An entity shall apply those amendments when it applies AASB 9 as issued in December 2010.
10 In Appendix B, paragraphs B1-B5 are amended to read as follows, and a heading and paragraph B8, and a heading and paragraph B9 are added:
B1 An entity shall apply the following exceptions:
(a) derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities (paragraphs B2 and B3);

Derecognition of financial assets and fi Derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities
Derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities
B2 Except as permitted by paragraph B3, a first-time adopter shall apply the derecognition requirements in AASB 9 Financial Instruments prospectively for transactions occurring on or after 1 January 2004. In other words, if a first-time adopter derecognised non-derivative financial assets or non-derivative financial liabilities in accordance with its previous GAAP as a result of a transaction that occurred before 1 January 2004, it shall not recognise those assets and liabilities in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (unless they qualify for recognition as a result of a later transaction or event).
B3 Despite paragraph B2, an entity may apply the derecognition requirements in AASB 9 retrospectively from a date of the entity’s choosing, provided that the information needed to apply AASB 9 to financial assets and financial liabilities derecognised as a result of past transactions was obtained at the time of initially accounting for those transactions.
