(a) The difference between debt and equity in an entity’s statement of financial position is not easily distinguishable for preparers of financial statements. Some financial instruments may have both features, which can lead to inconsistency of reporting. The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) has agreed that greater clarity may be required in its definitions of assets and liabilities for debt instruments. It is thought that defining the nature of liabilities would help the IASB’s thinking on the difference between financial instruments classified as equity and liabilities.Required:(i) Discuss the key classification differences between debt and equity under International Financial Reporting Standards.Note: Examples should be given to illustrate your answer. (9 marks)(ii) Explain why it is important for entities to understand the impact of the classification of a financial instrument as debt or equity in the financial statements.

A shares are Cavor’s ordinary shares and are correctly classed as equity. B shares are not mandatorily redeemable shares but contain a call option allowing Cavor to repurchase them. Dividends are payable on the B shares if, and only if, dividends have been paid on the A ordinary shares. The terms of the B shares are such that dividends are payable at a rate equal to that of the A ordinary shares. Additionally, Cavor has also issued share options which give the counterparty rights to buy a fixed number of its B shares for a fixed amount of $10 million. The contract can be settled only by the issuance of shares for cash by Cavor.Lidan has in issue two classes of shares: A shares and B shares. A shares are correctly classified as equity.
