The designation of hedge accounting cannot be made retroactively. If they were properly designated under previous GAAP and do not meet the IFRS criteria it must discontinue hedge accounting. Follow transition provisions in IAS 39 for hedging IFRS estimates at the date of transition to IFRSs shall be consistent with those made for the same date in accordance with previous GAAP (after adjustments to reflect differences in accounting policies), unless there is objective evidence that those estimates were in error. Use of estimates Certain requirements to apply IAS 27 prospectively from the date of transition (OCI distribution, changes in shareholdings that do not result in loss of control and loss of control over a subsidiary).
