   ASC 815-35 governs the subsequent measurement of hedges of a net investment in a foreign operation (designated under 815-20). The effective portion of the gain or loss on the hedging derivative — or the foreign currency transaction gain or loss on a nonderivative hedging instrument such as foreign-currency debt — is reported the same way as a translation adjustment, i.e., in the cumulative translation adjustment (CTA) section of other comprehensive income (815-35-35-1). An entity elects either the spot method or the forward method to assess effectiveness and must apply that choice consistently to all derivative net investment hedges (815-35-35-4).
