FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS: RECOGNITION AND MEASUREMENT<br />
62. If a reliable measure becomes available for a financial asset or financial<br />
liability for which such a measure was previously not available, <strong>and</strong> the asset<br />
or liability is required to be measured at fair value if a reliable measure is<br />
available (see paragraphs 48(c) <strong>and</strong> 49), the asset or liability shall be<br />
remeasured at fair value, <strong>and</strong> the difference between its carrying amount<br />
<strong>and</strong> fair value shall be accounted for in accordance with paragraph 64.<br />
63. If, as a result of a change in intention or ability or in the rare circumstance<br />
that a reliable measure of fair value is no longer available (see paragraphs<br />
48(c) <strong>and</strong> 49) or because the “two preceding financial years” referred to in<br />
paragraph 10 have passed, it becomes appropriate to carry a financial asset<br />
or financial liability at cost or amortized cost rather than at fair value, the<br />
fair value carrying amount of the financial asset or the financial liability on<br />
that date becomes its new cost or amortized cost, as applicable. Any previous<br />
gain or loss on that asset that has been recognized directly in net assets/equity<br />
in accordance with paragraph 64(b) shall be accounted for as follows:<br />
(a) In the case of a financial asset with a fixed maturity, the gain or loss<br />
shall be amortized to surplus or deficit over the remaining life of the<br />
held-to-maturity investment using the effective interest method. Any<br />
difference between the new amortized cost <strong>and</strong> maturity amount shall<br />
also be amortized over the remaining life of the financial asset using<br />
the effective interest method, similar to the amortization of a premium<br />
<strong>and</strong> a discount. If the financial asset is subsequently impaired, any<br />
gain or loss that has been recognized directly in net assets/equity is<br />
recognized in surplus or deficit in accordance with paragraph 76.<br />
(b) In the case of a financial asset that does not have a fixed maturity, the<br />
gain or loss shall remain in net assets/equity until the financial asset is<br />
sold or otherwise disposed of, when it shall be recognized in surplus or<br />
deficit. If the financial asset is subsequently impaired any previous<br />
gain or loss that has been recognized directly in net assets/equity is<br />
recognized in surplus or deficit in accordance with paragraph 76.<br />
Gains <strong>and</strong> Losses<br />
64. A gain or loss arising from a change in the fair value of a financial asset or<br />
financial liability that is not part of a hedging relationship (see paragraphs<br />
99–113), shall be recognized, as follows.<br />
(a) A gain or loss on a financial asset or financial liability classified as at<br />
fair value through surplus or deficit shall be recognized in surplus or<br />
deficit.<br />
(b) A gain or loss on an available-for-sale financial asset shall be<br />
recognized directly in net assets/equity through the statement of<br />
changes in net assets/equity (see IPSAS 1, except for impairment losses<br />
(see paragraphs 76–79) <strong>and</strong> foreign exchange gains <strong>and</strong> losses (see<br />
