Reclassification?

AAnonymous4y ago
Is it justifiable if company wants to reclassify their business model to hold to collect and sell, currently they are using hold to collect model. Based on this information 1) as a result of pandemic there are liquidity crisis and company needs to release cash. 2) credit quality of the issuer of many debt instruments has deteriorated Is it justifiable or company should continue to use hold to collect business model

Reclassification from AC to FVOCI for debt is OK if business model changes. Source IAS PLUS All posts are for exam purposes only and the author assumes no liability.

So it can be said that these changes will affect the business model of the company amd it would be fair to reclassify it
