问题如下:
Golden Elementary school offers its employees a defined benefit pension plan. Golden complies with IFRS.
- Discount rate on pension obligations=6.12%
- Expected return on plan asset=5.3%
- Fair value of plan assets at beginning of year=19,785
- PBO at begnning of year=26,560
- Fair value of plan assets at the end of year=20,120
- PBO at end of year=26,950
- Actual return on plan asset during the year=1,015
The actual rate of return on beginning plan assets and the return of plan asset that is included in the net interest income calculation are:
选项:
A.5.13% and 1,211
B.5.13% and 1,049
C.5.56% and 1,049
解释:
A is correct.
考点:国际准则下养老金的会计处理
解析:
1、资产的真实回报=期初plan asset公允价值*真实回报率,所以真实回报率=actural return/plan asset期初=1015/19785=5.13%2、IFRS 下,net interest income 本身是包含两项的:一项是 interest cost = PBO beginning x r,一项是 expected return of plan asset = Begining FV of plan asset x r
本题是问包含在 net interest income 中的 return of plan asset,也就是只有上述的第二项:expected return of plan asset = Begining FV of plan asset x r
在国际准则下,包含在net interest income中的资产收益=期初plan asset公允价值*discount rate=19785*6.12%=1,211 (在国际准则下不能用资产预期收益率)
我的理解是:discount rate -> 是PBO的discount rate,由高级别公司债的利率而来,用在计算net interest income or net interest expense
actual return -> plan asset的实际回报率,只用在remeasurement 第二项用来算有多少需要调平,其他地方用不到这个actual return
E(R)是不是就是“预期资产回报率”?这个用在哪里?是不是IFRS里用不到这个,只有US GAAP 用得到?能总结一下预期资产回报率的用法吗?
另外我对r 和Actual return 的理解对吗?
