Problem I

1. Indirect Exchange Rates

Philippine Viewpoint: 1 $ = P40; 1 Peso = $0.025 ($1/P40) 1 Singapore dollar = P32.00; 1 Peso = 0.03125 Singapore (1 Singapore

Dollar/P32)

2. FCU =                                  Peso                              

  =P8,000

= $200; or Direct Exchange Rate P40.00

= P8,000 x $1/P40 = $200

3. 4,000 Singapore dollars x P32 = P128,000

Problem IIa. Exchange rates:

Arrival Date Departure Date

Direct Exchange Rate

1 Singapore dollar = P33.00

(P33,000 / 1,000 Singapore dollars)

1 Singapore Dollar = P32.50

(P3,250 / 100 Singapore dollars)

Indirect Exchange Rate

P1.00 = .03 Singapore dollars

(1,000 Singapore dollars / P33,000)

P1.00 = .03 Singapore dollars

(100 Singapore dollars / P3,250))

2. The direct exchange rate has decreased. This means that the peso has strengthened during Mr. Alt's visit. For example, upon arrival, Mr. Alt had to pay P33 per each dollar. Upon departure, however, each dollar is worth just P32.50. This means that the relative value of the peso has increased or, alternatively, the value of the dollar has decreased.

3. The Philippine peso equivalent values for the 100 Singapore dollars are:

Arrival date100 dollars x P33.00 = P3,30

0Departure date

100 dollars x P32.50 = 3,250

Foreign Currency Transaction Loss P

Mr. Alt held dollars for a time in which the dollars was weakening against the peso. Thus, Mr. Alt experienced a loss by holding the weaker currency.

Problem III1. If the direct exchange rate increases, the peso weakens relative to the foreign

currency unit. If the indirect exchange rate increases, the peso strengthens relative to the foreign currency unit.

Problem VIThe entries to record these transactions and the effects of changes in exchange rates are as follows:

November 1, 20x4 (Transaction date):Equity investment (FVTPL)/Financial Asset …………… 3,840,000 Cash 3,840,000 To record the purchase of shares in Pineapple Computers at a cost of

$96,000 at the exchange rate of P40.

exchange rate of P53.

February 3, 20x5 (Settlement date):Accounts payable………………… 5,107,200Foreign currency transaction loss [$96,000 x (P53.80 – P53.20)] 57,600 Cash ($96,000 x P53.80)……………. 5,164,800 To record exchange loss on accounts payable in euros and settlement of accounts payable in euros at the spot rate of P53.80.

Note the following: The investment in Pineapple Computers, Inc shares is a non-monetary item

that is carried at fair value as it is classified as equity investment through profit or loss (or a financial asset – FVTPL refer PFRS 9). The investment is revalued and translated at the rate on the date of revaluation, that is, December 31, 20x4.

The equipment is translated at the spot rate at the date of purchase and, being a non-monetary item, is carried at cost. It is not adjusted for the change in the exchange rate at balance sheet date. The accounts payable in euros is a monetary item and is remeasured using the current/closing rate at balance sheet date. The exchange loss is expensed off to the income statement

It should be noted that since, the forward contract was not designated as a hedge, offsetting of gain or loss on the hedged item and hedging instrument is not allowed. Therefore, the foreign exchange gain due to revaluation of receivable from foreign currency receivable arising from forward contract will be reported separately, instead of being netted against the exchanges loss of P300 [(P.1865 – P.1835) x 100,000 FCs.]

29. c – the question is related to purchase transaction or exposed liability, therefore the

payment of the liability is equivalent to the spot rate on the date of settlement.

Foreign exchange currency gain P 1,000

It should be noted that since, the forward contract was not designated as a hedge, offsetting of gain or loss on the hedged item and hedging instrument is not allowed. Therefore, the foreign exchange gain due to revaluation of payable to foreign exchange dealer arising from forward contract will be reported separately, instead of being netted against the exchanges loss of P1,500 [(P.945 – P.93) x 100,000 FCs.]

34. c It was assumed that the forward contract was designated as a hedging instrument.

35. d It was stated in the requirement that the forward contract will not be used, therefore,

only the loss on hedged item will be recognized.

37. d – the amount of sales should be the spot rate on the date of transaction (or the balance sheet date - historical rate). I.e., P1.7241 x 10,000 FCs = P17,241.

40. a – since accounts payable is an exposed account meaning their value will fluctuate based on the spot exchange rates, the value of the accounts payable should be the value on May 8, i.e., the spot rate of P1.25 (P.15 x 2,000,000 FCs = P2,500,000).

42. e – in a two-transaction approach, the recognition of foreign exchange gain or loss is separate from the settlement, therefore, the amount of accounts payable to be settled should be the spot rate on the settlement date, i.e., P1.20 (P1.20 x 2,000,000 FCs = P2,400,000)
