a. The investment is initially measured at the transaction price plus, in the case of FVOCI,
transaction costs directly related to the acquisition. Transaction costs incurred on
investments classified as FVPL are expensed immediately.
b. The investment is subsequently measured at fair value. Changes in fair value are recognized
in profit or loss for FVPL and recognized in other comprehensive income for FVOCI.
c. Dividends from the investment are recognized in profit or loss when the entity's right to
receive the dividends is established.
d. The entity shall not recognize any share from the profit of the investee.
Fair value method
• Investments classified as held for sale (or included in a disposal group classified as
'held for sale') are accounted for in accordance with PFRS 5 Non-current Assets Held
for Sale and Discontinued Operations. The measurement of investments accounted for
in accordance with PFRS 9 is not changed in such circumstances.
• If an entity elects, in accordance with PAS 28 Investments in Associates and Joint
Ventures, to measure its investments in associates or joint ventures at fair value through
profit or loss (FVPL) in accordance with PFRS 9, it shall also account for those
investments in the same way in its separate financial statements.
Equity Method
Equity method Under the equity method, the investment is initially recognized at cost and
subsequently adjusted for the investor's share in the changes in the investee's equity.
Dividends
Dividends from a subsidiary, associate or joint venture are recognized in profit or loss
when the entity's right to receive the dividends is established, except when the investment
is accounted for using the equity method, in which case the dividends are recognized as
deduction to the carrying amount of the investment.
