FASSET ANNUAL REPORT
Other financial liabilities Other financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value, net of transaction costs. Other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, with interest expense recognised on an effective yield basis. The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments through the expected life of the financial liability, or, where appropriate, a shorter period.
Recognition The entity recognises statutory receivables as follows: • if the transaction is an exchange transaction, using the policy on Revenue from exchange transactions; • if the transaction is a non-exchange transaction, using the policy on Revenue from non-exchange transactions (Taxes and transfers); or • if the transaction is not within the scope of the policies listed in the above or another Standard of GRAP, the receivable is recognised when the definition of an asset is met and, when it is probable that the future economic benefits or service potential associated with the asset will flow to the entity and the transaction amount can be measured reliably. Initial measurement The entity initially measures statutory receivables at their transaction amount. Subsequent measurement The entity measures statutory receivables after initial recognition using the cost method. Under the cost method, the initial measurement of the receivable is changed subsequent to initial recognition to reflect any: • interest or other charges that may have accrued on the receivable (where applicable); Derecognition The entity derecognises a statutory receivable, or a part thereof, when: • the rights to the cash flows from the receivable are settled, expire or are waived; • the entity transfers to another party substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the receivable; or • the entity, despite having retained some significant risks and rewards of ownership of the receivable, has transferred control of the receivable to another party • impairment losses; and • amounts derecognised.
1.7 Statutory receivables Identification
Statutory receivables are receivables that arise from legislation, supporting regulations, or similar means, and require settlement by another entity in cash or another financial asset.
Carrying amount is the amount at which an asset is recognised in the statement of financial position.
The cost method is the method used to account for statutory receivables that requires such receivables to be measured at their transaction amount, plus any accrued interest or other charges (where applicable) and, less any accumulated impairment losses and any amounts derecognised. Nominal interest rate is the interest rate and/or basis specified in legislation, supporting regulations or similar means. The transaction amount (for purposes of this Standard) for a statutory receivable means the amount specified in, or calculated, levied or charged in accordance with, legislation, supporting regulations, or similar means.
