c. (continued)
Note that the difference between the cost and FV-NI methods is
one of timing. Under FV-NI measurement, the $16,250 increase in
value since acquisition was reported in net income in 2023 and
2024. Under the cost method, recognition of the increase in value
is deferred until it is realized in 2025. Under the FV-OCI approach
without recycling, the gain is recognized only in comprehensive
income, never in net income.
d.
Under ASPE, the company would have to choose between the cost
method and the FV-NI method.
The FV-NI method must be used for equity instruments that trade
in an active market and therefore have an active market price (as
is the case here), and for derivatives. The cost/amortized cost
method is used for all other investments and would not be used
here.

If, however, the company determines that the default risk on the
investment has significantly increased, then the company must
look at lifetime expected credited losses. Therefore, the company
would consider all possible default events over the life of the
instrument.

Situation 1 would use the fair value impairment model.
Situation 2 would use the fair value model. However, since
there is no recycling under IFRS for equity investments, the
investment would simply be revalued to fair value with the loss
booked to OCI and never recycled to income. Therefore, there is
no need to perform any impairment testing.

Holmes is required to apply the FV-NI method to account for its

Even though Holmes has significant influence over the operations
of Nadal Corporation, ASPE allows Holmes to choose the cost
method instead of the equity method. However, if Nadal’s shares
are actively traded in the market, the cost method cannot be used
and Holmes will need to choose between the FV-NI method and
the equity method.

A financial analyst is interested in assessing the current
performance of the investor company management and what the

d. (continued)
Under the FV-NI method, the shares in the investee are adjusted to
their current market value, but the investor has made the decision
to hold the shares. They are not “for trading.” In addition, the
investor’s share of the dividends paid by the investee increase the
investor’s income even though the investee may have incurred
losses. Alternatively, the investee could be profitable, but not pay
any dividends to the investor, so what is reported on the
investor’s income statement does not correspond to the influence
the investor has had on investee company operations. The FV-NI
method, however, does recognize in the income statement and the
SFP, through the FV adjustment, the market’s assessment of how
the investee’s current operations affect its value to the investor.

c.
Because the associate’s long-term prospects have deteriorated,
this situation is likely one of impairment rather than a temporary
decline.
In this case, the impairment loss should be measured and
recognized at December 31, 2023 as follows:
Investment recoverable amount = $115 X 3,000 shs. = $345,000
Carrying amount of investment:
$438,000 - $33,000 + $45,000 - $3,600 = 446,400
Impairment loss = $101,400
Entry:
Loss on Impairment.................................. 101,400
Investment in Associate …………. 101,400
d.
Given that senior management obtains a bonus based on net
income, it would appear that management’s motivation is to inflate
the share value such that no impairment would be warranted.
Management’s argument is that the initial assessment was overly
pessimistic; however, this argument is likely due to management’s
desire to obtain a bonus.
Unless management is able to substantiate the higher share price,
an impairment loss must be recorded for $101,400 as in c.
Although we may feel pressure to appease our boss, we cannot
act unethically by not recording an impairment where one exists.

Problem 9.2
Purpose— the student is required to prepare during-the-year and year-end entries
for debt and equity trading securities, accounted for using the FV-NI model.
Problem 9.3
Purpose—the student is required to prepare transactional and adjusting entries for
debt securities accounted for using the amortized cost model and then accounted
for using the FV-NI model. Bond premium amortization is also involved.
Problem 9.4
Purpose—the student is required to prepare journal entries for the sale and
purchase of equity securities accounted for under the FV-OCI model along with the
year-end adjusting entry for unrealized gains and losses. They are also asked to
indicate how all balances are to be reported on the financial statements.
Problem 9.5
Purpose—to provide the student with an understanding of the reporting problems
associated with equity securities accounted for under the FV-OCI model. The
problem includes purchases, dividends, sales, and year-end adjustments to fair
values. Statement presentation is required, including the reclassification adjustment
out of other comprehensive income. Students are asked to determine how the net
income in two years would differ if the entity applied ASPE and used the cost
method.
Problem 9.6
Purpose—from successive SFP carrying amounts, the student is required to
prepare entries for a bond investment accounted for using the amortized cost
method and then the FV-NI model.
Problem 9.7
Purpose—the student is required to prepare transactional and adjusting entries for
FV-OCI debt investments, along with an amortization schedule. Students also
journalize the sale of the investment.
Problem 9.8
Purpose—the student is required to distinguish between the existence of a bond
premium or discount. The student is also required to prepare the adjusting entries
at two year-ends for FV-OCI debt investments.
Problem 9.9
Purpose—the student is required to prepare during-the-year and year-end entries
for FV-OCI debt investments and to explain how the entries would differ if the
securities were classified at cost / amortized cost.
Problem 9.10
Purpose—to provide the student with an opportunity to record interest and
amortization on a debt investment over three fiscal years as well as record fair
value adjustments using the FV-OCI method. The problem also includes the
disposal of the debt investment. Comprehensive financial statement preparation for
the three-year period is included as a requirement to the problem. Finally, the
student must summarize the overall results of the investment.
Problem 9.11
Purpose—to provide the student with an opportunity to record interest and
amortization of a bond premium for a bond purchased between interest dates as
well as a non-interest-bearing note. The cost of the bond must first be adjusted for
the portion of interest accrued between interest dates. The student must determine
the proper accounting and reporting for each investment. The student must also
record the year-end adjustment for fair value and the disposal of the bond and note.
Problem 9.13
Purpose—to provide the student with an understanding of the proper accounting
treatment for equity securities accounted for using the FV-OCI model and the
resulting effect of a sale of an investment and the reclassification of realized gains
and losses to retained earnings. The student is required to discuss the descriptions
and amounts that would be reported on the statement of financial position and
statement of comprehensive income with regard to these investments, plus prepare
any necessary note disclosures.
Problem 9.14
Purpose—the student is required to review entries made by an employee to
determine if they are in accordance with GAAP. If incorrect, correct entries are
required to be made. The student is also required to explain when the equity
method may or may not be appropriate.
Problem 9.15
Purpose—the student is asked to prepare entries for a company’s equity
investment in a 30% held company both on the basis that there is significant
influence and that there isn’t significant influence. The alternative method to be
applied is the FV-OCI under IFRS. They must also discuss and make entries for the
accounting method(s) that could be used under ASPE. The student must also
consider how the entries would be affected by a partial year ownership period for
the investment.
Problem 9.16
Purpose—students are required to work through their understanding of how the FV-
OCI method works and affects the statement of financial position and the statement
of comprehensive income. Critical thinking is needed here as students must
understand what each account represents in order to go back and prepare the
entries that must have been made. The student is then asked to explain how the
financial statements would differ if the investment had been accounted for at FV-NI.
Problem 9.17
Purpose—students are provided with an opportunity to work their way through a
situation that requires them to apply their knowledge of all methods of accounting
for investments introduced in the chapter. They begin with the presentation of
investments on the statement of financial position at the end of the preceding year
and work through the transaction and valuation entries through the year and are
required to determine what is reported on the year-end financial statements. Finally,
they are asked to explain to non-accountants what the balance in AOCI represents.

Income Statement
2023 2024
Why is this?
1.Dividends are recognized in income under both approaches, and
2.Under the cost method, the full amount of any realized gains or
losses are recognized in net income when the investments are
sold. Under the FV-OCI approach, the full amount of the realized
gains or losses may be transferred to retained earnings when the
investments are sold (no recycling).
d.
An investor is interested in assessing the prospects for future cash
flows. Under the FV-OCI approach, the investments are reported at fair
value which provides more relevant information than the amount paid
for the investments when they were acquired, as under the cost
method.
In addition, the unrealized gains and losses reported in OCI tell the
investor how well the enterprise managed its portfolio of investments
during the period i.e., whether management increased or reduced the
potential for future cash flows. The FV-OCI approach reports in OCI the
unrealized gains and losses on the investments as they occur rather
than waiting until they are sold and reporting the total and final change
in value only at that point.

Brooks has significant influence and should apply the equity method.
No fair value adjustments are recorded under the equity method.
d.
Under parts a. and b., if Brooks Corp. was a private entity following
ASPE, then the Norton Industries shares would have to be accounted
for using FV-NI (since ASPE does not have an FV-OCI option).
However, if the Norton Industries shares were not actively traded and
there was no active market price available for the shares, then Brooks
could also account for the shares at cost.
Under part c., ASPE permits the investor to account for shares in a
significantly influenced company to be accounted for using the equity
method or at cost. However, if the shares of Norton Industries were
actively traded, then the cost method is not permitted and the FV-NI
method is.
e.
The 20%-50% holding is a guide only. It is up to the entity to determine
if significant influence exists; specifically, does the entity have the
power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of
the entity whose shares it owns. If the other shares are widely held, for
example, an 18% interest could result in significant influence. On the
other hand, if one other party owned the other 55% of the shares, a
45% interest might not enable the investor to have any influence at all.

PROBLEM 9.14
Entry 1
The proposed entry is in accordance with applicable reporting
standards (IFRS in this case since the company is a public
company). The difference between the net proceeds from the sale
of a trading equity security and its carrying amount represents the
realized gain or loss. Any transaction costs on this disposition
have been expensed in the period because the net proceeds have
been used to determine the investment gain on disposal.
Entry 2
The November 26, 2023 entry to record the purchase of Mer
Limited common shares is not in accordance with IFRS. Brokerage
fees for trading investments accounted for using the FV-NI model
must be expensed and cannot be included in the cost of the
investment. The following entry should have been made:
a. (continued)
Entry 3
The proposed entry is not in accordance with IFRS. The amount of
$3,000 represents the excess of the cost of equity investments of
$819,000($615,000 + $204,000) over the fair values totalling
$816,000 ($611,000 + $205,000). IFRS requires that the carrying
amount of a portfolio of trading investments be reported at fair
value at the reporting date. Adjustments to fair value are recorded
at each reporting date and should be the difference between the
investments’ carrying amount and its current fair value, not its cost
and fair value. These adjustments are included in the
determination of net income for the period and need to be
separated from the amount that is reported in OCI, such as the
adjustment on the Admin Importers shares. In addition, an
allowance account might be used in situations where there is an
impairment of an amortized cost investment, but it is not
appropriate for the fair value adjustments of FV-NI and FV-OCI
investments.
a. (continued)
Entry 4
As Fellows Inc. has indicated, it exercises significant influence
over Yukasato Inc. (25% ownership), and its investment requires
using the equity method of accounting. Accordingly, the dividends
received from Yukasato are treated as a reduction of Fellows’
investment in Yukasato. The remaining dividends are correctly
recognized as dividend revenue. The correct entries as at
November 30, 2023, are as follows:
Cash.............................................................. 13,500
Dividend Revenue................................. 13,500
Cash.............................................................. 25,000
Investment in Associate ........................ 25,000
a. (continued)
Entry 5
The entry for recording Fellows’ share of Yukasato’s reported net
income, under the equity method, is in accordance with IFRS.
There is, however, an entry missing for the amortization of the
excess of purchase price over carrying amount of the assets of
Yukasato.

c.
To be accounted for using the FV-OCI model, the investment under

c. The answer to part a. would remain the same. The entries do not
relate to a particular time frame but rather reflect cash dividends
as income received in December and show the investment at fair
value at the reporting date.
c. (Continued)
For part b., the two entries that record the proportionate share of
the associate’s net income and the depreciation of the
undervalued assets would need to be pro-rated to reflect a half-
year of ownership. The general concept is that you can only earn
income on assets from the point in time that you own/control them.
The entry to record dividends would be the same as the dividends
were paid in December 2023.
d.
If Melbourne Corp. was a private entity following ASPE, and did
not have significant influence, then the investment in Noah Corp.
shares would be accounted for using the cost method. Because
the shares are not actively traded, it is unlikely the FV-NI method
would be chosen. ASPE does not recognize the FV-OCI method.
e.
Financial Statement Amounts Reported
ASPE Choices from d.
The cost method has some support when the investor cannot
significantly influence the policies of the investee. Because the investor
cannot control or even influence in any real way the paying of dividends
to the investor, no income should be reported as earned until received.
This is consistent with the revenue recognition principle when there are
collectibilty issues. However, if possible, the estimated fair value of the
investment would be useful information for users.

The same holds true for the closing SFP at December 31, 2023.
The investments will be described as FV-NI investments, and
because they are measured at the same fair value that the FV-OCI
classified investments were, the total shareholders’ equity must be
the same amount as well: $380,000. Because the contributed
capital is not affected, the retained earnings would be $380,000 -

account which adjusts net income to arrive at comprehensive income.
The OCI account is closed out to a SFP account called Accumulated

CASES
See the Case Primer on the Student Website as well as the summary case primer
in the front of the text.
Case Overview:
ICL is a private company owned by 10 doctors and created for the purpose of
investing. Therefore, there is no legal constraint or requirement to use GAAP. The
bank, who is looking at lending the company money, might want GAAP statements
since they are relevant and reliable. The owners may also want GAAP statements
so that they can assess stewardship of the two managers. Under GAAP, the
company may follow ASPE or IFRS. The bank may want one or the other. Both will
be considered in the analysis.
As the accountant, you will want to provide the bank with useful information in order
to secure the loan required to expand the company’s investment holdings.
Issue: ICL owns 15% of IA’s outstanding shares. Given this ownership interest,
ICL is permitted to appoint one of IA’s three board of director members. One of
ICL’s shareholders has been hired as a consultant by IA to support its day-to-day
operations. ICL is unclear as to how long it wishes to hold this investment, but two
ICL shareholders wish to hold it for the long term.
Issue: ICL purchased 25% of IB shares to be held for two months. The fair value of
the shares is available.
Under ASPE, IB would be carried at cost for the same reasons as IA above. Under
IFRS, IB would be carried at fair value (as noted above using either FV-NI or FV-
OCI). Note that these are preferred shares. Therefore, the shares would not be
accounted for under the equity method.
Recommendation: Given that the intention is to resell the shares in the near term,
FV-NI method makes the most sense. The fair value is known, making it easy to
measure.
Issue: ICL purchased 25% of IC shares two years ago. IC is heavily involved in
R&D activities related to drug development. An IC drug with $10 million invested in
R&D activities was recently not approved in the USA for use. Most of the $10
million was capitalized in IC’s statements.
Analysis:
This is likely a significant influence investment since there is a 25% ownership
interest. However, the actual interrelationship of ICL’s management and board with
the management and board of directors of IC needs to be considered before
making this decision. It appears that there is an impairment in the value of this
investment. If the $10 million is written off by IC, ICL’s share value is $2.5 million.
Using the equity method as required under IFRS, this would wipe out the carrying
value of the investment and may create a liability. Even though IC’s financial
statements will not be prepared for another two months, this information must be
considered. It would appear this is a non-temporary decline, since it affects a drug
that was meant to provide 50% of the profits of the company going forward.
Consequently, impairment testing should be performed.
Case Overview:
CC is a conglomerate with investment in many companies. A financial analyst will
want to ensure that the accounting treatment reflects the true nature of the
business relationship and that it assists in predicting future cash flows, which are
used in valuing a company.
Net income is down substantially ($42 million lower than prior year), even though
revenues are up 15%. This requires further investigation, specifically confirming
that aggressive accounting has not been used to mitigate the impact of the loss.
IFRS is a constraint since this is a public company.
Note that all the investments appear in line with the company’s main business of
operating in the telecommunications industry and unless otherwise noted, would be
assumed to be long-term investments.
Issue: CC owns 15% of the shares and all the convertible and subordinated
debentures of Australia TV. The convertible debentures are convertible into shares
that would represent 50% of the company’s total issued shares at the time of
conversion. As a result, the investment in Australia TV yields a distribution that is
equivalent to 57.5% of all distributions paid by Australia TV. CC also has a
contractual right to be represented on the board of directors and has appointed
three of the board’s 12 members.
CA 9.2 CC (CONTINUED)
Issue: CC has tried to influence control through its investment in Ulster TV. CC
has been unsuccessful and does not hold a seat on the board of directors, even
though it has almost a 30% equity interest in Ulster TV. Therefore, the equity
method of accounting is not appropriate. The accounting issue is whether this
investment should be carried at fair value with changes in value being recognized in
net income, or whether changes in value should be recognized through OCI.

performance of Ulster TV, then
including changes in its FV would
introduce “noise” to the net income
number that is not warranted.
Recommendation: Given that it appears CC does not have any effect on Ulster
TV’s performance and its future prospects at this point, changes in FV would be
better reported outside of net income through OCI.
Issue: There is currently a 5% investment in Bonds which are being carried at cost.
During the year similar risk bonds in the marketplace are yielding 6%.
- The bond investment would be carried at amortized cost where the intent is
to hold to contractual maturity and the instrument is debt-like. This appears
to be the case since the investment is structured as a bond with interest
payments. There is no indication of the intent of management, so this needs
to be determined.
- For investments carried at amortized cost, IFRS would require IIL to use the
expected loss model to determine impairment. More specifically,
management needs to determine whether the credit risk of the investment
has significantly increased. If not, a 12-month timeframe would be used to
assess defaults. Otherwise, defaults would have to be considered over the
lifetime of the investment.
- In this case, the change in interest rate in the marketplace is not significant
enough evidence of impairment since the change appears to be due to
general economic factors in the marketplace and not specific problems
related to this instrument. Moreover, it is difficult to determine if the credit risk
change is significant or not. The evidence is vague as to whether there is
objective evidence of a decline in value.
- If the investment was recorded as FV-OCI, management would have to use
the fair value impairment model. It is not likely that FV-NI would be used
since there is no indication of management’s intent to hold the bonds for the
short term only.
Recommendation: Do not write down the value of the bonds based on the
current evidence.
- The company has a choice under IFRS to classify these shares as FV-NI or
FV-OCI. This is an accounting policy choice.
- If IIL chooses FV-OCI, this is an irrevocable election. The amounts in OCI
are not subsequently transferred to net income.
- If IIL chooses FV-NI, all gains and losses will flow through net income and
introduce volatility.
- There is no need to worry about impairment for this asset since it is already
adjusted to fair value with the gains/losses being allocated to income. The
fair value model is used for FV-NI investments. Therefore, no separate
impairment testing is performed since the assets are continually revalued to
fair value. The accounting policy choice (FV-NI or FV-OCI) will affect the
accounting for impairment on a going forward basis, however.
Should IIL decide to account for the investment using FV-OCI, impairment
testing would not be performed since impairment losses on equity
investments are not recycled to net income.
- The company has a choice under IFRS to classify these shares as FV-NI or
FV-OCI. This is an accounting policy choice.
- If IIL chooses FV-OCI, this is an irrevocable election. Amounts in OCI are
not subsequently transferred to net income, this includes impairment losses.
- If the company chooses FV-OCI, all gains and losses will be reported
outside of net income. It looks like the investment may be declining in value,
but the controller believes this is ‘temporary.’
- If the company chooses FV-NI, all gains and losses will be reported as part
of net income. Since the controller’s intention is to sell the shares as soon as
a 10% return on investment is achieved, it would be preferable to account for
the investment at FV-NI so that the realized gain is included in net income.
INTEGRATED CASES
The equity analyst will use the financial statements for financial analysis,
particularly to determine the economic performance of the company and its new
strategy. Specific questions that the equity analysts would like answered include:
Has the new strategy provided opportunities for increased cash flows to
investors in the future?
Is the company earning more on these investments than the investors could
if the cash had been distributed to them directly?
The analysts will want the financial statements to be prepared with transparency
and based on substance over legal form.
Other users include EMI's shareholders and board of directors. These users will
review the financial statements to evaluate management, in addition to the
prospects for future cash flows.
EMI is a public company. Therefore, it must use GAAP for the preparation of the
financial statements in accordance with IFRS for financial reporting purposes.
ASPE is not an option; however, references to ASPE have been included for
information and comparative purposes.

Recommendation: EMI should consolidate its investment in ABC due to its ability
to control ABC's resources despite not having legal control. Under consolidation,
the combined assets of ABC and EMI would be shown on the consolidated
statement of financial position. 100% of ABC’s net assets would be included and a
noncontrolling interest would be shown in Shareholders’ Equity to recognize the
portion of net assets not owned by EMI.
Issue -EMI has invested excess cash into corporate bonds with a face value of
$100,000, for $94,758 at the beginning of the year. The bonds pay a 6% semi-
annual interest rate and provide an effective interest rate of 8% over three years.
The bonds mature on January 1, 2027. At the annual board meeting, management
had stated its intention to hold these corporate bonds as an investment for earning
income, even though management has purchased similar corporate bonds in the
past for short-term profits and continues to do this with its existing bonds

The accounting policy choice for the investment in Sinofert requires judgment to
be applied by management. As described in Note 15, Nutrien Ltd. does not have
any representation on the board of directors of Sinofert. Despite having over
20% ownership, a percentage that can commonly be indicative that significant
influence exists, this investment is more appropriately accounted for using fair
value. In order to have significant influence over an investee, there must be
factors such as board representation, inter-company transactions, etc., present.
As pointed out in the note, this does not exist. FVTOCI is deemed to be more
appropriate than FVTPL (FV-NI) due to the management’s intention to hold this
investment over the long term.
In Note 25, Nutrien Ltd. provides information about an acquisition from 2019
related to Ruralco. The key information in this presentation is related to the fair
value adjustments on each of the acquired assets and liabilities. The company
reports that a thorough review and assessment was completed with
independent experts involved in the process. Normally, this kind of review and
assessment would be done upon the acquisition of the assets and liabilities.
While the company does not indicate that there were any shortfalls or lack of
assessment at time of acquisition, there was a preliminary assessment. The
timing of when the fair value assessment was being carried out likely carried
over into 2020.
as these are often done for long term value creation. Any information that
provides the user insights into the types of assets and resources acquired that
will contribute to future value creation would be of high relevance to the user.
c. There are 15 entities listed under Note 30 in the Basis of Consolidation section.
These organizations are located across various counties including Canada, US,
Australia, and Trinidad. The company also provides information about the
principal activities of each entity.
Nutrien Ltd. fully consolidates the entities as of the date that control is acquired
and continues until control ceases. Intercompany balances and transactions are
eliminated on consolidation.
The benefit of the expected loss impairment model is that impairment losses
(or the reversal of losses) are recognized sooner under this model, which improves
the quality of the information. Transparency is improved with this model since users
are provided with information as soon as it is available rather than only at the end of
the period. The weakness of the expected loss model is that it is both costly and
difficult to consistently measure the estimated future cash flows from an investment.
IFRS requires that all instruments valued at cost/amortized cost and debt
investments carried at FV-OCI use the expected loss model as opposed to the
incurred loss model, primarily because this model provides more transparent
information to users.
ASPE uses the incurred loss model for all investments measured at
cost/amortized cost.

Part E: (Continued)
1. For the amount to be collected for the corporate suite, the wording in the
question suggests that Posh Hotels would have accrued 4 months of rental
income as follows:
Accounts Receivable (4/12 X $45,000) $15,000
Service Revenue $15,000
An additional issue relates to the service (rental) revenue. The revenue should
not be recorded unless it is realizable. When expecting $45,000 as a
prepayment on July 1, Posh Hotel would have expected payment. Later with
the bankruptcy and “allowing the tenant to stay to the end of October” the
amount of revenue is still questionable because at that point they know it won’t
be the full year’s $45,000. Certainly, by year end they know the realizable value
is $10,000 and that should correspond to the AR (gross less allowance or just
net). This raises the issue of whether the revenue on the income statement
should be $15,000 or only $10,000, with loss on impairment of only $17,525.
We end up with 3 alternative answers based on the following journal entries:
Alternative 1:
Loss on Impairment $5,000
Allowance for Expected Credit Losses $5,000
To set up an allowance for the uncollectible portion
Alternative 2:
Service Revenue $5,000
Accounts Receivable $5,000
To write-off a portion of the receivable since the revenue is known not to be
realizable at year end. This also does not overstate receivables
Alternative 3:
Loss on Impairment $5,000
Accounts Receivable $5,000
To write off a portion of receivables to bad debts expense since the company is
in bankruptcy proceedings (approach used in the solution)
All 3 approaches create the same net realizable value on the SFP and the
same net impact on the income statement. Alternative 3 is preferable over
Alternative 1, because it does not overstate accounts receivable.
