Foreign Currency Deposit — Month-End Revaluation
Revaluing USD deposit liabilities at the month-end CBJ official exchange rate.
| Account Name | Type | Debit ($) | Credit ($) |
|---|---|---|---|
| FX Revaluation Loss (P&L) | Expense (+) | 350.00 | - |
| Customer USD Deposits (JOD Equivalent) | Liability (+) | - | 350.00 |
💡 Accountant's Note
If the JOD weakens against USD (unusual given the peg), the JOD value of the USD deposit liability increases, creating a revaluation loss for the bank. In practice, the JOD/USD peg is fixed, so this entry is relevant only for non-USD FX deposits (EUR, GBP).
Practitioner & Systems Framework
💻 ERP Architecture
In SAP, month-end FX revaluation runs via T-Code FAGL_FC_VAL. In Oracle FLEXCUBE, the REVALN batch handles all FX position revaluation using the EOD rate. For JOD/USD, the CBJ peg means no revaluation is needed. For other currencies, the CBJ's published cross rates are used.
⚠️ Audit Flags
Auditors verify revaluation rates match CBJ official rates on the last day of the month. Any bank-sourced rates used instead of CBJ rates for revaluation require written justification. The net FX revaluation P&L must reconcile to the treasury's open position report.
📄 Required Documentation
CBJ official exchange rate bulletin, month-end revaluation batch output, open FX position report, and reconciliation of revaluation P&L to treasury position report.
