Explanation of the amounts in the financial statements a. Minor modifications on the reconciliation from opening balance to the closing balance. PAS 19R requires that the reconciliation should show the plan assets, present value of the defined benefit obligation, the effect of the asset ceiling, and the reimbursement rights. b. Disaggregation of plan assets into different asset classes distinguished on the nature and risks of the plan assets. This includes subdividing those assets that do and do not have a quoted market price.
New definition of short-term employee benefits and additional guidance for termination benefits classification and recognition
Under the current standard, short-term benefits is defined as employee benefits that are due to be settled within 12 months after the end of the period in which employees render the related service while under the revised standard, short-term benefits is defined as employee benefits that are expected to be settled wholly before 12 months after the end of the annual reporting period. The new definition will result in more plans being classified as long-term employee benefit plans that will then need to be measured using actuarial assumptions. PAS 19R provides clarifying guidance to help companies distinguish between benefits payable in exchange for service and benefits payable in exchange for termination of employment by providing indicators when an employee benefit is not a termination benefit. It also requires an entity to recognize a liability and expense at the earlier between (a) the date of offer if the benefits can no longer be withdrawn, and (b) the date when the entity recognizes costs for a restructuring that is within the scope of IAS 37; and involves the payment of termination benefits.
Action point
The above amendments will be effective for annual period beginning on or after January 1, 2013 with retrospective application. This means that the comparative information to be presented in the 2013 Financial Statements should be based on the provisions of PAS 19R. In preparation for this amendment, the impact of the amendments should already be known and such impact can already be determined by having an additional valuation to be performed in addition to the requirements of the current provisions of PAS 19. This will anticipate the potential impact of the amendments and to avoid the duplication of effort by the actuary when preparing the 2013 Financial Statements.
