The following workflows and features support compliance with IFRS 15 and IFRS 16.

IFRS 15

IFRS 15 (or ASC 606), Revenue from Contracts with Customers, affects the allocation and recognition of revenue. Under this regulation, the voyage operating entity is only allowed to recognize revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation of performing the voyage. Voyage expenses continue to be allowed to be capitalized and recognized on the same basis as revenue, following a revenue-expense matching principle.

Effective Date: IFRS 15 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018.

Recognize Voyage Revenue Basis Load-to-Discharge or Delivery-to-Redelivery

For some clients and their auditors, IFRS 15 is interpreted that the voyage operating entity is not allowed to recognize revenue during the positioning of the ship into the load port. Instead of the discharge-to-discharge or redelivery-to-redelivery (or voyage completion percentage) recognition, the entity is expected to recognize basis load-to-discharge or delivery-to-redelivery.

To select Adjust Portion for Ballast Days by default, enable configuration flag CFGDefaultPnlCalcAdjustForBallastDays.

Recognize Demurrage Basis Demurrage Days

Under IFRS 15, demurrage must be recognized as a variable consideration. Under this regulation, future (estimated) demurrage cannot be accrued or deferred to future periods after the vessel has gone on demurrage. Demurrage must be allocated to the period in which it is realized.

...

To quickly view demurrage period allocation details for a Laytime Calculation, open the Period Allocation form (configuration flag CFGLaytimeEnablePeriodAllocation must be enabled).

IFRS 16

Note: Configuration flag CFGEnableTCLeaseAccounting must be enabled.

...

Effective Date: IFRS 16 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019, with earlier application permitted (as long as IFRS 15 is also applied). Configuration Flag CFGTCDefaultLeaseTransitionDate must be defined, in the format: yyyy-MM-ddThh:mm (for example, 2019-01-01T00:00).

Lease Accounting Business Rules

With the help of a Veson Nautical consultant, set up Business Rules for the following journal types.

Time Charter Period Journals

To transfer lease costs to your balance sheet, you can create Time Charter Period Journals. Each Time Charter Period Journal has the following line items, either initial or incremental:

Excerpt

  • Initial: A Credit entry of the journal; posted into a Liability-type ledger account.
  • Incremental: The value of change in Lease Liability as compared to initial journal.
ROU_ASSET
  • Initial: A Debit entry of the journal; posted into an Asset-type ledger account.
  • Incremental: The value of change in Right of Use Asset as compared to initial journal.
BSDIFF
  • Initial: A Debit entry of the journal; posted into a Retained Earning or Gain/Loss type ledger account.
  • Incremental: The value of change in BSDIFF, which should be zero.
ACCDEP
  • Initial: A Credit entry of the journal; posted into a Contra-Asset type ledger account.
  • Incremental: The value of change in Accumulated Depreciation, which should be zero.
ROU_REVERSAL

Reverses the previous period's ROU that was posted, regardless of whether or not there was a lease modification in the previous period.


Lease Cost Journals

When you create Voyage Period Journals, lease line items are included:

Source CodeBill CodeDescription
LCSTCOHAD_REVERSALA reversal of the Address Commission for Off Hire Amount.

On the TC In or TC Out Lease tab, you can set up lease accounting for the contract.

Lease Costs on the Voyage P&L

On the Voyage P&LLease Costs appear in a separate section with the following line items:

  • Hire Reversal: Reverses running cost hire line items, with Hire ReversalHire Add Comm ReversalOff Hire Reversal, and Off Hire Add Comm Reversal subsections.
  • Service: Based on the Service Fee column on the TC Lease tab.
