Company profile and case conventions

Dornel SA (fictitious entity) closes its accounts on 31 December 20X6; its functional currency is the euro. Case conventions: amounts in EUR; the flows of the maturity table are those of the contracts, without discounting; case convention (pedagogical assumption, not attributed to IFRS 7): the floating rate of the closing date applies to all the future interest; the reconciliation of the loss allowance contains no recovery and no transfer; the effect on equity equals the effect on profit or loss before tax; the entries are illustrative.

Context

Dornel SA (fictitious entity) closes its accounts on 31 December 20X6. The preparer builds the file of the notes on financial instruments, submitted to a review check: classes of the line item of receivables and investments, credit risk of the trade receivables, maturities and sensitivity of the debt, transfer of receivables with limited recourse. Teaching simulation: the review trail of the file (preparation, reviewer notes and final sign-off) is simulated for demonstration purposes; it is neither a real review nor a validation of the content.

Assignment

Maturities and sensitivity of the debt

Purpose of the workpaper

Enter in each maturity bucket the contractual cash flows of the financial liabilities as they appear in the contract and without discounting (convention of the table), add them by bucket and in total, compare the total with the carrying amount, and calculate the effect on profit or loss of a reasonably possible change in the risk variable. The buckets, the flows and the change are case data; the change is a judgment of the entity and is not imposed by the standard.

Questions of the file covered by this workpaper

  • Compute the total of the flows of the first maturity bucket.
  • Compute the total of the flows of the second maturity bucket.
  • Compute the total of the undiscounted contractual cash flows.
  • Compute the difference between the total of the flows and the carrying amount.
  • Is the change in rates retained reasonably possible, in view of the documents?
  • Compute the effect on profit or loss of the increase retained.
