Hi,
A question within the Kaplan SBR exam kit.
Could you explain their accounting treatment for the expected credit loss? Why is $400k being charged under the PL, and the remainder under OCI?
Thanks

Thanks,

Sorry, the total fall in value is the $0.7million. Of this decrease $0.4m is due to the ECL and so recognised through profit or loss, and so the remainder is then recognised through OCI as it is held at FVTOCI.
Thanks

I am having a problem regarding the same question.Can you explain why the impairment of $0.7million is being charged like this ‘$0.4million in P&L and $0.3 in OCI’
And if your saying that $0.4million is due to ECL then why it is being recognised through P&L not OCI because it is mentioned above in the question that ECL allownace in recognised in OCI?
February 18, 2020 at 8:50 pm #562319You also mentioned that decrease of $0.4m is due to ECL they why its mentioned that ECL does not effect the carrying value of the instrument.
February 19, 2020 at 8:48 pm #562445As this relates to a question 1 year ago, please could you set out the key numbers in a new thread as I don’t have a copy of the question.
Steve
