Cima F2 Exam Question No 44

Question No 44:

What is Convertible instrument?

A convertible instrument is considered part liability and part equity. IAS 32 requires that each part is measured separately on initial recognition. The liability element is measured by estimating the present value of the future cash flows from the instrument (interest and potential redemption) using a discount rate equivalent to the market rate of interest for a similar instrument with no conversion terms.
