IFRS Overview 18

MCA clarifications on IFRS adoption

Presentation of comparativesOpening balance sheet prepared at 1 April 2011 and the financial statements for the year ending 31 March 2012 shall be in accordance with the converged accounting standards; but comparative period figures (I.e. for the year ending 31 March 2011) shall continue to be reported as per the non-converged accounting standards.

Option to present comparatives voluntarily (2010-2011)A company may however, voluntarily choose to report comparative period figures (I.e. for the year ending 31 March 2011) as per the converged accounting standards as an additional column in the financial statements. The opening balance sheet (and therefore transaction adjustments) for companies in such a case shall be 1 April 2010.

IFRS Overview 19

Voluntary adoption for Phase 2 and 3 companies- Phase 2 and 3 companies will have an option to early adopt the converged accounting standards, commencing on or after 1 April 2011- All other companies can also early adopt IFRS

If, subsequent to the adoption, the company does not meet the IFRS adoption criteria, should it discontinue IFRS?- Once a company follows the converged accounting standards it shall continue preparing financial statements in accordance with the converged accounting standards. It shall not revert to the non-converged accounting standards.

IFRS Overview 20

Applicability to group companies

- The criteria for determination of various phases shall be based on the stand-alone financial statements of various entities.- Companies having subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates or covered in any of the phases shall prepare consolidated financial statements in accordance with the converged accounting standards.- Group companies (subsidiaries, joint ventures or associates) not covered in the phases similar to the parent company shall continue to prepare financial statements according to the according to respective phases as applicable.- However, such companies may voluntarily adopt the converged accounting standards.

IFRS Framework

IFRS Overview 29

Key points

The IASB uses its conceptual framework as an aid to drafting new or revised IFRSs- Objective and elements of financial statements-Underlying assumptions and qualitative characteristics - Definitions

The framework is a key point of reference in the absence of specific guidance-Specific guidance in IAS 8 applies

IFRSs do not apply to items that are “immaterial” Transactions should be accounted for in accordance with their substance, rather than only their legal form.

IFRS Overview 30

Presentation of Financial Statements

IFRS Overview 31

Required Components of Financial Statements- Statement of Financial Position- Statement of Comprehensive Income- Statement of Chages in Equity- Statement of Cash flows- Notes

IFRS Overview 32

Identification of financial statementsMust be clearly identified and distinguished from other information in annual reportRequired disclosures - Name of the entity - Separate, individual or consolidated financial statements - Date of the end of the reporting period or period covered by the financial statements - Presentation currency - Level of rounding

Reporting Period Financial statements to be presented at least annually If shorted or longer period, disclose- Reason- Fact that amounts reported may not be comparableNo prohibition on 52-week period for practicality

IFRS Overview 33

IFRS Overview 52

Revenue recognition criteria

Common- Inflow of future economic benefits to entity is probable- Revenue is measurable reliably- Costs (incurred and expected) are identifiable and measurable reliably

Specific criteria for sale of goods- Significant risks and rewards of ownership transferred - Retain neither. managerial involvement; nor . effective control

IFRS Overview 53

Layaway sales

Recognize when goods are delivered

But:If experience indicates that most such sales are consummated, then recognize when- Significant deposit has been received- Goods are on hand, identified, ready for delivery

IFRS Overview 54

IFRIC: 13 Customer Loyalty Programs

IFRIC: 15 Agreements for the Construction of Real Estate

IFRIC: 18 Transfer of Assets from Customers

IFRS Overview 55

Scope

Addresses accounting for customer loyalty award credits- Granted to customers as part of a sales transaction- Can be redeemed in future for free or discounted goods or services

Include entities receiving consideration from a party other than the customer to whom it grants credits- Credit card companies are with in the scope

Excludes programs that grant the customer a financial asset or do not include a sales transaction

IFRS Overview 56

Issues

Whether award credits are:

- Separately identifiable component for which revenue should be deferred until awards are delivered (apply IAS 18.19) or

If separate component

- How much revenue to be allocated?- When should revenue be recognized?

IAS 11 or IAS 18?

IFRS Overview 61

Effective date and transition

Effective date - Annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2009- Earlier application permitted, and shall be disclosed

Transition- Retrospective application- In accordance with IAS 8 Accounting Policies, changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors

IFRS Overview 62

Revenue Vs principal

Revenue of the agent- Amount of commission- Plus any other amounts charged by the agent

Revenue of the principal

- Gross amount charged to the ultimate customer

IFRS Overview 63

Example:1 Company A operates an Internet site from which it will sells Company T's products. Customers place their orders for the product by making a product selection directly from the internet site and providing a credit card number for the payment. Company A receives the order and authorization from the credit card company, and passes the order on to Company T. Company T ships the product directly to the customer.

Company A does not take title to the product and has no risk of loss or other responsibility for the product. Company T is responsible for all product returns, defects, and disputed credit card charges. The product is typically sold for USD 175 of which Company A receives USD 25. In the event a credit card transaction is rejected, Company A losses its margin on the sale (i.e. the USD 25)

Should Company A revenue on a gross basis as USD 175 along with costs of sales of USD 150 or on a net basis as USD 25, similar to a commission?

Ans: Here company is an Agent, is not taking any risk.

IFRS Overview 64

IFRIC 18 – Transfer of Assets from Customers

Divergence in practice- Recognize contributed PPE at fair value or cost of nil?- Recognize credit as revenue immediately or over period of service / asset life?

Issues addressed by IFRIC 18 - Should asset be recognized by the entity receiving the transfer? At what amount?- How to account for the credit? Cash contributions?

Scope - Accounting by the entity receiving the transfer (contribution)

Effective date - Transfer of assets on or after 1 July 2009- Prospective application

- Rendering of services

- Construction contracts

IAS 11 vs AS 7

There is major difference the Exposure draft of AS 7 (revised 20xx), Construction Contracts and International Accounting Standard (IAS) 11, Construction Contracts, IFRIC 12, Service Concession Arrangements and SIC 29, Service Concession Agreements: Disclosures, except that the transactional provisions given in IFRIC 12 have not been given in the Exposure Draft of AS 7 (Revised 20xx), keeping in view that Accounting Standard corresponding to IFRS 1, First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards, will deal with same.

IFRS Overview 67

IAS 18 vs AS 9IFRS AS 9

Terminology used is 'Statement of financial position' and 'Statement of Comprehensive income'.

Different terminology is used, as used in existing laws e.g. term 'balance sheet' and 'Statement of profit & loss'

The transactional provisions given in SIC 31, IFRIC 13, IFRIC 15 regarding changes in accounting policy have not been given in the Exposure draft of AS 9 (Revised 20xx), since IFRS 1, First time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards, provides that transitional provisions in other IFRSs do not apply to a first time adopters transition to IFRSs, unless otherwise permitted in IFRS 1. It is noted that IFRS 1does not permit use of these transactional provisions. Accordingly, deleting or retaining the said paragraph would have the same effect. Transitional provisions given in IFRIC 18 have not been given in the Exposure draft of AS 9 (Revised 20xx), since the Accounting Standard corresponding to IFRS 1, First time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards, will deal with the same.

IFRS Overview 68

IFRS Overview 72

Definition and Scope

•Definition

–Tangible items•Held for production or supply of goods or services, or •Rental to others, or•For administrative purposes–Expected to be used during more than one period

•Scope: accounting for all PPE

–Unless another standard requires or permits a different accounting treatment

IFRS Overview 73

Recognition

•PPE is recognized as an asset when–Future economic benefits are probable, and –Cost can be measured reliably

•Criteria apply to all costs when incurred, including–Initial acquisition or construction costs–Subsequent costs (covered later)

•PPE is measured initially at cost

IFRS Overview 74

Cost of acquired or self-constructed assets

•Purchase price (including import duties and non-refundable purchase taxes)

–Less any discounts or rebates deducted–Less implicit interest in deferred payment–Plus borrowing costs in the case of “qualifying assets” (refer IAS 23)–Plus any other directly attributable costs

•Excludes abnormal amounts of wasted material, labour and other resources

IFRS Overview 75

Expenses not recognized as cost of PPE

•Feasibility assessment costs

•Costs of opening new facility

•Costs of introducing new product or service

•Costs of conducting business in new location or with new class of customer

•Costs of staff training

•Administration and other general overhead costs

•Costs incurred in using or redeploying an item

•Amounts related to certain incidental operations

•Costs incurred while construction is interrupted, unless certain criteria are met

IFRS Overview 76

Asset exchange transactions

•Cost of exchanged asset is measured at fair value unless–Exchange transaction lacks commercial substance, or

–Fair value of neither asset received nor given up can be measured reliably

•Fair value of asset given up is used, unless fair value of asset received is more clearly evident

•If not measured at fair value, then carrying amount of asset given up becomes new cost basis

IFRS Overview 77

Subsequent costs

•Subsequent costs are capitalized only if meet general recognition criteria–Future economic benefits are probable–Cost can be measured reliably

•Costs of day-to-day servicing are expenses as incurred

•Recognize cost of replacing part of PPE item when incurred

•Recognize major inspection cost as replacement

IFRS Overview 78

Parts of an item –“Component accounting”

•on initial recognition, allocate cost to significant parts of asset, including non-physical parts

• Separate depreciation of each “component”

Ship costs 150, useful life 10 yrs. Estimated docking cost 15, planned after 3 yrs.

IFRS Overview 79

Measurement after recognition

IFRS Overview 80

Depreciation

•Systematic allocation of cost to profit or loss over useful life

•Depreciable amount determined after deducting residual value

•Review at least at each balance sheet date–Residual value

–Useful life

–Depreciation method

•Changes are changes in estimate, so adjust current and future periods only

IFRS Overview 81

Revaluation model (1)

•Revalue regularly

•Revalue all assets of the same class

•To adjust accumulated depreciation at the date of the revaluation either:–Restate it proportionately with the change in the gross carrying amount of the asset, or

–Eliminate it against the gross carrying amount of the asset and restate the net amount to the revalued amount of the asset

IFRS Overview 82

Revaluation model (2)

•Revaluation increases credited to–Profit or loss to the extent they reverse previous revaluation decrease of that asset recognized in profit or loss–Otherwise, equity (revaluation surplus)

•Revaluation decreases debited to–Equity to the extent of any revaluation surplus in equity related to that asset

–Otherwise, profit or loss

•The revaluation surplus maybe transferred to retained earnings when the asset is derecognized or as it is used by the entiry

IFRS Overview 83

Example (1) Revaluation Model

•Company A owns a building with the initial cost of 1000, accumulated depreciation of 600. The fair value of the asset on the same date is assessed at 800•Entries to recognize revaluation of the asset should be:OPTION 1: PROPORTIONATE RESTATEMENT Dr Revaluation reserve 600

Cr Accumulated depreciation 600

Dr Building, cost 1,000

Cr Revaluation reserve 1,000

IFRS Overview 84

Example (2) Revaluation Model

•Company A owns a building with the initial cost of 1000, accumulated depreciation of 600. The fair value of the asset on the same date is assessed at 800•Entries to recognize revaluation of the asset should be:

OPTION 2: ELIMINATION AGAINST ASSET COST

Dr Accumulated depreciation 600Cr Building, cost 600

Dr Building, cost 400 Cr Revaluation reserve 400

IFRS Overview 85

IFRIC 1 Changes in Existing Decommissioning, Restoration and Similar Liabilities(1)

•Changes due to a change in–Estimated timing and amount of payments–Estimated amount of payments–Discount rate

•Added to / deducted from cost of underlying asset and depreciated prospectively over remaining useful life•Foreign exchange gains and losses may be recognised in profit or loss or adjusted against cost of PPE•Applies regardless of accounting policy (cost or revaluation model) but implementation varies•New obligations: in our view, accounting analogous to change in estimates

IFRS Overview 86

IFRIC 1 Changes in Existing Decommissioning, Restoration and Similar Liabilities(2)

•Cost model

–Changes in liability added/deducted from asset cost in current period

–No negative carrying amount possible; any excess recognised immediately in profit or loss

–Increase in carrying amount triggers consideration of impairment, including, if necessary, calculation of recoverable amount

IFRS Overview 87

IFRIC 1 Changes in Existing Decommissioning,Restoration and Similar Liabilities(3)

•Revaluation model- Change in liability does not affect valuation of asset (impact on valuation reserve)

- Changes in liability: indication that asset might have to be revalued.

IFRS Overview 88

Impairment assessment

IFRS Overview 89

Impairment loss recognition

•Recognize impairment loss as expense immediately

–Unless carried at revalued amount (treat as revaluation)

–Use “new” carrying amount to calculate future depreciation

•Refer to IAS 36 for impairment loss calculation

IFRS Overview 90

Derecognition

•Derecognize:–On disposal, or

–When no future benefits expected from use or disposal

•Difference between carrying amount and net disposal proceeds recognized as gain/loss in profit or loss

•Gains (or proceeds) are not classified as revenue

•Exception: when an entity routinely sells assets it has held for rental, it transfers them to inventory when they cease to be rented.

IFRS Overview 91

Compensation for impairment, loss or surrender

IFRS Overview 92

IAS 16 –Key learning points (1)

•Analyze costs carefully to determine what can be capitalised•Use cost or revaluation model to account for assets in the same class•Adjust changes in existing decommissioning, restoration and similar liabilities to cost of underlying asset:–Cost model: to asset cost in current period–Revaluation model: to revaluation surplus

IFRS Overview 93

IAS 16 –Key learning points (2)

•Allocate cost to significant components and depreciate separately•Depreciation method, useful life, residual value reviewed at each balance sheet date•Specific disclosure requirements for revalued assets •Should capitalize borrowing costs on “qualifying assets” in accordance with IAS 23 (R). The revised standard applies for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2009

IFRS Overview 94

IAS 16 vs AS 10

There is no major difference between the exposure draft of AS 10 (revised 20xx), property, plant and equipment and International Accounting Standards (IAS) 16, Property, plant and equipment and IFRIC 1, changes in existing decommissioning, restoration and similar liabilities except that the transitional provisions given in IAS 10 (revised 20xx), keeping in view that Accounting Standards corresponding to IFRS 1, First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards, will deal with the same.

IFRS Overview 95

Impairment of Assets

IFRS Overview 96

Cash-generating unit –Definition

•Determine recoverable amount for the individual asset if possible

•Apply the CGU concept if the asset does not generate cash inflows independent from other assets

•CGU is smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows that are largely independent from other (groups of) assets.

IFRS Overview 97

CGU –Factors to be considered

•Key factor: ability to generate independent cash inflows–If an active market exists for the output of an asset group, then it is a CGU even if the output is only sold to another division with the entity–The focus is on cash inflows, not net cash flows

•Consider how management makes decisions about continuing or disposing of assets / operations•Consider how management monitors operations

IFRS Overview 98

Goodwill

•Future economic benefits arising from assets that are not capable of being individually identified and separately recognized

•Does not generate independent cash flows

IFRS Overview 99

Indications of impairment

•External sources–Significant decline in market value

–Technological, market, economic, legal environment

–Increases in interest rates or rates of return

–Lower market capitalization than equity book value

•Internal sources–Evidence of obsolescence or physical damage

–Discontinuance, disposal, restructuring plans

–Asset performance declining or expected to decline

–Receipt from a dividend of a subsidiary, jointly controlled entity or associate when the carrying amount of the investment exceeds the share of underlying net assets (including goodwill) in the consolidated accounts or when the dividend exceeds total comprehensive income of the investee

IFRS Overview 100

Frequency and timing of testing (1)

•CGU to which goodwill has been allocated

•Intangible assets with an indefinite useful life

•Intangible assets not yet available for use

IFRS Overview 101

Frequency and timing of testing (2)

•Recent calculation can be used if the following criteria are met:–CGU did not change substantially

–Most recent recoverable amount was significantly greater than carrying amount

–Analysis of events and circumstances –no elimination of the difference

Note: A recent calculation can only be used in the case of intangible assets with an indefinite useful life and cash-generating units to which goodwill has been allocated

IFRS Overview 102

Recoverable amount

•Recoverable amount is the greater of:–Value in use (VIU): present value of estimated future cash flows to be derived from an asset/CGU (continuing use and ultimate disposal)

–Fair value less costs to sell (FVLCS): amount obtainable from the sale of asset/CGU in an arm’s length transaction less costs of disposal

•If FVLCS is determinable, then not required to measure VIU or test at CGU level when:–an asset’s FVLCS is higher than the carrying amount; or

–an asset’s FVLCS can be estimated to be close to VIU (e.g. asset held for disposal)

IFRS Overview 106

Key learning points

•IAS 36 covers impairment of PPE, goodwill, intangible assets and investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates

•Detailed impairment testing generally is required only when there is an indication of impairment

•Annual impairment testing:–Intangible assets not yet available for use

–Intangible assets with indefinite useful life

–Goodwill

•Recognize impairment loss

IAS 36 vs AS 28

IFRS Converged StandardTerminology used is 'Statement of financial position' and 'Statement of comprehensive income'

Tax base

● The tax base of an item is the amount attributed to that item for tax purposes

● Tax base of an asset: - Amount deductible for tax purposes when the asset is recovered - Example: Interest receivable of 100 (carrying amount) Related interest revenue are taxed on a cash basis Tax base is nil

IFRS Overview 121

Tax base (continued)

● Tax base of liability: - Carrying amount less any amount that will be deductible for tax purposes in

respect of that liability - Example: Loan payable of 100 (carrying amount) Repayment of the loan has no tax consequences Tax base is 100

● Immediately after receiving the loan- Accounting: carrying amount = 0 - Tax: tax base = 20

● Taxable temporary difference:- (0-20)=20● Deferred tax liability

IFRS Overview 126

Deductible temporary difference – Situation 1

● Revaluation of PPE for tax purposes 100 - Accounting treatment: no revaluation recognized - Tax treatment: tax deductible in future years through tax depreciation

● At period end - Accounting: carrying amount = 0 - Tax: tax base = 100

● Deductible temporary difference: 0-100= -100● Deferred tax asset

IAS 12 Vs. Converged AS 22

IFRS Converged StandardTerminology used is 'Statement of financial position','Statement of Comprehensive income' and 'authorization of financial statements for issue'

Different terminology is used as used existing laws e.g. term 'balance sheet' is used instead of 'Statement of financial position', 'Statement of Profit or loss' is used instead of 'Statement of comprehensive income' . Words 'approval of the financial statements for issue' have been used instead of 'authorization of financial statements for issue' in the contest of financial statements considered for the purpose of events after the reporting period.

IAS 12 requires presentation of tax expense (income) in the separate income statement, where separate income statement is presented.

Such requirements have been deleted. This change is consequential to the removal of option regarding two statement approach in AS 1 (Revised 20XX). AS 1 (Revised 20XX) requires that the components of profit or loss and components of other comprehensive income shall be presented as a part of the statement of profit and loss.

The transitional provisions given in SIC 21 and SIC 25 regarding changes in accounting policy have not been given in the Exposure Draft of AS 22 (Revised 20xx), since IFRS 1, First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards, provides that transitional provisions in other IFRSs do not apply to a first-time adopter's transition to IFRSs, unless otherwise permitted in IFRS 1. It is noted that IFRS 1 does not permit use of these transitional provisions. Accordingly, deleting or relating the said paragraph would have the same effect.

Example 1

Company A reported pre-tax accounting income of 90,000, but due to temporary differences arising in the year, taxable income is only 50,000. Assuming a tax rate of 40%, statement of comprehensive income should report net income of:a) 70,000b) 40,000c) 30,000d) 54,000

Example 3

With respect to deferred taxes:1. Deferred tax liability and assets must be offset if the entity has a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets, they relate to taxes levied by the same tax authority and the entity intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously;2. Deferred tax assets and liabilities have to be discounted.

IFRS 1 vs Converged AS 41 (1)

IFRS Converged StandardIFRS 1 First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards was first issued by the International Accounting Standards Board in June 2003 and thereafter has been amended many times to accommodate the changes to other relevant IASs and IFRSs and the first time Accommodation required arising from those changes. For the purposes of Ind-AS 41, the IFRS 1 as restructured and issued in 2008 has been used as the basis and updated to reflect subsequent amendments up to November 2009 excluding the amendments so far as they relate to changes arising from instruction of IFRS 9 – Financial Instruments

To that extent Ind-AS 41 reflects only the current set of provisions and exemptions and does not present all the evolution

IFRS Overview 154

IFRS 1 vs Converged AS 41 (2)

IFRS Converged StandardGenerally, there is only one transition date for a country transitioning to IFRS.IFRS 1 defines transitional date as beginning of earliest period for which an entity presents full comparative information under IFRS. It is this date which is the starting point for IFRS and it is on this date the cumulative impact of transition is recorded based on assessment of conditions at that date

In India, as the converged IFRS standards become applicable in a phased manner it is expected that Ind-AS 41 would be available to each company considering its relevant transition date.Ind-AS41, however provide an entity with a choice to either consider the beginning of the current period or the comparative period as the transition date. Thus, the transition date has been defined as the beginning date of financial year on or after 1April 2011 for which an entity presents financial information under Ind-AS in its first Ind-AS financial statements but where an entity voluntarily decides to provide a prior period comparatives in accordance with Ind-AS then the date of transition would be the beginning of the earliest period for which an entity presents for full comparative information under Ind-AS in its first Ind-AS financial statements i.e. beginning of financial year on or after 1 April 2010. Arising from this fundamental change, there are other consequential changes to Ind-AS 41. For example, disclosures required under paragraph 21 and reconciliations under paragraphs 24 to 26 Ind-AS 41 have been modified to accommodate this option available under Ind-AS 41. The relevant Implementation Guidance and illustrative examples have been appropriately modified to reflect the option provided to transitioning entities.

IFRS Overview 155

Key Learning Points

● IFRS 1 sets out all transitional requirements and exemptions available on the first-time adoption of IFRSs● An opening statement of financial position is prepared at the date of transition of IFRSs● Accounting policies are chosen from IFRSs in effect at the end of the first IFRS reporting period ● A number of exemptions are available ● At least one year of comparative information must be presented ● First-time adoption of IFRSs may be reported in annual or interim financial statements

IFRS Overview 163

One more Secondary Ledger for IFRS (Adjustment)

We need to maintain two ledgers. One ledger (Primary ledger) for GAAP and another ledger (secondary ledger) for IFRS. Define a new ledger for IFRS as a secondary ledger with type as adjustment. With this we are mainly doing adjustment entries for IFRS reporting (detailed reporting).

IFRS Overview 164

Example (from Insurance domain)

Please find below the details of the IFRS ledger:1. The IFRS ledger will contain the Chart of accounts structure and values as per IFRS requirement.

2. Transactions shall be accomplished in the specific sub ledgers like AP, AR from which they shall be transferred to the primary ledger (as per GAAP).

3. The account balances then shall be transferred to IFRS ledger from the primary ledger, where users will pass manual entries to make adjustments in accounts balances from one account to another as per IFRS requirement.

IFRS Overview 165

Continue (1)

The above points can be understood through an Insurance Industry example: Case Study - In case of Insurance, IGAAP just asks for a consolidated premium booking amount to be booked in the premium revenue account, while in IFRS it needs to be bifurcated into three heads - premium main(50%), premium mortality charges(25%) and premium bid charges(25%) Thus when we book a receivable Invoice of Rs 100 in AR the accounting entry to IGAAP ledger would be:

Receivable Dr 100To Premium Revenue Cr 100

IFRS Overview 166

Continue (2)

These balances would then be transferred to IFRS ledger, where the user shall pass the following manual adjustment:

Premium Revenue Dr 50 To Premium mortality charges Cr 25 To Premium bid charges Cr 25

Effect in IFRS Ledger :

Receivable Dr 100

To Premium Revenue Cr 50 To Premium mortality charges Cr 25 To Premium bid charges Cr 25

Introduction

Oracle EBS standard model is mostly similar to US GAAP, in this chapter we are discussing about US GAAP and IFRS.

In the fall of 2008, the SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission (US)) published a discussion road map for the adoption of IFRS by US public companies in which early IFRS adopters could file as soon as 2011, and regular filing under IFRS would begin in 2014. In March 2010, the SEC announced that in 2011 they would consider accepting IFRS into the US Financial Reporting system if certain readiness conditions were met and IFRS and US GAAP had reached convergence by mid 2011. This would mean that 2015 might be the earliest possible date for IFRS reporting.

IFRS Overview 170

From a system view point the following lists are important:

• Financial Statements

• Revenue Recognition

• Lease Accounting

• Financial Instruments

IFRS Overview 171

“Comprehensive Income,” a proposed modification to IAS 1.

In the area of financial reporting, the Boards published a series of proposals that requiremore disclosure, in particular distinguishing operating and investment assets andrequiring the use of direct cash flow reporting.

Regarding Revenue Recognition, there are proposals to replace US GAAP revenuerecognition and IFRS revenue recognition (IAS 18) with a PerformanceObligation model. The proposal is not yet definitive, and the Boards have not yet agreedon a final proposal for public review.

According to this Oracle EBS follows mostly US GAAP. Once finalize the changes more changes will effect on application.

IFRS Overview 172

In the area of Lease Accounting, the proposals clarify the difference between long-term financing of assets and short-term rental of assets. While neither Board is keen on the current standards, the existing standards in US GAAP and IFRS are quite similar. It is anticipated that a proposal will be published in the summer of 2010.

Regarding financial instruments, the Boards are deep in consultation with the financial industry, regulators, and authorities around the world to determine the best way to value and report on complex financial instruments and transactions. Both Boards have published standards and proposals covering elements of this topic, but the overall position is not definitive, and the community is not in agreement on what is generally acceptable.

IFRS Overview 173

Background

Over 12,000 companies in a hundred countries have successfully adopted IFRS. They include countries in the European Union (EU), China, Australia, Russia, South Africa, Brazil and Chile. India, Canada, and Japan will adopt IFRS starting in 2011. The US joins Mexico in adopting IFRS within the next few years, thereby completing theworldwide adoption.

IFRS Overview 174

CHALLENGES OF TRANSITIONING TO IFRS

Although there will be significant challenges along the way, the transition to IFRS will bring considerable benefits to worldwide businesses. A single set of global accounting and financial reporting standards applied consistently will not only increase comparabilityfor investment purposes and reduce accounting complexity, but it will also increase the competitiveness of companies and capital markets. As with any significant change, companies will need to plan for it to address challenges and obstacles.

IFRS Overview 175

Impact of the Differences between US GAAP and IFRS

From an operational point of view, the post-Convergence differences between IFRS and US GAAP remain substantial. IFRS are statements of principles and do not include the detailed guidance that is a hallmark of US GAAP.

A company reporting under IFRS is likely to recognize a different amount of revenue, expense and income than it did under US GAAP. Certain assets and liabilities have different recognition and measurement criteria. Disclosure rules are different and thereare more disclosure data points. In some cases, a business model implicitly based on US GAAP will produce different results under IFRS and will need to be changed.

IFRS Overview 176

Implications of the Time-line

It appears that American companies will have a two-step transition to IFRS. Around 2013 or 2014, US GAAP will implement the Convergence standards (“Convergence”), and around 2015 and 2016, adoption of IFRS (“Adoption”) will occur.

In June 2010, the FASB and IASB wrote to the SEC, G20 and others suggesting the establishment and discussion of the timing implications of Convergence. Nothing has been decided at this time.

IFRS Overview 177

Geographic Variances in Accounting Compliance

IFRS are standards that define shareholder reporting for a complete enterprise, both domestic and overseas. While the standards have been adopted worldwide for public company shareholder reporting, not all countries have adopted them for private company reporting. In fact, some 30 countries actually disallow the use of IFRS for subsidiarystatutory reporting.During the migration period, many companies may have to simultaneously comply with three regulations: local statutory, US GAAP and IFRS. There will likely be three channels of transaction data:• In the US, where no statutory reporting is required, certain IFRS data will be captured in the subsystems.• In countries where IFRS is permitted for statutory filing, local general ledgers will be IFRS compliant. However, consolidation adjustments and currency conversion will still be necessary.• In countries where IFRS is not permitted for statutory filing, local compliance might be the daily operational routine and the accounts from such subsidiaries may need substantial conforming adjustments – as companies do today with their non-GAAP subsidiaries.

IFRS Overview 181

Oracle Enterprise Performance ManagementOracle Hyperion Financial Management (HFM) helps organizations align the processes for collecting financial results, operating results, and sustainability information in response to investor demands for increased disclosures of both financial and non-financial metrics. HFM streamlines the collection, consolidation, and reporting of financialand non-financial information. The result is more control and consistency over financial and non-financial reporting, improved data integrity and audit trails, as well as savings in time, effort, and costs.HFM supports standardized consolidation and reporting processes in compliance with US GAAP, IFRS, and local statutory requirements. It provides inter company eliminations,multi-currency translations, and minority interest calculations, delivering them quickly andcost-effectively out of the box. HFM is comprised of entity structures which define the group structure, i.e., the management or statutory hierarchies of reporting units and a chart of accounts hierarchy, which maintains the relationship or roll-up of account lines used in management and statutory reporting.

Oracle Governance, Risk, and Compliance

Oracle Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) Applications provide a central documentation repository that aligns any changes to the business processes and the corresponding control policies to IFRS. Organizations can manage IFRS compliance documentation with the same platform they would use to manage compliance with SOX or environmental compliance regulations.

Specific IFRS features will be examined, such as Componentized Assets. In addition, this chapter will discuss the dual accounting and reporting capabilities of EBS.

History of E-Business Suite Support for IFRS

Oracle has participated in the IFRS adoption process along with other software companies as members of an International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) System Company Discussion Group since its founding. Oracle’s accounting domain experts monitor developments in the regulatory environment to ensure our software reflects bestpractice and compliance.

Oracle E-Business Suite had customers reporting under the IFRS standards in the United Arab Emirates and in Switzerland in the early years of the twenty-first century with many customers doing so in the European Union, Australia, and other IFRS stock markets around the world.

IFRS Overview 191

Familiar Features Support IFRS RequirementsMany external reporting features are not specific to IFRS but can be used to support IFRS. For example, Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12 includes Sub-ledger Accounting (SLA), a rules based accounting engine that can be used to ensure consistency with accounting and data gathering across the world, while at the same time recording transactions in compliance with local regulations. SLA allows companies to record thesame business transaction under multiple accounting conventions. For example, a supplier invoice to record the purchase of goods can simultaneously be recorded using three conventions: US GAAP, IFRS, and local statutory.There are many other features Oracle E-Business Suite customers will be familiar with that are currently used to support US GAAP environments. Some reconfiguration may be necessary to comply with IFRS principles. For example, Oracle Inventory supports a variety of inventory valuation methods. However, to comply with IAS 2, inventory cannot be valued using the LIFO method.

IFRS Overview 192

For “development” expenses, expenses that might have been expensed immediately under US GAAP would need to be posted to the balance sheet and later released onto the P&L according to the IFRS principles. Customers can comply with this IFRS principle by deploying Oracle Projects, creating cost centers on the balance sheet and using allocations to release the expense; they could also track the development costs into bills of material using Oracle Inventory. The appropriate choice will depend on the circumstances of the customer, the products involved, the underlying business process, etc.

IFRS Overview 193

Unique IFRS Features

IFRS does have some principles that translate into requirements that are not required by other GAAP or regulatory standards. Oracle E-Business Suite includes specific features designed to meet these requirements as well.

An important example of a feature not widely used outside of IFRS compliance is “componentized assets” where an asset is tracked by its components when those components have different useful lives, (e.g., roof, elevator and frame of a building may have different lives). Under IFRS, each component would be depreciated under its own useful life. Oracle Assets within Oracle E-Business Suite facilitates the grouping of child assets (depreciated separately) into parent assets (managed as one) and further into asset groups.

IFRS Overview 194

The process of deriving and populating the componentized asset values is quite an issue for many customers. In Europe, many had to use real estate appraisers and other asset valuation experts. Oracle provides spreadsheet integration that facilitates importing and updating the revised valuations of the individual components.

"As per my observation we can do componentized asset depreciation by using many segments/ separate segment value for each component (make component is another segment)" .

Another example is the IFRS approach to asset impairment. The IFRS valuation method is different from US GAAP, and the impairment can be reversed. Asset impairment in Oracle E-Business Suite accommodates both of these options.

Dual GAAP Reporting

One of the most commonly asked questions about IFRS in regards to ERP systems is “how is dual or multiple GAAP reporting supported?”

Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12 and 12.1 have powerful multiple ledger reporting supported by alternative accounting in sub-ledgers with which an IFRS company can automate dual GAAP reporting. Release 11 also supported dual GAAP capabilities but to a lesser degree. In addition, Oracle Hyperion Financial Management provides consolidation and reporting capabilities oriented to support dual GAAP reporting.

Approaching Dual GAAP Reporting

• Depends on the customer’s circumstances vis-à-vis IFRS & US GAAP

– Top Down approach in EPM Products– Bottom Up approach in ERP Products

• EPM Solutions– Ask if the legacy supports the IFRS functionality in Hyperion– Specific IFRS Dimensionality, IFRS rules engine, etc.– See our EPM show!

• ERP Solutions– EBS: SLA, Ledgers, Multiple Ledgers, Ledger Sets– PeopleSoft: Book Code, Multiple Ledgers, Multi-Book– JDE: Multiple Ledger Types

Endgame: Adopting IFRS, walking away from GAAPA function of your Dual Reporting Choices

1. Many subsidiaries will retain GL and subsystems in compliance with either

• Statutory requirements (foreign subsidiaries)• Regulatory legislation (utilities, financial services, etc.)

2. Some will find that their existing GL is quite appropriate, but that they have a few subsystem areas that will require adjustment

3. Others will require that they need to do something more substantial, for example restructuring their business, up to the point of reimplementing

Macro-Level in EPM solution, Transaction-Level in E-Business Suite

During the comparative reporting period of the IFRS transition, companies will need to report under dual or multiple GAAPs. Depending on the complexity of the change from GAAP to IFRS compliance, the differences can be managed in a variety of ways.Customers will find themselves on a spectrum from a macro level approach to a detailed transaction approach when it comes to dual GAAP reporting. If a top-down approach is best, they can look to an Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) solution, such as HFM; whereas if a transaction level approach is more appropriate, they can address dualGAAP reporting within their ERP solution. Customers should work with their accounting compliance advisors to identify their circumstances and the appropriate approach.

IFRS Overview 208

To support multiple ledgers in Oracle E-Business Suite, Subledger Accounting will be used to automatically populate the necessary dual accounting entries. Ledgers with similar characteristics can belong to a “Ledger Set” which facilitates treating distinct ledgers as if they were one for reporting and accounting purposes. Together, these features provide powerful dual reporting capabilities.
