IAS 21: FOREIGN EXCHANGE (TRANSACTIONS):IAS 21
A company can engage in different foreign activities.
Ito IAS 21, Foreign activities →

SA company buying/selling in dollars, Euros or Pounds.
(2) may have a foreign operation (Sub or Ass) [Group Statements]
Also the rules of presentation of FSs in a foreign currency will be specifically discuses
Two issues:
1] What is the exchange rate that need to be used for the transaction?
2] Treatment of effect of change in exchange rate? (E.g. when paying a creditor where the rate differs from
the transaction date)
SCOPE (.03-.07)
DEFINITIONS (.08)
− Closing rate: At year-end
− Exchange difference: Between two dates
− Exchange rate: E.g. 1 Euro = R16,07
− Functional currency: E.g. SA Co, = ZAR; Co. in London = British Pound
− Monetary items: Cash & immediately convertible into cash = debtors, creditors and loans
− Spot exchange rate: On specific date
ELABORATION ON DEFINITIONS (.09-.16)

− .19: E.g. for foreign investors
REPORTING FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS IN THE FUNCTIONAL CURRENCY (.20-.37)
Three date:
[1] Transaction date: Date the risk of the purchase transferred (Shipment terms: FOB; CIF → DATE OF
SHIPMENT)
E.g. Dt Inventory (SFP) (AT SPOT RATE)
Ct Creditors (SFP) (AT SPOT RATE) A
[2] Year-end
Remeasure monetary item at closing rate = spot rate at the end of the year
E.g. Dt Exchange difference (P/L)
Ct Creditors (SFP) B
[3] Settlement date (date of payment to a creditor or from a debtor)
Remeasure monetary item at spot rate on settlement date
To ensure correct value for settlement of creditor.
E.g. Dt Exchange difference (P/L)
Ct Creditors (SFP) C

E.g. Dt Creditor (SFP) (A + B + C)
Ct Bank (SFP)
Initial recognition:
− [1]
− .22: E.g. interest
1
, Reporting at the end of subsequent reporting periods:
− [2]
− .23: (a) E.g. debtors, creditors and loans
− .24: (b) Non-monetary item (Inventory, PPE or goodwill) is left as is – no translation – say at initial
spot rate at transaction date
Recognition of exchange differences:
− [3]
− .28: Exchange differences arising from settlement (payment)/ translation of monetary items (@ year
end)
− .30: Exchange differences that is part of a profit or loss on non-monetary items
o Recognize where the P/L is recognized (either profit or loss or other comprehensive income)
o E..g sale of asset (PPE item)
▪ PPE @ CP → P/L
▪ PPE @ FV (REV) → OCI
