(v)PFRS 9, <strong>Financial</strong> Instruments: Classification and Measurement (effective fromJanuary 1, 2015). This is the first part of a new standard on classification andmeasurement of financial assets and financial liabilities that will replace PAS 39 in itsentirety. This chapter deals with two measurement categories for financial assets:amortized cost and fair value. All equity instruments will be measured at fair valuewhile debt instruments will be measured at amortized cost only if the entity is holdingit to collect contractual cash flows which represent payment of principal and interest.The accounting for embedded derivatives in host contracts that are financial assets issimplified by removing the requirement to consider whether or not they are closelyrelated, and, in most arrangement, does not require separation from the hostcontract.For liabilities, the standard retains most of the PAS 39 requirements which includeamortized-cost accounting for most financial liabilities, with bifurcation of embeddedderivatives. The main change is that, in case where the fair value option is taken forfinancial liabilities, the part of a fair value change due to an entity’s own credit risk isrecorded in other comprehensive income rather than in profit or loss, unless thiscreates an accounting mismatch.To date, other chapters of PFRS 9 dealing with impairment methodology and hedgeaccounting are still being completed.<strong>BDO</strong> Unibank Group does not expect to implement and adopt PFRS 9 until itseffective date or until all chapters of this new standard have been published. Inaddition, management is currently assessing the impact of PFRS 9 on the financialstatements of <strong>BDO</strong> Unibank Group.(vi) PFRS 13, Fair Value Measurement (effective from January 1, 2013). This standard aimsto improve consistency and reduce complexity by providing a precise definition offair value and a single source of fair value measurement and disclosure requirementsfor use across PFRS. The requirements do not extend the use of fair valueaccounting but provide guidance on how it should be applied where its use is alreadyrequired or permitted by other standards. <strong>BDO</strong> Unibank Group is yet to assess theimpact of this new standard.(vii) Consolidation Standards PAS 27 (Revised), Separate <strong>Financial</strong> Statements (effective from January 1, 2013).This revised standard now covers the requirements pertaining solely to separatefinancial statements after the relevant discussions on control and consolidatedfinancial statements have been transferred and included in the new PFRS 10.No new major changes relating to separate financial statements have beenintroduced as a result of the revision.PAS 28 (Revised), Investments in Associate and Joint Venture (effective fromJanuary 1, 2013). This revised standard includes the requirements for joint ventures,as well as associates, to be accounted for using equity method following theissuance of PFRS 11, Joint Arrangement.www.bdo.com.ph 25
