    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?

    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.

    🙂
