Featuring 994 new and updated case-based questions, organized into seven core areas of process design, this Self-Assessment will help you identify areas in which Hedge Accounting improvements can be made.

Examples; 10 of the 994 standard requirements:


1. Which of the level is used to determine whether the hedging instruments are designated to the net exposure item or to the gross exposure item with larger absolute value of the relevant analysis item?
   
   

2. How should the discontinuance of a cash flow hedge of variable interest rate payments be accounted for when hedge accounting is discontinued because the hedge fails an effectiveness test?
   
   

3. How should the discontinuance of a fair value hedge of an available for sale investment be accounted for when hedge accounting is discontinued because the hedge designation is revoked?
   
   

4. Are forecast inter organization dividends which are undeclared and expected to be paid and received in a foreign currency an eligible hedged item in consolidated financial statements?
   
   

5. What factors should be considered in determining whether a risk component is implicit in the fair value or cash flows of an entire item, in order to be an eligible hedged component?
   
   

6. Do you believe that fair value is the only measurement attribute that is appropriate for all types of financial instruments within the scope of a standard for financial instruments?
   
   

7. Which of the calculation type controls the creation of the hypothetical derivative, the decomposition of the market rate components, and the creation of the market value components?
   
   

8. Do you foresee any significant operational concerns or constraints relating to the potential need to rebalance the hedging relationship to continue to qualify for hedge accounting?
   
   

9. Do you agree that a non derivative financial asset and a non derivative financial liability measured at fair value through profit or loss should be eligible hedging instruments?
   
   

10. Do you foresee any significant operational concerns, including auditing issues, in determining how to assess whether a hedge achieves other than accidental offset?
