Recognition of PPE<br />
Stage 1 Stage 2 Stage 3<br />
PPE asset recognition<br />
principle is from <strong>the</strong><br />
<strong>Framework</strong> :<br />
Stage 1 + focus on<br />
<strong>teaching</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />
judgements<br />
- probable FEBs associ<strong>at</strong>ed necessary to identify<br />
with <strong>the</strong> item will flow to PPE. Some egs:<br />
<strong>the</strong> entity<br />
- imm<strong>at</strong>erial items<br />
- cost of <strong>the</strong> item can be<br />
measured reliably<br />
- backup gener<strong>at</strong>or<br />
<strong>at</strong> hospital<br />
(IAS16.7)<br />
- day-to-day<br />
Cre<strong>at</strong>es awareness of servicing<br />
judgements (eg wh<strong>at</strong> is - replacement parts<br />
m<strong>at</strong>erial, probable and<br />
reliable).<br />
- major inspections<br />

Reinforce<br />
understanding and<br />
develop competence<br />
in making <strong>the</strong><br />
judgements necessary<br />
to recognise assets.<br />
Some ideas:<br />
- cross-cutting issues<br />
class discussions<br />
- advanced tutorials<br />

Measurement of PPE <strong>at</strong> recognition<br />
Stage 1 Stage 2 Stage 3<br />
At initial recognition: cost = cash<br />
price equivalent <strong>at</strong> recognition d<strong>at</strong>e.<br />
Cost comprises:<br />
- purchase price<br />
- costs directly <strong>at</strong>tributable to bring<br />
item to loc<strong>at</strong>ion and condition<br />
necessary for it to be capable of<br />
oper<strong>at</strong>ing as intended by mgt.<br />
- initial estim<strong>at</strong>e of costs of<br />
dismantling and removing and<br />
restoring <strong>the</strong> site.<br />
Cre<strong>at</strong>e awareness of judgements.<br />

Stage 1 + focus on<br />
judgements to measure<br />
cost. Some egs:<br />
- self constructed<br />
- borrowing costs<br />
- dismantling etc<br />

- exchange<br />
transactions<br />

Measurement<br />
• Measurement is <strong>the</strong> process of determining <strong>the</strong><br />
monetary amounts <strong>at</strong> which <strong>the</strong> recognised<br />
elements are carried.<br />
• <strong>IFRS</strong> measurements are largely <strong>based</strong> on<br />
estim<strong>at</strong>es, judgements and models.<br />
• The measurement part of <strong>the</strong> <strong>Framework</strong> is weak<br />
and IASB has a project to replace it<br />
• Measurement determined <strong>at</strong> <strong>the</strong> standards level.<br />
Therefore, inconsistent use across <strong>IFRS</strong><br />
33<br />
Measurement of PPE 34<br />
• Because measuring PPE requires significant<br />
estim<strong>at</strong>es and judgements, it is important th<strong>at</strong> students<br />
be taught those requirements in a way th<strong>at</strong> prepares<br />
<strong>the</strong>m to make those judgements and estim<strong>at</strong>es.<br />

Measurement concepts 35<br />
• Measurement is <strong>the</strong> process of determining monetary<br />
amounts <strong>at</strong> which elements are recognised and<br />
carried. (4.54)<br />
• To a large extent, financial reports are <strong>based</strong> on<br />
estim<strong>at</strong>es, judgements and models r<strong>at</strong>her than exact<br />
depictions. The <strong>Framework</strong> establishes <strong>the</strong> concepts<br />
th<strong>at</strong> underlie those estim<strong>at</strong>es, judgements and models<br />
(OB11)<br />
• IASB guided by objective and qualit<strong>at</strong>ive<br />
characteristics when specifying measurements.<br />

Measurement section of <strong>Framework</strong> 36<br />
• Measurement section of <strong>Framework</strong> is weak―only<br />
lists some measurement methods used in practice:<br />
– historical cost: cash paid or fair value of consider<strong>at</strong>ion<br />
given<br />
– current cost: cash th<strong>at</strong> would be paid if acquired now<br />
– realisable (settlement) value: cash th<strong>at</strong> could be<br />
obtained by selling <strong>the</strong> asset now<br />
– present value: present discounted value of future net<br />
cash inflows th<strong>at</strong> <strong>the</strong> item is expected to gener<strong>at</strong>e<br />
– market value: listed but not described in <strong>Framework</strong>.<br />
For fair value see <strong>IFRS</strong> 13 Fair Value Measurements<br />
