OREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS AND TRANSLATIONS

DEFINITIONS OF TERMS Conversion. The exchange of one currency for another. Current exchange rate. The rate at which one unit of a currency can be exchanged for (converted into) another currency. For purposes of translation of financial statements, the current exchange rate is the rate at the end of the period covered by the financial statements or at the dates of recognition in those statements with respect to revenues, expenses, gains, and losses. Discount or premium on a forward contract. The foreign currency amount of the contract multiplied by the difference between the contracted forward rate and the spot rate at the date of inception of the contract. Foreign currency. A currency other than the functional currency of the reporting entity being referred to (for example, the Philippine peso could be a foreign currency for a foreign entity). Foreign currency statements. Financial statements that employ as the unit of measure a functional currency that is not the reporting currency of the enterprise. Foreign currency transactions. Transactions whose terms are denominated in a currency other than the reporting entity’s functional currency. Foreign currency transactions arise when an enterprise (1) buys or sells goods or services on credit whose prices are denominated in foreign currency, (2) borrows or lends funds and the amounts payable or receivable are denominated in foreign currency, (3) is a party to an unperformed forward exchange contract, or (4) for other reasons, acquires or disposes of assets or incurs or settles liabilities denominated in foreign currency. Foreign currency translation. The process of expressing in the enterprise’s reporting currency amounts that are denominated or measured in a different currency. Forward exchange contract. An agreement to exchange at a specified future date currencies of different countries at a specified rate (forward rate). Functional currency. The currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates; normally, the currency of the environment in which the entity primarily generates and expends cash. Local currency. The currency of a particular country being referred to. Monetary items. Cash, claims to receive a fixed amount of cash, and obligations to pay a fixed amount of cash. Non-monetary items. All statement of financial position items other than cash, claims to cash, and cash obligations. Presentation currency- Paragraph 8 defines this as the currency in which the financial statements of the entity are presented. Remeasurement. If an entity’s accounting records are not maintained in its functional currency, remeasurement is the process necessary to convert those records into the functional currency, with the objective of reflecting the same results as if the records had been maintained in the functional currency. Monetary balances are translated by using the current exchange rate, and non-monetary balances are translated by using historical exchange rates. In the event that remeasurement into the functional currency is required, it must be done prior to translation into the reporting currency. Reporting currency. The currency used by the entity to prepare its financial statements. Reporting enterprise. An entity or group of entities whose financial statements are being referred to. For the purposes of this discussion, those financial statements reflect (1) the financial statements of one or more foreign operations by combination, consolidation, or equity method accounting; (2) foreign currency transactions; or (3) both. Spot rate. The exchange rate for immediate delivery of currencies exchanged. Transaction date. The date on which a transaction (for example, a sale or purchase of merchandise or services) is recognized in accounting records in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. A long-term commitment may have more than one transaction date (for example, the due date of each progress payment under a construction contract is an anticipated transaction date). Transaction gain or loss. Transaction gains or losses result from a change in exchange rates between the functional currency and the currency in which a foreign currency transaction is denominated. They represent an increase or decrease in (1) the actual functional currency cash flows realized upon settlement of foreign currency transactions and (2) the expected functional currency cash flows on unsettled foreign currency transactions. Translation adjustments. Translation adjustments result from the process of translating financial statements from the entity’s functional currency into the reporting currency. Rules for translating FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS (FCT) into the entity’s FUNCTIONAL CURRENCY:

a.

A FCT shall be recorded, on initial recognition the functional currency, by applying to the foreign currency amount the spot exchange rate between the functional currency and the foreign currency at the date of the transaction.

b.

At each balance sheet date the foreign currency monetary item shall be adjusted to comform with the closing rate (the spot rate at the balance sheet date), which same adjustment is recognized as foreign exchange gain or foreign exchange loss, as the case maybe, and the carried to current income determination even though such gain or loss is unrealized. At the date of settlement, any difference between the book carrying value of the foreign currency monetary item (established at the most recent balance sheet date) and the functional currency amount is recognized either as a foreign exchange gain or loss, as the case maybe, and carried to current income determination. The functional currency amount is calculated by applying to the foreign currency amount the spot exchange rate between the functional currency at the date of the settlement.

d. 1. 2. e.

Rules for translating LOCAL CURRENCY FS into FUNCTIONAL CURRENCY FS: Monetary assets and monetary liabilities are translated at the current rate existing at the balance sheet. Non-monetary assets and non-monetary liabilities are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction if carried at the historical cost or the exchange rate at the date of revaluation if carried at the fair value. Stockholders equity items are translated using historical rates (i.e. the exchange rates at the original transaction dates), except retained earnings which is translated by the components. The only time retained earnings maybe translated by the use of a single exchange rate is at the date of acquisition, using the exchange rate at the date. Revenues and the expenses are translated using the spot exchange rates at the transaction dates, for practical purposes, a weighted average current rate is used instead, except for the following: Depreciation expense and amortization expense will be translated using the historical rate of the fixes asset, and Cost of sales will be translated by components. This translation process is referred to as Monetary-Non-Monetary method. Any exchange difference that results from its application is carried to the income statement either as foreign exchange gain or loss. Rules for translating FUNCTIONAL CURRENCY FS into the selected PRESENTATION CURRENCY FS.

a. b.

c. d.

Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate existing at the balance sheet date. Stockholders’ equity items are translated using historical rates (i.e. the exchange rates at the original transaction dates), except retained earnings which is translated by the components. Retained Earnings may be translated by applying a single rate at the date of acquisition only, using the spot exchange rate at that date. Revenues and expenses are translated using the spot exchange rates at the date of the transaction. For practical purposes, a weighted average for the current period is used instead. This translation process is referred to as Current Rate Method and any exchange difference resulting from its application is called translation adjustment cumulatively (CTA) shown as a component of stockholders’ equity. Hedging Foreign Currency transactions. Companies with assets or liabilities denominated in foreign currency are exposed to the risk that the exchange rate might fluctuate, thus causing transaction gains and losses. A company wishing to eliminate this risk could enter a transaction called a hedge. Except for speculative hedges, which is a stand –alone contract, hedge agreements have underlying transactions that justify the creation of the hedge instrument. The underlying transaction is the hedge item, and the hedge instrument is the mechanism established to minimize adverse effects of changes in exchange rates on the hedged items.

1. 2.

In foreign currency hedges, there are two types of hedging instruments; Economic hedge instruments- Its main characteristic is that the fair value of the hedge instrument is established at the inception of the contract by agreement, followed by a full cash settlement upon expiry Derivative hedge instruments- Its main characteristic is that it will have a value of zero at inception of the contract; cash settlement is restricted to difference over or under the notional amount brought about by changes in the foreign exchange rate. The latter type qualifies for use in hedge accounting as described in PAS 39.

Forward Contract as Hedge of an Anticipated Cash Transaction in Foreign Currency. Entity A has the peso as its functional currency. It expects to purchase a machine for $10,000 on October 31, 20x6. Accordingly, it is exposed to the risk of increases in the dollar rate. If the dollar rate increases before the purchase takes place, the entity will have to pay more pesos to obtain the $10,000 that it will have to pay for the machine. To offset the risk of increases in the dollar rate, the entity enters into a forward contract on April 30, 20x6, to purchase $10,000 in six months for a fixed amount P500,000. Entity A designates the forward contract as a hedging instrument in a cash flow hedge of its exposure to increases in the dollar rate. On July 31 year end, the dollar has appreciated, such that $10,000 for delivery on October 31, 20x6, costs P550,000 on the market. Therefore, the forward contract has increased in fair value by P50,000 (i.e. the difference between the committed price of P500,000 and the current price of P550,000 ( ignoring for simplicity, the effects of differences in interest rates between the two currencies). Entity A still to expects to purchase the machine for $10,000, so it concludes that the hedge is 100 % effective. Because the hedge is fully effective, the entire change in the fair value of the hedging instrument is recognized directly in equity On October 31, 20x6, the dollar rate has further increased, such that $10,000 cost P560, 000 in the spot market. Therefore, the fair value of the forward contract has increased by P60, 000 ( i.e., the difference between the committed price of P500,000 and the spot price of P560,000. It still expects to purchase the machine for $10,000. Required: Prepare all the journal entries for the given information. Problem12.

Important notes on the above computations: An inception, the fair value of the forward contract is nil, there being no change between the contracted forward rate and the forward rate at that point. The subsequent fair value of the forward contract is determined by the change in forward rate from the inception date to the end of the current period, multiplied by the notional amount, then dividend by the distant factor. For example, at June 30, 2011, there is one month remaining in the contract. The fair value is P4,479, computed as follows: [P1,000,000x(P1.205- P1.20)] / (1+0.05/12) =P5,000 / 1.004167=P4979 The fair value of the forward contract is positive (receivable) because the amount payable by Sahara Company (P1,2000,000) is less than the amount receivable (P1,215,000) based on the spot rate at maturity were P1.19 instead, the fair value will be negative (payable) because the amount payable by Sahara (P 1,200,000) is more than the amount receivable (P 1,190.000),- P10,000,i.e [P1,000,000x (P1.19- P1.20)]=P10,000 / 1.0= P(10,000) The forward rate and the spot rate at maturity date are the same because the time value component of the forward contract.
