Dark Limited is engaged in the construction and operation of thermal power plants in the country. It has entered into a purchase contract for USD 2,00,000 with Bright Limited, on 1st October, 2023 for purchase of power plant equipment on 31st March 2024. It is pertinent to note that the functional currency of both companies is INR. Dark Limited and Bright Limited are listed companies in India and prepare their financial statements on a quarterly basis as per Ind AS. Spot Rate as on 1st October, 2023 ₹/USD 75 Spot Rate as on 31st December, 2023 ₹/USD 82 Three month forward rate on 31st December, 2023 ₹/USD 70 Six month forward rate on 1st October, 2023 ₹/USD 80 Spot Rate on 31st March, 2024 ₹/ USD 85 Assume that this contract has an embedded derivative that is not closely related and requires separation. You are required to pass the necessary Journal Entries in the books of Bright Limited from the inception of the contract till the actual sale of equipment.

Suggested Answer and Working Notes:

The contract should be separated using the 6-month USD / ₹ forward exchange rate, as at the date of the contract (1 USD = 80). The two components of the contract are therefore: A sale contract for USD 2,00,000A six-month currency forward to purchase USD 2,00,000 at 80This gives rise to a gain or loss on the derivative, and a corresponding derivative asset or liability. On delivery 1. Bright Ltd. records the sales at the amount of the host contract = 1,60,00,000 2. The embedded derivative is considered to expire. 3. The derivative asset or liability (i.e. the cumulative gain or loss) is settled by becoming part of the financial asset on delivery. 4. In this case, the carrying value of the currency forward at 31st March 2024 on maturity is = 2,00,000 (85 – 80) = 10,00,000 (profit/asset) Below is the table summarising the computation of gain/ loss to be recorded at every period end Date Transaction Sales ₹ Debtors ₹ Derivative Asset (Liability) ₹ (Profit) Loss ₹ 1 st Oct. 2023 Embedded Derivative Nil Value 31 st Dec. 2023 Change in Fair Value of Embedded Derivatives MTM (80 - 70) X 2,00,000 (20,00,000) 20,00,000 31 st Mar. 2024 Change in Fair Value of Embedded Derivatives (85 - 70) x 2,00,000 30,00,000 (30,00,000) 31 st Mar. 2024 Recording sales at forward rate 1,60,00,000 1,60,00,000 31 st Mar. 2024 Embedded derivative settled against debtors 10,00,000 (10,00,000) Journal Entries to be recorded at every period end 1 st October, 2023 – No entry to be made 31 st December, 2023 Particulars Dr. Amount (₹) Cr.
