  2. IAS 39 Versus FAS 133 www.trinity.edu/rjensen/acct5341/speakers/133glosf.htm#Disclosure Under IASC international disclosure rulings, financial statements should include all of the disclosures required by IAS 32, except that the requirements in IAS 32 for supplementary disclosure of fair values (IAS 39 Paragraphs 77 and 88) are not applicable to those financial assets and financial liabilities carried at fair value (Paragraph 166).  The following should be included in the disclosures of the enterprise's accounting policies as part of the disclosure required by IAS 32 Paragraph 47b:

  3. IAS 39 Versus FAS 133 www.trinity.edu/rjensen/acct5341/speakers/133glosf.htm#Disclosure (1) the methods and significant assumptions applied in estimating fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities that are carried at fair value, separately for significant classes of financial assets (see IAS 39 Paragraph 46)2) whether gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of those available-for-sale financial assets that are measured at fair value subsequent to initial recognition are included in net profit or loss for the period or are recognized directly in equity until the financial asset is disposed of; and3) for each of the four categories of financial assets defined in paragraph 10, whether 'regular way' purchases of financial assets are accounted for at trade date or settlement date (see paragraph 30)

  4. IAS 39 Versus FAS 133 www.trinity.edu/rjensen/acct5341/speakers/133glosf.htm#Disclosure IAS 39 Paragraph 169 With the exception of the previously noted differences, Paragraph 169 is a long paragraph that requires virtually all disclosures of FAS 133.

  5. FAS 133 DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS Required disclosures can be divided into four types: • qualitative disclosures • quantitative disclosures • disclosures relating to OCI and AOCI • U.S. SEC Risk Disclosure Requirements

  6. DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS (cont.) The Standard requires general derivative disclosures and specific hedge disclosures for cash flow hedges, fair value hedges and hedges of a net investment in a foreign operation

  7. DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS (cont.) • Disclosures are different from prior requirements • Systems may require enhancements to accumulate new information required to be disclosed • Additional qualitative disclosures are encouraged

  8. DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS ¶44-55QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES For all derivative instruments the entity shall disclose: • Objectives for holding derivatives • Context needed to understand those objectives • Entity’s risk management policy • Description of the items or transactions that are being hedged

  9. QUANTITATIVE DISCLOSURE • Fair Value Hedges • Cash Flow Hedges • Hedges of a net investment in a foreign operation

  10. QUANTITATIVE DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENTSFOR FAIR VALUE HEDGES ¶45(a) • Net gain or loss recognized in earnings during the reporting period from hedge ineffectiveness • Component of the derivatives gain or loss excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness

  11. QUANTITATIVE DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENTSFOR FAIR VALUE HEDGES ¶45(a) • Where the net gain or loss is reported • The amount of net gain or loss recognized in earnings when a hedged firm commitment no longer qualifies as a fair value hedge

  12. QUANTITATIVE DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS - CASH FLOW HEDGES ¶45(b) • Net gain or loss recognized in earnings during the reporting period from hedge ineffectiveness • Component of the derivative’s gain or loss excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness • Where the net gain or loss is reported

  13. QUANTITATIVE DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS - CASH FLOW HEDGES ¶45(b) (cont.) • Description of transactions or other events that will result in reclassification of gains and losses reported in accumulated OCI into earnings and net amount expected within next 12 months • Maximum length of time entity is hedging the variability in cash flows of a forecasted transaction

  14. QUANTITATIVE DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS - CASH FLOW HEDGES ¶45(b) (cont.) • Gains and losses reclassified into earnings from discontinuance of cash flow hedges because it is probable that the forecasted transaction will not occur

  15. QUANTITATIVE DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENTSHEDGES OF A NET INVESTMENT • For a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation, entities must disclose the net amount of gains or losses included in the cumulative translation adjustment during the reporting period

  16. DISCLOSURES RELATED TO OCI AND AOCI • Required to display as a separate classification within Other Comprehensive Income the net gain or loss on derivative instruments designated and qualifying as cash flow hedging instruments • As part of disclosures of AOCI, separately disclose the beginning and ending accumulated derivative gain or loss, the related net change, and the net amount of reclassification into earnings.

  17. TYPICAL INTEREST RATE EXPOSURES • Variable rate debt • Fixed rate debt • Prospective asset/liability purchases or sales • Interest associated with funding/investing in a non-functional currency

  18. TYPICAL CURRENCY EXPOSURES • Prospective currency transactions • Firm commitments • Currency components of prospective cashflows • Assets or liabilities denominated in a non-functional currency • Non-functional currency funding/investing

  20. TYPICAL COMMODITY EXPOSURES • Prospective purchase / sale • Inventory price risk • Firm commitment

  21. REPORTING TO SENIOR MANAGEMENTKeys to Success • Draft a risk management policy document that identifies exposures to hedge • Require traders to be explicit about choice of hedge strategy and tactics • Demand documentation as to rationale for adjusting strategies and tactics • Implement a control function that measures hedge performance against expected results.

  22. SEC REG. S-X & S-K Risk Disclosrueshttp://www.trinity.edu/rjensen/acct5341/speakers/133glosf.htm#Disclosure • a tabular format --- a presentation of the terms, fair value, expected principal or transaction cash flows, and other information, with instruments grouped within risk exposure categories based on common characteristics; • a sensitivity analysis --- the hypothetical loss in earnings, fair values, or cash; (the minumum percentage change seems to be 10% in Item 3.A of the Instructions to Paragraphs 305a and 305b.) • flows resulting from hypothetical changes in rates or prices; • value-at-risk --- a measure of the potential loss in earnings, fair values, or cash; • flows from changes in rates or prices.

  23. IFRS 7 Summary http://www.iasplus.com/standard/ifrs07.htm • Adds certain new disclosures about financial instruments to those currently required by IAS 32; • Replaces the disclosures now required by IAS 30; and • Puts all of those financial instruments disclosures together in a new standard on Financial Instruments: Disclosures.

  30. IFRS 7 Other Disclosures http://www.iasplus.com/standard/ifrs07.htm • If a gain or loss on a hedging instrument in a cash flow hedge has been recognised directly in equity, an entity should disclose the following: [IAS 7.23]   • The amount that was so recognised in equity during the period. • The amount that was removed from equity and included in profit or loss for the period. • The amount that was removed from equity during the period and included in the initial measurement of the acquisition cost or other carrying amount of a non-financial asset or non- financial liability in a hedged highly probable forecast transaction.
