Under IFRS 9, how is a modification gain or loss calculated for a financial liability that is modified but NOT extinguished?

  1. Difference between the original carrying amount and the PV of modified cash flows discounted at the original effective interest rate.
  2. Difference between the original carrying amount and the simple undiscounted sum of all new contractual cash flows expected.
  3. Difference between the original carrying amount and the present value of the new cash flows discounted at the current market interest rate.
  4. There is no such calculation to perform, because IFRS 9 categorically prohibits any gain or loss recognition unless the debt is fully extinguished.
