CR – May 2019 – L3 – Q3 – Financial Instruments (IFRS 9, IAS 32, IAS 39)

Discuss the classification of financial assets under IFRS 9 and evaluate the appropriate accounting treatment of a loan granted to a special purpose entity.

Ariba Bank Plc. (the Bank) is a Tier 1 Bank in Nigeria with branch network across all the six geo-political zones of the country. Its credit portfolio is spread among many industries with a special focus on the oil and gas industry and real estate.

One of its major customers with a very good credit standing is Dunga Property Development Company (DPDC).

The management of DPDC recently approved a plan to build four shopping malls in major cities across the country. A special purpose entity was registered as a limited liability company, Dunga Malls Limited (DML), dedicated to the development and management of the malls. The project will be solely financed by a loan to be obtained from Ariba Bank. There will be no equity contribution from DPDC other than the minimum required by law to establish a company.

Ariba Bank has approved a loan of N80 billion at a fixed interest rate of 15% per annum payable annually in arrears. The loan has a maturity of 10 years with a moratorium of 3 years. There was no transaction cost and therefore the contractual rate is the same as the effective rate. The loan was granted directly to DML on 1 January, 2018.

The Financial Controller of Ariba Bank Plc. is concerned about the accounting treatment of the loan as IFRS 9 Financial Instrument was adopted by the bank during the year. He noted that the majority of the bank loans are classified at amortized cost in the statement of financial position, but the loans must pass certain tests before such classification.

The Chief Risk Officer noted in his memo that the arrangement is substantially the same as the other borrowing arrangements of the bank except that a borrowing entity would normally have equity or other assets that could be called upon by the bank in a case of default other than the asset being financed.

Required:
a. Discuss how financial assets are classified in accordance with the requirements of IFRS 9. (8 Marks)
b. Advise the Bank on how the loan granted to DML should be classified in the statement of financial position. (6 Marks)
c. Discuss, with supporting calculations, how the loan will be accounted for in the financial statement of the bank for the year ended 31 December, 2018. (6 Marks)
