hi chris, hope you doing well. in the event of unrecognized firm commitment to purchase item of PPE (f.v hedge), is the journal going to be Dr financial assets and Cr p/l with full gain on the instrument?

That's a very hard question! I would treat as cash flow hedge - Dr FA Cr OCI Fair value hedge is horrible - Dr FA Cr P&;L AND Dr P&L Cr Firm commitment liability with the same number - it's crazy. If a candidate knew that I would eat my hat. It took me 30 years to get my head round it. Would I worry about it - no!
