Refers to the Australian Accounting Standards Board standard on Financial Instruments: Presentation, which covers the presentation of financial instruments in financial statements.

Financial Liability

Any liability that is a contractual obligation to deliver cash or another financial asset to another entity, or to exchange financial assets or financial liabilities with another entity under conditions that are potentially unfavourable to the entity; or a contract that may be settled in the entity’s own equity instruments and is a non-derivative for which the entity may be obliged to deliver a variable number of the entity’s own equity instruments, or a derivative that may be settled other than by the exchange of a fixed amount of cash or another financial asset for a fixed number of the entity’s own equity instruments. For this purpose, rights, options, or warrants to acquire a fixed number of the entity’s own equity instruments for a fixed amount of any currency are equity instruments if the entity offers the rights, options, or warrants pro rata to all of its existing owners of the same class of its own non-derivative equity instruments.

Contractual Right

A legally enforceable claim that arises out of a contract, allowing the holder to demand performance or compensation.
