Fair Value Accounting, Depreciation, Pension Expense, And Liability Calculation

Depreciation using straight-line method

Fair value accounting can be applied to those assets which have no market available by considering the values available for the similar assets in the market and these assets can also be measured using some other methods. As per AASB 13 Para 27 the assets which have no commercial use and which have no market available are exchanged between willing seller and willing buyers only (Barr and McClellan, 2018). They are to be called as specialised assets which are to be valued on the basis of the future income that can be generated from those assets or the exchange value received for those assets, ideally they are not valued at fair value as we will be unable to identify their fair value without having active market for that asset (Hodder, Hopkins and Schipper, 2014). As per AASB 13 Para 22 We can also estimate their value from the similar assets available in the market and which have some market value or we can say fair value available as they are marketable so there must be their fair value or market value of those assets and with the help of these values we can arrive at the nearby fair value of the assets which are not marketable or which have no active market. If we value those assets at the fair value then the assumptions need to be taken by the experts for the valuation of those assets (Machado, Martins and Carvalho, 2015).  The assets which have no active market can either be valued on the basis of the similar assets or by taking some assumptions only if the fair value method of accounting is used for their valuation.
