INVESTMENTS

Learning Objectives
• Identify financial assets and financial liabilities.

• State the classifications of financial assets and their initial


and subsequent measurements.

• Explain how fair value is measured.

• Account for investments in equity securities.


Financial instruments
• Financial instrument is “any contract that gives rise to a
financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or
equity instrument of another entity.” (PAS 32)
• Financial instruments include both financial assets and
financial liabilities.
• Financial instruments include equity instruments of
another entity but exclude an entity’s own equity
instruments. An entity’s own equity instruments are neither
assets nor liabilities, but rather equity.
Financial assets
A financial asset is any asset that is:

a. Cash;

b. Equity instrument of another entity; or


c. Contractual right to receive cash or another financial asset
or to exchange financial instruments with another entity
under conditions that are potentially favorable.
Financial liabilities
A financial liability is any liability that is:

a. a contractual obligation to deliver cash or another financial


asset to another entity; or

b. a contractual obligation to exchange financial instruments


with another entity under conditions that are potentially
unfavorable.
Initial recognition and Classification

• Financial assets are recognized only


when the entity becomes a party to the
contractual provisions of the instrument.
Basis of classification

Financial assets are classified based on:


1. the entity’s business model for managing the
financial assets; and
2. the contractual cash flow characteristics of the
financial asset.
Basis of classification
Equity vs. Debt instruments

• Only debt instruments can be classified under the


Amortized Cost or FVOCI (mandatory) measurement
categories.

• Equity instruments are measured at FVPL, unless the entity


makes an irrevocable election on initial recognition to
measure them at FVOCI.

• A debt instrument that is not measured at amortized cost or


at FVOCI is measured at FVPL.

Fair Value Measurement
• Fair value is “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.” (PFRS 13)

• Fair value is based on the market price of the asset in a:


a. principal market; or
b. the most advantageous market (in the absence of a principal
market)

• The market price used in measuring fair value is not adjusted


for any transaction costs, but is adjusted for any transport
costs.
