NOTES PAYABLE
Essay Questions
1. What is a promissory note?
A promissory note is an unconditional promise in writing made by one person to another,
signed by the maker, engaging to pay on demand or at a fixed or determinable future time a
sum certain in money to order or to bearer.
2. Explain the "initial measurement" of note payable.
PFRS 9, paragraph 5.1.1, provides that a note payable shall be measured initially at fair value
minus transaction costs that are directly attributable to the issue of the note payable.
In other words, transaction costs are included in the measurement of note payable.
However, if the note payable is irrevocably designated at fair value through profit or loss, the
transaction costs are expensed immediately.
The "fair value" of the note payable is equal to the present value of the future cash payment
to settle the note payable.
The term "present value" is the discounted amount of the future cash outflow in settling the
note payable using the market rate of interest.
3. Explain the "subsequent measurement" of note payable.
PFRS 9, paragraph 5.3.1, provides that after initial recognition, a note payable shall be
measured either:
a. At amortized cost using the effective interest method.
b. At fair value through profit or loss if the note payable is designated irrevocably as
measured at fair value through profit or loss,
4. What is the "amortized cost" of note payable?
The amortized cost of note payable is the amount at which the note payable is measured
initially minus principal repayment, plus or minus the cumulative amortization using the
effective interest method of any difference between the initial carrying amount and maturity
amount. Simply stated, the difference between the face amount and present value of the
note payable is amortized through interest expense using the effective interest method.
Actually, the difference between the face amount and present value is either discount or
premium on the issue of note payable.

5. Explain the "fair value option" of measuring note payable.
PFRS 9, paragraph 4.2.2, provides that at initial recognition, a note payable may be
irrevocably designated as at fair value through profit or loss. In other words, under the fair
value option, the note payable shall be measured initially at fair value and remeasured at
every year-end at fair value and any changes in fair value are recognized in profit or loss.
There is no amortization of transaction cost, discount and premium on note payable. As a
matter of fact, interest expense is recognized using the nominal or stated interest rate and
not the effective interest rate.
6. On January 1, 2013, an entity borrowed from a bank P4,000,000 on a 12% 5-year interest
bearing note. The entity received P4,000,000 which is the fair value of the note on January
1, 2013. Transaction cost of P 100,000 was paid by the entity. The fair value of the note
payable was P3,500,000 on December 31, 2013 and P3,800,000 on December 31, 2014.
The entity has elected irrevocably the fair value option for measuring the note payable.
Prepare all journal entries for 2013 and 2014.

Debt Restructure
Essay Questions: Debt Restructure Page 3
7. Explain briefly the treatment of the following:
a. Note issued solely for cash
b. Interest bearing note issued for property
c. Noninterest bearing note issued for property
a. When a note is issued solely for cash, the present value is equal to the cash proceeds.
b. When a property or noncash asset is acquired by issuing a promissory note which is
interest bearing, the property or asset is recorded at the purchase price. The purchase
price is reasonably assumed to be the present value of the note and therefore, the fair
value of the property because the note issued is interest bearing.
c. When a noninterest bearing note is issued for property, the property is recorded at the
cash price of the property.
The cash price is assumed to be the present value of the note issued. The difference
between the cash price and the face of the note issued represents the imputed interest.
The imputed interest is based on the sound philosophy that no lender would part away
with money or property interest-free.
DEBT RESTRUCTURE
Essay Questions
1. Explain "dacion en pago".
Dacion en pago arises when a mortgaged property is offered by the debtor in full settlement
of the debt. This transaction shall be accounted for as an "asset swap" form of debt
restructuring.
This requires recognition of gain or loss based on the balance of the obligation including
accrued interest and other charges.
If the balance of the obligation including accrued interest and other charges is more than the
carrying amount of the property mortgaged, there is a gain on extinguishment of debt.
Otherwise, if the balance of the obligation is less than the carrying amount of property
mortgaged, there is a loss on extinguishment of debt.
2. What is meant by "debt restructuring?"
Debt restructuring is a situation where the creditor, for economic or legal reasons related to
the debtor's financial difficulties, grants to the debtor concession that would not otherwise be
granted in a normal business relationship.
The concession either stems from an agreement between the creditor and debtor, or is
imposed by law or a court.
The objective of the creditor in a debt restructuring is to make the best of a bad situation or
maximize recovery of investment.
FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING
Essay Questions: Debt Restructure Page 4
Thus, the creditor usually sustains an accounting loss on debt restructuring and the debtor
realizes an accounting gain.
3. What are the common forms of debt restructuring?
The common forms of debt restructuring are:
a. Asset swap
b. Equity swap
c. Modification of terms
4. Explain an asset swap.
Asset swap is the transfer of any asset such as real estate, inventory or investment by the
debtor to the creditor in full settlement of an obligation.
Under PFRS 9, paragraphs 3.3.1 and 3.3.3, asset swap is treated as a derecognition of a
financial liability or extinguishment of an obligation.
The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability and the consideration
given shall be recognized in profit or loss.
5. Explain an equity swap.
An "equity swap" is a transaction whereby a debtor and creditor may renegotiate the terms
of a financial liability with the result that the liability is fully or partially extinguished by the
debtor issuing equity instruments to the creditor. Simply stated, equity swap is the issuance
of share capital by the debtor to the creditor in full or partial payment of an obligation.
6. How should an entity initially measure the equity instruments issued to extinguish a financial
liability?
This accounting issue of "extinguishment of a financial liability by issuing equity instruments"
is now well-settled under IFRIC 19.
IRFIC 19 provides that when equity instruments issued to extinguish all or part of a financial
liability are recognized initially, an entity shall measure the equity instruments at the fair value
of the equity instruments issued, unless that fair value cannot be reliably measured.
If the fair value of the equity instruments issued cannot be reliably measured, the equity
instruments shall be measured to reflect the fair value of the financial liability extinguished.
Needless to say, if both the fair value of the equity instruments issued and the fair value of
the financial liability extinguished cannot be measured reliably, the equity instruments issued
shall be measured at the "carrying amount of the financial liability extinguished".
Debt Restructure
Essay Questions: Debt Restructure Page 5
Accordingly, the equity instruments issued to extinguish a financial liability shall be measured
at the following amounts in the order of priority:
a. Fair value of equity instruments issued
b. Fair value of liability extinguished
c. Carrying amount of liability extinguished
The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability extinguished and the
"initial measurement" of the equity instruments issued shall be recognized in profit or loss.
Such gain or loss on extinguishment shall be disclosed as a separate line item in the income
statement.
7. Explain modification of terms of a financial liability.
Modification of terms of a financial liability may involve either the interest or maturity value or
both.
Interest concession may involve a reduction of the interest rate, forgiveness of unpaid interest
or a moratorium on interest payment. Maturity value concession may involve an extension
of the maturity date or reduction of the amount to be paid at maturity. PFRS 9, paragraph
3.3.2, provides that a substantial modification of terms of an existing financial liability shall be
accounted for as an extinguishment of the old financial liability and the recognition of a new
financial liability
Under Application Guidance B3.3.6 of PFRS 9, there is substantial modification of terms if
the gain or loss on extinguishment is at least 10% or 10% or more of the carrying amount of
the old financial liability. The difference between the carrying amount of the old liability and
the present value of new or restructured liability shall be accounted for as gain or loss on
extinguishment. The present value of the new liability shall be determined using the original
effective interest rate. Any costs or fees incurred as a result of the substantial modification
of terms shall be recognized as part of gain or loss on extinguishment.
8. Explain the accounting procedure if there is no substantial modification of terms of the old
financial liability.
Under Application Guidance B3.3.6, if the gain or loss on extinguishment of the old liability is
less than 10% of the carrying amount of the old liability, there is no substantial modification
of terms. In this case, the gain or loss is not recognized because the modification is not an
extinguishment of the old liability. Any costs incurred in modifying the terms are adjusted to
the carrying amount of the old liability and amortized over the remaining term of the modified
liability. In other words, the old liability is simply continued but with modified interest charges.
Accordingly, a new effective interest rate must be computed to equate the carrying amount
of the old liability with the present value of the cash outflows of the modified liability.
