Bill And Hold Agreement Ifrs 15

A company should consider whether the deposit-taking services (object maintenance and preservation services) it provides to its client are a separate service obligation. If so, part of the contract price should be allocated to deposit services and accounted for separately during the period during which the product is held by the company, as well as the related product storage costs, which is important given that the retention request originates from the customer due to the construction time. thus, the first is accomplished; (a) the reason for the bill and hold rule must be factual; A bill and hold contract is a contract in which a company invoices a product to a customer, but retains physical ownership of the product until it is later transferred to the customer. For example, a customer may ask a company to enter into such a contract because the customer does not have a place available for the product or because the customer`s production plans are delayed. The best way to assess the issue is to examine the requirements of the standard in turn with respect to bill and hold agreements. Keep in mind that the four additional requirements of the Bill and Hold agreement must be met to cover revenue when managing goods: for bill and hold transactions, IFRS 15 sets out four additional criteria, all of which must be met in addition to the general revenue realization criteria to cover turnover: in some cases, the group records turnover on a bill and hold basis when control of the vehicle has been transferred to the customer, however, the group remains in physical possession (B. inside a vehicle immobilizer) until a future date. The turnover is recorded after compliance with the Bill and Hold criteria, considered to be fulfilled, since the reason for bill and-hold is essential (since the customer asks JLR to retain ownership, usually due to a lack of available space on its own premises), the vehicles are identifiable as belonging separately to the customer (based on the fact that each vehicle has a unique vehicle identification number), The vehicle must be ready for physical delivery to the customer (which it is, since it is fully built and verified by the manufacturing line) and the group is not able to use the vehicle or direct it to another location. An entity should record turnover when it fulfils a performance obligation by retransmitting something promised to a customer. Transfers are made when a customer takes control of the business. Under a Bill and Hold agreement, the customer does not immediately take possession of the business, so it can be difficult to define when control is transferred to the customer. Revenue from Bill and Hold agreements should be recognized when a customer takes control of the product. The customer may have control over the receipt of products, but it is also possible that the customer acquires control of the product while still in physical possession of a company.

If the product is retained under the Bill and Hold agreement with the company, but revenue has been recorded for the product, the customer must be able to direct the use of the product and derive essentially all the remaining benefits from it, even if it is not physically owned by the customer. In this case, the customer controls the product and the company provides deposit services for the product. It is therefore necessary to examine whether part of the transaction price is allocated to services which need to be retained if those services meet the requirements of a separate performance obligation. . . .
