PAPER –1: FINANCIAL REPORTING
PART – I : RELEVANT AMENDMENTS, NOTIFICATIONS AND ANNOUNCEMENTS
A. Applicable for November, 2016 Examination
1. Indian Accounting Standards
The topic “Introduction of Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS); Comparative study of ASs vis-à-vis Ind ASs; Carve outs/ins in Ind ASs vis-à-vis International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs)” had been included in the syllabus and is applicable for November, 2016 Examination.
Considering the significance and relevance of Ind AS, the above topic has been
included in the syllabus and the students are expected to have an overall
knowledge of the contents covered therein. However, considering the extensive
coverage of the contents covered in such topic, from the examination perspective,
simple problems involving conceptual or application issues may be asked in the
examination.
2. Applicability of Ind AS 32, 107 and 109 on the topic ‘Accounting and Reporting
of Financial Instruments’
The entire IAS 39 “Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement”, on which AS 30 “Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement” was based, has been replaced by IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments”. Therefore, the Government of India opted to notify Ind AS 109 “Financial Instruments” in correspondence to IFRS 9 and not IAS 39. Also, AS 30, AS 31 and AS 32 on ‘Financial Instruments’ were earlier proposed to be made mandatory for Level I entities only. However, after notification of Ind AS in February, 2015, these entities will be applying the provisions stated in Ind AS 32, Ind AS 107 and Ind AS 109 and not AS 30, AS 31 and AS 32 for accounting of financial instruments. Therefore, it is felt appropriate to make applicable Ind AS 32, Ind AS 107 and Ind AS 109 in place of AS 30, AS 31 and AS 32 to the topic ‘Accounting for Financial Instruments’.
Accordingly, Ind AS 32 “Financial Instruments: Presentation”, Ind AS 107 “Financial Instruments: Disclosures” and Ind AS 109 “Financial Instruments” are made applicable to the topic ‘Accounting for Financial Instruments’ instead of AS 30 “Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement”, AS 31 “Financial Instruments: Presentation” and AS 32 “Financial Instruments: Disclosures” for November, 2016 examination.
In view of the complexities involved, simple practical problems involving conceptual
issues or application issues may be asked in the examination.

SUGGESTED ANSWERS / HINTS
1. (a) Para 27 of AS 1 ‘Disclosure of Accounting Policies’ requires that if the fundamental accounting assumptions, viz. Going Concern, Consistency and Accrual are followed in financial statements, specific disclosure is not required. However, if a fundamental accounting assumption is not followed, the fact should be disclosed.

Since the decision of the High Court was pending till the date of preparation of the financial statements, it is not appropriate to assume that the two companies had merged in the said financial year. Accordingly, not recognizing the interest income as well as lease rent payable to the subsidiary company in the financial statements of 2015-16, although they have become due, tantamount to not following the accrual concept with regard to AS 1. This is also contrary to the provisions of the section 128(1) of the Companies Act, 2013 which states that the books of accounts should be kept on accrual basis and according to the double entry system of accounting. Further as per the section, financial statements for every financial year shall give true and fair view of the state of the affairs of the company.

considered for the purpose of valuation of inventory.
Alternatively, candidates may deduct ` 500, the sales value of container assuming that the same is applicable to the purchases made, while computing material cost. In that case the material cost will be computed as ` 11,31,500 (`11,32,000 – `500) instead of ` 11,32,000. Accordingly the allocation of material cost will get change.
3. State VAT has not been included in the cost of material assuming that the input credit is admissible on the same.

(b) Purchase of business falls under Investing Activities as per AS 3 “Cash Flow Statement”. As per para 37 of the standard, the aggregate cash flows arising from acquisitions and from disposals of other business units should be presented separately and classified as investing activities. Also as per para 39, the separate presentation of the cash flow effects of acquisitions and disposals of subsidiaries and other business units as single line items helps to distinguish those cash flows from other cash flows. The cash flow effects of disposals are not deducted from those of acquisitions. Accordingly, netting of aggregate cash flows from disposal and acquisition of business units would not be appropriate as per the standard.
3. (a) According to AS 4 ‘Contingencies and Events Occurring after the Balance Sheet Date’, adjustments to assets and liabilities are required for events occurring after the balance sheet date that provide additional information materially affecting the determination of the amounts relating to conditions existing at the balance sheet date. However, adjustments to assets and liabilities are not appropriate for events occurring after the balance sheet date, if such events do not relate to conditions

20 FINAL EXAMINATION: NOVEMBER, 2016
existing at the balance sheet date. “Contingencies” used in the Standard is restricted to conditions or situations at the balance sheet date, the financial effect of which is to be determined by future events which may or may not occur.
(i) Fire has occurred after the balance sheet date and since no information in this regard exist on the balance sheet date, it is a non-adjusting event. Also the loss is totally insured. Therefore, the event becomes immaterial but disclosure with this regard might be made in the financial statements.
(ii) The contingency is restricted to conditions existing at the balance sheet date. However, in the given case, suit was filed against the company’s advertisement by a party on 10th April, 2016 for amount of ` 20 lakh. Therefore, it does not fit into the definition of a contingency. Also no condition for filing of suit against the company existed on the balance sheet date. Hence it is a non-adjusting event.
(iii) In the given case, proposal for sale of immovable property was sent before the closure of the books of accounts. This is a non-adjusting event as only the proposal was sent and no agreement was effected in the month of March, 2016 i.e. before the balance sheet date. Alternatively, it may be assumed that the proposal was sent only after advance negotiation. Hence, it shall be considered as an adjusting event. Accordingly, the adjustment may be made to the book value of the asset.
(iv) As the term and conditions of acquisition of business of another company had been decided by the end of March, 2016, acquisition of business shall be considered as an adjusting event occurring after the balance sheet date since arrangement of resources is merely for completion of the transaction. Hence, adjustment to assets and liabilities is required in the financial statements for the financial year ended on 31st March, 2016 since the event occurring after the balance sheet date i.e. investment of ` 40 lakh merely confirms the deal/investment and its amount.
(v) Since the financial statements have been approved before detection of theft by the cashier of ` 2,00,000, it becomes a non-adjusting event and no disclosure is required in the report of the approving authority.
(b) (i) Since the company is not appealing against the addition of ` 1.70 crore (` 5.40 crore less ` 3.70 crore), therefore, the same should be provided/ expensed off in its accounts for the year ended on 31st March, 2016. However, the amount paid under protest can be kept under the heading ‘Long-term Loans & Advances / Short-term Loans and Advances’ as the case may be alongwith disclosure as contingent liability of ` 3.70 crore.

= Contract price x percentage of completion
=` 12.60 crore x 40% = `5.04 crore
2. Profit for the year ended 31st March, 2016 = ` 5.04 crore –` 4 crore
=` 1.04 crore
(b) As per the Explanation to para 10 of AS 9 ‘Revenue Recognition’ the amount of excise duty to be deducted from the turnover should be the total excise duty for the year except the excise duty related to the difference between the closing stock and opening stock.
However, standard does not require basic custom duty to be shown as deduction from sales. Basic custom duty is an expense of the company and should have been shown as a charge in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Showing basic custom duty as a deduction to sales will tantamount to contradiction of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.
Therefore, the managements’ contention that excise duty shall be deducted from gross sales is correct but with respect to deduction of basic custom duty, there contention is not correct.

5. (a) As per AS 16, ‘Borrowing Costs’, an asset will be considered as a qualifying asset only when it takes substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use. Ordinarily, a period of twelve months is considered as substantial period of time unless a shorter or longer period can be justified on the basis of facts and circumstances of the case. In the given case, since the asset was under construction for the period of six months from its acquisition, it is considered as a non-qualifying asset in an ordinary case. Accordingly, borrowing cost will not be capitalized.
Further, the company may opt to capitalize the exchange difference arising on the settlement of monetary items or on reporting an enterprise’s monetary items at rates different from those at which they were initially recorded during the period, or reported in previous financial statements, or to recognise as income or expense in the period in which they arise.

6. (a) As per AS 13 ‘Accounting for Investments’, if the shares are purchased with an intention to hold for short-term period then investment will be shown at the market value. In the given case, shares purchased on 31st October, 2015, will be valued at ` 3,75,000 as on 31st March, 2016.
Gold and silver are generally purchased with an intention to hold it for long term period until and unless given otherwise. Hence, the investment in gold and silver (purchased on 31st March, 2013) shall continue to be shown at cost as on 31st March, 2016 i.e., ` 5,00,000 and ` 2,25,000 respectively, though their realizable values have been increased.
Thus the shares, gold and silver will be shown at ` 3,75,000, ` 5,00,000 and ` 2,25,000 respectively and hence, total investment will be valued at ` 11,00,000 in the books of account of Dynamic Ltd. for the year ending 31st March, 2016 as per provisions of AS 13.

PAPER – 1 : FINANCIAL REPORTING 25
Alternatively, if equity shares are acquired with an intention to hold for long term period then it will continue to be shown at cost in the Balance Sheet of the company. However, provision for diminution shall be made to recognize a decline, if other than temporary, in the value of the investments. In the given case, shares purchased on 31st October, 2015, will be valued at ` 4,50,000 as on 31st March, 2016 assuming that the fall in market value of the shares as on 31st March, 2016 is temporary in nature.
(b) As per AS 14 ‘Accounting for Amalgamations’, the term ‘consideration’ has been defined as the aggregate of the shares and other securities issued and the payment made in the form of cash or other assets by the transferee company to the shareholders of the transferor company.
The payment made by transferee company to discharge the Debenture holders and outside liabilities and cost of winding up of transferor company shall not be considered as part of purchase consideration.

7. (a) The present case falls under the category of defined benefit scheme under Para 49 of AS 15 (Revised) “Employee Benefits”. The said para encompasses cases where payment promised to be made to an employee at or near retirement presents significant difficulties in the determination of periodic charge to the statement of profit and loss. The contention of the Company that the settlement allowance will be accounted for on claim basis is not correct even if company’s obligation under the scheme is uncertain and requires estimation. In estimating the obligation, assumptions may need to be made regarding future conditions and events, which are largely outside the company’s control. Thus,
(1) Settlement allowance payable by the company is a defined retirement benefit,
covered by AS 15 (Revised).
(2) A provision should be made every year in the accounts for the accruing liability
on account of settlement allowance. The amount of provision should be
calculated according to actuarial valuation.

26 FINAL EXAMINATION: NOVEMBER, 2016
(3) Where, however, the amount of provision so determined is not material, the
company can follow some other method of accounting for settlement
allowances.
(b) Net effect on the Statement of Profit and Loss in the year of sale in the books of Lessee (Sahara Ltd.)
For calculation of net effect on the statement of profit and loss on sale of equipment, it has to be judged whether lease is an operating lease or finance lease.
The lease term is for 10 years which covers the entire economic life of the equipment. At the inception of the lease, the present value of the minimum lease payments (MLP) is ` 6,14,400 [` 1,00,000 x 6.144 (Annuity factor of ` 1 @10% for 10 years)] and amounts to at least substantially all of the fair value (sale price i.e. ` 6,14,460) of the leased equipment. Thus lease is a finance lease.
As per para 48 of AS 19 “Leases”, if a sale and leaseback transaction results in a finance lease, profit of ` 5,14,460 (Sale value ` 6,14,460 less carrying amount ` 1,00,000) will not be recognized as income in the year of sale in the books of lessee i.e. Sahara Ltd. It should be deferred and amortised over the lease term in proportion to the depreciation of the leased asset.
Therefore, assuming that depreciation is charged on straight line basis, Sahara Ltd. will recognize depreciation of ` 61,446 per annum for 10 years (` 6,14,460/ 10) and amortise profit of ` 5,14,460 over the lease term of 10 years, i.e. ` 51,446 p.a. The net effect is a debit of (` 61,446 - ` 51,446) ` 10,000 p.a. to the Statement of Profit and Loss, for 10 years as covered under the lease term.
Note: Had there been no sale and lease back transaction, the Statement of Profit and Loss for each year (covered in the lease term) would have been charged by (` 1,00,000/10) ` 10,000, towards depreciation. Thus, the sale and lease back transaction will have no impact on profit or loss account to be reported by the lessee (vendor in the sales transaction) over the lease period.
8. (a) As per para 13 of AS 22, “Accounting for Taxes on Income”, deferred tax in respect of timing differences which originate during the tax holiday period and reverse during the tax holiday period, should not be recognised to the extent deduction from the total income of an enterprise is allowed during the tax holiday period as per the provisions of sections 10A and 10B of the Income-tax Act. Deferred tax in respect of timing differences which originate during the tax holiday period but reverse after the tax holiday period should be recognised in the year in which the timing differences originate. However, recognition of deferred tax assets should be subject to the consideration of prudence. For this purpose, the timing differences which originate first should be considered to reverse first.
Out of ` 200 lakhs depreciation, timing difference amounting `80 lakh (` 10 lakh x 8 years) will reverse in the tax holiday period and therefore, should not

PAPER – 1 : FINANCIAL REPORTING 27
be recognised. However, for ` 120 lakh (`200 lakh – ` 80 lakh), deferred tax liability will be recognised for ` 48 lakh (40% of ` 120 lakh) in first year. In the second year, the entire amount of timing difference of ` 400 lakh will reverse only after tax holiday period and hence, will be recognised in full. Deferred tax liability amounting ` 160 lakh (40% of ` 400 lakh) will be created by charging it to profit and loss account and the total balance of deferred tax liability account at the end of second year will be ` 208 lakh (48 lakh + 160 lakh).
(b) As per para 36 of AS 25 “Interim Financial Reporting”, seasonal or occasional revenue and cost within a financial year should not be deferred as of interim date untill it is appropriate to defer at the end of the enterprise’s financial year. Therefore dividend income, extra-ordinary gain, and gain on sale of investment received during 3rd quarter should be recognised in the 3rd quarter only. Similarly, sales promotion expenses incurred in the 3rd quarter should also be charged in the 3rd quarter only.
Further, as per the standard, if there is change in the accounting policy within the current financial year, then such a change should be applied retrospectively by restating the financial statements of prior interim periods of the current financial year. The change in the method of depreciation or inventory valuation is a change in the accounting policy. Therefore, the prior interim periods’ financial statements should be restated by applying the change in the method of valuation retrospectively.
Accordingly, the adjusted profit before tax for the 3rd quarter will be as follows:

Note: As per AS 20, bonus shares issued to existing shareholders and to convertible debenture holders (on conversion of debentures into shares) are an issue without consideration. Therefore, it is treated as if it had occurred prior to the beginning of the year 2014-15, the earliest period reported.
10. (a) As per para 46 of AS 29 “Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets”, where some or all of the expenditure required to settle a provision is expected to be reimbursed by another party, the reimbursement should be recognised when, and only when, it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received if the enterprise

PAPER – 1 : FINANCIAL REPORTING 29
settles the obligation. The reimbursement should be treated as a separate asset. The amount recognised for the reimbursement should not exceed the amount of the provision.
It is apparent from the question that the company had not made provision for warranty in respect of certain goods considering that the company can claim the warranty cost from the original supplier. However, the provision for warranty should have been made as per AS 29 and the amount claimable as reimbursement should be treated as a separate asset in the financial statements of the company rather than omitting the disclosure of such liability. Accordingly, it was viewed that the accounting treatment adopted by the company with respect to warranty is not correct.

11. (a) Some key differences between Ind AS 1 and Existing AS 1 are:
Ind AS 1 deals with presentation of financial statements, whereas existing AS 1 (issued 1979) deals only with the disclosure of accounting policies. The scope of
© The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India
PAPER – 1 : FINANCIAL REPORTING 31
Ind AS 1 is thus much wider and line by line comparison of the differences with the existing standard is not possible. However, the major requirements as laid down in Ind AS 1 are as follows:
(i) An enterprise shall make an explicit statement in the financial statements of compliance with all the Ind AS. Further, Ind AS 1 allows deviation from a requirement of an Accounting standard in case the management concludes that compliance with Ind AS will be misleading and if the regulatory framework requires or does not prohibit such a departure.
(ii) Ind AS 1 requires presentation and provides criteria for classification of Current / Non-current assets / liabilities.
(iii) Ind AS 1 prohibits presentation of any item as ‘Extraordinary Item’ in the statement of profit and loss or in the notes.
(iv) Ind AS 1 requires disclosure of judgments made by management while framing of accounting policies. Also, it requires disclosure of key assumptions about the future and other sources of measurement uncertainty that have significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within next financial year.
(v) Ind AS 1 requires classification of expenses to be presented based on nature of expenses.
(vi) Ind AS 1 requires presentation of balance sheet as at the beginning of the earliest period when an entity applies an accounting policy retrospectively or makes a retrospective restatement of items in the financial statements, or when it reclassifies items in its financial statements.
(vii) In respect of reclassification of items, Ind AS 1 requires disclosure of nature, amount and reason for reclassification in the notes to financial statements.
(viii) Ind AS 1 requires the financial statements to include a Statement of Changes in Equity to be shown as a separate statement, which, inter alia, includes reconciliation between opening and closing balance for each component of equity.
(ix) Ind AS 1 requires that an entity shall present a single statement of profit and loss, with profit or loss and other comprehensive income presented in two sections. The sections shall be presented together, with the profit or loss section presented first followed directly by the other comprehensive income section.
(x) As per Ind AS 1, an entity shall include certain comparative information for understanding the current period’s financial statements.
(xi) Ind AS 1 clarifies that long term loan arrangement need not be classified as current on account of breach of a material provision, for which the lender has

agreed to waive before the approval of financial statements for issue.
(b) IAS 17 requires all leases rentals to be charged to Statement of Profit and Loss on straight line basis in case of operating leases unless another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern of the user’s benefit even if the payments to the lessor are not on that basis.
Carve out: A carve-out has been made to provide that lease rentals, in case of operating leases, shall be charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss in accordance with the lease agreement if the payments to the lessor are structured to increase in line with expected general inflation to compensate for the lessor’s expected inflationary cost increases. If payments to the lessor vary because of factors other than general inflation, then this condition is not met.
Reason: Companies enter into various kinds of lease agreements to get the right to use an asset of the lessor. Considering the Indian inflationary situation, lease agreements contain periodic rent escalation. Accordingly, where there is periodic rent escalation in line with the expected inflation so as to compensate the lessor for expected inflationary cost increases, the rentals shall not be straight-lined.
(c) The Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015, states that the following companies shall comply with Ind AS for the accounting periods beginning on or after 1st April, 2016, with the comparatives for the periods ending on 31st March, 2016, or thereafter, namely:-
(a) companies whose equity or debt securities are listed or are in the process of being listed on any stock exchange in India or outside India and having net worth of rupees five hundred crore or more;
(b) companies other than those covered by point (a) above and having net worth of rupees five hundred crore or more;
(c) holding, subsidiary, joint venture or associate companies of companies covered by point (a) and (b) as the case may be;
Further, the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015, states that for the purposes of calculation of net worth of companies, the following principles shall apply, namely:-
(a) the net worth shall be calculated in accordance with the stand-alone financial statements of the company as on 31st March, 2014 or the first audited financial statements for accounting period which ends after that date;
(b) for companies which are not in existence on 31st March, 2014 or an existing company falling under any of thresholds specified for the first time after 31st March, 2014, the net worth shall be calculated on the basis of the first audited financial statements ending after that date in respect of which it meets the thresholds specified.
© The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India
PAPER – 1 : FINANCIAL REPORTING 33
The companies meeting the specified thresholds for the first time at the end of an accounting year shall apply Ind AS from the immediate next accounting year in the manner specified above.
Once a company starts following Ind AS either voluntarily or mandatorily on the basis of criteria specified, it shall be required to follow Ind AS for all the subsequent financial statements even if any of the criteria specified in the rule does not subsequently apply to it.
In view of the above requirements, Company A meets the criteria as specified the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015, on 31st March, 2014.
Accordingly, the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015, will become applicable to the Company on mandatory basis from accounting periods commencing 1st April, 2016.
A holding, subsidiary, joint venture or associate company of a Company to which the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 applies will be required to follow the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 for preparing and presenting its financial statements.
In the abovementioned case, Company A has net worth of more than ` 500 crore in the financial year ending 31st March 2014. Therefore, ordinarily Company A along with its subsidiaries will have to apply Indian Accounting Standards (Ind ASs) for preparing financial statements for the accounting periods commencing 1st April, 2016, except in situations covered by Case A and Case B as discussed below.
A Company A has sold off its entire investment in Company X on 31st December, 2014; Company X is no longer a subsidiary of Company A as at the beginning of 1st April, 2016.
Therefore, in this case, Company X would continue to prepare financial statements for the accounting periods commencing 1st April, 2016, as per the Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006.
B Company A has sold its investment in subsidiary Company Y on 31st December, 2015, in consequence of which Company Y is no longer subsidiary of Company A as at the beginning of 1st April, 2016. Therefore, the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 will not be applicable to Company Y. Therefore, Company Y would continue to prepare financial statements for accounting periods commencing April 1, 2016 under the Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006.
C Company A has sold its investment in subsidiary Company Z on 31st December, 2016; therefore, Company Z was a subsidiary of Company A as at the beginning of 1st April, 2016. Company Z being subsidiary of Company A as at the beginning of 1st April, 2016, would have to prepare financial

statements for the accounting periods commencing 1st April, 2016 as per the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015.
12. (a) Under instant case the call option is exercisable within 12 months of reporting date (15 months minus 4 months), and accordingly the company does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date, and therefore same are to be classified as current trade payables.
(b) These are required to be disclosed under cash and cash equivalents separately in notes to accounts under Schedule III, however same is in conflict with the requirements of AS 3 “Cash Flow Statements” as they are neither in nature of demand deposits, nor readily available for use by the company, accordingly do-not meet the definition of cash equivalents. Hence the said items should also be included as ‘other bank balances’ under cash and bank balances alongwith FDR having balance maturity period of more than 12 months.
(c) As per the Guidance Note on the Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013, a breach is considered to impact the non-current nature of the loan only if the loan has been irrevocably recalled. Hence, in the Indian context, long-term loans, which have a minor or major breach in terms, will be considered as current only if the loans have been irrevocably recalled before authorization of the financial statements for issue. However, in case a bank has recalled the loan before the date of approval of the accounts on breach of a loan covenant that occurred before the year-end, the loan will have to be classified as current.

∗As per Section 68 (2) (d) of the Companies Act 2013, the ratio of debt owed by the company should not be more
than twice the capital and its free reserves after such buy-back. Further under Section 69 (1), on buy-back of
shares out of free reserves a sum equal to the nominal value of the share bought back shall be transferred to
Capital Redemption Reserve (CRR). As per section 69 (2) utilization of CRR is restricted to fully paying up
unissued shares of the Company which are to be issued as fully paid-up bonus shares only. It means CRR is not
available for distribution as dividend. Hence, CRR is not a free reserve. Therefore, for calculation of future equity
i.e. share capital and free reserves, amount transferred to CRR on buy-back has to be excluded from the present
equity.

Amount transferred to CRR and maximum equity to be bought back will be calculated by simultaneous equation method.
Suppose amount transferred to CRR account is ‘x’ and maximum permitted buy-back of equity is ‘y’.
Then
(` 32,25,000 – x) – ` 24,12,500 = y (1)

y ×

However, the net realisable value is greater than the original cost to the group.
Therefore, there is an overstatement to the extent of ` 20,000.

16. Paragraph 19 of the Guidance Note requires, for a performance condition that is not a market condition, the enterprise to recognise the services received during the vesting period based on the best available estimate of the number of shares or stock options expected to vest and to revise that estimate, if necessary, if subsequent information indicates that the number of shares or stock options expected to vest differs from previous estimates. On vesting date, the enterprise revises the estimate to equal the number of instruments that ultimately vested. However, paragraph 24 of the text of the Guidance Note requires, irrespective of any modifications to the terms and conditions on which the instruments were granted, or a cancellation or settlement of that grant of instruments, the enterprise to recognise, as a minimum, the services received, measured at the grant date fair value of the instruments granted, unless those instruments do not vest because of failure to satisfy a vesting condition (other than a market condition) that was specified at grant date.
Furthermore, paragraph 26(c) of the Guidance Note specifies that, if the enterprise modifies the vesting conditions in a manner that is not beneficial to the employee, the enterprise does not take the modified vesting conditions into account when applying the requirements of paragraphs 18 to 20 of the text of the Guidance Note.
Therefore, because the modification to the performance condition made it less likely that the stock options will vest, which was not beneficial to the employee, the enterprise takes no account of the modified performance condition when recognising the services received. Instead, it continues to recognise the services received over the three-year period based on the original vesting conditions. Hence, the enterprise ultimately recognises cumulative remuneration expense of ` 1,80,000 over the three-year period (12 employees × 1,000 options × ` 15).
The same result would have occurred if, instead of modifying the performance target, the enterprise had increased the number of years of service required for the stock options to vest from three years to ten years. Because such a modification would make it less likely that the options will vest, which would not be beneficial to the employees, the enterprise would take no account of the modified service condition when recognising the services

received. Instead, it would recognise the services received from the twelve employees who remained in service over the original three-year vesting period.
