ANSWER ASSIGNMENT 5

A. Discuss TWO (2) major procedural differences in applying the current rate method from
the temporal method.

The major differences relate to non-monetary assets carried at historical cost and related
expenses, i.e., inventory and cost of goods sold; property, plant, and equipment and
depreciation expense; and intangible assets and amortization expense (//).

Under the temporal method, these items are all translated at historical exchange rates (/).
Under the current rate method, the assets are translated at the current exchange rate (/)
and the related expenses are translated at the average exchange rate for the current period
(/).

B. Explain on functional currency and the difference between reporting currency. how a
parent company determine the appropriate translation method for translating the financial
statements of a foreign subsidiary under both IFRS and U.S. GAAP.

To determine the appropriate translation method under both IFRS and U.S. GAAP, the
functional currency of a foreign subsidiary must be identified/. The functional currency
is the primary currency of the foreign entity’s operating environment/. It can be either
the parent’s reporting currency / or a foreign currency (generally the local currency/.
The functional currency orientation results in the following rule:

Functional Currency Translation Method Translation Adjustment


Parent’s currency Temporal method/ Gain (loss) in net income/
Foreign currency Current rate method/ Separate component of shareholders'
shareholders’ equity (OCI)/
