On 31 October 20X3:

* The company hedged the currency risk using a forward contract at nil cost for settlement on 31 March 20X4.   
* The transaction was correctly treated as a cash flow hedge in accordance with IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. On 31 December 20X3, the financial year end, the fair value of the forward contract was $10,000 (asset).
How should the increase in the fair value of the forward contract be treated within the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 20X3?

  1. Not recognised in 20X3 as the forward contract is not settled until after the year end.
  2. Not recognised in 20X3 as the gain will be offset by a loss on the hedged transaction.
  3. A $10,000 profit will be recognised within the Income Statement.
  4. A $10,000 profit will be recognised within other comprehensive income.

question 35 is incorrect, the correct answer is c, it even states so: explanation: when a vm is infected with ransomware, you should not restore the vm to the infected vm. this is because the ransomware will still be present on the vm, and it will encrypt the files again. you should also not restore the vm to any vm within the companys subscription. this is because the ransomware could spread to other vms in the subscription. the best way to restore a vm that is infected with ransomware is to restore it to a new azure vm. this will ensure that the ransomware is not present on the new vm.
