The purpose of this additional step is to allow:interested parties to review the proposals and give feedback to the IASB;FASB the opportunity to consider the proposals; andIASB to undertake additional research.The IASB has determined that the hedging requirements of IAS 39 are quite onerous and do not match the risk management policies pursued by many entities.The proposals in the draft aim to simplify the hedging requirements and allow an entity to hedge account for their inherent business risks.1 Hedging InstrumentsThe draft allows certain non-derivative financial instruments measured at fair value through profit or loss to be classified as hedging instruments. This would be rare in practice, but could include an investment in a commodity-linked fund being used to hedge the price risk of a forecast purchase of that commodity.If an entity uses an option contract as a hedging instrument, the draft requires that the time value of that option be accounted for through other comprehensive income rather than profit or loss. This will reduce volatility in profit or loss.? When the spot element of a forward contract is designated as a hedge the fair value change can be recognised immediately through profit or loss or the effect may be deferred through other comprehensive income.2 Hedged ItemsThe draft allows a specific risk of a non-financial item to be classified as a hedged item if it is separately identifiable and can be measured reliably.It also allows a hedged item to include a derivative. Under IAS 39, this cannot be classified as a hedged item.It further allows the hedge of a group of items, or a net position. This will better reflect the risk management strategies followed by an entity.The draft also allows equity investments designated at fair value through other comprehensive income to be designated as hedged items (with both the effective and ineffective changes recognised in other comprehensive income).3 Qualifying Hedges The draft replaces the quite onerous effective test (80%–125%) with more principles-based criteria:there should be an economic relationship between the hedging instrument and the hedged item;the effect of credit risk should not dominate the value changes which result from the economic relationship; andthe hedge ratio should reflect the actual quantity of hedging instrument used to hedge the actual quantity of the hedged item.This new assessment method is fairly subjective, and may need support from a quantitative and/or qualitative assessment of the economic relationship.4 Hedge AccountingCash flow hedge accounting will require that when a forecast transaction results in the recognition of a non-financial item then the cash flow reserve recognised in equity must be offset against the value of the non-financial item (the "basis" adjustment). Under IAS 39, the basis adjustment was one of two options allowed.Accounting for fair value hedges will be unchanged from IAS 39. 本文由高顿ACCA编辑整理，转载请注明出处 急速通关计划 ACCA全球私播课 大学生雇主直通车计划 周末面授班 寒暑假冲刺班 其他课程
