(IND AS 32) Company K issues preference shares to an investor. As per the terms of issue, the preference shares shall be mandatorily redeemed at the expiry of five years from the date of their issue. The shares carry a cumulative dividend of 8% per annum and the terms of issue specifically stipulate that any unpaid dividend shall be paid at the time of redemption, subject to availability of profits. Company D issues preference shares to a group of investors. As per the terms of issue, each preference share shall be mandatorily converted into 5 equity shares at the expiry of four years from the date of issue. The preference shares carry a non- cumulative dividend of 8% per annum. In the jurisdiction in which Company D operates, declaration and payment of dividend on preference shares is at the discretion of the issuer. COMPOUND FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS: SPLIT ACCOUNTING A company issues 5,00,000 convertible debentures. The debentures have a three- year term and are issued at par with a face value of Rs 100 per debenture, giving total proceeds of Rs 5,00,00,000. Interest is payable at each year-end at an interest rate of 8% per annum. At the end of the three-year term, each debenture is convertible, at the option of the holder, into 5 equity shares of the company. When the debentures are issued, the prevailing market interest rate for similar debt without conversion feature is 12% per annum. For simplicity, it is assumed that there are no transaction costs associated with issue of debentures. COMPOUND FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS: SPLIT ACCOUNTING (contd.)
