The first financial instrument was a compensatory stock option plan that was granted to 12 key management positions for the first time. The company wanted to provide these employees with additional compensation and due to financial constraints could not increase salaries. The plan granted these management employees 7,500 options each to purchase shares at $40 each when they were actually worth $80. The options were granted on January 1, 2021 and were exercisable within a two year period beginning January 1, 2023 if the employee was still employed with the company at the time of exercise. A fair value options pricing model determined total compensation to be $820,000. Assume that there are no forfeitures. On January 1, 2023, two employees exercised the options.

The second financial instrument was a loan from a shareholder. The company borrowed a $6 million dollar loan at a rate of 4% when the market rate of interest was 6%. The company received the lower rate of interest by agreeing that in five years time, the lender would have the option to receive repayment in full in cash or to accept 40,000 common shares as full repayment. Assume the loan was advanced on January 1, 2021. Both ASPE and IFRS.
A third financial instrument was a forward contract. The company agreed to buy $2 million in U.S. currency for $2,100,000 (U.S. $1 = Canadian $1.05). On December 14, 2021 the new value was U.S. $ = Canadian $ 1.08.
B) On September 1, 2021, your company sold at 103 (plus accrued interest) 4,000 of its $1,000 face value, 10-year, 8%, non-convertible bonds with detachable stock warrants. Each bond carried two detachable warrants; each warrant was for one common share at a specified price of $12 per share. Shortly after issuance, the warrants were selling for $6 each. Assume there is no fair value available for the bonds. Interest is payable on December 1 and June 1. Show both methods.
The company established a stock appreciation rights program for the president. The program entitled the president to receive cash for the difference between the common shares fair value and the pre-established price of $20 which was the fair value on January 1, 2021 on 20,000 SARs. The date of the grant was January 1, 2021 and the required employment (service period) is two years. Assume the common shares’ fair value fluctuated as follows: December 31, 2021, $24; December 31, 2022, $23 and December 31, 2023, $26. Assume, also, that the president exercised half of the SARs on January 1, 2024. Use ASPE but indicate how IFRS determines the value of Share Appreciation Rights
The last item that you need to consider is a contract that your company signed on November 15, 2021 agreeing to purchase 100 barrels of oil at $99 per barrel. Your company anticipated that the price of oil would increase significantly. Since the company requires oil in the production of its product and will need to take delivery of the oil in the new year, they wanted to reduce the risk of increased costs for the oil.
C) ⦁ Prepare all the 2021 journal entries to account for the financial instruments under both ASPE and IFRS.
