The agreed purchase consideration include an issue of 5mill XYZ Bhd’s shares of RM1 valued at RM3 each and the balance in cash of RM5m. Other acquisition charges totalled RM18000. What is the cost of the investment?
Changes in the cost of Investment(Interest-bearing investment) • Example: investment in loan stock and bond • Reduce by; • inflows of interest and dividend from the investment (pre-acquisition vs. post-acquisition interest and dividend) • Amortisation of premium (if purchase at premium) • Increase by: • Amortisation of discount (if purchase at discount • The reduce cost is regarded as recovery cost
pre-acquisition vs. post –acquisition of interest and dividend • Interest; • Pre-acquisition: interest received for the period before acquisition of investment • Post-acquisition : interest received for the period after acquisition of investment • Dividend from: • pre-acquisition profit vs. post –acquisition profit • pre-acquisition: treated as recovery cost (reduce investment cost) • post –acquisition: as an income (crediting IS)

(D)DETERMINING CARRYING AMOUNT AND TREATMENT OF CHANGES IN VALUE • 4 basis • Lower of cost and market value • Market value • Cost basis • Revaluation basis • Selection of the basis depend on the classification of the investment (current or long-term) • Can be managed by; • Aggregate portfolio-huge number of investment • Category of investment • Individual – for few investment
Current investment • Valued at • Market value basis; or • LCM • The carrying amount is determined either: • On an aggregate portfolio basis • by category of investment, or • On an individual investment basis • MIA and MICPA recommend LCM basis
Long-term investment • Valued at • Cost basis; or • Revalued amount; or • LCM (for marketable securities) determined on an aggregate portfolio basis • MIA and MICPA recommend the cost basis
LCM BASIS • Suitable for current investment • Provides prudent- recognised losses immediately, but unrealised gain are not • Accordance with the historical cost principle • Under LCM, investment are recorded at costs and written down to market value
Treatment under LCM basis • For current Investment • all losses are charged to IS; and a) If managed by category/portfolio • Create a provision account • Individual investment remains at cost • Journal entry: Dt. Loss or reduction in value a/c (IS) xx Cr. Provision for reduction in value (BS) xx b) If manage by individual • Reduce the cost of investment • Journal entry: Dt. Loss or reduction in value a/c (IS) xx Cr. Investment (BS) xx
Treatment under LCM basis • For long-term investment • Managed by aggregate portfolio basis • Losses/reduction in value are not charge in IS • It should be accounted for through equity by debiting other reserves (revaluation reserves of other investment or assets) • Journal entry: Dt. Reserves xx Cr. Investment portfolio (BS) xx
Treatment for reversal • why reverse? When market value as at BS date in subsequent period is greater then the cost • Need to reverse the value back to cost • Current investment; • Credit to income Dt. Investment xx Cr. Reversal for previous reduction (IS) xx • Long-term Investment • Include in equity (cr. back to reserve a/c) Dt. Investment portfolio a/c xx Cr. reserve a/c xx (Reversal for previous reduction)

MARKET VALUE BASIS • Only applicable for current investment • Re-value every end of period • Any changes (decrease/increase) in carrying amount must be consistently included in income or Revaluation Reserve • Not recommended for Malaysian practices
COST BASIS • Suitable for long-term investment • Carried at cost of acquisition • Revalue: if; • Permanent decline- charged to income immediately • Temporary decline – no adjustment
Factors for permanent and temporary decline: Permanent decline: • Judge by market price • Investee’s net assets and results • Expected cash flow from investment • Risk, and type and extent of interest in investee Temporary decline: • Decline in market price by general downward market trend
Treatment and disclosure Disclosure • Treated as part of the ordinary expenses • Disclose separately if material Journal entry: Dt. Permanent decline (IS) xx Cr. Investment a/c xx
REVALUATION BASIS • Only for long-term investment • Represents a modification to historical cost principle • Upward revaluation is restricted to the net tangible asset value of the investee • Prevent the use of market prices, as they would: • Result in parent company’s reserves > group’s reserves
Revaluation Reserve Rule • Surplus • Should be credited to revaluation reserve (RR) • Subsequent deficit • is charge against the RR to the extent of the balance available • Shortfall: charge to income statement • Journal entry: 1) Dt. Investment a/c xx Cr. Revaluation reserve xx 2) Dt Revaluation reserve xx Dt deficit in revaluation (under IS) xx Cr. Investment a/c xx
Revaluation Reserve Rule • Deficit • Charge to Income Statement • Subsequent surplus • Credited to income (limit: equal to previous deficit) • Balance credited to RR • Journal entry: 1) Dt. Deficit in revaluation (IS) xx Cr. Investment a/c xx 2) Dt Investment a/c xx Cr Surplus in revaluation (under IS) xx Cr. Revaluation reserve xx

(any revaluation reserve should be reversed on the transfer) • Transferred at the carrying amount, if current investment are being carried at market value (any revaluation reserve should be transferred to income) • Current to long-term • Should be transferred at whatever carrying amount on the date of re-classification
(F) DISPOSAL OF INVESTMENT • Gain or loss should be calculated • Net proceeds vs. carrying amount = gain/loss • Gain/loss should be credited / charged to income • Disclosure; • Treated as part of the ordinary expenses • Disclose separately if material • Previously revalued: remaining RR transferred to R/E
Journal entry • Gain: Dt. Cash xx Cr. Investment xx Cr. Gain (IS) xx • Loss: Dt. Cash xx Dt. Loss (IS) xx Cr. Investment xx • Transfer of RR Dt. Revaluation Reserve xx Cr. Retained Earnings xx
