SOLUTIONS TO BRIEF EXERCISES
Â
BRIEF EXERCISE 14.1
Â
- A bond’s credit rating is a reflection of credit quality. The BBB credit rating of the bond at the time of issuance reflected an assessment of the company’s ability to pay the amounts that will be due on that specific bond. With four consecutive quarters of increasing losses and deteriorating financial position in 2020, and new competition in the industry, credit analysts may downgrade the bond’s credit rating to below investment grade.
Â
- The market closely monitors a bond’s credit rating when determining the required yield and pricing of bonds at issuance and in periods after issuance. If the bond’s credit rating is downgraded, the yield required by investors will likely increase, and the price of the bonds will likely decrease, to compensate the bondholder for the additional risk associated with that specific bond.

BRIEF EXERCISE 14.2
Â
- Financing is generally obtained through three sources: borrowing, issuing shares, and/or using internally generated funds. Leverage (or using borrowed money to increase returns to shareholders) can maximize returns to shareholders, and the related interest paid is tax deductible. However, borrowed funds must be repaid and can increase liquidity and solvency risk. Issuing shares does not increase liquidity and solvency risk; however, it may result in dilution of ownership. Using internally generated funds may be appropriate if the company’s business model is generating excess funds.
Â
- Based on the information provided, borrowing is the most suitable source of financing for Jensen & Jensen. With a debt to total assets ratio of 55%, Jensen & Jensen is underleveraged compared to similar size competitors operating in the same industry. This means that Jensen & Jensen may not be maximizing returns to shareholders, and that the company may be able to finance the expansion by borrowing and still maintain an acceptable level of liquidity and solvency risk. As a telecommunications equipment manufacturer, Jensen & Jensen operates in a capital-intensive industry, and a lender may be able to structure the lending agreement in such a way as to secure the loan with the company’s underlying tangible assets. Further, issuing shares is not ideal given the owners’ desire to keep the company closely held.

Â
(c) Â Â Â When a note or bond is issued, it should be recognized at fair value adjusted by any directly attributable issue costs. However, note that where the liability will subsequently be measured at fair value (e.g., under the fair value option or because it is a derivative), the transaction costs should not be included in the initial measurement (i.e., the costs should be expensed) [CPA Canada Handbook, Part II, Section 3856.07 and IFRS 9.5.1.1].
Â
(d)Â Â Â Â If the bonds were trading on the market for over their face value, this would imply that the bonds were not actually issued at face value, but rather that the interest rate paid on the bonds exceeds market rate, and thus, the bonds are trading at a premium. This reflects the fair value hierarchy, whereby observable market prices for identical assets and liabilities is first on the hierarchy, and thus, if fair value was being used to record these bonds, their value would be higher than what is currently recorded.

BRIEF EXERCISE 14.20
Â
This is a situation where a currently maturing liability (a current liability) at year end is expected to be refinanced on a long-term basis.
Â
Under IFRS, this loan liability is required to be reported as a current liability on the December 31 financial statements because it was not refinanced by the reporting date. The only exception permitted would be if the refinancing that extends the repayment terms was done under an agreement that existed at December 31 and the decision about the refinancing is solely up to the discretion of the entity’s management.
Â
The ASPE standard, however, allows more flexibility. The maturing debt is required to be reported as a current liability unless it has been refinanced on a long-term basis or there is a non-cancellable agreement to do so before the financial statements are completed, and there is nothing that prevents completion of the refinancing. Because the entity’s financial statements would not have been completed as soon as two days after the reporting date (December 31) when the new agreement was finalized, ASPE would permit the debt to be included with long-term liabilities.

BRIEF EXERCISE 14.21
Â
Since the present value of the future cash flows of the new debt differs by an amount larger than 10% of the present value of the old debt, the renegotiated debt is considered a settlement. A gain/loss is recorded by Lawrence (debtor) and no interest is recorded by the debtor. This is not considered a modification of terms. The old debt is removed from the books of Lawrence with a gain/loss being recognized, and the new debt is recorded.

Â
- Steinem’s liquidity has improved. As a result of this transaction, the company’s SFP will show $1 million more cash, and $1 million less accounts receivable (a less liquid asset than cash).
Â
- Steinem’s SFP will not show increased debt or equity as a result of this transaction. The cash was generated by the special purpose entity, which sold shares to its investors.
Â
- This transaction is an example of off–balance sheet financing.
Â
- From the perspective of an investor, there is a risk that the special purpose entity is being used primarily to make Steinem’s SFP and liquidity position appear better. As a general rule, special purpose entities should be consolidated with the main company when the main company is the primary beneficiary.

BRIEF EXERCISE 14.25
Â
Debt-paying ability may be evaluated by calculating the debt to total assets ratio:
Â
2020 – $500,000 / $900,000= 56%
2019 – $750,000/$ 700,000 = 107%
Â
Sports International’s debt to assets ratio improved significantly from 2019 to 2020, so their debt-paying ability and long-term solvency has improved.
Â
Debt-paying ability may also be evaluated by calculating the current ratio:
Â
2020 – $120,000 / $100,000 = 1.20
2019 – $140,000 / $150,000 = 0.93
Â
Based on Sports International’s current ratio, their ability to meet short-term payment requirements in 2020 improved from 2019.

Â
EXERCISE 14.2 (CONTINUED)
Â
- Similarities and differences among the bond features and their impact on risk are as follows:
Â
– bond maturity (duration) – The bonds all have the same maturity date (duration), thus this risk factor is equalized among the bonds.
– bond stated rate and effective interest rate – The bonds all have a different stated interest rate (ranging from a deep discount, zero-coupon bond of 0% to 13%). A discount on bonds payable results when investors demand a rate of interest higher than the rate stated on the bonds. This occurs when the investors are not satisfied with the stated nominal interest rate because they can earn a greater rate on alternative investments of equal risk. They refuse to pay par for the bonds and cannot change the stated nominal rate. However, by lowering the amount paid for the bonds, investors can alter the effective rate of interest. A premium on bonds payable results from the opposite conditions. That is, when investors are satisfied with a rate of interest lower than the rate stated on the bonds, they are willing to pay more than the face value of the bonds in order to acquire them, thus reducing their effective rate of interest below the stated rate. In this case, all the bonds are set to yield an effective interest rate of 12%, which adjusts the pricing of each individual bond so that they are all equally attractive to investors (purely on interest rates).
– timing of cash flows – The bonds all have differing timing of cash flow to the investors. This can affect their risk, as cash flows further in the future have a higher risk factor than cash flows in the present.
Â
– bond security – Bonds security affects the risk of the bond. In the event of default, a secured bond will rank higher than an unsecured bond. Thus, unsecured bonds are generally riskier than secured bonds. Presumably the mortgage bonds have security.
Â
EXERCISE 14.2 (CONTINUED)
- (continued)
All the above factors have to be assessed together to determine the riskiness of each bond. The zero-coupon bonds have no cash flows over the entire 10-year term, making them riskier in that the company may not be able to pay back the $2.5 million at that time. On the other hand, the zero-coupon bonds may have more security underlying them than the 13% bonds that are listed as unsecured. The mortgage bonds are the least risky with the interest cash flows spread over the life of the bonds, and with physical property pledged as collateral in the case of inability of Anaconda to pay the principal or interest. Further information is required, however, about the fair value of the underlying collateral.

- Although the effective interest method is required under IFRS per IFRS 9.5.4.1, accounting standards for private enterprises do not specify that this method must be used and therefore, the straight-line method is also an option. The straight-line method is valued for its simplicity and might be used by companies whose financial statements are not constrained by this specific element of GAAP.
