What is an Asset ?
• An asset is a resource
• controlled by the entity
• as a result of past events and
• from which future economic benefits are expected to flow to
the entity

Revenue

Scope of PPE
PPE
Includes
Tangible Asset Held for Use
Producing Goods or
services
Rental to others
For administration
Purpose
Life>=12 Months
Excludes
Non current Asset
held for sale ( IND
AS 105)
Exploratory and
Evaluatory asset
linked to mining (
IND AS 106)
Biological asset for
agriculture use
(except bearer plants)
( IND AS 41)

4.
Key Rule
Before classification of an item into PPE, Investment or Inventory, the expenditure
should satisfy the asset definition and condition to recognize the asset as per the
framework.
Once it is recognized as an asset, considering the intention of usage it is classified as
PPE, Investment of inventory

5.
Case - 1
A Public limited company whose main object as stated in its moa is to purchase,
acquire, contract, develop, cultivate and sell agricultural and urban lands, buy large
plots of virgin lands, develops and cultivate them and sells them in small plots.
Land purchased by the company and the cost of development has been consistently
grouped under fixed asset in its BS. Comment

6.
Case – 1 - Solution
As Per IND AS 16. PPE is a tangible asset which is held for producing goods,
providing services, rental to others or administration purpose. The Main basis for
classification is intention of usage of the asset rather than the nature of the entity.
As per INDAS 2, Inventory is an asset which held for sale in the ordinary course of
business etc
In the given case, the entity is purchasing the land to develop and sell it in the
ordinary course of business. The land does not satisfy the definition of a PPE as per
IND AS 16. But it satisfies the definition of inventory as per INDAS 2. Hence
classifying it as inventory and presenting under current asset would be correct. The
Accounting treatment of company is not correct.

If the Fair value of items given up and received

However, if the Fair value differ and no
information is given on reliability , the following
order of preference to be followed
B. Initial Recognition (Special Cases)

9.
Lack of Commercial Substance
• A Transaction lacks commercial substance if the position of the company
remains the same before and after a barter i.e. the nature of expenses and
incomes are expected to remain similar pre and post barter.
• If similar asset are exchanged, we can consider that the transaction lacks
substance. If nothing is given, we will assume that a transaction has
commercial substance.

WDV of Old Part
• The cost of the old part can be found through the below sources ( in order of
Preference)
• Breakup from the suppliers invoice
• Fair value of the part at the time of purchase
• If the above value are not available , the cost of the new part (time value adjusted)would be taken
as the notional cost for the old part.
The WDV of the old part can be calculated by deducting depreciation applicable.

13.
Revaluation Model
1. Valuation Model should be selected separately for each class of PPE i.e. Asset having similar
nature and end use would form part of single class.
2. Revaluation should be done at sufficient intervals i.e. Annually for assets with volatile values
and every 3-5 years for asset with stable values
3. A change from cost to revaluation model or vice versa is treated as change in accounting
policy and will be retrospective applied (IND AS 8 ) unless impracticable.

15.
Transfer of Revaluation Surplus
The balance in the revaluation surplus ( non re classifiable OCI) may be written off to retained
earnings in the ratio of depreciation. However , the transfer from revaluation surplus should be
made directly to the retained earnings and should not be shown as income in the statement of
profit and loss.
At the time of sale, the remaining balance in revaluation surplus should be transferred to
retained earnings.

Component Component have

Any change will be applied prospectively
Depreciation of the component (Major Parts/ Inspection/ overhauls)
1. The Depreciation on each part should be based on useful life of the
part.
2. However if the part exceed the life of the asset , then it would be
appropriate to depreciate the part over the life of the part or the
remaining life of asset whichever is shorter.

17.
Changes in Provision for Site Restoration
Changes in provision
Cost Model
Adjust the present value
against the cost of PPE in the
year of change
Revaluation Model
Adjust the present value of changes against the balance in
revaluation surplus (if any) & excess if applicable to profit and loss
in the year of change
(alternative treatment of adjustment against cost is also possible)
