In the previous article, we analyzed the scope and features of the formation of fair value, which is entered into the Russian accounting of inventories and property, plant and equipment of non-budgetary sphere organizations (including healthcare organizations) thanks to the Federal Accounting Standards (FAS) 5/2019 “Inventories”, 6/2020 “Property, Plant and Equipment”, and 26/2020 “Capital Investments”. This article examines the valuation techniques and hierarchy of fair value of these assets. This study is all the more relevant since the fair value is entered into the Russian accounting of inventories and property, plant and equipment of non-budgetary organizations for the first time and it is still quite unusual for many domestic accountants. Analysis, synthesis, grouping method, comparison, analogy method, logical approach, and systemic approach were used as research methods. As a result of the research carried out, the article analyzes the fundamental issues in the field of valuation techniques and hierarchy of fair value of inventories and property, plant and equipment of non-budgetary sphere organizations (including healthcare organizations), identifies the most important problems in this area and presents recommendations for their solution.

The Federal Accounting Standard (FAS) 5/2019 “Inventories” provides for a fairly broad application of fair value measurement of the inventories of non-budgetary sphere organizations (including healthcare organizations). An even more active use of fair value is suggested by FAS 6/2020 for the measurement of property, plant and equipment of the aforementioned organizations. The specified value is entered into the domestic accounting of the listed assets for the first time and is unusual for many Russian accountants. All this indicates the relevance of a detailed study of issues related to the fair value measurement of inventories and property, plant and equipment of the aforementioned organizations. In this article, the scope and features of the formation of this measurement are investigated. Other issues related to this measurement will be analyzed by us in the next article. The research methods were analysis and synthesis, grouping method, comparison, analogy method, logical approach, systemic approach. As a result of the research carried out, the article defines the scope of the fair value measurement of inventories and property, plant and equipment in the Russian accounting of organizations that are not budgetary sphere organizations, analyzes the features of the formation of such a measurement of these assets, identifies the most important problematic issues in this area and identifies ways to solve them.

The new Federal Accounting Standard (FAS) 6/2020 “Property, Plant and Equipment”, which will come into force in 2022, requires non-public sector organizations (including healthcare organizations in this sector) to take into account the impairment of property, plant and equipment. Such accounting is qualitatively new for these organizations. Consequently, it is very important to conduct a separate research of the rules for determining and recording the impairment of property, plant and equipment of non-public sector organizations. This research is the subject of this article. As research methods, the following were used: grouping method, analysis and synthesis, comparison, analogy method, logical approach, systematic approach. As a result of the research carried out, the article focuses on the fundamental issues of accounting for the impairment of the property, plant and equipment of non-public sector organizations (including healthcare organizations in this sector), identifies the most important problematic issues in this area and presents proposals for their solution.

Accounting for borrowing costs is undoubtedly relevant for many modern organizations. It should be noted that from this year a new federal public finance accounting standard (FAS PF) “Borrowing costs” came into force. This standard establishes updated accounting rules for borrowing costs for state (municipal) budgetary and autonomous institutions (including healthcare institutions). These rules are analyzed in this article. The research methods were analysis and synthesis, grouping method, comparison, analogy method, logical approach, systemic approach. On the basis of the research carried out, the article systematizes the types and definitions of borrowing costs provided for by the above-named federal standard. As a result, the author presents a categorical apparatus in the indicated area. In addition, the article analyzes the most important features of accounting for borrowing costs and provides examples that explain these features. The results of the study can be useful to a wide range of readers interested in the problems of modern accounting, including accounting for borrowing costs of state (municipal) budgetary and autonomous institutions (in particular, healthcare institutions), and can also be applied in the practical work of the accounting departments of these institutions and in higher education process.

Subject. This article examines the practice of first-time applying the International Public Sector Accounting Standards (IPSAS) by Russian higher education institutions. Objectives. The article aims to identify and address the problems associated with such application, and conduct a critical analysis of Russian universities' compliance with the requirements of the International Standards on their first-time adoption. Methods. For the study, we used observation, systematization, and a comparative analysis. Results. The article examines and describes the practical experience of the first-time use of IPSAS in the preparation of reporting by Russian educational institutions participating in the Russian Academic Excellence Project (5Top100 Project). It presents the results of the most typical reclassification adjustments of reporting items made by the universities when preparing their inductive statements of financial position as of the date of transition to IPSAS. Conclusions and Relevance. Most of the universities studied complied with the requirements of the IPSAS first-time adoption and provided comparative information in their first IPSAS financial reporting. The importance of the study is to justify the provision that financial reporting in accordance with IPSAS is appropriate to improve the international competitiveness of universities, which makes it possible to better reflect financial information on the activities of universities. The results of the study can be used in the practical activities of the Russian economy public sector organizations, and in the educational process of higher education institutions.

Pros And Cons

Abstract Taking as a starting point Peter Hommelhoff’s argumentation that accounting law is, in many respects, linked to company law, the purpose of this article is to discuss one perspective of the links between accounting law and company law: accounting concepts in company law. After a brief outline of the existing EU legislation on accounting and a discussion on whether accounting law is part of company law, some examples of accounting concepts in company law – i. e. examples of accounting concepts that have been ‘implemented’ in company law – are discussed, drawing on the Consolidated Company Law Directive (CCLD) and the Shareholder Rights Directive (SRD 2) as well as the International Accounting Standards (IAS) and the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). These examples are related party transactions, consideration other than in cash and fair value, serious loss of the subscribed capital as well as a few other examples. It is also discussed whether accounting concepts in company law are a ‘good’ or a ‘bad’ thing. Balancing the pros and cons, in the author’s opinion, it is mostly positive that accounting concepts are used in company law in areas where this makes sense – and hence, in the author’s opinion, accounting concepts in company law are mainly a ‘good’ thing.

Gains And Losses

This study examines the economic implications of fair value liability gains and losses arising from the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159 (hereafter, FAS 159). We find a positive correspondence between a firm’s FAS 159 fair value liability gains and losses and current period stock returns, consistent with the notion that these gains and losses are priced by equity investors. However, further analysis indicates that fair value gains and losses from liabilities have a statistically significant negative association with future returns, suggesting that investors misprice this earnings component and subsequently correct the mispricing. We also find that the negative association for fair value gains is stronger for firms with lower levels of institutional ownership.
