    CHAPTER 12 Debt Financing

    A.Definition of liabilities

    1. Must be the result of past transactions or events.

    : Thus, contractual obligations from an exchangeof promises if performance by both parties is stillin the future are not recognized as liabilities.

    2. Probable transfer of assets (or services) must bein the future

    B.Classification of Liabilities

    Current Liabilities

    1. Payable within 1 year

    2. Reported at maturity value

    Non Current Liabilities

    C. Measurement of Liabilities

    1. Liabilities that are definite in amount:2. Estimated liabilities:3. Contingent liabilities:

    D. Accounting for a bond

    There are three main considerations in accounting

    for bonds:

    1. The issuance of bonds2. Interest during the life of the bonds.3. The retirement of bonds either at maturity or prior

    to the maturity date.

    The Issuance of bonds

    1. Bonds sell at price plus accrued interest.2. Bonds are typically stated in terms of a

    percentage of face value.(e.g., a bond at 97 or a bond at 103)

    3. Bond discounts are recorded as contra accountsto Bonds Payable (Issuer) and Investment in

    Bonds (Investor).4. Bond premiums represent adjunct accounts whichincrease Bonds Payable (Issuer) and Investmentin Bonds (Investor).

    $700,000 of 12% bonds. Interest of $42,000 is payablesemiannually on June 30 and December 31. The bondsmature in three years [an unrealistically short maturity toshorten the illustration]. The bond was sold at faceamount.

    Debt Issue Costs

    o Include legal and accounting fees, printing fees, andregistration and underwriting fees.

    Interest (When Bonds are Issued at a Premium orDiscount)

    1. The periodic interest payments made by the issuerare not the total interest expense.

    2. An adjustment to interest expense (amortization)associated with the cash payment is necessary toreflect the effective interest being incurred on thebonds.

    Effective Interest Method

    The amount of interest to be recognized each periodis computed at a uniform interest rate (the market /effective rate)

    The amount paid is determined by stated rate(coupon rate)

    Difference between the amount paid and thecompound interest expense is reflected asamortization of discount or premium

    Straight-Line Method

    the recognition of an equal amount of

    premium or discount amortization for eachperiod

    The amount paid is determined by statedrate (coupon rate)

    Interest expense is the balanced amount of

    the amount paid and the recognition ofpremium or discount

    3. Both methods result in the same amount of totalinterest expense over the life of the bond.

    4. Interest expense is increased by discountamortization and decreased by premiumamortization.

    5. If an accounting period ends between interest dates,interest should be accrued.

    Extinguishment of Debt Prior to Maturity

    When debt is retired prior to maturity, a gain or lossmust be recognized for the difference between the

    carrying value of the debt and the amount to satisfythe obligation

    Convertible Bonds

    Bonds that provide for their conversion into some othersecurity at the option of the bondholder

    Generally they are permitted to be exchanged forcommon stock

    There are two ways to account for the issuance ofconvertible bonds

    Debt and equity not separated (U.S. GAAP) Debt and equity separated

    Convertible Bonds (Detachable)

    The Issuer of the bonds and the stock warrants isrequired to allocate the joint issuance price betweendebt and equity instrument.

    500 ten-year bonds, face value $1,000, are sold at 105, or

    a total issue price of $525,000 (500$1,000 1.05). Thebonds contain a conversion privilege that provides forexchange of a $1,000 bond for 20 shares of stock, parvalue $1. The interest rate on the bonds is 8%. It isestimated that without the conversion privilege, the bondswould sell at 96.

    U.S. GAAP vs. IASB

    U.S. GAAP:

    Despite of theoretical support for the separation ofdebt and equity, common practice follows FASBASC Section 470-20-25, which designates all ofthe proceeds as belonging to the bond alone: nonseparation between debt and equity

    IASB: IAS 32 No distinction between Nondetachable vs.

    Detachable Proceeds should be allocated to debt and equity:

    Separation between debt and equity

    Accounting for Conversion

    Should we recognize gain and loss as the part of theconversion process or not?

    If convertible security is viewed as equity, then theconversion is not significant transaction: no gainor loss is recognized

    If convertible security is viewed as debt, then theconversion would seem to be a significanttransaction: gain or loss recognized

    Recognizing gain or loss would seem to bereasonable, but no recognition of gain or loss iswidespread practice.

    Accounting for Conversion

    HiTec Co. offers bondholders 40 shares of HiTec Co.common stock, $1 par, in exchange for each $1,000, 8%bond held. An investor exchanges bonds of $10,000(carrying value as up to date for both investor and issuer,$9,850) for 400 shares of common stock having a marketprice at the time of the exchange of $26 per share. Theexchange is completed at the interest payment date.

    E. Fair Value Option

    1. SFASNo. 159allows a company to report, at each

    balance sheet date, any or all of its financial assetsand liabilities at their fair market value on the balancesheet date.

    2. Why? The FASB reasoned that the objective is toimprove financial reporting by providing entities withthe opportunity to mitigate volatility in reportedearnings.

    Example:

    Lily Kay Company has one asset, a Lusvardi CompanyBond that it purchased (on the day it was issued) asinvestment and one liability, one of its own bonds thatLily Kay issued to finance the purchase of Lusvardi

    Company Bond investment.

    Both bonds have the same terms: $1,000 face value, 20year life, 10% coupon rate, and single interest paymentsmade at the end of each year, 10% of market interestrate when they were issued.

    3. To pervent companies from using fair value option toenhance reported earnings selectively, SFAS 159requires a company to designate whether it is usingthe fair value option with respect to a financial asset or

    financial liability when the initial transaction to createthe item occurs

    F. Off-Balance-Sheet-Financing: procedures to avoiddisclosing all debt on the balance sheet in order to makethe companys financial position look stronger.

    1. Operating vs. Capital leases

    In excess of 90% of all leases are accounted foroperating leases in which no obligation to makefuture lease payments is reflected in thebalance sheet

    2. Unconsolidated subsidiaries FASB statement No. 94 requires all majority-

    owned ( greater than 50%) subsidiaries to beconsolidated

    Companies still can avoid reporting debtassociated with subsidiaries that are less than50% owned

    3. Variable Interest Entities (VIEs), formerly calledSpecial-Purpose Entities (SPEs): no debt would berecorded in sponsors balance sheet.

    Example:

    Sponsor Company requires the use of a building

    costing $100,000. Sponsor facilitates the establishmentof VIE Company. VIE Company is started with a$10,000 investment from a private investor along with a$90,000 bank loan. VIE then leases the building toSponsor (carefully crafted to qualify as an operatinglease).

    4. Joint venture: 50:50 joint venture will be accountedunder equity method. No debt of joint ventures will berecorded in a parent companys balance sheet

    Reasons for Off-Balance-Sheet Financing Allow a company to borrow more than it otherwise

    could due to debt-limit restriction Lower borrowing cost, e.g., lower cost of capital

    (interest rate)
