Hi,
For Financial liabilities measured through amortised cost, the standard states that transaction costs are expensed through p/l. Does this mean that for a 10 year loan, if brokerage of $30,000 was incurred the whole amount would be debited to p/l on initial recognition or would it subsequently be expensed throughout the life of the liability in an amortised cost basis?
Ask the Tutor ACCA SBR
Transaction costs
Assume loan is 500 and transaction costs are 30.
On Day 1:
Dr Cash Cr Loan 500
AND
Dr P&L Cr Cash 30
So, expensed on Day 1.
:)
Okay, thank you so much!
