Mortgage loans held for sale shall be reported at the lower of amortized cost or fair value, determined as of the balance sheet date. If a mortgage loan has been the hedged item in a fair value hedge that is not a portfolio layer method hedge (as addressed in Topic 815), the loan’s amortized cost basis used in lower-of-amortized-cost-or-fair value accounting shall reflect the effect of the adjustments of its carrying amount made pursuant to paragraph 815-25-35-1(b).
If a mortgage loan that is held for sale is included in a closed portfolio hedged in an existing portfolio layer method hedge, the loan’s amortized cost basis used in the lower-of-amortized-cost-basis-or-fair-value accounting shall not reflect the effect of the adjustments made pursuant to paragraph 815-25-35-1(c). If that portfolio layer method hedge is discontinued pursuant to paragraphs 815-25-40-7A though 40-8, the loan’s amortized cost basis used in lower-of-amortized-basis-or-fair-value accounting shall reflect the effect of the adjustments of its carrying amount made pursuant to paragraphs 815-25-35-1(b) and 815-25-40-9 through 40-9A.
The amount by which amortized cost exceeds fair value shall be accounted for as a valuation allowance. Changes in the valuation allowances shall be included in the determination of net income of the period in which the change occurs. Purchase discounts on mortgage loans shall not be amortized as interest revenue during the period the loans or securities are held for sale.
Capitalized costs of acquiring rights to service mortgage loans, associated with the purchase or origination of mortgage loans (see paragraph 860-50-25-1), shall be excluded from the cost of mortgage loans for the purpose of determining the lower of cost or fair value.
