Debt restructuring arises when the risk of existing debt is likely to be defaulted due to financial risk of the debtor and hence, the debtor and the creditor get together to negotiate such debts or the interests thereon by modifying, settling or restructuring. This can be in following ways:
The Journal entries for the above 5 ways of restructuring can be as following:
Old loan a/c Dr | xxx | ||
Interest Payable a/c Dr | xxx | ||
To New loan (1st Method) | xxx | ||
To Bank a/c (2nd method) | xxx | ||
To Asset (transferred) (3rd method) | xxx | ||
To Equity Share capital (4th method) | xxx | ||
To Gain on debt restructuring/settlement | xxx | ||
By/To Gain/(loss) of transfer of asset |
The 5th and 6th way are modification of terms hence won't impact journal entries. However if any interest portion of debt is waived off due to the modifications, it has to treated as 1 above.
New loans and advances made a/c (or Debtor's a/c) (1st method) | xxx | ||
Bank a/c Dr (1st method) | xxx | ||
Asset a/c Dr (@ taken over value) (3rd Method) | xxx | ||
Equity shares in debtor's company a/c Dr (4th method) | xxx | ||
To Old loan and advances made (Or debtor's a/c) | xxx | ||
To Interest receivables a/c | xxx | ||
To Loss on debt restructuring/settlement (or Bad debts) (or Allowance for Uncollectible Receivables) | xxx |
