenues and expenses to a cash basis. The difference between cash revenues and cash expenses is cash net income, which is equal to net cash flow from operating activities (effectively, reporting income on a cash basis). The indirect method involves adjusting accrual net income to a cash basis. This is done by starting with accrual net income, adjusting for changes in working capital items and adding or subtracting non-cash items included in net income. Public companies generally prefer the indirect method, whereas lending officers and investors tend to prefer the direct method, because of the additional information provided. The only section affected by use of the direct vs indirect methods is the operating activities. IFRS and ASPE also encourage the use of the direct method. The principal advantage of the direct method is that it shows operating cash receipts and payments 22-70 Copyright © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Canada, Ltd. Unauthorized copying, distribution, or transmission of this page is prohibited


Test Bank for Intermediate Accounting, Thirteenth Canadian Edition

and is more consistent with the primary objective of a statement of cash flows, which is to provide information about an entity’s cash receipts and cash payments during a specific period. Advocates of this method maintain that such information is useful for estimating future cash flows. A possible disadvantage is that many companies say their data collection methods do not gather the information required to use the direct method, although this argument may be a bit weak given the powerful computer systems available today. As well, supporters of the indirect method say the direct method may incorrectly suggest that net cash flow from operating activities is as good as (or even better than) accrual net income as a performance measure. The principal advantage of the indirect method is that it focuses on the difference between net income reported on the income statement and the actual cash flow from operating activities. Other advantages offered by indirect method advocates are that it is the “familiar” method which has been used for many years, and that it is cheaper to develop the information compared to the information required for the direct method.

CHAPTER 23 OTHER MEASUREMENT AND DISCLOSURE ISSUES CHAPTER STUDY OBJECTIVES 1. Understand the importance of disclosure from a business perspective. Information disclosure is important to the proper functioning of capital markets and the allocation of capital. The information provided in financial statements helps investors compare the performance of companies and assess the relative risks and returns of different investments. Financial statement preparers must keep in mind both the costs and benefits of disclosure when making their disclosure decisions. Financial statements are just one of many sources of information for investors and creditors

2. Review the full disclosure principle and how it is implemented, and explain how companies use accounting policy notes. The full disclosure principle calls for financial reporting of any financial facts that are significant enough to influence the judgement of an informed reader. Implementing the full disclosure principle is difficult because the cost of disclosure can be substantial and the benefits difficult to assess. Disclosure requirements for public entities have increased because of (1) the growing complexity of the business environment, (2) the necessity for timely information, and (3) sustainability and ESG reporting. For private entities, disclosure requirements are lower due to the lesser complexity of many private entities and the fact that many stakeholders of private entities have greater access to information. Notes are the accountant’s means of amplifying or explaining the items presented in the main body of the statements. Information that is pertinent to specific financial statement items can be explained in qualitative terms, and supplementary quantitative data can be provided to expand the information in the financial statements. Accounting policy notes explain the accounting methods and policies chosen by the company, allowing greater comparability among companies.

3. Describe the disclosure requirements for major segments of a business. If only consolidated amounts are available to the analyst, much information regarding the composition of these figures is hidden in the aggregated figures. There is no way to tell from the consolidated data how much each product line contributes to the company’s profitability, risk, and growth potential. As a result, segment information is required by the profession for public entities, including general information about reportable segments; segment revenues, profit and loss, assets, liabilities, and related information; reconciliations; information about products and services; geographical area information; and information about revenues from major customers.

4. Describe the requirements and accounting problems associated with interim reporting. Interim reports cover periods of less than one year. There are two viewpoints regarding interim reports. The discrete view holds that each interim period should be treated as a separate accounting period. In contrast, the integral view holds that the interim report is an integral part of the annual report and 23-1 Copyright © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Canada, Ltd. Unauthorized copying, distribution, or transmission of this page is prohibited


Test Bank for Intermediate Accounting, Thirteenth Canadian Edition

that deferrals and accruals should consider what will happen for the entire year. IFRS encourages the discrete view approach. The same accounting principles that are used for annual reports should generally be used for interim reports; however, there are several unique reporting problems, such as seasonality and presentation of earnings per share.

5. Discuss the accounting issues for related-party transactions. Related-party transactions pose special accounting issues. Because the transactions are not at arm’s length, they may have to be remeasured under ASPE, as the exchange amount is not necessarily representative of the market or fair value. Without reliable information, the transaction may have to be remeasured to reflect historical values or carrying amounts. IFRS does not require remeasurement of related-party transactions, whereas ASPE does.

6. Identify the accounting issues relating to subsequent events and those faced by unincorporated businesses. There are two types of subsequent everts. The first provides additional evidence about an event that existed at the statement of financial position date. These events should be reflected in the SFP and income statement. The second type of event provides evidence about events or transactions that did not exist at the SFP date. These events should be disclosed in notes if they will have a material impact on the company’s future. The accounting issues faced by unincorporated businesses are similar to those that are incorporated, with a few exceptions such as (a) defining the economic entity (b) the need to clearly indicate salaries, interest, or similar items accruing to owners (c) the lack of a requirement for a provision for income taxes, and (d) the need detail the changes in owners’ equity during the period in the financial statements.

7. Identify the major considerations relating to bankruptcy and receivership. Bankruptcy is a legal process that occurs when a company (or individual) is unable to pay its debts. The Office of the Superintendent of Bankruptcy administers the bankruptcy process in Canada. Companies facing bankruptcy can make a proposal to pay their creditors a percentage of what was owed at the time of the proposal, or they could request an extension to the time available to pay off their debts (or both). A receivership process is typically started by a secured creditor, or a group of secured creditors, if a company defaults on a loan. A receiver is appointed by the bankruptcy court. A receivership and a bankruptcy could occur at the same time, and two different companies could be appointed for the roles of receiver and trustee in bankruptcy.

8. Identify the major disclosures found in the auditor’s report. If the auditor is satisfied that the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position, its financial performance and its cash flows in accordance with GAAP, the auditor expresses an unmodified opinion. A qualified opinion contains an exception to the standard opinion; however, the exception would not be significant enough to invalidate the statements as a whole. An adverse opinion is required in any report in which the exceptions to fair presentation are so pervasive that a qualified opinion is not justified. A disclaimer of an opinion is appropriate when the auditor has gathered insufficient information on the financial statements so that no opinion can be expressed 23-2 Copyright © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Canada, Ltd.

9. Describe methods used for basic financial statement analysis and summarize the limitations of ratio analysis. Various techniques are used in the analysis of financial statement data. These include ratio analysis, common-size analysis, trend analysis, and examination of related data (in notes and other sources). No one technique is always more useful than another. Every situation faced by the analyst is different, and the answers needed are often obtained only on close examination of the interrelationships among all the data provided. Ratio analysis is a starting point in developing information desired by an analyst. While the basic concepts and tools for analysis are provided, keep in mind that there are limitations inherent in individual financial statement analysis techniques. For more complex techniques, you should refer to textbooks and courses that focus extensively on financial statement analysis.

10. Identify the major differences in accounting between IFRS and ASPE, and what changes are expected in the near future. Differences are noted in the chapter and the comparison chart in Illustration 23.12. No significant changes are expected in the near future. However, the OSC has released proposed amendments to its continuous disclosure requirements. In addition, IASB plans to update its Management Commentary Practice statement and issued a new Exposure Draft in 2021 to start the process.

a) b) c)

What are the major accounting problems related to interim reports? What problem exists with income taxes in interim reports and how does IFRS recommend that income taxes should be reported? Many academics have attempted to predict the year's net income after the first quarter's income is reported. These attempts are generally unsuccessful, no matter how sophisticated the prediction model. What might be the reason for this inability to predict?

Solution 23-56 a) The major accounting issues related to interim reporting are the treatment of (1) annually determined items such as income taxes, pension costs, and executive compensation based on annual net income, (2) retrospective accounting changes, (3) earnings per share, and (3) the problem of seasonality. b)

The basic question with income taxes is whether, in the preparation of interim income statements, the provision for taxes should reflect the anticipated effective tax rate for the year or be calculated on the basis of actual results for that interim period. IFRS recommends that at the end of each interim period the company should make its best estimate of the effective tax rate expected to be applicable for the full fiscal year. This rate should then be used in estimating income taxes on a current year-to-date basis.

c)

The prediction models are probably unsuccessful because accountants have not treated the problem of seasonality correctly in their interim reports. One of the problems is that fixed nonmanufacturing costs are not charged in proportion to sales. Instead, these costs are charged as incurred, or spread evenly over each quarter. As a result, it is extremely difficult to make accurate predictions because some artificial concepts are used for matching purposes.

Ex. 23-58 Ratios for financial analysis Alberta Company is a privately held company that would like to provide more useful information to the users of its financial statements. Specifically, it would like to make the information easy to analyze and access. The CEO would like to move away from paper-based reporting and make all of Alberta Company’s information available on the internet.

Instructions As part of your response please answer the following questions: a) Identify the major categories of ratios that can be used for analysis. Describe how the ratios for each category would be used and provide examples of each. b) Identify and discuss the advantages and disadvantages of internet versus paper-based reporting.

Solution 23-58 a) The four major types of ratios are: 1. Liquidity ratios, which measure the enterprise’s short-term ability to pay obligations as they become due. Examples are the current ratio and the acid-test ratio. 2.

Activity ratios, which measure how effectively the enterprise is using its assets, as well as how quickly the asset’s value is realized. Examples are the inventory turnover and asset turnover ratios.

3.

Profitability ratios, which measure financial performance and shareholder value creation for a specific time frame. Examples are profit margin on sales and rate of return on common shareholders’ equity.

4.

Coverage (solvency) ratios, which measure the degree of protection for long-term creditors and investors, or the enterprise’s ability to meet long-term obligations. Examples are debt to total assets and times interest earned.

Liquidity and coverage ratios generally reflect financial strength, i.e., the ability to satisfy the financial requirements of non-ownership interests.

The controller issues the transfer but recommends that the details of the transfer be disclosed in the financial statements. The CEO disagrees.

PROBLEMS Pr. 23-61 Segmented reporting (IFRS requirements) A central issue in reporting on operating segments of a business enterprise is the determination of which segments are reportable under IFRS. Instructions a) According to IFRS, what are the tests to determine whether or not an operating segment is reportable? b) What is the test to determine if enough operating segments have been separately reported upon, and what is the guideline on the maximum number of operating segments to be shown? Solution 23-61 a) There are three basic tests to be applied to segments of an industry to see if they are significant enough to be separately reportable. If a segment meets any one of the tests, it is deemed significant and reportable. The first test is based on revenue. If a segment's revenue from sales to external customers and intersegment sales and transfers is equal to 10% or more of the enterprise's combined revenues, the segment is reportable. The second test is based on profits or losses. A segment is deemed reportable if the absolute amount of its profit or loss is 10% or more of the greater, in absolute amount, of: The combined profits of all operating segments reporting profits. The combined losses of all operating segments reporting losses. Third, a segment is reportable if its assets equal or exceed 10% of the combined assets of all operating segments of the enterprise. b) Enough operating segments must be separately reported so that the total of revenues from sales to external customers for the reportable segments equals or exceeds 75% of the combined sales to external customers for the entire enterprise. If applying the prescribed tests does not yield the required percentage of revenues described above, additional segments must be reported on until the 75% test is met. The profession recognizes that if an enterprise has many reportable segments, the benefit to the reader may be lost if more than 10 segments are reported. Therefore, it has proposed ten segments as an upper limit for the number of reportable segments. Note that ASPE does not provide guidance for reporting segmented information.

IFRS requires that an enterprise report the following segmented information: 1. General information about its reportable segments. 2.

Segment revenues, profit and loss, assets, liabilities, and related information.

3. Reconciliation of the total of the segments’ revenues to total revenues, a reconciliation of the total of operating segments’ profits and losses to its income before income taxes and discontinued operations, and a reconciliation of the total of the operating segments’ assets and liabilities to total assets and liabilities. Reconciliations for other significant items that are disclosed should also be presented. 4.

Information about products and services (revenue from external customers).

5. Revenues from external customers (domestic vs foreign) and capital assets and goodwill (domestic vs. foreign). If the amounts are material, foreign information must be disclosed by country. 6. If 10% or more of the revenues are derived from a single customer, the enterprise must disclose the total amount of revenues from each of these customers by segment.

Pr. 23-63 Interim reporting There is ongoing discussion as to the proper method of reflecting results of operations at interim dates. Accordingly, IFRS has made recommendations regarding interim financial reporting. Instructions a) Discuss generally how revenue should be recognized at interim dates and specifically how revenue should be recognized for industries subject to large seasonal fluctuations in revenue and for long-term contracts using the percentage-of-completion method. b) Discuss generally how product and period costs should be recognized at interim dates. Also discuss how inventory values should be treated at interim dates. c) Discuss how the provision for income taxes is calculated and reported in interim financial statements. Solution 23-63 a) Sales and other revenues should be recognized for interim financial statement purposes in the same manner as for annual reporting purposes. This means normally at the point of sale or, in the case of services, at completion of the earnings process. In the case of industries whose sales vary greatly due to the seasonality, revenues should still be recognized as earned, but a disclosure should be made of the seasonal nature of the business. In the case of long-term contracts recognizing earnings on the percentage-of-completion basis, the current state of completion of the contract should be estimated and revenue recognized at interim dates in the same manner as at the normal year-end. b) For interim reporting purposes, product costs (costs directly attributable to the production of goods or services) should be matched with the product and associated revenues in the same manner as for annual reporting purposes. Period costs (costs not directly associated with the production of a particular good or service) should be charged to earnings as incurred or allocated among interim periods based on an estimate of time expired, benefit received, or other activity associated with the particular interim period(s). Also, if a gain or loss occurs during an interim period and is a type that would not be deferred at year end, the gain or loss should be recognized in full in the interim period in which it occurs. Finally, in allocating period costs among interim periods, the basis for allocation must be supportable and may not be based on merely an arbitrary assignment of costs between interim periods. Inventory losses from a decline in market value at interim dates should be recognized in the appropriate period unless they are temporary and no loss is expected for the fiscal year. c) A corporation would prepare its tax return at year end and assess taxes payable and related tax balances. It is normally neither cost effective nor feasible (since tax rates are often graduated) to do this for each interim period. Therefore, an annual estimated tax rate is calculated, then an estimate is made of interim taxable income and temporary differences and then the annual estimated tax rate is applied. 23-39 Copyright © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Canada, Ltd.

Solution 23-64 Type 1 events provide additional evidence about situations that existed at the statement of financial position date, affecting the estimates used in preparing the financial statements and, therefore, will result in required adjustments. These items should be reflected in the final financial statements. To ignore these subsequent transactions is to miss an opportunity to improve the accuracy of the financial statements. Type 2 events provide evidence about situations that did not exist at the statement of financial position date.

Instructions Prepare a response for the CEO outlining the options available to the company. Include an explanation of the different types of creditors and how they are affected under these options. Identify what types of creditors Brylan has. Solution 23-65 Companies facing bankruptcy can make a proposal to either pay their creditors a percentage of what was owed at the time of the proposal, or they could request an extension to the amount of time available to pay their debts (or both). The main categories of creditors affected are: • Secured creditors. These creditors may have a lien (a legal claim on assets to secure the payment of a debt) against all or part of a debtor’s property (such as a bank with a lien on the company’s inventory that acts as security or collateral for a loan). This may include bank indebtedness, the mortgage payable and possibly the bank loan payable and bonds payable if assets have been pledged against the loans. Otherwise, the bank loan payable and bonds payable may be unsecured. • Preferred creditors. These creditors have the first priority when claiming any funds that are available (after, for example, secured creditors take possession and dispose of their collateral). Preferred creditors typically include employee claims for unpaid wages and GST payable. • Unsecured creditors. These creditors do not have any security or collateral for the debts owed to them. This would include accounts payable, deferred revenues, and possible the bank and bonds payable as identified above.

A qualified opinion contains an exception to the standard opinion; ordinarily the exception is not of sufficient magnitude to invalidate the statements as a whole. A qualified opinion may also be given if there is a scope limitation where the auditor has not been able to obtain sufficient and appropriate evidence. An adverse opinion is required in any report in which the exceptions to fair presentation are so material that a qualified opinion is not justified. A disclaimer of an opinion is appropriate when the auditor has gathered so little information on the financial statements that no opinion can be expressed.

Pr. 23-67 Uncertainty and financial information Harmat Inc. is currently assessing an opportunity to invest in Max Systems, a relatively new financial technology start-up. Max Systems has been in operations for 18 months and has made its most recent set of accountant prepared financial statements available to Harmat to assist it with making the investment decision. Harmat approaches you as a CPA to ask for advice. It specifically wants to know how reliable the financial statements are Instructions Provide Harmat with a report explaining all of the sources of uncertainty when considering the usefulness of financial statement information to a decision-maker. Solution 23-67 A research study identified the following four sources of uncertainty as being important when considering the usefulness of financial statement information to a decision-maker. 1. Uncertainty about the nature and role of financial statements. Misunderstanding the nature, purpose, terminology used, and method of preparation of financial statements can lead users to misinterpret and/or place inappropriate reliance on the information. 2.

Uncertainty about the nature of business operations portrayed in the financial statements. The unpredictability of business activities due to factors such as economic environment, technology, and competitors’ actions causes uncertainty. Knowledge of the type of business activities carried out is important in determining the extent of the uncertainties that characterize these activities.

3.

Uncertainty due to limitations of financial statement measurements and disclosures. The conceptual framework, CPA Canada Handbook recommendations, and accounting practices provide various principles to be followed and methods used. Uncertainty occurs when the 23-42

Copyright © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Canada, Ltd. Unauthorized copying, distribution, or transmission of this page is prohibited


Test Bank for Intermediate Accounting, Thirteenth Canadian Edition

resulting measurements and disclosures are not well understood, are thought to be incomplete or lack relevance in a particular decision context. 4.

Uncertainty about management’s motives and intentions. Management is responsible for determining the accounting policies and methods used to prepare the financial statements. Choice of a policy or method should be based on reflecting underlying economic reality. This source of uncertainty suggests, however, that users may suspect that management’s choices are more motivated by a need to “manage earnings” to maximize bonuses over time, or to avoid debt covenant violations.

A PPENDIX C THE ACCOUNTING INFORMATION SYSTEM CHAPTER LEARNING OBJECTIVES 1. Understand basic accounting terminology, double-entry rules, and the accounting equation. It is important to understand the following terms: (1) event, (2) transaction, (3) account, (4) permanent and temporary accounts, (5) ledger, (6) journal, (7) posting, (8) trial balance, (9) adjusting entries, (10) financial statements, (11) closing entries, and (12) reversing entries. The left side of any account is the debit side; the right side is the credit side. All asset and expense accounts are increased on the left or debit side and decreased on the right or credit side. Conversely, all liability and revenue accounts are increased on the right or credit side and decreased on the left or debit side. Shareholders’ equity accounts, Common Shares, and Retained Earnings are increased on the credit side, whereas the shareholders’ equity related Dividends account is increased on the debit side. In a double-entry accounting system, for every debit there must be a credit, and vice versa. This leads us to the basic accounting equation for corporations: Assets = Liabilities + Shareholders’ Equity. The effect of individual transactions on the statement of financial position can be explained using the basic accounting equation. The shareholders’ equity portion of the equation can also be expanded to illustrate the effect of transactions on components of equity such as common shares and retained earnings. Whenever a transaction occurs, the elements of the equation change, but the equality of the two sides of the equation remains unaffected.

2. Identify the steps in the accounting cycle and the steps in the recording process. The basic steps in the accounting cycle are (1) identification and measurement of transactions and other events, (2) journalizing, (3) posting, (4) the unadjusted trial balance, (5) adjustments, (6) the adjusted trial balance, (7) statement preparation, and (8) closing. The first three steps in the accounting cycle form the basis of the recording process used by most medium-sized companies on a daily basis. The simplest journal form is a chronological listing of transactions and events that are expressed as debits and credits to particular accounts. The items entered in a general journal must then be transferred (posted) to the general ledger. To help prepare financial statements, an unadjusted trial balance should be prepared at the end of a specific period (usually a month, quarter, or year) after the entries have been recorded in the journals and posted to the general ledger.

3. Explain the reasons for and prepare adjusting entries. Adjustments achieve a proper matching of expenses and revenues, which is needed to determine the correct net income for the current period and to achieve an accurate statement of the end-of-the-period balances in assets, liabilities, and shareholders’ equity accounts. When preparing adjusting journal entries, you must first determine how the original transaction was recorded. For example, was an asset created earlier in the fiscal year (such as prepaid rent) when the initial payment was made? If so, an adjustment for the related Appendix_C-1 Copyright © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Canada, Ltd. Unauthorized copying, distribution, or transmission of this page is prohibited


Test Bank for Intermediate Accounting, Thirteenth Canadian Edition

expense is required. Alternatively, if an income statement account was used initially, an adjustment may be required to set up the proper statement of financial position account at the end of the period.

4. Explain how the type of ownership structure affects the financial statements. The type of ownership structure that a business enterprise uses determines the types of accounts that are part of the equity section. In a corporation, ordinary or common shares, contributed surplus, retained earnings, and accumulated other comprehensive income are commonly shown separately on the statement of financial position. In a proprietorship or partnership, a capital account is used to indicate the investment in the company by the owner(s). An owners’ drawings or withdrawal account may be used to indicate withdrawals by the owner(s). These two accounts are grouped or netted under owners’ equity.

5. Prepare closing entries and consider other matters relating to the closing process. In the closing process, all of the revenue and expense account balances (income statement items) are transferred to a clearing account called Income Summary, which is used only at the end of the fiscal year. Revenues and expenses are matched in the Income Summary account. The net result of this matching, which represents the net income or net loss for the period, is then transferred to a shareholders’ equity account (Retained Earnings for a corporation and capital accounts for proprietorships and partnerships). Reversing entries may be used for reversing accrued revenues and accrued expenses. Prepayments may also be reversed if the initial entry to record the transaction is made to an expense or revenue account.

6. Prepare a 10-column work sheet and financial statements. The 10-column work sheet provides columns for the first trial balance, adjustments, adjusted trial balance, statement of comprehensive income, and statement of financial position. The work sheet does not replace the financial statements. Instead, it is the accountant’s informal device for accumulating and sorting the information that is used for the financial statements.

A corporation would have share capital accounts (common shares and, possibly, preferred shares) and would report Retained Earnings of the firm. Therefore, we know that this excerpt is not a corporation. Since there are capital accounts for more than one individual, it cannot be a sole proprietorship. Therefore, based on the multiple owners’ capital accounts, it can be concluded that this is an excerpt from a partnership’s financial statements.

Test Bank for Intermediate Accounting, Thirteenth Canadian Edition

As the accountant for Santos, you are to prepare adjusting entries based on the following data, entering the adjustments on the work sheet and completing the additional columns with respect to the income statement and statement of financial position. Carefully key your adjustments and label all items. (An adjusted trial balance is not required, but is included in the solution.) Round all calculations to the nearest dollar. (a) After an aging of accounts receivable, it was determined that three percent of the accounts will become uncollectible. (b) Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method, with an eight-year life and $1,000 residual (salvage) value. (c) Salesmen are paid commissions of 11% of sales. Commissions on sales for the last week of December have not been paid. (d) The note was issued on October 1, 2023, with interest at 8%, due Feb. 1, 2024. (e) A physical inventory of supplies indicated $280 of supplies currently on hand. (f) Provisions of the company’s lease contract specify rent payments must be made one month in advance, with monthly payments of $900/mo. This provision has been complied with as at Dec. 31, 2023.

Problem A-2 Solution a. 1. Prepaid Insurance ......................................................................... 2,475 Insurance Expense................................................................. 2,475 Explanation: Both Policies 1 and 3 have expired, so their costs stay in Insurance Expense. The monthly premium for Policy 2 is $2,700 ÷ 36 = $75. At Dec 31/20, the unexpired portion is 33 months x $75 = $2,475 and needs to be transferred to the asset account. 2. Rent Revenue ............................................................................... 12,000 Unearned Rent ....................................................................... 12,000 Explanation: Monthly rent is $14,400 ÷ 18 = $800. At Dec 31/23, 15 months x $800 = $12,000 remains unearned, and needs to be transferred to the liability account. 3. Depreciation Expense ................................................................... 19,300 Accumulated Depreciation ...................................................... Explanation: Equipment retired during 2023 = $230,000 – $156,000 = $74,000. 10% of $156,000 = $15,600 5% of $74,000 = 3,700 Total depreciation = $19,300 4.

Allowance for Expected Credit Losses ................................... 2,450 Explanation: Corrected ending A/R balance: $69,000 – $10,000 = $59,000. 5% x $59,000 = $2,950. Since the unadjusted Allowance is $500 Cr, the adjustment is $2,950 – $500 = $2,450 7. Interest Receivable .......................................................................

Items 1, 2, 5, and 7: Items No. 1 and No. 2 represent prepaid items that were initially recorded in temporary accounts. Items No. 5 and No. 7 represent accrued items.

Problem A-3 Solution 1. Permanent accounts (also called real accounts) are assets, liability, and equity accounts. Temporary accounts include revenue, expense, and dividend accounts. Permanent accounts are not closed, while temporary accounts are closed at the fiscal year end. 2.

The 5-step process under the asset-liability approach includes the following: 1. Identify the contract with customers. 2. Identify the separate performance obligations in the contract. 3. Determine the transaction price. 4. Allocate the transaction price to the separate performance obligations. 5. Recognize revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied.

3.

Traditional approach: The discount rate reflects all risks in the cash flows, but the cash flows are assumed to be certain. This is sometimes referred to as the “discount rate adjustment technique.” Expected cash flow approach: A risk-free discount rate is used to discount cash flows that have been adjusted for uncertainty. This is sometimes referred to as the “expected present value technique.”

4.

Classification in financial statements increases their information content and aids in the ease of analysis. This is accomplished through the grouping of items with similar characteristics and separating items with different characteristics.

5.

Free cash flow can be defined as a measure of a company's level of financial flexibility and is calculated as cash flow from operating activities less capital expenditures and dividends.

6.

The earnings approach focuses on the earnings process itself and how value is added. The asset-liability (contract-based) approach focuses on the creation of contractual rights and obligations that are created by sales contracts.

Problem B-2 Solution 1. Cash and cash equivalents are financial assets. Cash consists of coins, currency, and available funds on deposit at a bank, as well as negotiable instruments. Cash equivalents are highly liquid short-term investments that can be exchanged for known amounts of cash. Together they are usually reported under current assets as “cash and cash equivalents” in the statement of financial position unless the funds are restricted or otherwise encumbered. 2.

The two standards are for the most part very similar. Differences include the disclosure requirements, which are more extensive under IFRS, and the use of the effective interest method for the amortization of discounts and premiums for financial assets (required by IFRS, but optional under ASPE).

Manufacturing companies typically have three inventory categories: raw materials, work-inprocess, and finished goods. Amounts for goods and materials that are on hand but have not yet gone into production are reported as raw materials inventory. The cost of the raw material on which production has started but is not yet complete, plus the direct labour cost applied specifically to this material and its applicable share of manufacturing overhead costs, make up the work-in-process inventory. The costs associated with the completed but still

Problem C-3 Solution 1. The major categories are marketing-related, customer-related, artistic-related, contractbased, and technology-based intangible assets. 2. The two models are the cost recovery impairment model and the rational entity impairment model. The first is used for ASPE and the latter is used in IFRS. Overall, the rational entity model used under IFRS provides better information for users: it provides better representational faithfulness as it is more neutral; it is more relevant; it provides more timely information; and it better reflects the time value of money and the fair value of impaired assets. 3. Depreciation accounting is the systematic and rational allocation of the cost of plant assets to the periods benefited from the use of the assets. 4. Depreciation accounting does not affect cash. Revenues impact cash. Depreciation accounting is a non-cash expense on the income statements that reduces income taxes.

Problem C-4 Solution a. Recoverable amount: The recoverable amount is the higher of the asset's value in use of $64,000 and its fair value less selling costs of $67,000. Thus, the recoverable amount is $67,000. b. Impairment loss: Carrying amount............................................................................

Problem E-1 Accounting Changes and Error Corrections Thor Corp.’s reported pretax incomes for 2023 and the previous two years as follows: 2023 2022 2021 $150,000 $125,000 $95,000 The 2023 income was correctly determined after considering the following accounting changes and error corrections made during the year (the errors were made in previous years but were not discovered until 2023). The income for 2021 and 2022 do not take these items into account and are stated at the amounts determined at the time. 1. Early in 2023, Thor determined that equipment purchased in January 2021 for $136,000, with an estimated life of eight years and residual value of $6,000, is now estimated to have a total eleven-year life (from the date of purchase) but will have only a $1,800 residual value. Thor is using straight-line depreciation for this equipment. 2. Thor discovered that depreciation expense had been understated by $17,000 in 2022, since an adjusting entry for depreciation on machinery was not recorded. 3. On January 1, 2020, Thor bought a piece of machinery for $108,000, with a $12,000 estimated residual value and an eight-year life. At that time, the bookkeeper debited an expense account for this purchase. Thor uses the double-declining depreciation method. 4. Thor, in reviewing its allowance for expected credit losses accounts during 2023, has determined that 1% is the appropriate amount of loss on impairment to be recorded. The company had been using 1.5% as its rate in 2022 and 2021 when the loss on impairment had been $14,000 and $10,000, respectively. Thor would have recorded $24,000 in loss on impairment for 2023 if they had used the old rate. 5. At the beginning of 2023, Thor decided to change from the average cost method of valuing inventories to FIFO and used FIFO all during 2023 (perpetual system). It has determined that the opening inventory on January 1, 2023, which was $55,500 using average cost, would have been $52,500 using FIFO. Assume this change will make its financial statements as reliable and more relevant. Instructions a. For each of the situations above, prepare the journal entry or entries Thor Corp. would have prepared to adjust for these items during 2023. If you think no entry was prepared, write “none.” Ignore income taxes. b. After recording each situation in part a., prepare the appropriate year-end adjusting entry (entries) that should have been made at December 31, 2023. If you think no entry would be required, write “none.” Ignore income taxes.

Problem E-2 Deferred Income Taxes In 2023, the first year of its existence, Spider Ltd.'s accountant, in preparing both the income statement and the tax return, developed the following list of items creating differences between accounting and taxable income: 1. The company sells its merchandise on an instalment contract basis. In 2023, Spider elected, for tax purposes, to report the gross profit from these sales in the years the receivables are collected. However, for financial statement purposes, the company recognized all the gross profit in 2023. These procedures created a $240,000 difference between book and taxable incomes for 2023. Future collections of instalment receivables are expected to result in taxable amounts of $120,000 in each of the next two years. 2. The company depreciates all of its property, plant and equipment using CCA for tax purposes

and straight-line for accounting purposes. This resulted in $42,000 excess CCA over accounting depreciation. This temporary difference will reverse equally over the three-year period from 2024–2026. On July 1, 2023, Spider leased part of its building to Swift Books Ltd. on a two-year operating lease. The monthly rent is $30,000, and Swift paid the first year's rent in advance (July 1, 2023 to June 30, 2024). Spider reported the entire amount on its tax return. This resulted in a $180,000 difference between book and taxable incomes. Assume an operating lease is appropriate in this case. Spider sold $150,000 of bonds issued by the Government of Canada at a gain of $18,000, which was included as other income in its income statement. A taxable capital gain of $9,000 was reported for tax purposes. In 2024, Spider insured the lives of its chief executives. The premiums paid were $12,000 and this amount was shown as an expense on the income statement. However, this amount was not deductible for tax purposes.

Spider is a publicly accountable enterprise adhering to IFRS. Its 2023 income statement showed "Income before income taxes" of $900,000. The currently enacted income tax rate (and for the foreseeable future) is 40%. Except for those items mentioned above, there are no other differences between book and taxable incomes. Instructions a. Calculate the income tax payable for 2023. b. Prepare a schedule of future taxable/deductible amounts at the end of 2023. c. Prepare a schedule of the deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability at the end of 2023. d. Calculate the net deferred tax expense (benefit) for 2023. e. Prepare the journal entry (entries) recording income tax expense, income tax payable, and deferred income taxes for 2023. f. How would the income tax expense and any deferred taxes be disclosed on the financial statements?

Problem E-4 Leases On January 1, 2023, Galactus Corp. (lessor) entered a noncancellable lease agreement with Blade Corp. (lessee) for machinery that was carried in Galactus’s accounting records at $2,265,000 and had a fair value of $2,400,000. Minimum lease payments under the lease agreement, which expires on December 31, 2032, total $3,550,000. Payments of $355,000 are due each January 1. The first payment was made on January 1, 2023 when the lease agreement was finalized. The interest rate of 10%, which was stipulated in the lease agreement is the implicit rate set by the lessor. The effective interest method is being used. Blade expects the machine to have a ten-year life with no residual value, and be depreciated on a straight-line basis. Collectibility of the rentals is reasonably assured, and there are no important uncertainties surrounding the costs yet to be incurred by Galactus. Both entities are small private corporations that follow ASPE. Instructions a. From the lessee's viewpoint, what kind of lease is the above agreement? From the lessor's viewpoint, what kind of lease is the above agreement? b. Ignoring income taxes, what should be the income reported by Galactus from the lease for calendar 2023? c. Ignoring income taxes, what should be the expenses incurred by Blade from this lease for the calendar 2023? d. What journal entries should be recorded by Blade Corp. on January 1, 2023? e. What journal entries should be recorded by Galactus Corp. on January 1, 2023?

Problem E-4 Solution a. From the viewpoint of the lessee (Blade Corp.), the lease is a capital (finance) lease because the present value of the minimum lease payments ($2,400,000) exceeds 90% of the fair market value of the leased property. The lease term also is in excess of 75% of the property's estimated economic life. For these same reasons and because of the predictable collectability, absence of uncertainties surrounding costs yet to be incurred by the lessor, and presence of a dealer's profit, the lease is a sales-type lease to the lessor, Galactus Corp. b.

Problem F-4 Solution a. Segments A, B, D, and E are reportable because they passed at least one of the tests. i. Revenue test—a segment is reportable if its total sales are $138,000 or more (10% × $1,380,000). Segments A, B, D and E satisfy the revenue test. ii. Operating profit or loss test—a segment's absolute profit or loss must be $27,000 or more [10% of the absolute greater of $160,000 or ($270,000)]. Segments A, B, and D satisfy the operating profit or loss test. iii. Assets test—a segment's identifiable assets must be $800,500 or more (10% × $8,005,000). Segments B, D, and E satisfy the assets test. b. The reportable segments, based on the above test results, exceed the 75% minimum of the company’s combined sales, which reflects enough sales to explain a significant portion of the business. (.75 x $1,380,000) = $1,035,000; revenue of A, B, D and E = $1,255,000

Problem F-5 Solution There are four sources of uncertainty: 1.

Uncertainty about the nature and role of financial statements. Misunderstanding the nature, purpose, terminology used, and method of preparation of financial statements can lead users to misinterpret and/or place inappropriate reliance on the information.

2.

Uncertainty about the nature of business operations portrayed in the financial statements. The unpredictability of business activities due to factors such as economic environment, technology, and competitors’ actions causes uncertainty. Knowledge of the type of business activities carried out is important in determining the extent of the uncertainties present.

3.

Uncertainty due to limitations of financial statement measurements and disclosures. The conceptual framework, CPA Canada Handbook recommendations, and accounting practices provide various principles to be followed and methods used. Uncertainty occurs when the resulting measurements and disclosures are not well understood, are thought to be incomplete, or lack relevance in a particular decision context.

4.

Uncertainty about management’s motives and intentions. Management is responsible for determining the accounting policies and methods used to prepare the financial statements. Choice of a policy or method should be based on reflecting underlying economic reality. This source of uncertainty suggests, however, that users may suspect that management’s choices are more motivated by a need to “manage earnings” – e.g. to maximize bonuses over time, or to avoid debt covenant violations.

Other limitations of ratio analysis include: 5.

Ratios are based on historical cost, which can lead to distortions in measuring performance.

6.

Accounting necessarily involves estimates. Estimated items (such as depreciation, site restoration costs, and bad debts) can be significant, and ratios based on significant estimates may be less credible.

7.

Achieving comparability among companies in a given industry may be difficult. Different enterprises often apply different accounting policies. Therefore, the analyst must identify basic differences in their accounting methods and make adjustments accordingly.
