Identifies the reason code for the impairment, used for regulatory purposes. Based on your selection, you see various options in the Accounting Information section that affect processing. This option applies to impairments for any accounting basis other than STAT. Options include:

  • None. Default.

  • Intent to Sell. Make no credit/non-credit breakout, as you imply that the security will be sold.

  • Intent to Sell-Non-Credit Reversal. Use to reverse non-credit loss amounts. A negative non-credit amount, used for the reversal, must be equal to the amortized non-credit value on the lot. If you select this option, you see the Non-Credit Loss Local Adjustment field, the Existing Amortized Non-Credit Loss Local field and the Existing Amortized Non-Credit Loss Base field.

  • Likely Required to Sell. Make no credit/non-credit breakout, as you imply that the security will be sold.

  • Likely Required to Sell-Non-Credit Reversal. Use to reverse non-credit loss amounts.

If you select this option, you see the Non-Credit Loss Local Adjustment field, the Existing Amortized Non-Credit Loss Local field, and the Existing Amortized Non-Credit Loss Base field.

  • Not Recovering Amortized Cost. Make a credit/non-credit breakout because the impairments are for securities that you will likely hold for the life of the security.

  • Not Likely Required to Sell. Make a credit/non-credit breakout because the impairments are for securities that you will likely hold for the life of the security.

STAT Reason Code

7002

Hidden. Specifies the reason code for the impairment, used for regulatory purposes. This option applies only to impairments for any accounting basis of STAT. If you choose an accounting basis of STAT, the panel hides the Impairment Reason field and shows the STAT Reason Code field. It stores the value entered as the STAT Reason Code in the Impairment Reason field.

  • None. Default.

  • Intent to Sell. Make no credit/non-credit breakout, as you imply that the security will be sold.

  • Likely Required to Sell. Make no credit/non-credit breakout, as you imply that the security will be sold.

Choose Open Lot

962

Allows you to select an open lot for impairment processing. The lookup displays a list of open lots that met your criteria. When you select a lot, you see additional fields that provide information about that lot.

Lot Impairment Processing Flag

16149

Indicates whether to process the position-level impairment for all lots or only for lots that need to have amortized cost (book value) decreased due to a fall in the local market value or devaluation of the local to base FX rate. Options include:

  • Apply to All Lots. Default. Apply the impairment to all lots, including open lots where you need to increase amortized cost or base amortized cost.

  • Apply Only to Lots to be decreased. Apply the impairment only to lots that qualify for a write-down.

Transfer Method

1872

If you use International Financial Regulatory Standards (IFRS), this value can indicate that you are adjusting entities related to a regulatory class (REGR) made during conversion. A regulatory reclass occurs when you use Eagle Accounting to convert financial assets from an old (IAS 39) IFRS regulatory category to a new (IFRS 9) IFRS regulatory category of Amortized Cost, Fair Value - Other Comprehensive Income, or Fair Value Profit Loss. For example, you move assets from Available for Sale to Amortized Cost. This field appears if you set the Impair by Option to a value of FX or a value of Both Price and FX and the entity has a regulatory category assigned. Options include Regulatory Reclass.

Acquisition Date

216

Displays the original acquisition date for the selected open lot.

Effective Date

35

Specifies the effective date as of which the amortized cost is impaired. This is the trade date of the impairment transaction. You must specify a date less than or equal to the current date. The current date is default value.

Credit/Noncredit Loss Processing

16158

Indicates whether to include credit/non-credit losses for fixed income holdings for the impairment when you impair by price for a position. Options include:

  • Yes. Includes credit/non-credit losses for the impairment. If you select this option, you see the Credit Price field and the Noncredit Price field and no longer see the FMV Price field and Maturity Price Override field.

  • No. Default. Does not include credit/non-credit losses for the impairment.

Credit Price

16150

Specifies the price to use for calculating credit/non-credit losses.

Noncredit Price

7840

Specifies the non-credit price, Non-credit loss is equal to the difference between the non-credit price and the credit price.

FMV Price

45

Specifies the impairment price or fair market value price of the security by unit. This is the unit price to which amortized cost is impaired. The system uses this value to calculate the impairment amount or non-credit loss. If you impair a single entity based on price, you see the latest available local market price of the security as of the selected effective date, but you can override that price. If you are impairing multiple entities based on price, you do not see a default value because there may be different price sources.

Maturity Price Override

2714

Specifies the maturity price to use for amortization in place of the security reference amortization price. Earnings processing recognizes this value as the amortization price in place of the security reference maturity price and applies the maturity price override to all held lots. In addition, if you enter a maturity price override, Eagle Accounting ignores all call/put schedules when calculating amortization and future cash flows. This field appears if you set the Impair by Option to a value of Price or to a value of Both Price and FX.

Local Cost Adjustment

7350

Specifies the amount of the local cost adjustment for the impairment or cost adjustment. For non-STAT bases, the impairment's total local cost adjustment is equal to the credit loss. For STAT bases, the impairment's local cost adjustment value is equal to the sum of the credit and non-credit loss amounts. This entire amount impacts amortized cost for impairments.

Credit Loss Local Adjustment

7358

Specifies the amount of the local credit loss adjustment for the impairment. For non-STAT accounting bases, this value be must equal to the value specified for the Local Cost Adjustment field. For STAT accounting bases with a regulatory category of Held to Maturity, the sum of the Credit Loss Local Adjustment value and the Non-Credit Loss Local Adjustment value must be equal to the total impairment amount.

Non-Credit Loss Local Adjustment

7359

Specifies the amount of the local non-credit loss adjustment for the impairment. For non-STAT accounting bases, this value cannot exceed the amortized cost value on the lot. For STAT accounting bases with a regulatory category of Held to Maturity, the sum of the Credit Loss Local Adjustment value and the Non-Credit Loss Local Adjustment value must be equal to the total impairment amount.

Local to Base FX Rate

87

Specifies the asset currency to portfolio base currency exchange rate. This value is expressed as units of asset currency to one unit of portfolio base currency. The system uses this impairment FX rate to calculate the impairment amount. If you impair a single entity based on FX rate, you see the latest available local to base FX rate as of the selected effective date, but you can override that rate. If you are impairing multiple entities based on FX rate, you do not see a default value because there may be different FX sources.

Existing Amortized Non-Credit Loss Local

7356

Displays the non-credit local amount that you are closing out with a non-credit loss reversal.

Existing Amortized Non-Credit Loss Base

7357

Displays the non-credit base amount that you are closing out with a non-credit loss reversal.

Other Information

 

 

Original Trade Ticket Number

761

Specifies the origin of the trade ticket number for the lot.

Transaction Notes

56

Specifies comments about the transaction.

Cost Offset Amount

1728

Allows you to post ledger entries to gain/loss, amortization, or a specified offset account. Options include:

  • Gain/Loss. Default. If you use IFRS, the system determines the appropriate account based on the direction of the adjustment.

  • Amortization. If you use IFRS, the system determines the appropriate account based on the direction of the adjustment.

  • Other. Allows you to specify a Receive/Deliver offset account. If you select this option, you see the Reason field and Offset Accounting Number field.

Reason

1828

Indicates the reason for the impairment or cost adjustment. The lookup shows codes for the REC_DEL_ACCTS code category to describe the offset account.

Offset Accounting Number

1825

Specifies the offset account for the impairment or cost adjustment.

Recalculate Yield

1257

Determines whether impairment processing runs prospective amortization and prospectively recalculates the yield. Options include:

  • Yes. Impairments automatically run prospective amortization and prospectively recalculate the yield. During the amortization process, Eagle Accounting amortizes the non-credit loss amount when the regulatory category is Held to Maturity (HTM).

  • No. Impairment processing does not recalculate the yield. The Earnings process continues to use the pre-impairment yield.

Bypass Earnings Replay

11793

Determines whether the system suppresses income rollback replay when it processes multiple impairments for a prior date. This can help improve system performance because earnings does not replay multiple times unnecessarily. This field appears only if you select a fixed income security. Options include:

  • Yes. The system bypasses earnings during rollback and replay. When all the adjustments are complete, you can run an income catch-up process using the Reaccrue for Earning Bypass panel so the earnings runs only once.

  • No. The system does not bypass earnings during rollback and replay.
