35.11 Optional exemptions – Individual and separate financial statements – carrying amount as deemed cost
35.11.1 Extract from FRS102: Section 35.10(f)

35.10(f) Individual and separate financial statements

When an entity prepares individual or separate financial statements, paragraphs 9.26, 14.4 and 15.9 require the entity to account for its investments in subsidiaries, associates, and jointly controlled entities either at cost less impairment or at fair value.

If a first-time adopter measures such an investment at cost, it shall measure that investment at one of the following amounts in its individual or separate opening statement of financial position, as appropriate, prepared in accordance with this FRS:

(i) cost determined in accordance with Section 9 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements, Section 14 Investments in Associates or Section 15 Investments in Joint Ventures; or

(ii) deemed cost, which shall be the carrying amount at the date of transition as determined under the entity’s previous GAAP.

35.11.2 OmniPro comment

The exemption in Section 35.10(f) of FRS 102 allows entities to deem the carrying amount stated for investments in subsidiaries, associate and joint ventures under previous GAAP as its deemed cost. Alternatively, where an entity intends to apply fair value accounting from transition, it can treat that amount as its deemed cost. Note however where an entity does not intend to apply fair value accounting going forward it cannot use the fair value as deemed cost going forward. If a fair value option is chosen an adjustment will be required on transition.

Alternatively as stated in Section 35.10(f)(i) of FRS 102 the entity can chose to apply FRS 102 guidance i.e. to state the investment:

See examples below which show how this would be accounted for.

Under old GAAP investment in subsidiaries in the individual financial statements could only be carried at cost less impairment. However on transition to FRS 102, these is a choice to either carry these are cost less impairment, fair value through profit and loss or fair value through OCI. Where investments in subsidiaries are recognised at fair value in the individual financial statements on transition to FRS 102, deferred tax will need to be recognised on transition as well as an adjustment to reflect the investment at its fair value. The deferred tax rate to be used depends on the tax rate that will be payable on settlement i.e. whether the investment is held for dividend income or for future sale. In reality it may be the sales tax rate.


Example 16: Adoption of fair value through profit and loss on transition

Company A in its individual financial statements has adopted a policy of fair valuing investments in subsidiaries through the profit and loss. Assume 1 January 2014 is the date of transition. The carrying value under old GAAP was CU100,000 at 1 January 2014 and 31 December 2014 & 2015 which represented the original cost. The fair value of the investment at 1 January 2014, 31 December 2014 and 31 December 2015 was CU120,000, CU95,000 and CU125,000 respectively. Assume a deferred tax rate of 20% (being the capital gain tax rate as it will be settled through sale for the purposes of this example).

The adjustments required on transition to reflect the fair value policy and the related deferred tax are:
