Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our Opinion

In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of CARD Employees Multi-Purpose Cooperative (the “Cooperative”) as at
December 31, 2019, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended in
accordance with the Philippine Financial Reporting Framework for Cooperatives.

What we have audited

The financial statements of the Cooperative comprise:

• the statement of financial position as at December 31, 2019;


• the statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2019;
• the statement of changes in equity for the year ended December 31, 2019;
• the statement of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2019;
• the notes to the financial statements, which include a summary of significant accounting policies.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with Philippine Standards on Auditing (PSA). Our
responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the
Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis
for our opinion.

Independence

We are independent of the Cooperative in accordance with the Code of Ethics for Professional
Accountants in the Philippines (Code of Ethics), together with the ethical requirements that are
relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the Philippines, and we have fulfilled our other
ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the Code of Ethics.

Other Matter

The financial statements of the Cooperative as at and for the year ended December 31, 2018,
presented for comparative purposes, were audited by another auditor who expressed an unmodified
opinion on those statements in an audit report dated March 15, 2019.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the


Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in
accordance with Philippine Financial Reporting Framework for Cooperatives, and for such internal
control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that
are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible to assessing the Cooperative’s


ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and
using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the
Cooperative or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Cooperative’s financial reporting
process.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole
are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report
that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee
that an audit conducted in accordance with PSA will always detect a material misstatement when it
exists, Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in
the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken
on the basis of these financial statements.
Independent Auditor’s Report
To the Board of Directors and Members of
CARD Employees Multi-Purpose Cooperative
Page 3

As part of an audit in accordance with PSA, we exercise professional judgment and maintain
professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to
fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit
evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not
detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error,
as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override
of internal control.

• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on the effectiveness of the Cooperative’s internal control.

• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting
estimates and related disclosures made by management.

• Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting
and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events
or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Cooperative’s ability to continue as a going
concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our
auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are
inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up
to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the
Cooperative to cease to continue as a going concern.

• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the
disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and
events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned
scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in
internal control that we identify during our audit.

Report on the Bureau of Internal Revenue Requirement

Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements
taken as a whole. The supplementary information under Revenue Regulations 15-2010 in Note 21 to
the financial statements is presented for purposes of filing with the Bureau of Internal Revenue and is
not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such supplementary information is the
responsibility of management and has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audit
of the basic financial statements. In our opinion, the supplementary information is fairly stated in all
material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

m. provisions of the Cooperative Code.

The Cooperative was issued with new Certificate of Registration under Article 144 of Republic Act

Agriculture and Rural Development Mutually Reinforcing Institutions operate.

Net surplus during the year is allocated and distributed to the members of the Cooperative after setting
aside the amounts for statutory reserves. Reserve requirements are further discussed in Note 13.

As set forth in Article 61 of RA 6938, An Act to Ordain a Cooperative Code of the Philippines, duly
registered cooperatives under this code which do not transact any business with non-members or the
general public shall not be subject to any government taxes or fees imposed under the Internal Revenue
Laws and other tax laws. The Cooperative was granted a certificate of tax exemption on December 19,
2017 which shall be valid for five years, until December 19, 2022, unless sooner revoked by the Bureau of
Internal Revenue (BIR) for violation of any provision of the Joint Revenue Regulations, the terms and
conditions indicated in the certificate or upon withdrawal of the Certificate of Registration by the CDA.
As a Cooperative transacting with its members only, the Cooperative is entitled to the following tax
exemptions and incentives provided for under Article 60 of Republic Act No. 9520, as implemented by
Section 7 of the Joint Rules and Regulations implementing Article 60, 61 and 144 of Republic
Act No. 9520:

1. Exemption from income tax on income from CDA-registered operations;


2. Exemption from value-added tax on CDA-registered sales or transactions;
3. Exemption from other percentage tax;
4. Exemption from donor’s tax on donations to duly accredited charitable, research and educational
institutions and reinvestment to socio-economic projects within the area of operation of the
Cooperative;
5. Exemption from excise tax for which it is directly liable;

Total retirement expense for the year ended December 31, 2019 related to Hybrid Plan amounted to
P8,117 (2018 - 2,795).

(11)
The maximum economic benefit of plan assets available is a combination of expected refunds from
the plan and reductions in future contributions.

The fair values of plan assets as at December 31 follows:

2019 2018
Government securities 148,421 5,145,067
Cash and cash equivalents 9,161,605 4,775,259

Loans receivable 1,299,805 -
Mutual funds 64,091 -
Fair value of plan assets 11,243,992 10,750,245

All plan assets do not have quoted prices in an active market except for government securities. Cash
and cash equivalents are deposited in reputable financial institutions and related parties and are
deemed to be standard grade. Mutual fund, loans and other assets are unrated.

The plan assets have diverse investments and do not have any concentration risk other than those in
government securities which are of low risk.

The overall investment policy and strategy of the Cooperative’s defined benefit plans is guided by the
objective of achieving an investment return which, together with contributions, ensures that there
will be sufficient assets to pay pension benefits as they fall due while also mitigating the various risk
of the plans.

The cost of defined retirement plan as well as the present value of the defined benefit obligation is
determined using actuarial valuations. The actuarial valuation involves making various assumptions.
The principal assumptions used in determining pension for the defined benefit plans are shown
below:

The reconciliation of the provision for income tax computed at the statutory income tax rate to
provision for income tax as reported in the statement of comprehensive income as at
December 31 follows:

2019 2018
Discount rates 5.54% 7.70%
Future salary increases 5.00% 5.00%

The sensitivity analysis below has been determined based on reasonably possible changes of significant
assumptions shows the impact on the defined benefit obligation as at the end of the reporting period,
assuming all other assumptions were held constant:

2019 2018
% change in assumption +1.00% -1.00% +1.00% -1.00%
Discount rates (412,757) 484,062 (352,975) 411,122
Salary rates 481,785 (418,399) 418,253 (364,593)

The Cooperative plans to contribute P18,000 to the defined benefit retirement plan in 2020.

The average duration of the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period is 10.4 years.

18 Lease contracts

As a lessor

In 2018, the Cooperative entered into renewable Operating lease agreements with CLFC for one year
without escalation rate.

Operating lease income recognized in 2019 and 2018 under ‘Other income’ amounted to P0.12 million for
each year (Note 15).

The future aggregate minimum lease receivables under operating lease in 2019 within one year and
beyond one year but not more than five years amounted to P0.12 million (P0.02 million).

As a lessee

The Cooperative leases its computer units and server from CLFC. The lease commenced in 2018, with the
lease terms of eighteen (18) months for computers and twenty-four (24) months for the server. Leased
items shall be surrendered to the lessor after the termination of the lease agreement.

Operating lease expense recognized in 2019 under ‘Rentals’ in Administrative Cost amounted to
P233,873 (2018 - P231,357) (Note 16).

(16)
19 Significant accounting judgments and estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in compliance with PFRF for Cooperatives requires the
Cooperative to make judgments and estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities,
income and expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and contingent liabilities.

Future events may occur which will cause the assumptions used in arriving at the estimates to change.
The effects of any change in estimates are reflected in the financial statements as they become reasonably
determinable.

Judgments and estimates are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other
factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the
circumstances.

Critical accounting judgement - Impairment of investment in associate

Investment in associate is reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances


indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. In assessing whether there is any indication
that the Organization's investment in associate is impaired, management considers both external and
internal sources of information such as significant changes with adverse effect on the associate that have
taken place during the period, or will take place in the near future such as plans to discontinue or
restructure the operation of the associate, the carrying amount of the net assets of the associate is more
than its market capitalization, or there is continuing operating losses and decline in cash flows from the
operating activities of the associate.

Critical accounting judgement - Impairment of equity investments at cost

In case of unquoted equity investments classified as ‘Equity investments at cost’, the amount of the
impairment is measured as the difference between the carrying amount of the financial asset and the
present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the current market rate of return for a similar
financial asset. Such impairment losses shall not be reversed.

20 Summary of significant accounting policies

20.1 Basis of preparation

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis. The financial
statements are presented in Philippine Peso, the Cooperative’s functional currency.

20.2 Statement of compliance

On September 16, 2015, the CDA issued Memorandum Circular No. 2015-06 also known as the
Philippine Financial Reporting Framework (PFRF) for Cooperatives which specifically provides for
treatment of certain accounts which are unique only to Cooperatives and such peculiarities are in accord
with universally-accepted cooperative principles. The revised Framework was adopted by the
Cooperative on January 1, 2016, the effective date of PFRF for Cooperatives.

Where PFRF for Cooperatives do not specifically address accounting for a certain transaction, events or
conditions, the Cooperative considers the requirements and guidance in Philippine Financial Reporting
Standard (PFRS) or PFRS for Small and Medium Enterprises (PFRS for SMEs).

The financial statements of the Cooperative have been prepared in accordance with PFRF for
Cooperatives prescribed by the CDA.

(17)
20.3 Accounts peculiar to Cooperatives

The following accounts are peculiar to the Cooperative due to its nature as well as adherence to
Cooperative laws, issued policies, rules and regulations, as well as cooperative principles and practices:

• Interest on share capital and patronage


• Due to union/federation
• Statutory funds
• Income taxes - the Cooperative Code states that a cooperative transacting business only with its
members is exempt from all government taxes, and therefore cannot apply the PAS for income taxes
because of its tax - exempt nature.

For cooperatives transacting business with both members and non-members with accumulated reserves
and undivided net savings of not more than ten million pesos (P10.00 million), they shall be exempt
from all national, city, provincial, municipal or barangay taxes of whatever name and nature. Should a
cooperative exceed the limit set forth, it shall be imposed taxes and fees based on the provisions as
indicated in Article 61 of the Cooperative Code; consequently, it will adopt the accounting standards for
income taxes as stated in PAS 12, Income taxes.

In 2019 and 2018, the Cooperative only transacted business with its members.

• Presentation of withdrawable common and preferred shares as equity.

20.4 Presentation of financial statements

The Cooperative presents its statement of financial position broadly in order of liquidity. Financial assets
and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the statement of financial position
only when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention
to settle on a net basis or to realize the assets and settle the liability simultaneously. Income and
expenses are not offset in the statement of operations unless required or permitted by any accounting
standard or interpretation and as specifically disclosed in the accounting policies of the Cooperative.

20.5 Current versus non-current classifications

The Cooperative presents assets and liabilities in the statement of financial position based on current and
non-current classification. An asset is current when it is:

• Expected to be realized or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle;


• held primarily for the purpose of trading;
• expected to be realized within twelve months after the reporting period; or
• cash or cash equivalents unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at
least twelve months after the reporting period.

All other assets are classified as non-current.

A liability is current when:

• It is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle;


• It is held primarily for the purpose of trading;
• It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period; or
• There is unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months alter
the reporting period.

The Cooperative classifies all other liabilities as non-current.

(18)
20.6 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash includes cash on hand and in banks. Cash in banks earn interest at the prevailing bank deposit
rates. Cash equivalents are short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known
amounts of cash with original maturities of three (3) months or less from date of placements and that are
subject to insignificant risk of change in value. Checks and other cash items are composed of undeposited
checks.

20.7 Financial instruments - initial recognition and subsequent measurement

A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial
liability or equity instrument of another entity.

20.7.1 Date of recognition

Purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of the assets within the time frame established
by regulation or convention in the marketplace are recognized on settlement date. Generally, settlement
date is the date on which the transaction is settled by delivery of the assets that are subject of the
agreement. Settlement date accounting refers to (a) the recognition of an asset on the day it is received by
the Cooperative, and (b) the recognition of an asset and recognition of any gain or loss on disposal on the
day that such asset is delivered by the Cooperative. Loans and receivables are recognized when cash is
received by the Cooperative or advanced to the borrowers.

20.7.2 Initial recognition of financial instruments

The Cooperative shall recognize a financial asset or a financial liability only when the cooperative
becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. When a financial asset or financial
liability is recognized initially; a cooperative shall measure it at the transaction price unless the
arrangement constitutes, in effect, a financing transaction. A financing transaction may take place in
connection with the sale of goods or services, for example, if payment is deferred beyond normal
business terms or is financed at a rate of interest that is not a market rate. If the arrangement constitutes
a financing transaction, the Cooperative shall measure the financial asset or financial liability at the
present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt
instrument.

20.7.3 Subsequent measurement

At the end of each reporting period, the Cooperative shall measure financial instruments as follows,
without any deduction for transaction costs the Cooperative may incur on sale or other disposal:

• Debt instruments shall be measured at amortized cost using the effective or straight line
interest amortization method.
• Debt instruments that are classified as current assets or current liabilities shall be measured at the
undiscounted amount of the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received (i.e., net
of impairment unless the arrangement constitutes, in effect, a financial transaction). If the
arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, the cooperative shall measure the debt instrument
at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar
debt instrument.
• Investments in publicly-traded securities shall be measured at fair value with changes in fair
value recognized in profit or loss.
• Investments in non-publicly-traded securities (Note 4) shall be measured at cost less impairment.

(19)
20.7.4 Derecognition of financial instruments

Financial asset

The Cooperative shall derecognize a financial asset only when:

(a) the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or are settled, or
(b) the Cooperative transfers to another party substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership
of the financial asset, or
(c) the Cooperative, despite having retained some significant risks and rewards of ownership, has
transferred control of the asset to another party and the other party has the practical ability to sell
the asset in its entirety to an unrelated third party and is able to exercise that ability unilaterally and
without needing to impose additional restrictions on the transfer. In this case, the cooperative shall:

i. derecognize the asset; and


ii. recognize separately any rights and obligations retained or created in the transfer.

The carrying amount of the transferred asset shall be allocated between the rights or obligations retained
and those transferred on the basis of their relative fair values at the transfer date. Newly created rights
and obligations shall be measured at their fair values at that date. Any difference between the
consideration received and the amounts recognized and derecognized in accordance with this paragraph
shall be recognized in profit or loss in the period of the transfer.

If a transfer does not result in derecognition because the cooperative has retained significant risks and
rewards of ownership of the transferred asset, the Cooperative shall continue to recognize the transferred
asset in its entirety and shall recognize a financial liability for the consideration received. The asset and
liability shall not be offset. In subsequent periods, the Cooperative shall recognize any income on the
transferred asset and any expense incurred on the financial liability.

If a transferor provides non-cash collateral (such as debt or equity instruments) to the transferee, the
accounting for the collateral by the transferor and the transferee depends on whether the transferee has
the right to sell or re-pledge the collateral and on whether the transferor has defaulted.

The transferor and transferee shall account for the collateral as follows:

(a) If the transferee has the right by contract or custom to sell or re-pledge the collateral, the transferor
shall reclassify that asset in its statement of financial condition (e.g., as a loaned asset, pledged equity
instruments or repurchase receivable) separately from other assets.
(b) If the transferee sells collateral pledged to it, it shall recognize the proceeds from the sale and a
liability measured at fair value for its obligation to return the collateral.
(c) If the transferor defaults under the terms of the contract and is no longer entitled to redeem the
collateral, it shall derecognize the collateral, and the transferee shall recognize the collateral as its
asset initially measured at fair value or, if it has already sold the collateral, derecognize its
obligation to return the collateral.
(d) Except as provided in (c), the transferor shall continue to carry the collateral as its asset, and the
transferee shall not recognize the collateral as an asset.

Financial liability

A cooperative shall derecognize a financial liability (or a part of a financial liability) only when it is
extinguished (i.e. when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, is cancelled or expires).

(20)
Offsetting of financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are only offset and the net amount reported in the statement of
financial position when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts and the
Cooperative intends to either settle on a net basis or to realize the asset and the liability simultaneously.
This is not generally the case with master-netting agreements and the related assets and liabilities are
presented gross in the statement of financial condition.

Income and expense are not offset in the statement of operations unless required or permitted by any
accounting standard or interpretation, and as specifically disclosed in the accounting policies of the
Cooperative.

As at December 31, 2019 and 2018, no financial assets and liabilities were offset.

Impairment of financial assets

The Cooperative assesses at each reporting date whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset
or group of financial assets is impaired. A financial asset or a group of financial assets is deemed to be
impaired if, and only if, there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that
has occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (an incurred ‘loss event’) and that loss event (or
events) has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or the group of financial
assets that can be reliably estimated. Evidence of impairment may include indications that the borrower
or a group of borrowers is experiencing significant financial difficulty, default or delinquency in interest
or principal payments, the probability that they will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization
and where observable data indicate that there is measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows,
such as changes in arrears or economic conditions that correlate with defaults.

Loans and receivables

Loans to members not paid in installment due date are considered as portfolio-at-risk (PAR). The
CDA prescribes loss rates to be applied to PAR on the basis of the following:

%
Past due for 360 days and above 100.00%
Past due 30 days but less than 360 days 35.00%

Equity investments at cost

In case of unquoted equity investments classified as ‘Equity investments at cost’, the amount of the
impairment is measured as the difference between the carrying amount of the financial asset and the
present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the current market rate of return for a similar
financial asset. Such impairment losses shall not be reversed.

20.8 Investment in associates

Associates pertain to all entities over which the Cooperative has significant influence. Significant
influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee, but is
not control or joint control over those policies.

The Cooperative’s investments in associate is accounted for using the cost method of accounting per
guidelines set by the CDA. In the absence of published price quotation, the Cooperative measures
investment in associate at cost less any accumulated impairment losses recognized. An impairment loss
occurs when the carrying amount of the investment in associate exceeds its recoverable amount and is
recognized in the statement of operations. Dividends received and other distributions from the associate
is recognized as ‘Dividend income’ in the statement of operations.

(21)
20.9 Property and equipment

Property and equipment, except land, are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated
impairment losses, if any. Land is stated at cost less any impairment in value. The initial cost of property
and equipment consists of its purchase price, including taxes and any directly attributable costs to bring
the asset to its working condition and location for its intended use. Expenditures incurred after items of
property and equipment have been put into operation, such as repairs and maintenance are normally
charged against operations in the period in which the costs are incurred. In situations where it can be
clearly demonstrated that the expenditures have resulted in an increase in the future economic benefits
expected to be obtained from the use of an item property and equipment beyond its originally assessed
standard of performance, the expenditures are capitalized as an additional cost of property and
equipment. All other repair and maintenance expenses are charged to current operation as incurred.

Depreciation commences once the assets are available for use, it is computed using the straight-line
method over the estimated useful lives (EUL) of the respective assets.

The EULs of the depreciable assets are as follows:

No. of years
Land improvements 3
Building 10
Building improvements 3
Furniture, fixtures and equipment 3

The EUL and the depreciation method are reviewed periodically to ensure that the period and the
method of depreciation and amortization are consistent with the expected pattern of economic benefits
from items of property and equipment. If there is an indication that there has been a significant change
in depreciation rate, useful life or residual value of an asset, the depreciation of that asset is revised
prospectively to reflect the new expectation.

An item of property and equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits
are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated as
the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the
statement of operations in the year the asset is derecognized.

The carrying values of the property and equipment are reviewed for impairment when events or changes
in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. If any such indication exists and
where the carrying values exceed the estimated recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognized
under ‘Provision for credit and impairment losses” in the statement of operations.

Fully depreciated assets are retained in the accounts until they are no longer in use and no further
depreciation is credited against statement of operations.

20.10 Investment properties

Investment properties refers to cost of properties or a portion there of that generate income or capital
appreciation or both, not used in production of goods, supply or services, nor for administrative purposes
or sale in the ordinary course of business are measured initially at cost. Subsequent to initial recognition,
investment properties are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment
losses, if any.

(22)
Investment property is derecognized either when they have been disposed of or when the investment
property is permanently withdrawn from use and no future benefit is expected from its disposal. Any
gains or losses on the retirement or disposal of an investment property are recognized in the statement of
operations in the period of retirement or disposal, Expenditures incurred after the investment property
has been put into operations, such as repairs and maintenance costs, are charged against income in the
year in which the costs are incurred.

Transfers are made to investment property when, and only when, there is a change in use or purpose,
evidenced by cessation of owner-occupation or of construction or development, or commencement of an
operating lease to another party. Transfers are made from investment property when, and only when,
there is a change in use, evidenced by commencement of owner-occupation or commencement of
development with a view to sale.

20.11 Computerization cost

Computerization cost pertains to the software purchased by the Cooperative recognized at cost.

Computerization cost is amortized over three (3) years and assessed for impairment whenever there is an
indication that the software may be impaired. The amortization period and method for software with a
finite useful life is reviewed at least at the end of each reporting period. Changes in the expected useful
life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset are
considered to modify the amortization period or method, as appropriate, and are treated as changes in
accounting estimates. The amortization expense on computerization cost is recognized as ‘Depreciation
and amortization’ in the statement of operations.

20.12 Impairment of non-financial asset

The Cooperative assesses the impairment of its property and equipment, investment properties,
investment in associate, and computerization cost, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate
that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. The factors that the Cooperative considers
important which could trigger an impairment review include the following:

• significant underperformance relative to expected historical or projected future operating results;


• significant changes in the manner of use of the assets; and
• significant negative industry or economic trends.

Recoverable amount

The recoverable amount of an asset or a cash-generating unit is the higher of its fair value less costs to
sell and its value in use. If it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset to
an asset should be read as references also to an asset’s cash-generating unit.

It is not always necessary to determine both an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. If
either of these amounts exceeds the asset’s carrying amount, the asset is not impaired and it is not
necessary to estimate the other amount.

If there is no reason to believe that an asset’s value in use materially exceeds its fair value less costs to
sell, the asset’s fair value less costs to sell may be used as its recoverable amount. This will often be the
case for an asset that is held for disposal.

(23)
Reversal of impairment

Cooperative shall assess at each reporting date whether there is any indication that an impairment loss
recognized in prior periods may no longer exist or may have decreased. If any such indication exists, the
Cooperative shall determine whether all or part of the prior impairment loss should be reversed. The
procedure for making that determination will depend on whether the prior impairment loss on the asset
was based on the recoverable amount of that individual asset, or the recoverable amount of the
cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

20.13 Equity

Share capital

Share capital refers to the unit of capital stated in common or preferred share issued by the Cooperative,
subscribed and paid by its members. This is measured at par for all shares issued.

Minimum share capital subscription

A member shall subscribe at least three thousand pesos (P3,000.00) and pay for the value under the
terms and conditions prescribed in the Membership and Subscription Agreement.

Deposit for share capital subscription

Deposit for share capital subscription represents payments made on subscription of shares which cannot
be directly credited to ‘Common shares’ or ‘Preferred shares’ pending application for increase in
authorized capital shares with CDA. Deposit for share capital subscription is classified under equity per
guidelines set by the CDA.

Statutory funds

Statutory funds are mandatory funds set up in accordance with Article 86 of RA 9520 which include
general reserve fund, cooperative education and training fund, community development fund and
optional fund.

General reserve fund

10.00% shall be set aside for the reserve fund. The reserve fund shall be used for the stability of the
Cooperative and to meet net losses in its operations. The general assembly may decrease the amount
allocated to the reserve fund when it has already exceeded the authorized share capital. Any sum
recovered on items previously charged to the reserve fund shall be credited to such fund.

Cooperative education and training fund

1.00% shall be set aside for Cooperative Education and Training Fund (CETF). The fund shall provide for
the training and development and similar other activities geared towards the growth of the
Cooperative. Half of the amounts allocated to the education and training fund annually under this
subsection maybe remitted to a union or federation chosen by the Cooperative of which it is a member.

Community development fund

3.00% shall be set aside for Community Development Fund. The fund shall provide for the projects and
activities that will benefit the community where the Cooperative operates.

(24)
Optional fund

7.00% shall be set aside for Optional Fund for land and building fund, and such other developmental
purposes as may be identified by the Cooperative as approved by the general assembly.

20.14 Share capital transactions

The Cooperative accumulates share capital from contribution of members and share of the shareholders
from the undivided net surplus. The shares are redeemable upon termination of membership of the
member.

Refund of paid-up share capital

A member whose membership is terminated shall be entitled to a refund of his/her share capital
contribution and all other interests in the Cooperative less outstanding loan obligations and other
financial accountabilities. However, such refund shall not be made if upon payment, the value of the
assets of the Cooperative would be less than the aggregate amount of its debts and liabilities exclusive of
his/her share capital contribution. In which case, the terminated member shall continue to be entitled to
the interest of his/her share capital contributions, patronage refund and the use of the services of the
Cooperative until such time that all his/her interests in the Cooperative shall have been duly paid. Upon
the acceptance of his/her withdrawal or approval of his/her termination, however, he/she losses his/her
right to attend, participate and vote in any meeting of the BOD or the general assembly.

Members’ shares are classified as equity if the Cooperative has an unconditional right to refuse
redemption of the members’ shares.

Interest in share capital and patronage

Interest on share capital and patronage are recognized as liability and pertains to interest on share
capital and for patronage refund due to members of the Cooperatives, which are determined based on
distributable earnings at each end of the reporting date.

Due to union/federation

All amount set aside for the education and training fund recognized as liability, which is 50.00% of the
amount allocated for the CETF.

20.15 Income and expenses

Income and expenses in the statement of operations are recognized in the books using the modified
accrual basis of accounting.

20.16 Revenue recognition

As a rule, cooperatives adopt the accrual basis of accounting. However, for credit and other cooperatives,
recognition of revenues is on a modified accrual basis; i.e., interest income, fines, penalties and
surcharges shall be recognized when earned and actually collected. This is because only interest income,
fines, penalties and surcharges on loans receivable that has been realized (i.e., earned and collected) shall
be the basis of the income available for distribution to its members through interest on share capital and
patronage refund.

Interest income

Interest income is recognized when earned and collected.

(25)
Dividend income

Dividend is recognized when received.

Membership and administrative fee

Membership and administrative fees pertain to membership fees and income from handling the health
fund of CARD-MRI employees which are collected and recognized upon receipt of cash.

Miscellaneous income

Miscellaneous income consists of income that does not come from the main operations of the
Cooperative and does not fall to any of the income accounts and is recognized when earned.

20.17 Costs and expenses

Costs and expenses encompass losses as well as those expenses that arise in the course of the ordinary
activities of the Cooperative. Costs and expenses are recognized when incurred.

20.18 Leases

As a lessee

Leases in which the lessor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of an asset are
classified as operating leases. Operating lease payments are recognized by the Cooperative as an expense
under ‘Miscellaneous expense’ in the statement of operations on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

As a lessor

Leases in which the Cooperative does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of
an asset are classified as operating leases. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an
operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognized over the lease term
on the same basis as rental income. Contingent rents are recognized as revenue under ‘Miscellaneous
income’ in the statement of operations in the period in which they are earned.

20.19 Retirement benefits

The Cooperative is covered by a funded, non-contributory defined benefit retirement plan.

The Cooperative’s retirement cost is determined using the projected unit credit method. Under this
method, the current service cost is the present value of retirement benefits payable in the future with
respect to services rendered in the current period.

Net interest on the net defined benefit liability or asset is the change during the period in the net defined
benefit liability or asset that arises from the passage of time which is determined by applying the
discount rate based on government bonds to the net defined benefit liability or asset. Net interest on the
net defined benefit liability or asset is recognized as expense or income in the statement of operations.

The net defined benefit liability or asset is the aggregate of the present value of the defined benefit
obligation at the end of the reporting period reduced by the fair value of plan assets, adjusted for any
effect of limiting a net define benefit asset to the asset ceiling. Tire asset ceiling is the present value of any
economic benefits available in the form of refunds from the plan or reductions in the future contributions
to the plan. The defined benefit obligation is calculated annually by an independent actuary using the
projected unit credit method. The present value of the defined benefit obligation is determined by
discounting the estimated future cash outflows using interest rate on government bonds that have terms
to maturity approximating the terms of the related retirement liability.

(26)
Remeasurements comprising actuarial gains and losses, return on plan assets and any change in the
effect of the asset ceiling (excluding net interest on defined benefit liability) are recognized immediately
in the statement of operations in the period in which they arise.

20.20 Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Cooperative has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a
result of a past event and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be
required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
Where the Cooperative expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, the reimbursement is
recognized as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain.

The expense relating to any provision is presented in the statement of operations, net of any
reimbursement. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are determined by
discounting the expected future cash flows that reflects current market assessments of the time value of
money and, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. Where discounting is used, the increase
in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as an ‘Interest expense’ in the statement of
operations.

20.21 Contingent liabilities and contingent assets

Contingent liabilities are not recognized in the financial statements but are disclosed unless the
possibility of an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote. Contingent assets are not
recognized but are disclosed in the financial statements when an inflow of economic benefits is probable.

20.22 Events after the reporting date

Post-year-end events that provide additional information about the Cooperative’s position at the
reporting date (adjusting events), are reflected in the financial statements. Post-year-end events that are
not adjusting events, if any, are disclosed when material in the notes to the financial statements.
