, Fin acc 278
• Already addressed in fin acc 278 (so revise last years work)
1) IAS 21 with IAS 16 (PPE)
a. The CP on the transaction date = is translated at the spot exchange rate
EXAMPLE (IAS 16)
Purchase property in USA on 31 March 2020 for $100 000 (FC= ZAR)
Payment is made on the 15 May 2020 (thus on the 31 March we have a creditor)
The year end is 30 April 2020
exchange rates :
31-Mar $1= R17.88
30-Apr $1= R18.27
ANSWER
1) PPE @ HISTORICAL COST
ON TRANSACTION DATE : 31 March
Dr PPE 1 788 000
CR creditors 1 788 000
($100 000 x R17.88)
ON YEAR END ( 30 April )
DR exchange rate difference (PL) 39 000
CR Creditors 39 000
($100 000 x 18.27) - 1 788 000)
2) PPE @ REVALUED VALUE
a. Lets say payment occurs on 31 march 2020 (so NO more creditor)
b. And then the PPE is revalued on year end to $110 000
c. Thus there is a revaluation
d. There is NO FCTR affect on the revaluation the exchange rate is only to determine the R value of the
PPE
ON TRANSACTION DATE : 31 March
Dr PPE 1 788 000
CR Bank 1 788 000
($100 000 x R17.88)

CR Revaluation surplus (OCI) 221 700
($110 000 x 18.27) - 1 788 000)
, 2) IAS 21 with IAS 2 (inventory )

ON YEAR END ( 30 April )
DR NRV- write down (PL) 17 040
CR Inventory (SFP) 17 040
(894 000 - ($48 000 x 18.27)
