Frank Partnoys Works
  • Of all the many documents and books that I have
    read about derivative financial instruments, the
    most important have been the books and documents
    written by Frank Partnoy. Some of his books are
    listed at the bottom of this message.

5
Frank Partnoys Works
  • The single most important document is his Senate
    Testimony. More than any other single thing that
    I've ever read about the Enron disaster, this
    testimony explains what happened at Enron and
    what danger lurks in the entire world from
    continued unregulated OTC markets in derivatives.
    I think this document should be required reading
    for every business and economics student in the
    world. Perhaps it should be required reading for
    every student in the world. Among other things it
    says a great deal about human greed and behavior
    that pump up the bubble of excesses in government
    and private enterprise that destroy the
    efficiency and effectiveness of what would
    otherwise be the best economic system ever
    designed.

Hedge Accounting Section Objectives
  • After completing this section, you should be able
    to
  • Determine whether a contract is scoped into the
    standards and, if so, whether it is
  • Qualified for Hedge Accounting
  • Treated as a cash flow, fair value, or FX hedge
  • Understand the basic journal entries
  • Cry out loud if forced to implement the standards

12
One million lines of journal entries  Just how
expensive is FAS 133?
  • "The Potential Crisis at Fannie Mae," Comstock
    Funds, August 11, 2005 --- http//snipurl.com/Fann
    ie133
  • We have no proprietary information about Fannie
    Mae, but what is publicly known is scary enough.
    As you may recall, last December the SEC required
    Fannie to restate prior financial statements
    while the Office of Federal Oversight (OFHEO)
    accused the company of widespread accounting
    regularities that resulted in false and
    misleading statements. Significantly, the
    questionable practices included the way Fannie
    accounted for their huge amount of derivatives.
    On Tuesday, a company press release gave some
    alarming hints on how extensive the problem may
    be.
  • The press release stated that in order to
    accomplish the restatements, we have to obtain
    and validate market values for a large volume of
    transactions including all of our derivatives,
    commitments and securities at multiple points in
    time over the restatement period. To illustrate
    the breadth of this undertaking, we estimate we
    will need to record over one million lines of
    journal entries, determine hundreds of thousands
    of commitment prices and securities values, and
    verify some 20,000 derivative prices
  • This year we expect that over 30 percent of our
    employees will spend over half their time on it,
    and many more are involved. In addition we are
    bringing some 1,500 consultants on board by
    years end to help with the restatementAltogether
    , we project devoting six to eight million labor
    hours to the restatement. We are also investing
    over 100 million in technology projects to
    enhance or create new systems related to
    accounting and reportingwe do not believe the
    restatement will be completed until sometime
    during the second half of 2006
  • Bob Jensen's tutorials on accounting for
    derivatives are at http//www.trinity.edu/rjensen/
    caseans/000index.htm

13
FOUR CORNERSTONES
  • Derivatives are contracts that create rights and
    obligations that meet the definitions of assets
    and liabilities
  • Fair value is the only relevant measure for
    derivatives(Mainly because historical cost is
    zero or near-zero)
  • Value risk can be hedged into cash flow risk, and
    cash flow risk can be hedged into value risk, but
    both risks cannot simultaneously be eliminated.
  • Hedge effectiveness tests can be varied with the
    type of risk being hedged.

14
Example Futures ContractsFinancial Risk May Be
Unbounded
  • May be contracts to buy or sell at contracted
    (future) price that moves along with spot prices
    on an organized exchange linking buyers and
    sellers. Cost Zero!
  • Notional standardized quantities per contract
    for a standard product such as a particular type
    of corn.
  • Underlying the value per unit such as the price
    of a bushel of corn or a Treasury or Libor
    interest rate.
  • Futures are a unique kind of derivative because
    futures gains and losses are posted daily in cash.

15
Example Futures Contracts (Continued)
  • Since futures contracts are cleared daily for
    cash, the accounting was relatively simple under
    the now-defunct FAS 80.
  • FAS 133 rules are more complicated for hedging
    contracts --- see 000starta.xls file at
    http//www.cs.trinity.edu/rjensen/Calgary/CD/FAS
    133OtherExcelFiles/cases/
  • CBOT --- http//www.cbot.com/
  • The prices you first see listed are the forward
    prices. To find spot prices, click on the link
    called "Charts." 

16
Example Forward ContractsFinancial Risk May Be
Unbounded
  • May be contracts to buy or sell at contracted
    (future) price that moves along with spot prices
    in over-the-counter (OTC) private contracts.
    Cost Zero!
  • Notional unique quantities per contract for a
    defined product such as a particular type of
    corn.
  • Underlying the value per unit such as the price
    of a bushel of corn or a Treasury or Libor
    interest rate.
  • Unlike futures contracts, forward contracts are
    neither standardized nor cleared daily for cash
    gains and losses.

17
Example Forward Contracts (Continued)
  • There were no accounting rules for forward
    contracts prior to FAS 133.
  • FAS 133 rules are complicated for hedging
    contracts --- see 000starta.xls file at
    http//www.cs.trinity.edu/rjensen/Calgary/CD/FAS
    133OtherExcelFiles/cases/
  • CBOT --- Does not exchange forward contracts
  • Contracts are non-standardized and might be
    subject to credit risk. 

18
Example Swap Contracts Financial Risk May Be
Unbounded
  • Swaps are generally portfolios of forward
    contracts with regularly-spaced payment dates.
    Cost Zero!
  • Notional unique quantities per contract for a
    defined product such the number of bonds being
    hedged.
  • Underlying the value per unit such as the price
    of a bushel of corn or a Treasury or Libor
    interest rate.
  • Interest rate swaps were only invented in 1984,
    but they became the leading form of cash
    management and now have notionals over 100
    trillion dollars..

19
Example Swap Contracts (Continued)
  • There were no accounting rules for swap contracts
    prior to FAS 133.
  • FAS 133 rules are complicated for hedging
    contracts --- see 000starta.xls file at
    http//www.cs.trinity.edu/rjensen/Calgary/CD/FAS
    133OtherExcelFiles/cases/
  • There are a few standardized swaps traded on
    exchanges
  • Contracts are non-standardized and might be
    subject to credit risk. 

20
Example Written Option ContractsFinancial Risk
May Be Unbounded
  • Contracts to sell or buy at contracted (future)
    price that moves along with spot prices on an
    organized exchange linking buyers and sellers.
    Sale Price gt 0Premium! Example Selling Puts
    or Calls.
  • Notional standardized quantities per contract
    for a standard product such as a particular type
    of corn.
  • Underlying the value per unit such as the price
    of a bushel of corn or a Treasury or Libor
    interest rate.
  • Options may also be non-standardized OTC. Use of
    options dates back to Roman times.

21
Example Purchased Option ContractsFinancial
Risk Is Bounded by Premium Paid
  • Contracts to buy or sell at contracted (future)
    price that moves along with spot prices on an
    organized exchange linking buyers and sellers.
    Purchase Price gt 0Premium! Example Buying
    Puts or Calls.
  • Notional standardized quantities per contract
    for a standard product such as a particular type
    of corn.
  • Underlying the value per unit such as the price
    of a bushel of corn or a Treasury or Libor
    interest rate.
  • Purchased options are the only derivatives where
    risk is limited to the premium (purchase) price
    paid initially.

22
Example Purchased Options (Continued)
  • The accounting was relatively simple under the
    now-defunct FAS 80.
  • FAS 133 rules are more complicated for hedging

23
KEY ASPECTS OF THE 133/39 STANDARDS
  • Most derivatives are reported at fair value on
    balance sheet
  • Changes in fair value for derivatives not
    qualifying in a hedging relationship are recorded
    in earnings
  • Hedge accounting is provided for the change in
    value of derivatives designated and qualifying
    as
  • Fair value hedges
  • Cash flow hedges
  • Foreign currency hedges
  • Hedge effectiveness tests may be tough hurdles
    over time

24
DERIVATIVES IMPLEMENTATIONGROUP (DIG)
  • DIG is made up of FASB staff members, Big 5
    members and Industry professionals. Active DIG
    observers include the SEC and certain regulators.
  • DIGs mandate is to assist the FASB in answering
    implementation questions by identifying practice
    issues that arise from applying Statement 133 and
    to advise the FASB staff on how to resolve the
    issues.
  • Issues are discussed by DIG, tentatively
    concluded by the FASB staff and posted on the
    FASB website (www.fasb.org) for two months before
    being presented to the Board for negative
    clearance.

DERIVATIVE DEFINITION 616
  • The definition is based on distinguishing
    characteristics
  • A derivative instrument is a contract with all
    three of the following characteristics (6)
  • Underlying and either a notional amount or a
    payment provision or both
  • Relatively small initial net investment
  • Net settlement or its equivalent (excludes most
    short sales Take-Or-Pays, but see FAS 133
    Paragraph 290)
  • Definition includes freestanding as well as
    embedded derivative instruments
  • A number of exclusions exist

27
FREESTANDING DERIVATIVESOverview
  • Statement 133 created a new definition of the
    term derivative
  • Some instruments that are not usually considered
    derivatives are included (e.g. certain
    purchase/sales contracts)
  • The definition is based on certain distinguishing
    characteristics.
  • Certain scope exceptions exist not everything
    that meets the definition of a derivative is
    subject to the requirements of Statement 133.

28
FREESTANDING DERIVATIVES Three Characteristics
69 and 57
  • A derivative instrument is a contract with all
    three of the following characteristics
  • 1. Underlying and either a notional amount or a
    payment provision or both
  • 2. No initial net investment or smaller initial
    net investment than contracts with similar
    responses to changes in market factors
  • 3. Net settlement or its equivalent

29
FREESTANDING DERIVATIVES Characteristic
1Underlying 7 and 57(a)
  • An underlying is a variable, such as
  • An interest rate (e.g., LIBOR)
  • The price of a security or commodity (e.g., price
    of a share of ABC stock or a bushel of wheat)
  • A foreign exchange rate (e.g., Euro/U.S. spot
    rate)
  • A measure of creditworthiness (e.g., Moodys)
  • An index on any of above or other (e.g., SP 500,
    CPI)
  • Other specific items

30
FREESTANDING DERIVATIVES Characteristic
1Notional Amount 7
  • A notional amount is a number of
  • Currency units
  • Shares
  • Bushels
  • Pounds
  • Other units
  • Notional amount is used to determine the
    settlement amount (for example, a price x a
    number of shares)

31
FREESTANDING DERIVATIVES Characteristic
1Examples of Underlyings and Notional Amounts
  • Derivative Underlying Notional
    Amount
  • - Stock option - Stock price - Number
    of shares
  • - Currency forward - Exchange rate - Number of
    currency units
  • - Commodity future - Commodity price - Number
    of commodity units
  • - Interest rate swap - Interest index - Dollar
    amount

32
FREESTANDING DERIVATIVES Characteristic
1Payment Provision 7
  • A payment provision specifies a fixed or
    determinable settlement if the underlying behaves
    in a specified way.
  • For example
  • if interest rates increase by say 300
    basis points then payment of an
    applicable amount would be required

33
FREESTANDING DERIVATIVES Characteristic
2Initial Net Investment 8 and 57(b)
  • A derivative requires either
  • No initial net investment
  • A smaller initial net investment than other types
    of contracts that have a similar response to
    changes in market factors
  • A derivative does not require an initial net
    investment of
  • the notional amount
  • An exchange of currencies is not a net investment

34
FREESTANDING DERIVATIVES Characteristic 3Net
Settlement 9 and 57(c)
  • There are 3 ways to meet the net settlement
    requirement
  • 1. Net settlement explicitly required or
    permitted by the contract (transfer of cash or
    other assets)
  • 2. Net settlement by a market mechanism outside
    the contract (e.g., futures exchange)
  • 3. Delivery of a derivative or an asset that is
    readily convertible to cash

35
FREESTANDING DERIVATIVES Characteristic
3Readily Convertible to Known Amounts of Cash
9 and 57(c)
  • Readily convertible assets have
  • Interchangeable (fungible) units
  • Quoted prices available in an active market that
    can rapidly absorb the quantity held by the
    entity without significantly affecting the price
  • For example
  • Public securities, commodities, and foreign
    currencies

36
FREESTANDING DERIVATIVES Exceptions 10 and 58
  • The following are not subject to Statement 133
  • Regular-way security trades
  • Normal purchases and normal sales
  • Traditional insurance contracts
  • Most financial guarantee contracts
  • OTC contracts with certain underlyings
  • Derivatives that are an impediment to sales
    accounting

37
FAS 138Scope-Excluded Contracts
  • Normal purchase/sale exception expanded to
    include
  • Contracts that permit net settlement (9a)
  • Contracts that have a market mechanism to
    facilitate net settlement (but note FAS 138)
  • As long as it is probable contracts will not
    settle net and will result in physical delivery
    (but note FAS 138 and FAS 149)

38
FAS 138 Scope-Excluded Contracts (Contd)
Net settlement of similar contracts should be
rare Excluded from exception Contracts that
require cash settlement or otherwise settle
periodically Contracts that have price based
on underlying unrelated to asset sold or
purchased(1) Contracts denominated in foreign
currency not meeting embedded derivative
separation exception rules of paragraphs 15(a)
and 15(b) (1)


(1) May be considered compound derivatives

40
FREESTANDING DERIVATIVES ExceptionsOTC
Contracts with Certain Underlyings 10(e) and
58(c)
  • The price or value of nonfinancial assets of one
    of the parties that is not readily convertible to
    cash or the price or value of nonfinancial

    classified in stockholders equity
  • Stock-based compensation covered by Statement 123
    (issuer only)
  • Contingent consideration in a business
    combination covered by Opinion 16 (purchaser
    only)

43
EMBEDDED DERIVATIVES Definition 12
  • Embedded derivatives are implicit or explicit
    terms that affect the cash flows or value of
    other exchanges required by a contract in a
    manner similar to a derivative
  • The combination of a host contract and an
    embedded derivative is referred to as a hybrid
    contract
  • Examples of hybrid contracts are
  • Structured notes
  • Convertible securities
  • Securities with caps, floors, or collars

47
EMBEDDED DERIVATIVESClearly and Closely Related
  • Paragraph 61 provides guidance for determining
    whether the economic characteristics and risks of
    the embedded derivative are clearly and closely
    related to the economic characteristics and risks
    of the host contract.

48
FAIR VALUE HEDGE 2022
  • A fair value hedge is a hedge of the exposure to
    a change in fair value of a recognized asset or
    liability or of an unrecognized firm commitment
    attributable to a particular risk. Key aspects
  • Hedged item is exposed to price risk
  • For a highly effective hedge, there must be
    offsetting fair value changes for hedged item and
    hedging instrument
  • Changes in fair value of hedged item and hedging
    instrument are recorded in earnings
  • Basis of hedged item is adjusted by the change in
    value

49
FAIR VALUE HEDGE ACCOUNTING
  • Key concepts
  • Derivatives are always adjusted on the balance
    sheet at fair value (i.e., marked-to-market)
    (17)
  • In qualified hedge accounting, the offset to
    changes in the hedging derivative is OCI for cash
    flow hedges but not for fair value hedges.
  • For a qualified fair value hedge, the offset is
    Firm Commitment for a purchase contract
    with a contracted price
    Hedged Item carrying value if the hedged item
    such as inventory is already on the
    books at historical cost PL current
    earnings if the hedged item such as
    inventory is already on the books at fair value

51
CASH FLOW HEDGE 2931
  • A cash flow hedge is a hedging relationship where
    the variability of the hedged items cash flows
    is offset by the cash flows of the hedging
    instrument. Key aspects
  • Hedged item may be a forecasted transaction with
    no contracted future price (i.e., not a firm
    commit.)
  • Effective portion of derivatives gain or loss
    reported in OCI
  • Earnings recognition matches hedged transaction
  • Ineffective gain or loss recorded in earnings

52
CASH FLOW HEDGE ACCOUNTING
  • Derivative instrument recorded at fair value,
    effective portion through OCI, ineffective
    through earnings
  • Amounts in OCI recognized in earnings when hedged
    transaction impacts earnings under FAS 133 but
    not under IAS 39. In other words, IAS 39
    requires basis adjustment when the derivative
    expires whereas FAS 133 carries OCI forward until
    hedged item is disposed of in a transaction.

FOREIGN CURRENCY HEDGE 3642 (as amended by FAS
138)
  • The Board intended to increase the consistency of
    hedge accounting guidance by broadening the scope
    of eligible foreign currency hedges. At the same
    time, the Board chose to continue certain prior
    practices. Key aspects
  • Includes hedges of cash flow, fair value, and net
    investments in foreign operations
  • Carries forward the functional currency concept
    from Statement 52
  • Permits limited use of nonderivative instruments
  • Expands hedge accounting, particularly for
    forecasted transactions and tandem currency hedges

55
Hedging Instruments
  • For a fair value hedge of foreign exchange risk
    related to AFS securities or a recognized
    foreign-currency-denominated debt instrument, an
    entity can only use a derivative instrument
  • For a fair value hedge of foreign exchange risk
    related to a firm commitment, an entity can use
    either a derivative or a non-derivative
    instrument
  • For a cash flow hedge of a forecasted foreign
    currency denominated transaction (including
    forecasted intercompany transactions, recognized
    foreign-currency-denominated debt instruments and
    firm commitments accounted for as forecasted
    transactions), an entity can only use a
    derivative instrument
  • For a hedge of a net investment in a foreign
    operation, an entity can use either a derivative
    or a non-derivative instrument

56

CASE 1 Cash Flow Hedge of Forecasted Inventory
Sale
  • ABC is hedging the risk of changes in cash flows
    related to a forecasted sale of 100,000 bushels
    of Commodity A to be sold at the end of period 1.
    The inventory carrying value is 1 million, and
    current market value is 1.1 million
  • On the first day of period 1, ABC enters into
    Derivative Z to sell 100,000 bushels at 1.1
    million at the end of period
  • At hedge inception, the derivative is
    at-the-money (fair value is 0)
  • All terms of the commodity and the derivative
    match (i.e., no expected ineffectiveness)
  • On last day of Period 1, fair value of Derivative
    Z increased by 25,000 and expected sales price
    of 100,000 bushels of Commodity A decreased
    25,000

    matching derivative to hedge the changes in
    fair value of the 1,000 bushels of the Commodity

69
CASE 2 (Contd)Fair Value Hedge of Inventory
  • Effectiveness will be assessed by comparing
    entire change in fair value of derivative to
