    Hello,

    Struggling to understand when we use the actual cost value for financial asset or liability (e.g. 10m nominal value bonds) as a starting point in Y1 vs. when we use PV of future cash flows as starting point.

    Use cost with 2 exceptions:

    1. Issue convertible loans.
    2. Lend money at zero interest

    Otherwise you should not be discounting

    IFRS 13 – record at FAIR VALUE (don’t know where you’ve got PF of CF)

    Keep it simple!

    🙂
