Effective for years commencing after Jan.1 2014 A different standard is proposed for NPO’s

Active Exposure Drafts Consolidations V i bl l i i i Variable control entities - improvements to

presentation of assets and liabilities controlled by the enterprise

The tough situations:

What to do with long term contracts?What to do with long-term contracts? Percentage of Completion or Completed Contractp

Percentage of completion is used when f i f h i fperformance consists of the execution of more

than one act, and revenue would be recognized proportionately by reference to the performance of each act.

Completed contract generally only Completed contract generally only appropriate when there is a single act or estimation of progress towards completion cannot be madecannot be made.

What to do with sales with multiple deliverables? Section 3400 is usually applied separately to

each transaction. Th b i h h h i l There may be times though that a single transaction may involve multiple deliverables. The key is to determine if the sale is one or more thanThe key is to determine if the sale is one or more than

one transaction. Examples of single transactions with multiple

d li bl ld b i t h ithdeliverables would be equipment purchases with a maintenance contract or servicing contract.

Example 1:

Company A is a distributor of picture frames. It is currently selling a high-end frame that it

has never sold before, however, the product is similar to another that Company A usually sellssimilar to another that Company A usually sells.

The Company is selling 15 frames at a price of $30,000. Normal 30 day return period. For$30,000. Normal 30 day return period. For COD.

When should Company A recognize revenue?

Example 1 – Answer:p Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists

– no unusual arrangements and no continual i l dmanagement involvement noted

Delivery – the product has been delivered to the customerthe customer

Price is determinable – the price is set at $30,000. The only question is if an estimate$30,000. The only question is if an estimate for returns can be made?

Example 2:

fl d b d A 10 floor condo is being constructed. Company A is installing the hardwood floors. The total contract is $200,000 and 10 progress

billi f $20 000 ill b i d t ti O t 31/13billings of $20,000 will be issued starting Oct 31/13 and a final invoice issued of any additional costs or overruns.

It is now Dec 31/13 and the hardwood has been It is now Dec 31/13 and the hardwood has been installed and completed on 2 floors.

What method should be used and how much revenue should be recognized by Company A?should be recognized by Company A?

Note – this example does not considered how to account for costs or work-in-progress

Example 2 – Answer: There is a series of acts/milestones completion There is a series of acts/milestones – completion

of individual floors We are told that 2 floors are completed thus

progress of the milestone can be estimatedprogress of the milestone can be estimated As of Dec 31/13 – 3 progress bills have been

issued for a total of $60,000 (3 x $20,000)2 floors completed which represents 20% of the 2 floors completed which represents 20% of the total project of 10 floors or $40,000 of contract price (20% x $200,000)

$40 000 revenue should be recorded as of Dec $40,000 revenue should be recorded as of Dec 31/13. Based on performance/completion of work and not the billings issue.

Example 3:

Company A sells photocopiers. Company A also includes an option for

customers to buy an extended service plan. Company Z purchased the elite model copierCompany Z purchased the elite model copier

for $20,000 and purchased the extended service plan (3 years) for an additionalservice plan (3 years) for an additional $3,000.

When should Company A record revenue?

Example 3 - Answer: Example 3 Answer: The sale on the photocopier should be

recorded when delivered. Risks and rewards have transferred. Nothing to indicate otherwise. S l t d d i t t Sale on extended service contract With initial sale of photocopierOver three year period (contract term)

The answer is – over the three year period. H bl k d hi

Over three year period (contract term)At the end of the service contract (after three years)

InventoryInventory

Per Section 3031.11;

“The cost of inventories shall comprise all f h f i dcosts of purchase, costs of conversion and

other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location andinventories to their present location and condition.”

Costs of purchase:

Purchase priceImport duties and other non recoverable taxesImport duties and other non recoverable taxesTransportHandling costsAny other costs directly attributable to the

acquisition of the finish goods

Cost of conversion must include the following:Costs directly attributable to the units of

production such as direct labourproduction, such as direct labourA systematic allocation of fixed and variable

production overheads incurred in converting the t i l i t fi i h d d S lmaterial into finished goods. Some examples are:AmortizationMaintenance of building and equipmentCost of factory management and administration

Are these costs to be included or excluded from inventory?Storage costsOffice admin costsOffice admin costsCost of wasted materialsSelling costs

Impairmentsp Inventory Investments

bl Accounts Receivable Long-Lived Assets

Per Section 3031.27, there is impairment of inventory when:

“Th t f i t i t b bl if“The cost of inventories may not be recoverable if those inventories are damaged, if they have become wholly or partially obsolete, or if their selling prices have declined.”

Impairment of inventory C li bl lCost < net realizable value

Financial instruments (3856);

Investments held by investment companies (AcGInvestments held by investment companies (AcG-18)

Test for impairment:

At the end of each reporting period, an entity shall assess whether there are any indications that anassess whether there are any indications that an investment may be impaired. And;

A tit h ll d t i h th i ifi tAn entity shall determine whether a significant adverse change has occurred during the period in the expected timing or amount of future cash flows from the investment.

Indicators of impairment include:significant financial difficulty of the investee;it becoming probable that the investee will enter

bankruptcy or other financial reorganization;bankruptcy or other financial reorganization;the disappearance of an active market for shares of

the investee because of financial difficulties; and i ifi t d h i th t h l i la significant adverse change in the technological,

market, economic or legal environment in which the investee operates, or in the market to which an asset is dedicated (for example, a sharp decline in the price of a commodity that may cause economic instability in the investee's industry).y y)

When there is an indication of impairment, the carrying amount should be reduced to the higher ofcarrying amount should be reduced to the higher of the following:

(a) the present value of the cash flows expected to be ( ) p pgenerated by holding the investment, discounted using a current market rate of interest appropriate to the asset; and

(b) the amount that could be realized by selling the asset (b) the amount that could be realized by selling the asset at the balance sheet date.

The carrying amount of the investment shall be y greduced – and the amount recognized as an impairment should be recorded in net income.

Pre ASPE - Section 3020 “Accounts and Notes Receivable”

ASPE – Section 3856 “Financial Instruments”

Main guidance in previous standards was Section 3020.10;

“A i bl h ld b“An account or note receivable should be written off as soon as it is known to be uncollectable or should be written down to itsuncollectable or should be written down to its estimated realizable value as soon as it is known that it is not collectible in full.”

Under new section 3856.17

When an entity identifies a significant adverse change in the expected timing or amount of future cash flows from a financial asset, it shall reduce the carrying amount of the

t t th hi h t f th f ll iasset, to the highest of the following:

(a) the present value of the cash flows expected to be generated by holding the asset, discounted using a current market g y g , grate of interest appropriate to the asset;

(b) the amount that could be realized by selling the asset, at the balance sheet date; and

(c) the amount the entity expects to realize by exercising its right to any collateral held to secure repayment of the asset, net of all costs necessary to exercise those rights.

When to recognize?

An impairment loss shall be recognized when the carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not recoverable and exceeds its fair valuerecoverable and exceeds its fair value.

The carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not recoverable if the carrying amount exceeds therecoverable if the carrying amount exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from its use and eventual disposition. This assessment is based on the carrying amount ofassessment is based on the carrying amount of the asset at the date it is tested for recoverability, whether it is in use or under development.

If an impairment is recognized the adjusted i b h icarrying amount becomes the new carrying

amount.

For property, plant and equipment the impairment loss recognized cannot be reversed.

A long-lived asset shall be tested for recoverability whenever events or changes inrecoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable.

Cash flow test for recoverability

.18 “Estimates of future cash flows used to test the recoverability of a long-lived asset shall y ginclude only the future cash flows (cash inflows less associated cash outflows) that are directly associated with, and that are expected to arise asassociated with, and that are expected to arise as a direct result of, its use and eventual disposition. These cash flows include the principal amount of any liabilities included in theprincipal amount of any liabilities included in the asset group, but not interest that will be recognized as an expense when incurred.”

Grouping of assets:

For purposes of recognition and f i i l lmeasurement of an impairment loss, a long-

lived asset shall be grouped with other assets and liabilities to form an asset group at theand liabilities to form an asset group at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities.
