IAS 31 – Overview Objective and scope Joint ventures Jointly controlled operations and jointly controlled assets Jointly controlled entities Disclosure

IAS 31 – Objective and Scope Joint venture - a contractual arrangement where two or more parties share in an economic activity over which they have joint control Joint control - regardless of actual ownership rights, the strategic financial and operating decisions, by contract, require unanimous consent of the venturers control in this IFRS has the same meaning as in other related IFRSs Venturer - an entity that has joint control over a joint venture Investor in a joint venture - a party to the venture without joint control Exceptions to IAS 31 venturers’ interests in jointly controlled entities held by venture capital organizations or mutual funds, unit trusts, and similar organizations that are accounted for at FVTPL

IAS 31 – Joint Ventures Variety of forms - jointly controlled operations, assets, or entities Joint control by at least two parties must be contractually established may be set out in the articles of incorporation or bylaws of the joint venture less formally through documentation of meetings between the venturers Contractual agreement: usually in writing sets out the governance structure of the joint venture the capital to be supplied by each venturer how the output, income, and expenses will be shared the purpose and duration of the venture

IAS 31 – Jointly Controlled Operations and Jointly Controlled Assets no separate entity established to conduct joint activities a venturer enters into an agreement with one or more venturers to produce, market, and distribute a specific product each venturer provides its specific operating expertise used to take advantage of the resources and abilities of the individual venturers each may agree to use their own assets, incur their own expenses and liabilities, and finance their own requirements Joint venture agreement sets out how revenue from the sale of the product worked on together is shared how shareable costs are to be allocated to venturers Recognized in the venturer’s financial statements (a) the assets that it controls and the liabilities it incurs (b) the expenses incurred and share of income earned from sale of goods or services by joint venture The venturer prepares no investment-related adjustments

IAS 31 – Jointly Controlled Operations and Jointly Controlled Assets each party to agreement takes a share of the output from the asset and pays an agreed share of costs incurred to operate it each venturer has control over its share of future economic benefits through its share of the asset no legal or other entity is formed separately from the venturers themselves Accounting for this form of joint venture is consistent with its economic substance and usually the legal form of the joint venture Recognized in the venturer’s financial statements (a) its share of specific jointly controlled assets and of liabilities incurred jointly with other venturers (b) liabilities incurred on its own (c) income from the sale or use of its share of the output of the venture along with its share of expenses incurred by the venture (d) expenses it has incurred relative to its interest in the venture

IAS 31 – Jointly Controlled Entities may be a corporation, a partnership, or other form of organization separate entity controls assets of the joint venture, incurs liabilities and expenses, and earns income each venturer usually has an ownership interest in the venture and is entitled to a share of its profits or output when organized, the individual venturers contribute cash or other assets in return for an ownership interest contributions are recognized by each venturer as an investment in the joint venture Jointly controlled entity records receipt of assets contributed to it and prepares and presents financial statements on the results of its operations and financial position

IAS 31 – Jointly Controlled Entities

IAS 31 – Jointly Controlled Entities Venturer’s accounting Choice of 2 methods to account for its investment proportionate consolidation (the preferred approach) equity method Entities that meet one of the following three conditions are excluded from applying one of the two methods: Interest in the jointly controlled entity is classified as “held for sale” under IFRS 5 Venturer meets exception in IAS 27.10 that qualifies parent with an interest in a jointly controlled entity not to present consolidated financial statements All of the following apply: (a) venturer is a wholly owned subsidiary or partially owned subsidiary whose other owners have been informed and do not object to the venturer not applying the proportionate consolidation or equity method (b) venturer does not have publicly traded debt or equity instruments (c) the venturer’s ultimate or intermediate parent produces consolidated financial statements for public use that comply with IFRSs

IAS 31 – Jointly Controlled Entities

IAS 31 – Jointly Controlled Entities Proportionate Consolidation inter-entity transactions, balances, unrealized profits, and losses are eliminated in proportion to the venturer’s interest preferred method because it reflects the “substance and economic reality of a venturer’s interest in a jointly controlled entity . . . and control over the venturer’s share of the future economic benefits” netting of assets and liabilities or income and expenses is not permitted unless legal right of offset exists and asset and liability are expected to be realized and settled, respectively choice of reporting formats Option 1: venturer’s share of each line item on venture’s financial statements is added to venturer’s line item on its financial statements Option 2: venturer’s share of each major classification of assets, liabilities, income, and expenses is identified as a separate line item within the same classification on venturer’s financial statements

IAS 31 – Jointly Controlled Entities Equity Method IASB Exposure Draft ED 9 Joint Arrangements issued in 2007 if the proposals are retained in the final standard, equity method will be the only method permitted many believe that having joint control is more similar to having significant influence than having control this supports the use of the equity method Survey of companies reporting in accordance with IFRSs in 2005 144 companies reporting investments in jointly controlled entities were equally split in use of proportionate consolidation and equity method significant country-specific differences in the use of each method strongly influenced by the methods required by national reporting standards prior to adoption of IFRS

IAS 31 – Jointly Controlled Entities Joint Control Is Lost When venturer no longer has joint control and the investment has not become a subsidiary or associate account for remaining investment under IAS 39 from date joint control was lost If the investment becomes a subsidiary investor accounts for this as a business combination under IFRS 3 and prepares consolidated financial statements according to IAS 27 If investment becomes an investment in an associate the investor applies IAS 28 When joint control is lost, any remaining investment is measured at its fair value and a gain or loss on disposal is recorded The gain or loss is the difference between carrying amount of investment when joint control is lost total of the fair value of retained investment and proceeds of disposal on the portion disposed of

IAS 31 – Jointly Controlled Entities Separate Financial Statements are those where subsidiaries and investments in associates and jointly controlled entities are accounted for on the basis of the direct equity interest - not on a basis related to investor’s interest in investee’s net assets and reported results IAS 27 helps determine the accounting for an interest in a jointly controlled entity for separate financial statements In effect, the investment is accounted for at cost or in accordance with IAS 39 Investments without Joint Control If an investor has an equity interest in a joint venture but is not a venturer investor applies IAS 28 if significant influence in the joint venture otherwise, it applies IAS 39

IAS 31 – Jointly Controlled Entities Transactions between a Venturer and a Joint Venture Accounted for as if venturer conducts transactions in part with the other non-related venturers and in part internally Transaction is assumed to take place with other venturers at arm’s-length the venturer recognizes that portion of the transaction and any associated gain or loss To extent the venturer is dealing with its own ownership interest that portion of the transaction and gain or loss is eliminated Requirements when a venturer contributes or sells assets to a joint venture, the venturer recognizes only the portion of any gain or loss that is associated with the other venturers’ interests - as the joint venture realizes the gain in its dealings with outside parties, the venturer then recognizes its portion of any gain or loss as realized

IAS 31 – Jointly Controlled Entities Transactions between a Venturer and a Joint Venture Requirements (continued) If a loss is evidence of a decline in the asset’s net realizable value or an impairment, then full loss is recognized immediately When joint venture sells assets to a venturer and reports a gain on the sale, the venturer does not recognize its share of the gain until it has sold the asset in turn to a third party - the venturer recognizes its share of any gain as it is realized Operators of Joint Ventures When a venturer acts as an operator or manager of a joint venture, it is usually paid a fee for these services the joint venture recognizes the fee paid as an expense and the venturer refers to IAS 18 to determine how to account for the fee received

IAS 31 – Disclosure Disclosures for Consolidated Financial Statements Explanations of why an entity is a subsidiary when investor does not own more than half the voting power Information about date of a subsidiary’s financial statements if different from the date of parent company’s statements Information about any significant restrictions on ability of subsidiary to pay cash dividends and to transfer funds to parent to repay loans/advances Effects of changes in parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control Gain or loss recognized on the loss of control of a subsidiary

IAS 31 – Disclosure A venturer reports information about its joint ventures description of the interest proportion of ownership interest held method it uses to recognize this interest Totals reported by venturer that relate to its joint venture interests if line-by-line proportionate consolidation or the equity method is used amount of current assets long-term assets current liabilities long-term liabilities income expenses Other venturer disclosures potential obligations associated with contingent liabilities commitments of joint ventures separately from those of venturer itself

Looking Ahead Accounting for investments in joint ventures originally a part of the IASB’s short-term convergence project with FASB IASB now conducts the joint ventures project alone Objective of the joint ventures project to eliminate the choice now allowed in IAS 31 to clarify the definitions of joint assets and joint operations IASB reviewing the responses to its 2007 Exposure Draft, ED 9 Joint Arrangements expects to issue a final IFRS entitled Joint Arrangements in late 2009

Looking Ahead Tentative decisions exposed in ED 9, Joint Arrangements • Types of interests parties could have in a joint arrangement direct interests (interests in joint operations or joint assets) indirect interests (interest in a joint venture) • A party to a joint arrangement should recognize its contractual rights and obligations according to applicable IFRSs • A party should recognize its interest in a joint venture using the equity method proportionate consolidation not allowed • Disclosures aligned with those required for investments in associates Except for the elimination of the use of proportionate consolidation, these changes are not expected to result in significant differences in the profit or loss and financial position of parties to these joint arrangements
