Fixed Assets and Depreciation
Depreciation in accounting terms normally means the devaluation of a fixed asset. • Determining the useful life of a fixed asset is usually much easier then an intangible asset.• Since the useful life of fixed assets is much easier to determine, depreciation is much more common than amortization.• Some Examples of fixed assets: Equipment, Computers, Vehicles, Furniture and Buildings.
• There are several methods of devaluating assets. The most common methods are straight-line and double-declining balance methods.
• Straight-line depreciation :• Cost of Asset 10,500 , Salvage Value 500 , Life 5 years• Depreciation Expense per year = 10,500 – 500 = 2000 5

Declining Balance depreciation
• The double-declining balance method ignores salvage value in the initial calculation.• However, depreciation expense will be limited if the calculated amount would result in the book value dropping below
the salvage value.• Example : Suppose an asset has a prior book value of $600 and a salvage value of $500. In this case, depreciation
expense is limited to the remaining $100 book value in excess of salvage value.• Furthermore ,each year comparisons are made between the declining balance rate calculations and straight-line
depreciation of the remaining book value. • A switch to the straight-line calculation is made in the year in which the straight-line calculation exceeds the declining
balance rate calculation.DDB rate = 1/Life x 2 = 1/5 x 2 = 40% Declining balance rate depreciation = Beginning of period carrying value x DDB rate
Year Declining Balance rate Straight line
1 10,500 x 40% = 4,200 10,500 - 500)/5 = 2,000
2 6,300 x 40% = 2,520 6,300 - 500)/4 = 1,450
3 3,780 x 40% = 1,512 3,780 - 500)/3 = 1,093
4 2,268 x 40% = 907 2,268 - 500)/2 = 884
5 1,361 x 40% = 544 1,361 - 500)/1 = 861

• In order to understand how amortization and depreciation affects income, it’s important to see how the transaction is posted to the accounting journal.
• The following is an example of a typical journal asset for depreciation.
• Note: • The journal increase of the expense is transferred to the general ledger.• Expense general ledger totals are then transferred to the income statement at the end of the month• The result is a decrease to net income (income – expense)• Since the result is a decrease in net income, this creates a decrease in the tax liability of the company• The decrease in the asset is transferred to the balance sheet at the end of the month, resulting in a decrease in the
company’s net worth.

Intangible Assets and Amortization
• Amortization in accounting terms means the devaluation of an intangible asset. • An intangible asset is something of value to a business that does not have a physical presence. • In order to write down an asset, it must have a useful life. • The useful life of an intangible is often difficult to determine.
• Some examples of intangible assets are: Patents, Goodwill, Contracts, License, Trademarks and Franchise
• When the intangible asset is originally purchased the cost should be debited to an asset account. This cost is then "written off" or amortized. Generally trough straight line method.

Accrual Accounting
• A system of accounting that recognizes revenue and matches it with the expenses that generated that revenue.
• Unlike other systems of accounting, which recognize revenue and expenses in the order in which they are received, the accrual accounting convention ignores the function of time and only considers what expenses generate what revenues, even if payments have not actually been made.
• Some Examples….

Accrued Revenues• Accrued revenue refers to revenue that has been incurred but not yet received. • Examples of accrued revenue items might be services you have provided but that have not yet been billed or paid for.
The service industries account for a large number of accrued revenue transactions, since quite often services are provided over a week, month, or even year, but aren’t billed until the job is complete.
• One of the most basic concepts of accounting involves determining if an item is an asset or a liability.
• Adjusting entry :
• Future exchange of cash:
• Example: Company A has Performed $500 of services for a customer on account.

Adjusting Journal Entries
1. Deferral Adjustments• Deferred Expenses
• A deferral involves a past exchange of cash that has initially been recorded on the balance sheet rather than on the income statement.
• The name deferral comes about because the recording on the income statement is deferred (postponed) to a later time.
• A deferred expense is initially recorded on the balance sheet as an asset than being immediately expensed. An adjusting entry becomes necessary as the asset is consumed and becomes an expense.
• Example : Short term Assets.• Past Exchange of Cash.
• Adjusting entry necessary as the asset is consumed

Deferred Revenues
• Revenue cannot be recorded until the income has been earned. Cash received in advance of income realization should be initially recorded in a liability account such as "Unearned Revenue".
• An adjusting entry later becomes necessary as the revenue is earned. The liability should be reduced and the revenue recorded.
• Past exchange of cash
• Adjusting entry necessary as revenue is earned
• Example: Adams CPA previously received $500 for bookkeeping services in advance of providing the services. Adams has now earned $300 of the money

IFRS 11 JOINT ARRANGEMENTS
• The Objective of IFRS 11 is that a party to a joint arrangement determines the type of joint arrangement in which it is involved by assessing its rights and obligations and accounts for those rights and obligations in accordance with that type of joint arrangement.
• Joint arrangements• A joint arrangement is an arrangement of
which two or more parties have joint control.
• characteristics joint arrangement • The parties are bound by a contractual
arrangement.• The contractual arrangement gives two
or more of those parties joint control of the arrangement.
• Joint arrangements are either joint operations or joint ventures.
• A joint operation is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the assets, and obligations for the liabilities, relating to the arrangement. Those parties are called joint operators.
A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the arrangement. Those parties are called joint ventures.
Types of joint arrangements
The IASB (International Accounting Standards Board) recently issued IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements that eliminates proportionate consolidation as a method to account for joint ventures.!!

Joint control
Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing
of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about
the relevant activities require the unanimous consent of the parties
sharing control.
Before assessing whether an entity has joint control over an arrangement, an entity first assesses whether the parties, or a group of the
parties, control the arrangement (in accordance with the definition of control
in IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements)

Approaches to IFRS Adoption
2013 ZaranTech LLC. All rights reserved. Contact: Email- [email protected], Phone: 515-309-7846
Three Approaches to IFRS Adoption
Adoption. This approach directly adopts IFRS standards as the accounting norm for preparing financial statements. India, for example, plans to take this approach.
Convergence. This approach adapts local accounting standards so they align with IFRS. Local standards remain the preferred reporting accounting norm, though they might be
updated to reflect IFRS. Australia is taking this approach.Endorsement. This approach allows local governing bodies to incorporate individual IFRS standards into local accounting or GAAP standards. A country using this approach endorses the use of applicable IFRS standards, but keeps local standards as the norm,
without necessarily updating them. This is the approach of the United States

In 2002, the IASB and FASB signed the ‘Norwalk’ agreement, expressing their desire to converge their accounting standards into one commonly used set of standards.
The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) designated the FASB as the organization responsible for setting accounting standards for public companies in the U.S.
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) is a private, not-for-profit organization who developed generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) within the United States in the public's interest.

The Strengthsof Principle-Based Standards
2013 ZaranTech LLC. All rights reserved. Contact: Email- [email protected], Phone: 515-309-7846
Principles-based accounting standards can serve the needs for business and public interest.
Complete comparability is never possible in accounting, therefore one should emphasize on explaining key judgments being made.
Principles-based accounting standards need a clear hierarchy of overarching concepts with limited additional guidance.
Rules-based accounting standards add unnecessary complexity.
Principles-based standards provide a comprehensive basis and have the flexibility to deal with new and different situations
In a principles-based system, more responsibility for judgments and explaining judgments of preparers (CFOs) and auditors is necessary.
Resulting from differences in jurisdiction and different cultures around the world, convergence cannot be achieved if the basis is a rules-based approach, since this will be difficult to implement.
The Weaknesses/limitation of Principle-Based Standards
2013 ZaranTech LLC. All rights reserved. Contact: Email- [email protected], Phone: 515-309-7846
The first limitation is that limited guidance may lead to enforcement difficulties.
Since financial accounting theory lacks an unambiguously clear elaboration of the concept of profit and the goals they are aiming at, lacking guidance will harm earnings quality.
Secondly, several authors determine an inconsistency between the CF and accounting standards, which will hamper a principles-based approach.
An example of an inconsistency is that ‘highly reliable information may have little relevance to users, such as unamortized acquisition, exploration and development costs,
A third limitation of principles-based accounting standards is the ability to use its flexibility for opportunistic behavior.
Since there are no strict descriptions, CFOs may use more aggressive interpretations of their evidence for measuring an accounting event
Finally, Since principles-based standards lack clear application guidance, proving the incorrectness of CFOs assessment is relatively hard.
The Strengthsof Rules-Based Standards
2013 ZaranTech LLC. All rights reserved. Contact: Email- [email protected], Phone: 515-309-7846
As a rules-based system provides more additional
guidance, financial reports become more comparable
By including rules, both clarity and verifiability
improves
Rules-based standards have a strong
enforceability and are authoritative
Reduced opportunities for earnings management
through judgments (compared to a principles-
based system)
No requirement for a very strong ‘professional
judgment’ on the part of accountants and auditors.
The Weaknesses/limitation of Rules-Based Standards
2013 ZaranTech LLC. All rights reserved. Contact: Email- [email protected], Phone: 515-309-7846
Rules might be arbitrary and the result of a political
process, causing annual reports that deviate from
their economic reality. On the ‘cookbook’ (Rules Based ) point of view,
companies may structure transactions to meet the specific requirements of
the accounting standards.
Rules-based accounting standards cause an
enormous increase in complexity to apply in
practice.Can drastically depart from
the underlying principle.
Final Limitation of rules-based accounting
standards is the effect of creating ‘seemingly’ comparable financial
reports
If an accounting standard is inappropriately strict,
financial reports of different companies show
exactly comparable approaches, whereas the
day-to-day operations differ enormously

Some general differences between IFRS and U.S. GAAP
2013 ZaranTech LLC. All rights reserved. Contact: Email- [email protected], Phone: 515-309-7846
Development costs — These costs can be capitalized under IFRS if certain criteria are met, while it is considered as “expenses” under U.S. GAAP.
Earning-per-Share — Under IFRS, the earning-per-share calculation does not average the individual interim period calculations, whereas under U.S. GAAP the computation averages the individual interim period incremental shares.
Inventory — Under IFRS, LIFO (a historical method of recording the value of inventory, a firm records the last units purchased as the first units sold) cannot be used while under U.S. GAAP, companies have the choice between LIFO and FIFO (is a common method for recording the value of inventory).
Statement of Income — Under IFRS, extraordinary items are not segregated in the income statement, while, under US GAAP, they are shown below the net income.
Consolidation — IFRS favors a control model whereas U.S. GAAP prefers a risks-and-rewards model. Some entities consolidated in accordance with FIN 46(R) may have to be shown separately under IFRS.
IFRS Adoption Around the World

IFRS permitted or required
Convergence plans
U.S. GAAP and/or convergence intended
No/unknown convergence plans
Approximately 120 nations and reporting jurisdictions permit or require IFRS for domestic listed companies.
• Approximately 90 countries have fully conformed with IFRS as promulgated by the IASB and include a statement acknowledging such conformity in audit reports.
IFRS Adoption Around the World 2011
What are the advantages of converting to IFRS?
2013 ZaranTech LLC. All rights reserved. Contact: Email- [email protected], Phone: 515-309-7846
By adopting IFRS, a business can present its financial statements on the same basis as its foreign
competitors, making comparisons easier.
Furthermore, companies with subsidiaries in countries that require or permit IFRS may be
able to use one accounting language company-wide.
Companies also may need to convert to IFRS if they are a
subsidiary of a foreign company that must use IFRS, or if they
have a foreign investor that must use IFRS.
Companies may also benefit by using IFRS if they wish to
raise capital abroad.
What could be the disadvantages of converting to IFRS?
2013 ZaranTech LLC. All rights reserved. Contact: Email- [email protected], Phone: 515-309-7846
Despite a belief by some of the inevitability of the global
acceptance of IFRS, others believe that U.S. GAAP is the gold
standard, and that a certain level of quality will be lost with full
acceptance of IFRS.
Certain U.S. issuers without significant customers or operations
outside the United States may resist IFRS because they may not
have a market incentive to prepare IFRS financial statements.
Because they may believe that the significant costs associated with
adopting IFRS outweigh the benefits.
Summary IFRS and Impact
2013 ZaranTech LLC. All rights reserved. Contact: Email- [email protected], Phone: 515-309-7846

• How to setup the consolidation framework in order to keep the investment details like no of shares, investment details also in the BPC system ?
• What is the difference between PCON, PCTRL and POWN
Add the relevant accounts in the O_account dimension : number of issued shares, number of owned shares, with and without voting rightsCreate the corresponding data entry schedule in order to enable users to enter the number of shares owned (using the interco dimension) – data can also be loaded using a flat file, BW cube…Set up the calculation of ownership percentage based on data entered on owned and issued shares
Percent control represents the percentage of an entity based on voting shares thatother entities own, directly or indirectly. It is used to determine the consolidationmethodPercent ownership (also known as the interest percetange) represents the percentage of an entity’s nonvoting shares that other entities own, directly or indirectlyPercent consolidation is the percentage of an entity’s values that consolidate to its parentDirect percent ownership is the percentage of regular nonvoting shares of stock owned by each entity

• What is the use of the new properties for Entity – Control_Level and Ctrl_currency_not_LC ?
Can we execute the controls at the group level ?
Thanks to the Control Level. So when the controls are executed, only the controlsbelow or equal to the level associated to the entity will be run.property, the administrator can associate a level of required control for each entityThe Ctrl_currency_not_LC enables the controls execution for those entities were data entry are performed directly on a currency, and not on the LC member in the currency dimension
No, controls can only be launched on base entities.

Please note the following points:
Member in the Entity type dimension of the Rate application needs to be called GLOBAL (in upper case) for the conversion to group currencies to work properly
The respective programs for currency conversion and consolidation are called directly. No logic script is called, therefore no custom calculations can be executed.

Consolidation Monitor Incremental vs. Full
The Currency Conversion and Consolidation programs can be executed in incremental or full mode. The incremental mode will only execute the program for those entities that were changed since the last execution of the program (this is of course much faster than executing the program for all entities)The process works the following way: - Every time data is written-back to the system, a timestamp is written to a separate table to keep track of when the data of an entity has last been updated
- When a program runs in incremental mode, it will check which entity has been modifiedsince it’s last execution and only perform the calculation for those entities, whichsignificantly speeds up the process.

• Rates were changed• Ownership information was changed• Business Rules were changed
The program needs to be run in full mode if one of the cases mentionedabove has occurred.

Using multiple headers will generate a group of individual journal entries with common values but different header selections:
• After checking the Multiple Headers checkbox, select the dimension that will contain the multiple selections.
• A member selection popup box will appear, select one or several dimension members…each member selection will create a separate, but grouped, journal entry upon saving the journal.
• In the example shown, this journal definition will create three grouped journal entries for 2010.JAN, 2010.FEB, and 2010.MAR.

2013 ZaranTech LLC. All rights reserved. Contact: Email- [email protected], Phone: 515-309-7846
What is the Ownership Manager?
The Ownership Manager (formally known as the Dynamic Hierarchy Editor in earlier
versions of BPC) is a transaction data based representation of an organizational
hierarchy as well as defining consolidation parameters.
The hierarchies created by OM are identified with three keys dimensions: Category,Time, and Scope. This allows multiple
organizational structures to be created tosupport dynamic ownership situations (such as
acquisitions, divestitures, changesin existing positions, etc.).
Ownership Manager 2/22
2013 ZaranTech LLC. All rights reserved. Contact: Email- [email protected], Phone: 515-309-7846
Ownership Manager - Prerequisites
The ownership manager requires an Ownership model to be defined that is of thetechnical model type “ownership”
Model definition:
The Ownership model must include the following dimensions:
1.Dimension type “A” – provides information on ownership type such as PGROUP, POWN, PCON, and PCTRL
2.Dimension type “C” *3.Dimension type “E” *4.Dimension type “T” *5.Dimension type “I” *6.Dimension type “G”*
*must be the same dimension as used within the Legal (Consolidation) application

Direct Share Vs. Group Share (1)Example
Consolidation units US, DE, and IN are assigned to consolidation group World for a certain period and category.
Parent unit US holds 60% of the shares in consolidation unit DE and controls the voting rights 60%
Consolidation unit DE holds 80% of the shares in consolidation unit IN and controls the voting rights 80%.
In group World, the Parent unit US is the holding company of unit DE and although US does not directly hold the unit IN, in reality US has control of IN through an “indirect” control via unit DE

Calculation with group share, which only captures the group part of the ownership (in this case the UPO using group share in World for unit IN is 48% (equal to “ 60%” , % of DE owned by US multiplied by “80%” , “% of IN Owned by DE")
Group Share = 60% * 80% = 48%

Direct Share Vs. Group Share (3)Direct Share
UPO with direct share in this case should be inherited based on the DIRECT %of control between the direct parent (US) and the child unit (IN) as the ultimate parent of Group World (US) controls the parent DE.
The UPO with direct share value, in this case for CG1,is 80% NOT 48%.
Direct Share = 80%

Why consolidated statements?
Consolidated instead of separate financial statements for fair presentation.
The purpose of consolidated financial statements is ;• To present, primarily for the benefit of the owners and creditors of the parent, the results of operations and the
financial position of a parent company and all its subsidiaries as if the consolidated group were a single economic entity with one or more branches or divisions
• There is a presumption that consolidated financial statements are more meaningful than separate financial statements and that they are usually necessary for a fair presentation.
• For instance, when one of the entities in the consolidated group directly or indirectly has a controlling financial interest in the other entities”
• (FAS 160)(IFRS 10)

Equity method (APB 18) (IAS 28)
A method of accounting by which an equity investment is initially recorded at cost and subsequently adjusted to reflect the investor's share of the net assets of the associate (investee).
• Investments where investor has ability to “significantly influence” investee (APB 18) (IAS 28)• Investor recognizes its share of the earnings or losses of an investee in the periods for which they are reported • Share of the earnings or losses adjusts parent investment and reports the recognized earnings or losses in
income.• Cash dividends reduces reversed to avoid double counting

Consolidated Financial Statements (ARB 51) (IFRS 10 )
• Financial statements are combined between parent and subsidiaries in a common reporting currency (FAS 52)
• Intercompany items are eliminated to avoid double counting• Various methods can be used to combine financial statements into one consolidated one such as:1. “Proportional Method” (IFRS)2. “Pooling of Interests”3. “Purchase Method”4. “Acquisition Method”
• Under acquisition method, investment is eliminated against equity and the portion of equity not attributable to parent is created in the equity section as non-controlling interest (FAS 160).

Influence, control and ownership
• APB Opinion 18 states “The equity method tends to be most appropriate if an investment enables the investor to influence the operating or financial decisions of the investee…Influence tends to be more effective as the investor’s percent of ownership in the voting stock of the investee increases”.
• ARB 51 was originally based on majority ownership of voting shares. After Enron FIN 46R, the basis for consolidation was expanded to any enterprise that controls the economic risks and rewards of an investee, regardless of ownership.

Understanding IC matchingHow to accelerate financial consolidation with peer-to-peer matching
• Designed to enable subsidiaries to do their own intercompany reconciliation with peers to expedite corporate reconciliation
• Copies the trading partner side of eliminations onto the receiving entity for secured reporting purposes
• Designed as a separate application with specific data sources to facilitate intercompany reconciliation
• Consider a separate application for IC matching; facilitates adding additional transaction currency dimension and having separate work status definitions

Business Scenario Example for ExerciseAcquisition and equity method example scenarios
Organizational structure consisting of acquisition/purchase method (fair value and book value assumed to be same) in Europe (German parent owning 80% of UK subsidiary) and equity method in Asia (Japanese parent owning 30% of Australian associate)
Consolidated financial statements that take into account:
1. Europe and Asia is EUR and USD but currency translation exercise is focused on Europe in EUR (where UK subsidiary is in GBP)
2. Intercompany eliminations of receivables and payables and revenue and expenses within Europe as well

Currency TranslationCumulative translation adjustment example (1)
Financial statements of UK subsidiary is combined with German parent• Balance sheet is translated and month-end spot• Income statement translated at average rate• Retained earnings translated at both historical and average rates causing the balance sheet to be out-of-
balance and necessitating an equity plug (i.e. “CTA” or “Currency Translation Adjustment”)
In the exercise, currency translation adjustment is created by one account, Retained Earnings
• Opening retained earnings balance is at an “As-Is” historical rate (group reporting currency values are loaded into the system so the balance is not translated
• Current period retained earnings is translated at an average rate consistent with the income statement (since current period retained earnings of associate equals the earnings or losses of that investee)
• The implied or effective rate of the “As-Is” historical rate just happens to be the same as month-end spot rate (to simplify the exercise example)
• As a result, out-of-balance result is further isolated to current period retained earnings

Currency TranslationCumulative translation adjustment example (2)
CTA calculation is as follows
• Current period retained earnings of 5 is translated at an average rate of 1.5 (equaling 7.50) instead of a closing rate of 1.25 (which would have been 6.25 to keep balance sheet in balance) creating a CTA difference of 1.25 (7.50 – 6.25) for the equity plug

Equity Method – First ConsolidationCost over book value purchase of equity method company
When cost is in excess of book value purchased, the difference must be accounted for in one of two ways:
1. Assets that are undervalued on the investee’s books must amortize fair value differences over the remaining useful life of the asset (lest the assetlife is indefinite)
2. Goodwill remains without adjustment until the investment is disposed or impaired according to FAS 142 (effective Dec 15, 2001 and later)
The exercise scenario illustrates the second approach under 30% ownership1. Investment in associate of 2502. Associate equity of 8003. Proportionate book value of 240 (800 * 30%)4. Cost over book value goodwill of 10 (250 – 240)
