CHAPTER 8
NOTE PAYABLE
TECHNICAL KNOWLEDGE
To define a promissory note.
To know the initial measurement of note payable.
To understand the subsequent measurement of note
payable at amortized cost.
To understand the fair value option of measuring note
payable.NOTE PAYABLE
A promissory note is an unconditional promise in. writing
made by one person to another, signed by the maker, engaging
to pay on demand or at a fixed or determinable future time a
sum certain in money to order or to bearer.
Initial measurement of note payable
PFRS 9, paragraph 5.1.1, provides that a note payable not
designated at fair value through profit or loss shall be
measured initially at fair value minus transaction costs that
are directly attributable to the issue of the note payable.
In other words, transaction costs are included in the
measurement of note payable,
However, ifthe note payable is irrevocably designated st
fair value through profit or loss, the transaction costs are
expensed immediately.
The fair value of the note payable is equal to the present
value of the future cash payment to settle the note payable
using market rate of interest.
Subsequent measurement of note payable
PFRS 9, paragraph 5.3.1, provides that after initial
recognition, a note payable shall be measured:
a. At amortized cost using the effective interest method.
b. At fair value through profit or loss if the note payable is
designated irrevocably as measured at fair value
through profit or loss.
Amortized cost of note payable
The amortized cost of note pay
the note payable is measured

Discount on note payable 120,000
Note payable 1,000,009
Actually, the discount on note payable of P120,000 is the total
interest expense for one year.
Thus, on December 31, 2020, after 2 months, the discount on
note payable is amortized as interest expense.
Interestexpense 20,000 ~
Discount on note payable 20,000
(120,000x 2/12)
The straight line method is used inf amortizing the discount
on note payable for simplicity. Besides, the note payable has
only a term of one year.
If a statement of financial position is prepared on December
31, 2020, the note payable is classified and reported as currestInterest bearing note issued for property
When a property or noncash asset is acquired by issuing a
promissory note which is interest bearing, the property or
asset is recorded at the purchase price.
‘The purchase price is reasonably assumed to be the present
value of the note and therefore, the fair value of the property
because the note issued is interest bearing.
Illustration
On January 1, 2020, an entity acquired an equipment for
P1,000,000 payable in 5 annual equal installments every
December 31 of each year. Interest is 10% on the unpaid
balance.

The difference between the cash price and the face of th,

The imputed interest is based on the sound philosophy tha
no lender would part away with his money or property
interest-free.

Note payable represents the amount outstanding every year..
The note was issued on January 1, 2020 and the first payment
was made on December 31, 2020.
‘Thus, for 2019, the note payable outstanding is P400,000.
Fraction is developed from the note payable outstanding
every year.
Amortization is the amount of discount multiplied by the
fraction developed.
Thus, for 2020, P150,000 times 4/10 equals P60,000.Another illustration - no cash price
i ired an equipme,
On January 1, 2020, an entity acquires Nt fop
P1,000,000 payable in 6 equal annual installments on eye,
December 31 of each year.
Observe that there is no agreed interest and no cash price ;,
available for the equipment.
In such a case, the cost of the equipment is equal to the
present value of the P200,000 annual installments in 5 year,
at an appropriate rate of 10%.
The rate of 10% is assumed to be the prevailing market rate of
interest.
‘The present value of an ordinary annuity of 1 for 5 years a
10% is 3.7908.
Therefore, the present value of five P200,000 installments
is P758,160, computed by multiplying P200,000 by the
present value factor of 3.7908.

Payment represents the annual installment:
Interest is equal to the preceding present value multiplied
by the implied interest rate. Thus, for 2020, P758,160 times
10% equals P75,816.
Principal is the portion of the payment after deducting
interest representing principal.
Thus, on December 31, 2020, P200,000 minus the interest of
P75,816 equals P124,184.
Present value is the balance of the preceding present value .
after deducting the principal payment.
Thus, on December 81, 2020, P758,160 minus the principal
payment of P124,184 equals P633,976.
On December 31, 2020, the current portion of the note payable
would be reported as current liability.

Interest expense is equal to the preceding present value
multiplied by the implied interest rate.
Thus, for 2020, P676,170 times 10% equals P67,617.
Discount on note payable is the balance minus the interest
expense every year.
Thus, on December 31, 2020, P223,830 minus the interest of |
- P67,617 equals P156,213.
Present value is the preceding balance plus the interest
expense every year.
Thus, on December 31, 2020, P676,170 plus the interest of
P67,617 equals P743,787.Fair value option of measuring note payable |

PFRS 9, paragraph 5.7.7, provides that t! a
financial liability designated at fair value through profit op
loss shall be accounted for as follows:
a. The change in fair value attributable to the credit risk ig
recognized in other comprehensive income.
Credit risk is the risk that the issuer of the liability would
cause a financial loss to the other party by failing to
discharge the obligation.
Credit risk does not include market risk such as interest
risk, currency risk and price risk.
b. The remaining amount of the change in fair value is
recognized in profit or loss.
Application Guidance B5.7.9 provides that amount
recognized in other comprehensive income resulting from
change in fair value attributable to credit risk shall not be
subsequently transferred to profit dr loss.
However, the cumulative gain or loss recognized may be
transferred within equity or retained earnings.
Under the fair value option, any transaction cost is recognized
as outright expense. -

On January 1, 2020, an entity borrowed from a bank
4,000,000 on a 12% 5-year interest bearing note.
The entity received P4,000,000 which is the fair value of the
note on danuary 1, 2020. Transaction cost of P100,000 was
paid by the entity.
The fair value of the note payable was P3,500,000 on
December 31, 2020.
The entity has elected irrevocably the fair value option
for measuring the note payable.
The change in fair value comprised P50,000 attributable to
credit risk and P450,000 attributable to interest risk.
