, NON-CURRENT ASSETS HELD FOR SALE
Classification
- There are 3 requirements
- As soon as a non-current asset meets ALL the criteria below ( the 3 requirements AND 5 requirements of highly
probable) then you can RECLASSIFY the non-current asset as held for sale
- Non current assets which meet the criteria as held for sale :
o Shown separately in SFP as CURRENT asset (reclassify from non-current to current assets)
o Measured @ LOWER of :
▪ Carrying amount
▪ FV less cost to sell
o Ceases depreciation (STOP depreciation from date of reclassification )
1) Non currents asset of which the Intention is from sale rather than to hold
carrying amounts are primarily
recovered from sale rather than
continued use
2) Non-current asset must: IE the entity has intention and ability to transfer asset to buyer in its present
a. Be available for immediate condition, IMMEDIATELY
sale subject only to terms • So basically, asset must be ready as it is (so if an asset needs to be
that are usual and customary repaired/maintenance first this will not meet this requirement)
for sales of such assets
b. AND sale must be highly 1) Appropriate level of management is committed to sales plan
probable: • For example, directors at formal meeting
(5 requirements must ALL be met for • It can’t be something that admin personnel discussed etc
highly probable)
2)Active program to find buyer and to complete the plan must have commenced
• For example a task team has been appointed and they are actively
working to locate a buyer
3)Asset must be actively marketed at price that is reasonable in comparison with
its current fair market value
• For example, asset is advertised at fair value, cant be at an excessive or
too low from market value
• The project team does market the assets at fair value and a buyer is likely
4)Sale must be completed within one year after date of classification as held for
sale (except for par.9)
• For example : the sale is expected to realize within 3 months based on
negotiations with possible buyer
THERE is an exception to this:
(2 requirements) ( if the time is longer than 1 year)
➢ The delay is caused by events outside of the entity’s control AND
➢ There is proof that the entity is committed to the sale
IF these 2 requirements are met then they can still be recognized as a non-current
asset held for sale!!!
5)Actions to complete the plan indicates that it is unlikely that significant changes
will be made to the plan or that the plan will be withdrawn
