  5. Major projects—financial crisis continued 5

  6. TimetableOne project – three phases 6 * The above is in addition to a project on derecognition of financial instruments. ED Derecognition was published in March 2009. 2008 IASC Foundation  |   30 Cannon Street  |   London EC4M 6XH  |   UK  |   www.iasb.org

  7. Overview of classification model for financial assets only 7 Amortised cost (one impairment method) Basic loan features FVO for accounting mismatch (option) + Managed on a contractual cash flow basis Tentative decision – reclassification to be required when business model changes • All other instruments: • Equities • Derivatives • Some hybrid contracts • … Fair Value (No impairment) Equities: OCI presentation available (option) 2009 IASC Foundation  |   30 Cannon Street  |   London EC4M 6XH  |   UK  |   www.iasb.org

  8. Current state:Incurred loss impairment IAS 39 requires an incurred loss approach for financial assets What does that mean? Impairment loss only recognised when: Trigger (loss) event occurs Impact can be reliably estimated Consequence: Expected losses not recognised before trigger events 8 2008 IASC Foundation  |   30 Cannon Street  |   London EC4M 6XH  |   UK  |   www.iasb.org

  9. Impairment Exposure DraftExpected cash flow approach Main features: interest revenue is recognised on the basis of expected cash flows (including initial expected credit losses) impairment results from an adverse change in credit loss expectations reversal of impairment loss when expectations change favourably re-estimation of expected cash flows each period end 9 2008 IASC Foundation  |   30 Cannon Street  |   London EC4M 6XH  |   UK  |   www.iasb.org

  10. Hedging – Broad direction Consider using cash flow hedge accounting mechanics for fair value hedges Gains and losses on effective portion recognised in OCI Hedged item not remeasured ‘Lower of’ test NOT to be used for fair value hedges Simplify cashflow hedge accounting methodology Phasing: broad hedging model first then consider portfolio hedge accounting and net investment hedging 10 2008 IASC Foundation  |   30 Cannon Street  |   London EC4M 6XH  |   UK  |   www.iasb.org

  11. Project to replace IAS 39Next steps 11 • During 2010: • IASB to complete replacement of IAS 39 by issuing final guidance on: • impairment • derecognition* • hedge accounting • financial liabilities November 2009: IASB publishes ED on impairment of financial assets 1 January 2014: Expected mandatory effective date for Phase II impairment Q4/2009: IASB to issue final IFRS on classification and measurement of financial assets IASB to publish ED on hedge accounting 1 January 2013: Expected mandatory effective date for Phase I classification and measurement *separate project 2008 IASC Foundation  |   30 Cannon Street  |   London EC4M 6XH  |   UK  |   www.iasb.org

  12. Financial statement presentation Tatsumi Yamada, IASB member

  13. MoU projects 13

  14. Presentation objectives Financial statements should: Portray a cohesive financial picture Relationships are clear, statements are complementary Disaggregate information so that it is useful in assessing the amount, timing, and uncertainty of future cash flows Common sections and categories, more line items Present information about liquidity and financial flexibility Ability to meet financial commitments and invest in business opportunities 14

  15. Key features of the proposed approach Management approach to classification Single statement of comprehensive income Current OCI treatment retained Current tax allocation retained Direct method for presenting operating cash flows Reconciliation schedule Reconciliation of SCF and SCI Separate identification of remeasurements 15

  16. Redeliberation decisions (IASB to Oct) Liquidity and flexibility should not be core objectives Cohesiveness not required at line item level Disaggregation both by function and nature Retain discontinued operation presentation Retain financing section (consisting of debt and equity). Categories in the business section (investing and operating) and definitions being revised. 16

  17. Redeliberation decisions (IASB to Oct) Require information about net debt Net debt = financing section less resources available to service those liabilities Statement of cash flows: present cash flows using direct method only significant operating cash flows Reconciliation schedule replace it with an analysis of the changes in balances of all significant asset and liability line items. 17

  18. Other key decisions for the boards Cohesiveness Application to 2 or 3 statements Presentation of statement of financial position Disaggregation Overall principle and segment reporting Statement of comprehensive income Disaggregation of remeasurements information Basket transactions Single line or disaggregation Presentation of net debt information 18

  19. Revenue recognition Prabhakar Kalavacherla (PK), IASB member

  20. MoU projects 20

  21. Project objective 21 • To converge, simplify, and clarify the principles for recognising revenue across various industries • Improvements to financial reporting: • Remove inconsistencies and weaknesses • Provide a robust framework for resolving issues • Improve comparability • Simplify preparation

  22. Overview of proposals 22 • Single revenue recognition model for contracts with customers • Revenue recognised when a performance obligation in the contract is satisfied • a performance obligation is satisfied when a good or service has been transferred to the customer, which is when customer obtains control of the good or service • Amount of revenue recognised is the amount of the transaction price allocated to the performance obligation Revenue depicts the transfer of goods and services to the customer, not necessarily the activities of the entity

  23. Recent decisions: Control Proposals Entity recognises revenue when it transfers goods or services to the customer Transfer of good or service depends on when customer obtains control of it 23 • Recent decisions • Definition of control: the present ability to direct the use of and receive the benefit from the good or service • Indicators of control: • Payment / legal title / ability to sell / physical possession/ customisation / continuing involvement Not abolishing continuous revenue recognition for many construction contracts

  24. Recent decisions: Allocating the transaction price Proposals Transaction price allocated to individual performance obligations on a relative standalone selling price basis Standalone selling price estimated if good/service not sold separately 24 • Recent decisions • When goods and services are transferred continuously, transaction price allocated to contract segments rather than to individual performance obligations • A contract segment includes one or more performance obligations for which the entity has evidence of a market—ie evidence that a segment could be sold separately

  25. Fair value measurement guidance Wei-Guo Zhang

  26. Major projects—financial crisis continued 26

  27. Project overview 27 When? IAS 39 IAS 41 IFRS 3 IFRS 5 ... How? IFRS on fair value measurement guidance • does not introduce new fair values • does not change the measurement objective in existing IFRSs

  28. What does ‘fair value’ mean? 28 28 28 • Proposed definition in exposure draft The price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date • an exit price (directly or indirectly) • a current price (as of the measurement date) • the transaction takes place between market participants (it is market-based, not entity-specific)

  29. Overview of the proposals 29 Core principle Guidance and other requirements The asset or liability Application to assets, liabilities and equity Fair value at initial recognition The transaction Valuation techniques Market participants Inputs to valuation techniques Fair value hierarchy The price Disclosures

  30. Milestones 30 Nov/Dec 2009 Nov 2006 Oct 2008 May 2009 2010 Round-table meetings (USA, Japan, UK) IFRS Discussion paper (using SFAS 157 as a basis for forming preliminary views) Expert Advisory Panel report Measuring and disclosing the fair value of financial instruments in markets that are no longer active Exposure draft
