    Hi,
    I have just come across a question in which I have tried to apply the logic behind the video I have just watched on cash flow hedging but I am struggling..

    A company enters into a derivative contract in order to protect cash inflows.
    The FV of the instrument was nil at inception.
    At the reporting date – the FV of the loss in respect of future cash flows was $9,100.

    Explain the accounting treatment if the fair value of the hedging instrument was :

    a) $8,500
    b) $10,000

    Sorry – I am struggling here – what is the $9,100? is that the loss in OCI. I cannot work this out at all, because I am struggling to see where the hedging item is – it doesn’t give any details on this.

    Thanks

    Hedged item is expected future cash flows of 9100 – not yet recognised in the FS

    Hedging instrument is derivative

    (a) Gain in derivative to OCI

    (b) Gain on derivative – 9100 to OCI and 900 to P&L

    Go easy on hedging – exam questions are not that hard (honestly!)
