Study Notes
Non-Current Assets (Part II)
- Non-current assets are discussed, including impairment and those held for resale.
- Connolly Chapter 10 (IAS 36) covers impairment.
- Connolly Chapter 20 (IFRS 5) covers non-current assets held for resale and discontinued operations.
- IAS 36 covers impairment of assets excluding cash-generating units (CGUs).
IAS 36 Impairment of Assets (Excluding CGUs)
- Impairment is a sudden drop in a non-current asset's value beyond normal wear and tear/depreciation.
- Impairment occurs due to changes in the asset or its operating environment.
- An asset is impaired when its carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount.
- Recoverable amount is the higher of value in use and fair value less costs to sell.
- Value in use considers future cash flows.
- Fair value considers market value or binding sale agreements.
Identifying Impairments
- Impaired assets require recognizing an impairment loss.
- This process involves identifying impaired assets, which uses external and internal sources of evidence.
- Relevant standards concerning impairment losses are mentioned (e.g., section 10.1, 10.2).
Recognition (P.289-290)
- Impairment losses are recognized in the statement of comprehensive income (as part of profit or loss) for the period.
- If a previous revaluation surplus exists, this impacts equity recognition.
- Depreciation is adjusted, often needing to revise the remaining useful life of the asset.
Impairment Examples
- Examples illustrate how to calculate impairment amounts impacting the statement of comprehensive income and financial position for 2019. Calculations use data like initial cost, depreciation schedule, and estimated future value and market values.
Reversal of Impairment Loss (P.303)
- Reversal should not increase an impaired asset's value beyond what it would have been had no impairment occurred.
- Any reversal is shown in the statement of comprehensive income (as an increase to profit) unless the initial impairment loss was already reflected in other comprehensive income (OCI).
- Depreciation charges adjust based on the new carrying value.
IFRS 5 - Non-Current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations
- IFRS 5 deals with non-current assets classified as held for sale, as well as discontinued operations.
- Non-current assets are categorized as 'held for sale' when they're more likely to be sold than used, with expected recovery through sale, rather than ongoing use.
- Conditions include immediate marketability, predicted sale within a year, and unlikely withdrawal from sale. Management commitment, active sale measures, and a high probability of sale are crucial.
Assets Held for Sale (P.500)
- Assets held for sale are measured at the lower of carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell.
- Impairment losses are recognized in the statement of comprehensive income.
- Assets should be classified correctly to avoid issues concerning depreciation or amortization.
IFRS 5: Measurement Example
- A specific example details how to calculate the carrying amount of a machine and its impact on financial reporting on a specific date (December 31, 2019).
IFRS 5 – Discontinued Operations
- Discontinued Operations are components of an entity that are either disposed of or classified as held for sale.
- They could be a separate business line/geo area, or part of a planned disposal.
- Key characteristics include a separate major line of business, a geographically-distinct area, or a subsidiary used mainly for resale.
IFRS 5: Presentation and Disclosure
- Financial statements (FS) must show discontinued operations' after-tax profit/loss.
- Separate disclosure is required in notes to the financial statements, which analyze the component into revenue, expenses, costs, and tax.
