Closing rate is the spot exchange rate at the end of the reporting

Functional currency is the currency of the primary economic

Foreign currency is a currency other than the functional currency
of the entity.
Presentation currency is the currency in which the financial
statements are presented.
Spot exchange rate is the exchange rate for immediate delivery.
Foreign operation is an entity that is a subsidiary, associate, join

Include a requirement to determine “functional

Specific criteria for using a currency other than
VND as an accounting currency (Circular
244/2009/TT-BTC) (at least 70% of transactions
are with the parent entities or in the parent
entities’ currency). Replaced by Circular
200/2014/TT-BTC.
IAS 21 doesn’t include the requirements for
distinguishing between foreign operations that
are integral to the operations of the reporting
entities and foreign entities.
