SOLUTION 3 REPORT To: Mr. Walter Johnson, Managing Director Translate Limited From: Financial Accountant Re: IAS 21 Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates Date: September 2012 a) i) Per paragraph 20 of IAS 21, a foreign currency transaction is a transaction that is denominated or requires settlement in a foreign currency, including transactions arising when an entity; (a) Buys or sells goods or services whose price is denominated in a foreign currency; (b) Borrows or lends funds when the amounts payable or receivable are denominated in a foreign currency; or (c) Otherwise acquires or disposes of assets, or incurs or settles liabilities, denominated in a foreign currency. (2 Marks) ii) Per paragraph 8 of IAS 21, an exchange difference is the difference resulting from translating a given number of units of one currency into another currency at different exchange rates. (2 Marks) b) i) Per paragraph 21 of IAS 21, on initial a foreign currency transaction shall be recorded by applying to the foreign currency amount the spot exchange rate between the functional currency and foreign currency at the date of the transaction. For practical reasons, a rate that approximates the actual rate at the date of transaction is often used, for example, an average rate for a week or a month might be used for all transactions in each foreign currency occurring during that period. However, if exchange rates fluctuate significantly, the use of the average rate for a period is inappropriate. (3 Marks) ii) Per paragraph 23 of IAS 21, at the end of each reporting period; (a) foreign currency monetary items shall be translated using the closing exchange rate; (b) Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency shall be translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction; and (c) Non-monetary items that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency shall be translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined. (3 Marks) c) The accounting treatment for the transactions for the year-ending 31st December 2010 and 2011 is as follows: 31.10.2010 Dr. Purchases SOCI 100,000 ($120,000/1.20) Cr. Trade Payables SOFP 100,000 31.12.2010 Dr. Trade Payables SOFP 4,000 Cr. Expense SOCI 4,000 The 4,000 is an exchange difference that arises due to the change in the exchange rates from the 31.10.2010 to the 31.12.2010 i.e. $120,000/1.25 = 96,000. The difference between 100,000 and 96,000 is 4,000. 28.02.2011 Dr. Trade Payables SOFP 96,000 Dr. Expense SOCI 24,000 Cr. Bank SOFP 120,000 ($120,000/1.00) (10 Marks) I hope that the above responses clarify and answer your queries. If you have any further queries, please do not hesitate to contact me.
