This Standard uses underlining, striking out and other typographical material to identify some of the amendments to a Standard or an Interpretation, in order to make the amendments more understandable.  However, the amendments made by this Standard do not include that underlining, striking out or other typographical material.

Amendments to AASB 1

  1. In paragraphs 31, D1(g), D14 and D15 and in the headings before paragraphs 31 and D14, ‘jointly controlled entity’ is amended to ‘joint venture’ and ‘jointly controlled entities’ is amended to ‘joint ventures’.

  1. Paragraph 39I is added as follows:

39I     AASB 2011-7 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Consolidation and Joint Arrangements Standards, issued in August 2011, amended paragraphs 31, B7, C1, D1, D14 and D15 and added paragraph D31.  An entity shall apply those amendments when it applies AASB 10 Consolidated Financial Statements and AASB 11 Joint Arrangements.

  1. Paragraph B7 is amended as follows (new text is underlined and deleted text is struck through):

B7      A first-time adopter shall apply the following requirements of AASB 127 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements (as amended in 2008) AASB 10 prospectively from the date of transition to Australian Accounting Standards:

(a)      the requirement in paragraph 28 B94 that total comprehensive income is attributed to the owners of the parent and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance;

(b)      the requirements in paragraphs 30 and 31 23 and B93 for accounting for changes in the parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control; and

(c)       the requirements in paragraphs 34–37 B97-B99 for accounting for a loss of control over a subsidiary, and the related requirements of paragraph 8A of AASB 5 Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations.

However, if a first-time adopter elects to apply AASB 3 Business Combinations (as revised in 2008) retrospectively to past business combinations, it also shall also apply AASB 127 (as amended in 2008) AASB 10 in accordance with paragraph C1 of this Standard.

  1. Paragraph C1 is amended as follows (new text is underlined and deleted text is struck through):

C1      A first-time adopter may elect not to apply AASB 3 Business Combinations (as revised in 2008) retrospectively to past business combinations (business combinations that occurred before the date of transition to Australian Accounting Standards).  However, if a first-time adopter restates any business combination to comply with AASB 3 (as revised in 2008), it shall restate all later business combinations and shall also apply AASB 127 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements (as amended in 2008) AASB 10 from that same date.  For example, if a first-time adopter elects to restate a business combination that occurred on 30 June 20X6, it shall restate all business combinations that occurred on 30 June 20X6 and the date of transition to Australian Accounting Standards, and it shall also apply AASB 127 (amended 2008) AASB 10 from 30 June 20X6.

  1. Paragraph D1 is amended as follows (new text is underlined and deleted text is struck through):

D1      An entity may elect to use one or more of the following exemptions:

(a)…

(p)      extinguishing financial liabilities with equity instruments (paragraph D25); and

  1. In Appendix A, the footnote to the definition of ‘share-based payment arrangement’ is amended as follows (new text is underlined and deleted text is struck through):

3         A ‘group’ is defined in paragraph 4 Appendix A of AASB 127 AASB 10 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements as ‘a parent and all its subsidiaries’ from the perspective of the reporting entity’s ultimate parent.

Amendments to AASB 3

  1. Paragraph 7 is amended (new text is underlined and deleted text is struck through) and paragraph 64E is added as follows:

7         The guidance in AASB 127 AASB 10 Consolidated Financial Statements shall be used to identify the acquirer – the entity that obtains control of another entity, i.e. the acquiree.  If a business combination has occurred but applying the guidance in AASB 127 AASB 10 does not clearly indicate which of the combining entities is the acquirer, the factors in


paragraphs B14-B18 shall be considered in making that determination.

64E    AASB 2011-7 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Consolidation and Joint Arrangements Standards, issued in August 2011, amended paragraphs 7, B13, B63(e) and Appendix A.  An entity shall apply those amendments when it applies AASB 10.

  1. In Appendix A, the definition of ‘control’ is deleted.

  1. Paragraphs B13 and B63(e) are amended as follows (new text is underlined and deleted text is struck through):

B13    The guidance in AASB 127 AASB 10 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements shall be used to identify the acquirer – the entity that obtains control of the acquiree.  If a business combination has occurred but applying the guidance in AASB 127 AASB 10 does not clearly indicate which of the combining entities is the acquirer, the factors in paragraphs B14‑B18 shall be considered in making that determination.

B63    Examples of other Australian Accounting Standards that provide guidance on subsequently measuring and accounting for assets acquired and liabilities assumed or incurred in a business combination include:

(a)      …

  1. Paragraph 44G is added as follows:

44G    AASB 2011-7 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Consolidation and Joint Arrangements Standards, issued in August 2011, amended paragraph 28.  An entity shall apply that amendment when it applies AASB 11 Joint Arrangements.

(a)      those interests in subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures that are accounted for in accordance with AASB 10 Consolidated Financial Statements, AASB 127 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements, or AASB 128 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures or AASB 131 Interests in Joint Ventures.  However, in some cases, AASB 127, or AASB 128 or AASB 131 permits an entity to account for an interest in a subsidiary, associate or joint venture using AASB 139; in those cases, …

  1. Paragraph 44O is added as follows:

44O    AASB 2011-7 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Consolidation and Joint Arrangements Standards, issued in August 2011, amended paragraph 3.  An entity shall apply that amendment when it applies AASB 10 and AASB 11 Joint Arrangements.

Amendments to AASB 9 (December 2010)

25-26 [Deleted]

Amendments to AASB 101

  1. Paragraphs 4, 119, 123 and 124 are amended (new text is underlined and deleted text is struck through) and paragraph 139H is added as follows:

4         This Standard does not apply to the structure and content of condensed interim financial statements prepared in accordance with AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting.  However, paragraphs 15-35 apply to such financial statements.  This Standard applies equally to all entities, including those that present consolidated financial statements in accordance with AASB 10 Consolidated Financial Statements and those that present separate financial statements as defined in accordance with AASB 127 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements.

119    … An example is disclosure of whether a venturer recognises its interest in a jointly controlled entity using proportionate consolidation or the equity method (see AASB 131 Interests in Joint Ventures) an entity applies the fair value or cost model to its investment property (see AASB 140 Investment Property). Some Australian Accounting Standards specifically require disclosure of particular accounting policies, including choices made by management between different policies they allow. …

123    In the process of applying the entity’s accounting policies, management makes various judgements, apart from those involving estimations, that can significantly affect the amounts it recognises in the financial statements.  For example, management makes judgements in determining:

(a)      whether financial assets are held-to-maturity investments;

(b)      when substantially all the significant risks and rewards of ownership of financial assets and lease assets are transferred to other entities; and

(c)       whether, in substance, particular sales of goods are financing arrangements and therefore do not give rise to revenue; and.

(d)      whether the substance of the relationship between the entity and a special purpose entity indicates that the entity controls the special purpose entity.

124    Some of the disclosures made in accordance with paragraph 122 are required by other Australian Accounting Standards.  For example, AASB 127 requires an entity to disclose the reasons why the entity’s ownership interest does not constitute control, in respect of an investee that is not a subsidiary even though more than half of its voting or potential voting power is owned directly or indirectly through subsidiaries AASB 12 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities requires an entity to disclose the judgements it has made in determining whether it controls another entity.  AASB 140 Investment Property requires …

139H AASB 2011-7 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Consolidation and Joint Arrangements Standards, issued in August 2011, amended paragraphs 4, 119, 123 and 124.  An entity shall apply those amendments when it applies AASB 10 and AASB 12.

Amendments to AASB 107

  1. Paragraphs 37, 38 and 42B are amended as follows (new text is underlined and deleted text is struck through):

37       When accounting for an investment in an associate, a joint venture or a subsidiary accounted for by use of the equity or cost method, an investor restricts its reporting in the statement of cash flows to the cash flows between itself and the investee, for example, to dividends and advances.

38       An entity which reports its interest in a jointly controlled entity (see AASB 131 Interests in Joint Ventures) using proportionate consolidation, includes in its consolidated statement of cash flows its proportionate share of the jointly controlled entity’s cash flows.  An entity which that reports its such an interest in an associate or a joint venture using the equity method includes in its statement of cash flows the cash flows in respect of its investments in the jointly controlled entity associate or joint venture, and distributions and other payments or receipts between it and the jointly controlled entity associate or joint venture.

42B    Changes in ownership interests in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control, such as the subsequent purchase or sale by a parent of a subsidiary’s equity instruments, are accounted for as equity transactions (see AASB 127 AASB 10 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements (as amended in March 2008)).  Accordingly, …

  1. Paragraph 50(b) is deleted and a note added as follows:

50       Additional information …

(a)      …

(b)      [deleted by the IASB]

(c)       …

  1. Paragraph 57 is added as follows:

57       AASB 2011-7 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Consolidation and Joint Arrangements Standards, issued in August 2011, amended paragraphs 37, 38 and 42B and deleted paragraph 50(b).  An entity shall apply those amendments when it applies AASB 10 and AASB 11 Joint Arrangements.

Amendments to AASB 112

  1. In paragraphs 2, 15, 18(e), 24, 38, 44, 45, 81(f), 87 and 87C and the heading before paragraph 38, ‘joint venture’ is amended to ‘joint arrangement’ and ‘joint ventures’ is amended to ‘joint arrangements’.

  1. Paragraph 39 is amended as follows (new text is underlined and deleted text is struck through):

39       An entity shall recognise a deferred tax liability for all taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, branches and associates, and interests in joint ventures arrangements, except to the extent that both of the following conditions are satisfied:

(a)      the parent, investor, or joint venturer or joint operator is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference; and

(b)      …

  1. Paragraph 43 is amended as follows (new text is underlined and deleted text is struck through):

43       The arrangement between the parties to a joint venture arrangement usually deals with the sharing distribution of the profits and identifies whether decisions on such matters require the consent of all the venturers parties or a specified majority group of the venturers parties.  When the joint venturer or joint operator can control the timing of the distribution of its share of the sharing of profits of the joint arrangement and it is probable that its share of the profits will not be distributed in the foreseeable future, a deferred tax liability is not recognised.

  1. Paragraph 98A is added as follows:

98A    AASB 2011-7 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Consolidation and Joint Arrangements Standards, issued in August 2011, amended paragraphs  2, 15, 18(e), 24, 38, 39, 43-45, 81(f), 87 and 87C.  An entity shall apply those amendments when it applies AASB 11 Joint Arrangements.

Amendments to AASB 118

  1. Paragraph 6(b) is amended as follows (new text is underlined and deleted text is struck through):

6         This Standard does not deal with revenue arising from:

(a)      …

(b)      dividends arising from investments which are accounted for under the equity method (see AASB 128 Accounting for Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures);

(c)       …

  1. Paragraph 41 is added as follows:

41       AASB 2011-7 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Consolidation and Joint Arrangements Standards, issued in August 2011, amended paragraph 6(b).  An entity shall apply that amendment when it applies AASB 11 Joint Arrangements.

Amendments to AASB 121

  1. In the definition of ‘foreign operation’ in paragraph 8 and in paragraphs 11 and 18, ‘joint venture’ is amended to ‘joint arrangement’ and ‘joint ventures’ is amended to ‘joint arrangements’.

  1. In paragraphs 3(b) and 44 ‘proportionate consolidation’ and in paragraph 33 ‘proportionately consolidated’ are deleted.

  1. Paragraphs 19, 45, 46 and 48A are amended (new text is underlined and deleted text is struck through) and paragraph 60F is added as follows:

19       This Standard also permits a stand-alone entity preparing financial statements or an entity preparing separate financial statements in accordance with AASB 127 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements to present its financial statements in any currency (or currencies).  If the …

45       The incorporation of the results and financial position of a foreign operation with those of the reporting entity follows normal consolidation procedures, such as the elimination of intragroup balances and intragroup transactions of a subsidiary (see AASB 127 AASB 10 Consolidated Financial Statements and AASB 131 Interests in Joint Ventures).  However, …

46       When the financial statements of a foreign operation are as of a date different from that of the reporting entity, the foreign operation often prepares additional statements as of the same date as the reporting entity’s financial statements.  When this is not done, AASB 127 AASB 10 allows the use of a different date provided that the difference is no greater than three months and adjustments are made for the effects of any significant transactions or other events that occur between the different dates.  In such a case, the assets and liabilities of the foreign operation are translated at the exchange rate at the end of the reporting period of the foreign operation.  Adjustments are made for significant changes in exchange rates up to the end of the reporting period of the reporting entity in accordance with AASB 127 AASB 10.  The same approach is used in applying the equity method to associates and joint ventures and in applying proportionate consolidation to joint ventures in accordance with AASB 128 Investments in Associates and AASB 131 (August 2011).

48A    In addition to the disposal of an entity’s entire interest in a foreign operation, the following partial disposals are accounted for as disposals even if the entity retains an interest in the former subsidiary, associate or jointly controlled entity:

(a)      when the partial disposal involves the loss of control of a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation, regardless of whether the entity retains a non-controlling interest in its former subsidiary after the partial disposal; and

(b)      when the retained interest after the partial disposal of an interest in the loss of significant influence over an a joint arrangement or a partial disposal of an interest in an associate that includes a foreign operation is a financial asset that includes a foreign operation.; and

(c)       the loss of joint control over a jointly controlled entity that includes a foreign operation.

60F    AASB 2011-7 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Consolidation and Joint Arrangements Standards, issued in August 2011, amended paragraphs 3(b), 8, 11, 18, 19, 33, 44-46 and 48A.  An entity shall apply those amendments when it applies AASB 10 and AASB 11 Joint Arrangements.

3         If another Standard prescribes the accounting for a specific type of intangible asset, an entity applies that Standard instead of this Standard.  For example, this Standard does not apply to:

(f)       …

AG37 The situation described in paragraph 18(b) (when an entity retains the contractual rights to receive the cash flows of the financial asset but assumes a contractual obligation to pay the cash flows to one or more recipients) occurs, for example, if the entity is a special purpose entity or trust, and issues to investors beneficial interests in the underlying financial assets that it owns and provides servicing of those financial assets.  In that case, the financial assets qualify for derecognition if the conditions in paragraphs 19 and 20 are met.

AG38 In applying paragraph 19, the entity could be, for example, the originator of the financial asset, or it could be a group that includes a consolidated special purpose entity subsidiary that has acquired the financial asset and passes on cash flows to unrelated third party investors.

15       In consolidated financial statements, paragraphs 16-23 and Appendix A paragraphs AG34-AG52 are applied at a consolidated level.  Hence, an entity first consolidates all subsidiaries in accordance with AASB 10, and then applies paragraphs 16-23 and Appendix A paragraphs AG34-AG52 to the resulting group.

AG3   Sometimes, an entity makes what it views as a ‘strategic investment’ in equity instruments issued by another entity, with the intention of establishing or maintaining a long-term operating relationship with the entity in which the investment is made.  The investor or joint venturer entity uses AASB 128 to determine whether the equity method of accounting is appropriate for such an investment.  If the equity method is not appropriate, the entity applies this Standard to that strategic investment.

52A    Paragraph AG4I(a) is amended to read as follows:

AG4I The following examples show when this condition could be met. …

(a)      The entity is a venture capital organisation, mutual fund, unit trust or similar entity whose business is investing in financial assets with a view to profiting from their total return in the form of interest or dividends and changes in fair value.  AASB 128 allows such investments to be measured at fair value through profit or loss in accordance with this Standard.  An entity may apply the same accounting policy to other investments managed on a total return basis but over which its influence is insufficient for them to be within the scope of AASB 128.

(b)      …

10.6   Venturers’ interests in jointly controlled entities joint ventures that:

(a)      are defined by AASB 131 Interests in Joint Ventures AASB 11 Joint Arrangements;

(b)      …

10.6.1                         Entities apply AASB 131 to interests in joint ventures.  AASB 131 requires investments in joint ventures to be proportionately consolidated or to be accounted for using the equity method.  AASB 11 requires a joint venturer to recognise its interest in a joint venture as an investment and to account for that investment using the equity method in accordance with AASB 128 unless exempted from applying that method.  However, AASB 131 does not apply to venturers’ interests in jointly controlled entities held by AASB 128 permits mutual funds, unit trusts and similar entities including investment-linked insurance funds to measure investments in joint ventures at fair value through profit or loss in accordance with AASB 139 that are treated under AASB 139 and designated as “at fair value through profit or loss”.

(a)      are within the scope of AASB 127 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements;

Amendments to Interpretation 17

  1. Paragraph 7 is amended as follows (new text is underlined and deleted text is struck through):

7         In accordance with paragraph 5, this Interpretation does not apply when an entity distributes some of its ownership interests in a subsidiary but retains control of the subsidiary.  The entity making a distribution that results in the entity recognising a non-controlling interest in its subsidiary accounts for the distribution in accordance with AASB 127 (as amended in 2008) AASB 10.

  1. The heading ‘Effective Date of IFRIC 17’ before paragraph 18 is amended to ‘Effective Date’.

  1. Paragraph 19 is added as follows:
