Consistent fair value measurements IFRSs US GAAP Fair value measurement guidance in various standards Topic 820 (codified SFAS 157) May 2009 exposure draft Fair Value Measurement Objective: Common (identical) fair value measurement and disclosure standards
Premiums and Discounts • Must be consistent with characteristics of asset or liability and the unit of account • No block discounts Market participants act in their economic best interest in a transaction for the unit of account.
Financial Instruments • Exception for financial assets and liabilities with offsetting positions in market risk or counterparty credit risk • Entity must have documented risk management strategy • Only for portfolios of instruments measured at FV • Accounting policy decision
Financial Instruments continued • Market risks: • Must be substantially the same • Duration of instruments leading to exposure to market risk must be substantially the same • Counterparty credit risk: • Must have arrangement to mitigate credit risk in place
Liabilities and Shareholders’ Equity Is there an observable market price to transfer the instrument? Yes No Fair value = observable market price of instrument Does somebody hold the corresponding asset? Yes No Fair value = fair value of the corresponding asset Fair value = observable market price of asset Fair value = another valuation technique Is there an observable market price for the instrument traded as an asset? Yes No Fair value = another valuation technique
Disclosure • More information required for Level 3 fair value measurements: • A quantitative disclosure of the unobservable inputs and assumptions used in the measurement • A description of the valuation control process in place • A discussion of the sensitivity of the fair value to changes in unobservable inputs and any inter-relationships between those inputs that magnify or mitigate the effect on the measurement
Disclosure continued • Example
Disclosure continued • Current use of a nonfinancial asset when it differs from the highest and best use considered in its fair value measurement and reasons why • Required whether fair value is recognized or only disclosed • All transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy (no significance threshold)
Disclosure continued • For fair value measurements that are only disclosed, the level in which the fair value measurement would be categorized within the fair value hierarchy • Other disclosure requirements for fair value measurements would not apply
Application of Topic 820 to Nonpublic Entities • Measurement principles apply equally to public and nonpublic entities, but some disclosures not required for nonpublic entities • Transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 • Sensitivity of Level 3 fair value measurements to changes in unobservable inputs • Level in which a fair value measurement would be categorized within the fair value hierarchy when asset or liability not measured at fair value in statement of financial position, but disclosure of fair value is required
Effective Dates and Transition 2012 2013 2011 January 1, 2013 IFRS 13 effective Prospective transition Early application permitted • May 2011 • Common IFRS and U.S. GAAP fair value measurement standards • ASU No. 2011-04 • IFRS 13 • December 15, 2011 • ASU No. 2011-04 effective • Public entities • Interim and annual periods • Prospective transition with disclosure of changes and quantitative effect • Early application not permitted • Nonpublic entities • Annual periods • Prospective transition with disclosure of changes and quantitative effect • Early application permitted for interim periods after December 15
