    sir if a company wants to raise $100m and knows that $1m would be the issue costs, then won’t the company raise $101m? and if so would be case why then do we write financial liabilities at their fair value less any issue costs in SFP? Cause if we raise $101m then interest has to be paid on that and hence that becomes our liability (short/long term whatever that is)

    Hi,

    No, we pay issue costs when we raise the money and so this reduces the amount of the financial liability.

    DR Bank $100m
    CR Financial liability $100m

    and then we pay the issue costs

    DR Financial liability $1m
    CR Bank $1m

    Thanks
