Derivative
A financial instrument that derives its value from the movement in commodity prices, foreign exchange rate, and interest rate of an underlying asset or financial instrument.
It is an executory contract, not a transaction, because it is an exchange of promises about future action.
They are used for hedging. They are also called hedging instruments.
It created rights and obligations that have the effect of transferring between the parties to the instrument the financial risks inherent in an underlying primary financial instrument.
Price risk
Uncertainty in the future price of an asset.
Credit risk
Uncertainty over whether a counterparty or the party on the other side of the contract will honor the terms of the contract.
Interest rate risk
Uncertainty about future interest rates and their impact on cash flows and the fair value of financial instruments.
Foreign exchange risk
Uncertainty about future Philippine peso cash flows stemming from assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency.
Underlying variable
A specified interest rate, commodity price, foreign exchange rate, index of prices or rates, and other variables that influence the value of a derivative. It may be a price or rate of an asset or a liability but not the assets or liability itself.
Forward contract
A contract to purchase or sell a commodity at a designated future date at a predetermined price; a private or over-the-counter contract between two parties. Banks are the typical counterparties.
Futures contract
A contract to purchase or sell a commodity at a designated future date at a predetermined price; a standardized contract traded on an exchange market and one party will never know who is on the other side of the contract. All cash settlements are made through the exchange market.
Option
A contract that gives the holder the right (not an obligation) to purchase or sell an asset at a specified price within a given future time period. A derivative that requires initial small payment for the protection against unfavorable movement in price. Thus, it must be paid for unlike an interest rate swap, forward contract and future contract.
Call option
Gives the holder the right to purchase an asset.
Put option
Gives the holder the right to sell an asset.
Interest rate swap (IRS)
A contract whereby two parties agree to exchange cash flows for future interest payments based on a contract of loan.
Hedging
Designating one or more hedging instruments so that their change in fair value is an offset, in whole or in part, to the change in fair value or cash flows of a hedged item. A means of protecting a financing loss or the structuring of transactions to reduce risk.
Fair value hedge
Protection against the risk from changes in fair value caused by fixed terms, rates, or prices.
Cash flow hedge
Protection against the risk from changes in cash flows caused by variable terms, rates, or prices.
Hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation
Involves an underlying variable which is the foreign currency.

Three types of relationship in hedging
Fair value hedge
Cash flow hedge
Hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation
Hedge Accounting
All derivatives are recognized as either “investment” assets or liabilities being recognized by either party, as market conditions change.
They are measured at fair values. A change in fair values requires the recognition of a gain or loss. A gain or loss on derivative financial instruments is accounted for depending on how the derivative is used.
Accounting in a gain or loss on derivative financial instruments when the derivative is used without hedging designation
Changes in fair value are recognized in earnings immediately.
Accounting in a gain or loss on derivative financial instruments when the derivative is used in Fair value hedge
Changes in fair value are recognized in earnings immediately. Gain or loss on the hedged risk should adjust the carrying amount of the hedged items and be recognized in earnings immediately.
Accounting in a gain or loss on derivative financial instruments when the derivative is used in Cash flow hedge
The effective portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument is reported in equity. The ineffective portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument is reported immediately in earnings.
Accounting in a gain or loss on derivative financial instruments when the derivative is used in Hedge of a net investment in foreign operation
The effective portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument is reported in equity. The ineffective portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument is reported immediately in earnings.

Objective of PAS 21 (The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates)
To prescribe how to include foreign currency transactions and foreign operations in the financial statements of an entity and how to translate financial statements into a presentation currency.
Functional Currency
The currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates; the entity’s own currency.
Presentation Currency
The currency in which the financial statements are presented.
Number of functional currencies an entity can have
Only one, but it can have one or more presentation currencies, if an entity decides to present its financial statements in more currencies.
Initial recognition of functional currency transactions
Shall be translated to functional currency by applying the spot exchange rate between the functional currency and the foreign currency at the date of the transaction.
Subsequent reporting of functional currency transactions
You should translate all monetary items in foreign currency using the closing rate, all non-monetary items at historical cost using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction (historical rate), and all non-monetary items at fair value using the exchange rate when fair value was measured.
How all exchange rate differences are reported in foreign exchange
Shall be recognized in profit or loss, with the following exceptions:
Exchange rate gains or losses on non-monetary items are recognized consistently with the recognition of gains or losses on an item itself.
Exchange rate gain or loss on a monetary item that forms a part of a reporting entity’s net investment in a foreign operation shall be recognized:
In the separate entity’s or foreign operation’s financial statements: in profit or loss
In the consolidated financial statements: initially in other comprehensive income and subsequently, on disposal of net investment in the foreign operation, they shall be reclassified to profit or loss.
Procedure when there is a change in functional currency
The entity applies the translation procedures related to the new functional currency prospectively from the date of the change.
Translation rules for entities in non-hyperinflationary economies
An entity should translate:
All assets and liabilities for each statement of financial position presented using the closing rate of that statement of financial position. This rule applies for goodwill and fair value adjustments.
All income and expenses and other comprehensive income items using the exchange rates at the date of transaction. PAS 21 permits using some period average rates for the practical reasons, but if the exchange rates fluctuate a lot during the reporting period, then the use of averages is not appropriate.
All resulting exchange differences shall be recognized in other comprehensive income as a separate component of equity.
However, when an entity disposes the foreign operation, then the cumulative amount of exchange differences relating to that foreign operation shall be reclassified from equity to profit or loss when the gain or loss on disposal is recognized.
Primary economic environment
Is normally the one in which the entity primarily generates and expends the cash.
Date of transaction
The date when the conditions for the initial recognition of an asset or liability are met in line with PFRS.
