| Research Abstract |
Hedge accounting is a special treatment that ensures that changes in the values of the hedged item and the hedging instrument, from the date the hedge is established, are counterbalanced in the same periods. Major issues related to hedge accounting are (1) the interpretation of risk, (2) the assessment of risk reduction (3) the allocation of deferred gains and losses, and (4) the effectiveness of a hedging instrument.
Either marking both the hedged item and hedging instruments to market or marking the derivatives to market will solve many of the hedge problems which are presented today.
Disclosure about derivative financial instruments held for hedges of anticipated transactions is required by FASB statement 119. But survey on annual reports proves that only limited corporations disclose these information. Japanese corporations have not disclosed the financial instruments held for hedges. At least, it is necessary for Japanese corporations to disclose the details of the financial instruments held.
