effective-interest method of amortizing bond discount and bond premium Key Points 15-72 As indicated in Chapter 11, in general GAAP and IFRS define liabilities similarly IFRS requires that companies classify liabilities as current or noncurrent on the face of the statement of financial position (balance sheet), except in industries where a presentation based on liquidity would be considered to provide more useful information (such as financial institutions) When current liabilities (also called short-term liabilities) are presented, they are generally presented in order of liquidity Under IFRS, liabilities are classified as current if they are expected to be paid within 12 months Key Points 15-73 Similar to GAAP, items are normally reported in order of liquidity Companies sometimes show liabilities before assets Also, they will sometimes show non-current (long-term) liabilities before current liabilities Under both GAAP and IFRS, preferred stock that is required to be redeemed at a specific point in time in the future must be reported as debt, rather than being presented as either equity or in a “mezzanine” area between debt and equity The basic calculation for bond valuation is the same under GAAP and IFRS Key Points IFRS requires use of the effective-interest method for amortization of bond discounts and premiums GAAP allows use of the straight-line method where the difference is not material Under IFRS, companies not use a premium or discount account but instead show the bond at its net amount For example, if a $100,000 bond was issued at 97, under IFRS a company would record: Cash 97,000 Bonds payable 15-74 97,000 Key Points 15-75 The accounting for convertible bonds differs across IFRS and GAAP, Unlike GAAP, IFRS splits the proceeds from the convertible bond between an equity component and a debt component The equity conversion rights are reported in equity Both Boards share the same objective of recording leases by lessess and lessors according to their economic substance—that is, according to the definitions of assets and liabilities However, GAAP for leases is much more “rules-based” with specific brightline criteria (such as the “90% of fair value” test) to determine if a lease arrangement transfers the risks and rewards of ownership; IFRS is more conceptual in its provisions Rather than a 90% cutoff, it asks whether the agreement transfers substantially all of the risks and rewards associated with ownership Looking to the Future The FASB and IASB are currently involved in two projects, each of which has implications for the accounting for liabilities One project is investigating approaches to differentiate between debt and equity instruments The other project, the elements phase of the conceptual framework project, will evaluate the definitions of the fundamental building blocks of accounting The results of these projects could change the classification of many debt and equity securities In addition to these projects, the FASB and IASB have also identified leasing as one of the most problematic areas of accounting A joint project will initially focus primarily on lessee accounting 15-76 IFRS Self-Test Questions The accounting for bonds payable is: a) essentially the same under IFRS and GAAP b) differs in that GAAP requires use of the straight-line method for amortization of bond premium and discount c) the same except that market prices may be different because the present value calculations are different between IFRS and GAAP d) not covered by IFRS 15-77 IFRS Self-Test Questions Under IFRS, if preference shares (preferred stock) have a requirement to be redeemed at a specific point in time in the future, they are treated: a) as a type of asset account b) as ordinary shares (common stock) c) in the same fashion as other types of preference shares d) as a liability 15-78 IFRS Self-Test Questions The leasing standards employed by IFRS: a) rely more heavily on interpretation of the conceptual meaning of assets and liabilities than GAAP b) are more “rules based” than those of GAAP c) employ the same “bright-line test” as GAAP d) are identical to those of GAAP 15-79 Copyright “Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Inc All rights reserved Reproduction or translation of this work beyond that permitted in Section 117 of the 1976 United States Copyright Act
