Basis of Preparation and New IFRS Pronouncements [Abstract] |
Basis of Preparation and New IFRS Pronouncements | Basis of Preparation and New IFRS Pronouncements a) Basis of Preparation These annual consolidated financial statements have been prepared by management in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and were approved by the Board of Directors on February 23, 2022. b) New IFRS Pronouncements Amendments to IAS 16 – Property, Plant and Equipment: Proceeds before Intended Use In May 2020, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 16, Property, Plant and Equipment (IAS 16). The amendments prohibit a company from deducting from the cost of property, plant and equipment amounts received from selling items produced while the company is preparing the asset for its intended use. Instead, a company will recognize such sales proceeds and related costs in profit (loss). An entity is required to apply these amendments for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022. The amendments are applied retrospectively only to items of property, plant and equipment that are available for use after the beginning of the earliest period presented in the financial statements in which the entity first applies the amendments. As at December 31, 2021, we have completed our analysis of these amendments and have determined that there will be no retrospective effect on our 2021 financial results on adoption of the amendments. Since the amendments were effective from January 1, 2022, we expect them to have an effect on the accounting related to the sale of products during the commissioning phase of our Quebrada Blanca Phase 2 project (QB2). Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39, IFRS 7, IFRS 4 and IFRS 16 – Interest Rate Benchmark Reform – Phase 2 In August 2020, the IASB issued amendments to IFRS 9, Financial Instruments (IFRS 9), IAS 39, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement (IAS 39), IFRS 7, Financial Instruments: Disclosures (IFRS 7), IFRS 4, Insurance Contracts (IFRS 4) and IFRS 16, Leases (IFRS 16) as a result of Phase 2 of the IASB’s Interest Rate Benchmark Reform project. The amendments address issues arising in connection with reform of benchmark interest rates, including the replacement of one benchmark rate with an alternative one. The amendments were effective January 1, 2021. For the year ended December 31, 2021, these amendments did not affect our financial statements, as we have not yet transitioned any agreements that are exposed to USD London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) to an alternative benchmark interest rate. Language was included in our sustainability-linked revolving credit facility when we extended its maturity in 2021, which references the Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (Term SOFR) as the replacement rate for LIBOR. Term SOFR was formally recommended by the Alternative Reference Rates Committee (a committee convened by the U.S. Federal Reserve Board) as the recommended fallback for LIBOR based loans. Term SOFR is expected to be economically equivalent to LIBOR, allowing for use of the practical expedient under IFRS 9. We continue to work with our lenders on the replacement of the affected rates for our other significant financial instruments, which is not expected to result in a significant change in our interest rate risk management strategy or our interest rate risk. Our sustainability-linked revolving credit facility, QB2 project financing facility, Compañía Minera Antamina S.A. (Antamina) loan agreement and QB2 advances from Sumitomo Metal Mining Co., Ltd. and Sumitomo Corporation (together referred to as SMM/SC) are our most significant financial instruments that are exposed to LIBOR. These financial instruments are based on LIBOR settings that are currently scheduled to cease publication after June 30, 2023. We will continue to monitor developments on alternative benchmark interest rates and we expect to transition to alternative rates as widespread market practice is established. 2. Basis of Preparation and New IFRS Pronouncements (continued) Amendments to IAS 12 – Income Taxes In May 2021, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 12, Income Taxes (IAS 12). The amendments will require companies to recognize deferred tax on particular transactions that, on initial recognition, give rise to equal amounts of taxable and deductible temporary differences. The proposed amendments will typically apply to transactions such as leases for the lessee and decommissioning and restoration obligations related to assets in operation. An entity is required to apply these amendments for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. Early application is permitted. The amendments are applied to transactions that occur on or after the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented. These amendments do not have an effect on our financial statements, as we currently follow the accounting treatment proposed by the amendments. Therefore, we have early-adopted these amendments on January 1, 2022.
