STATEMENT ON INTERNAL CONTROL

INTRODUCTION

Pursuant to Paragraph 15.26(b) of the Main Market Listing Requirements of Bursa Malaysia SecuritiesBerhad (“Bursa Securities”), the Board of Directors of Emico Holdings Berhad is pleased to provide thefollowing statement on the state of internal control of the Group, which outlines the nature andscope of internal control of the Group during the financial period 1 January 2011 to 31 March 2012.

RESPONSIBILITY FOR RISK AND INTERNAL CONTROL

The Board recognises the importance of a sound system of internal control and a structuredrisk management framework to good corporate governance. The Board affirms its overallresponsibility for the Group’s system of internal control and for reviewing the adequacy andintegrity of those systems. Because of the limitations that are inherent in any systems ofinternal control, those systems are designed to manage rather than eliminate the risk of failureto achieve business objectives, and can only provide reasonable and not absolute assuranceagainst material misstatement or loss.

Following the publication of The Statement on internal control: Guidance for Directors of public listedcompanies (the “Internal Control Guidance”), the Board affirms that there is an established ongoingprocess for identifying, evaluating and managing the significant risks faced, or potentially exposedto, by the Group in pursuing its business objectives. This process has been in place throughout thefinancial year and up to the date of approval of the annual report. The adequacy and effectivenessof this process have been continually reviewed by the Board.

Although the Board is the ultimate owner of risk assessment and internal control systems of theGroup, Management has been tasked with the implementation of risk management and internalcontrol systems, within the framework adopted by the Board.

RISK MANAGEMENT

The Board and management practice proactive significant risks identification on a quarterly basis orearlier as appropriate, particularly any major proposed transactions, changes in nature of activitiesand/or operating environment, or venturing into new operating environment which may entaildifferent risks, and put in place the appropriate risk response strategies and controls until those risksare managed to, and maintained at, a level acceptable to the Board.

INTERNAL AUDIT FUNCTION

The Board acknowledges the importance of internal audit function and has engaged the services ofan independent professional accounting and consulting firm, internal auditor : Q-West CorporateConsultants Sdn. Bhd. to provide much of the assurance it requires regarding the effectiveness as wellas the adequacy and integrity of the Group’s systems of internal control.

The internal audit adopts a risk-based approach in developing its audit plan which addressesall the core auditable areas of the Group based on their risk profile. Scheduled internal auditsare carried out by the Internal Auditors based on the audit plan presented to and approved bythe Audit Committee. The audit focuses on areas with high risk and inadequate controls toensure that an adequate action plan has in place to improve the controls. For those areas withhigh risk and adequate controls, the audit ascertains that the risks are effectively mitigated by thecontrols. On a quarterly basis or earlier as appropriate, the internal auditors report to the AuditCommittee on areas for improvement and will subsequently follow up to determine the extent oftheir recommendations that have been implemented.

The 8.1% increase in average turnover per quarterwas primarily attributed to the higher turnover from manufacturing and trading divisions. Even thoughwith these divisions achieving a higher turnover, the Group posted a loss before tax for the currentperiod which was attributable to the following reasons:-

MANUFACTURING - CONSUMER PRODUCTS

Manufacturing of consumer products which consist of Trophy & OEM division posted a higherturnover of RM50.3 million for 15 months ended 31 March 2012 as compared to RM34.8 millionfor 12 months ended 31 December 2010. On the average per quarter basis, the turnover increasedby RM1.3 million (15.5%) per quarter for 2012 as compared to 2010.

TROPHY DIVISIONThe trophy division posted a substantial increased in turnover to RM28.8 million for 15 monthsended 31 March 2012 as compared to RM18.8 million for 12 months ended 31 December 2010,an increase of RM1.1 million per quarter or 22.6%.

The export of trophy continued its strong growth which started in the second half of year 2010.The consolidation of trophy industry in Europe with the exit of one of the big player has createda huge vacuum and a great opportunity for Emico. The continuous effort and dedication to meetcustomers' requirement of service and quality has enabled Emico to build a large base of distributorsin almost all major European countries. As at to-date, we have supplied to more than 35 countriescovering Asia, Europe, North and South America. Our production capacity has been operating toits maximum capacity and we are planning for another plant which will take about two years tobe in operation.

The local trophy business also recorded a higher sales turnover of RM9.5 million for 15 monthsended 31 March 2012 as compared to RM7.3 million for 12 months ended 31 December 2010. Dueto the constraint of production capacity, the increased in export have adversely affect the supplyfor local trophy. Hence, our local marketing team has made changes to their sales mix with mainconcentration on more value added products and fully assembled trophy. These have resulted ina higher turnover despite a lower quantity of trophy sold.

OEM DIVISIONThe manufacturing of OEM division posted a turnover of RM21.5 million for 15 months ended 31March 2012 as compared to RM16.0 million for 12 months ended 31 December 2010, an increaseof RM0.3 million or 7.5% comparing the average per quarter.

With the signing of new agreement where the customer will absorb the exchange gain or lossarising from the sales transaction and the stable raw material prices during the 15 months periodto 31 March 2012, OEM business posted better result for the current period as compared to previousyear.

Emico Vietnam posted a lower turnover of RM3.3 million for 15 months ended 31 March 2012 ascompared to RM3.5 million for 12 months ended 31 December 2010, a decrease of RM0.2 millionper quarter or 26.7%. The operation in Vietnam posted a net loss of RM1.3 million for 15 monthsended 31 March 2012 as compared to the same amount of RM1.3 million net loss in 2010. Due tothe continued losses which adversely affect the overall Emico Group's results, the Board haddecided to dispose off Emico Vietnam for a cash consideration of RM800,000. The transaction wascompleted on 30 March 2012, therefore, we are expected to achieve a better Group results in 2013.

TRADING - HOUSEHOLD PRODUCTS

Trading of household products posted a higher turnover of RM23.7 million for 15 months ended31 March 2012 and profit before tax of RM0.5 million as compared to RM18.4 million in turnoverand profit before tax of RM0.3 million for the 12 months ended 31 December 2010.

The increase in turnover by RM0.2 million per average quarter or 3.3% for current period ascompared to previous year is mainly attributable to increase in the number of new customers.With the 3 additional customers in United Kingdom as well as Sweden, Emico Asia is able to diversifyits customer risk profile as well as secured better prices for its customer with bigger quantitypurchased.

PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT

The decline in turnover wasmainly attributed to the slower economy in general and the tighter banking guidelines imposedon housing loans especially the financing for purchase of second house which has been reducedto 70%.

The property development division recorded a loss before tax of RM0.2 million for the 15 monthsended 31 March 2012 as compared with a profit before tax of RM0.3 million for the 12 monthsended 31 December 2010.

CHAIRMAN’S STATEMENT

ANNUAL REPORT 2012 19

We foresee that the property development division will remain moderate in 2013 in view of thetightening of credit by the banks and imposition of additional borrowing rules by Bank NegaraMalaysia. However, we are still optimistic in selling the remaining completed unsold units and vacantdevelopment land.

CORPORATE DEVELOPMENT

Emico Group will continue to sell its land bank identified for disposal with market value of approximatelyRM36 million to repay its outstanding loan stocks which stand at RM33 million as at 31 March 2012.As at the date of this report, the following disposals are signed and pending completion date:-

(i) Disposal of 80% shares in PKB-Operasi Tembaga Sdn Bhd which owned a piece of land inLangkawi for a cash consideration of RM10.0 million. Pending fulfilment of all conditionsprecedent, the sale and purchase agreement is expected to be completed before end of 2012.

(ii) Disposal of 2 pieces of freehold land meant for building of petrol station in Sungai Petani fora cash consideration of RM2.3 million. The sale is expected to be completed by 30 October 2012.

(iii) Disposal of 455 units of freehold titles of land bank meant for building of single storey terraceand semi detached houses in Sungai Petani for a cash consideration of RM8.6 million. The saleis expected to be completed on or before 30 November 2012.

PROSPECTS

The management will concentrate its resources to strengthen its core business as explained below:-

(1) Manufacturing - consumer products division.

The trophy division will continue with its expansion plan to cater for its growing export business.We are also mindful that export market is very demanding and competitive in term of pricing,quality and delivery. Therefore, efforts are been made to continuously improve on quality anddelivery system. However, it will be very challenging in view of the ever increasing manufacturingcosts such as raw materials and labour cost. We are always on the lookout for innovative ways tolower the cost including sourcing from overseas countries for certain materials and outsourcingcertain production processes. Efforts are also made to automate certain production processes. Thecoming into effect the Minimum Wages Order 2012 on 1st Jan 2013 of RM900 per month willcreate addition pressure for salary increment not only for the lower rank employees but also forall levels of workers throughout the company. Even though we expect the turnover for trophy tocontinue to increase for next year but the profit margin will be affected.

The OEM business especially for Etac, Sweden will continue to grow at a steady pace of 10-15%increment every year. Our joint cooperation with Etac requires both parties to constantly look intoways for cost saving, improve production efficiency and better management of raw material prices.

CHAIRMAN’S STATEMENT

ANNUAL REPORT 201220

(2) Trading - household products

With the additional new customers in United Kingdom and Sweden, the trading ofhousehold products is expected to increase this year. The challenge for trading businessis to continue to source for good quality products at a lower competitive price. However,meeting delivery deadline is also very important as certain products are seasonal andany delay can be very costly to all parties.

Recently, HSBC bank has given a RM2.0 million Account Receivable (AR) financingfacilities which provides drawdown on 85% of the invoice value. This facility has enabledthe subsidiary company, Emico Asia to expand its business by providing credit termto existing oversea customers as well as securing potential new customers.

(3) Property development

For Sungai Petani project, the management will continue to market the existingcompleted units while embarking on new phases with limited units. We will continueto increase our marketing effort whilst managing our cash flow during this period.

For the remaining land banks, the management will continue to look for potentialbuyers through the agents and advertisement to dispose of its remaining land bankwith the expected sale proceeds to be used to repay the remaining RSLS loan stocksdue on 31 December 2012.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

On behalf of the Board, I wish to thank all bankers, suppliers, customers, business associates and mostimportant of all the management and staff of Emico for the dedication and professionalism thatunderpins everything we do, and for their part in further developing Emico business. We are alsograteful to all our shareholders of the Company and relevant authorities for their continued invaluablesupport and confidence in the Group.

All other components of non-controlling interests shall be measured at theiracquisition-date fair values, unless another measurement basis is required by FRSs. The choiceof measurement basis is made on an combination-by-combination basis. Subsequent toinitial recognition, the carrying amount of non-controlling interests is the amount of thoseinterests at initial recognition plus the non-controlling interests’ hare of subsequent changesin equity.

The Group has applied the revised FRS 3 Business Combinations in accounting for businesscombinations from 1 January 2011 onwards. The change in accounting policy has beenapplied prospectively in accordance with the transitional provisions provided by the Standard.

Changes in the Company owners’ ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in aloss of control are accounted for as equity transactions. In such circumstances, the carryingamounts of the controlling and non-controlling interests are adjusted to reflect the changesin their relative interests in the subsidiary. Any difference between the amount by which thenon-controlling interest is adjusted and the fair value of consideration paid or received isrecognised directly in equity and attributed to owners of the parent.

4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont’d)

4.2 Basis of consolidation (cont’d)

When the Group loses control of a subsidiary, the profit or loss on disposal is calculated asthe difference between:

(i) the aggregate of the fair value of the consideration received and the fair value of anyretained interest; and

(ii) the previous carrying amount of the assets (including goodwill), and liabilities of thesubsidiary and any non-controlling interests.

Amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in relation to thesubsidiary are accounted for (i.e. reclassified to profit or loss or transferred directly toretained earnings) in the same manner as would be required if the relevant assets orliabilities were disposed of. The fair value of any investments retained in the formersubsidiary at the date when control is lost is regarded as the fair value on initial recognitionfor subsequent accounting under FRS 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition andMeasurement or, where applicable, the cost on initial recognition of an investment inassociate or jointly controlled entity.

4.3 Business combinations

Business combinations from 1 January 2011 onwards

Business combinations are accounted for by applying the acquisition method of accounting.

Identifiable assets acquired, liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a businesscombination are measured at their fair value at the acquisition date, except that:

(a) deferred tax assets or liabilities and liabilities or assets related to employee benefitarrangements are recognised and measured in accordance with FRS 112 Income Taxesand FRS 119 Employee Benefits respectively;

(b) liabilities or equity instruments related to share-based payment transactions of theacquiree or the replacement by the Group of an acquiree’s share-based paymenttransactions are measured in accordance with FRS 2 Share-based Payment at the acquisitiondate; and

(c) assets (or disposal groups) that are classified as held for sale in accordance with FRS 5Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations are measured in accordancewith that Standard.

Acquisition-related costs are recognised as expenses in the periods in which the costs areincurred and the service are received.

Any contingent consideration payable is recognised at fair value at the acquisition date.Measurement period adjustments to contingent consideration are dealt with as follows:

(a) If the contingent consideration is classified as equity, it is not remeasured and settlementis accounted for within equity.

(b) Subsequent changes to contingent consideration classified as an asset or liability thatis a financial instrument within the scope of FRS 139 are recognised either in profit orloss or in other comprehensive income in accordance with FRS 139. All other subsequentchanges are recognised in profit or loss.

4.3 Business combinations (cont’d)

In a business combination achieved in stages, previously held equity interests in the acquireeare re-measured to fair value at the acquisition date and any corresponding gain or loss isrecognised in profit or loss.

The Group elects for each individual business combination, whether non-controlling interestin the acquiree (if any) is recognised on the acquisition date at fair value, or at the non-controlling interest’s proportionate share of the acquiree net identifiable assets.

Any excess of the sum of the fair value of the consideration transferred in the businesscombination, the amount of non-controlling interest in the acquiree (if any), and the fairvalue of the Group’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree (if any), over the net fairvalue of the acquiree’s identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill in the statementof financial position. The accounting policy for goodwill is set out in Note 4.8. In instanceswhere the latter amount exceeds the former, the excess is recognised as a gain on bargainpurchase in profit or loss on the acquisition date.

Business combinations before 1 January 2011

Under the purchase method of accounting, the cost of business combination is measuredat the aggregate of fair values at the date of exchange, of assets given, liabilities incurred orassumed, and equity instruments issued plus any costs directly attributable to the businesscombination.

At the acquisition date, the cost of business combination is allocated to identifiable assetsacquired, liabilities assumed and contingent liabilities in the business combination whichare measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. The excess of the cost ofbusiness combination over the Group’s interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets,liabilities and contingent liabilities is recognised as goodwill (see Note 4.8) to the financialstatements on goodwill. If the cost of business combination is less than the interest in thenet fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities, the Group will:

(a) reassess the identification and measurement of the acquiree’s identifiable assets, liabilitiesand contingent liabilities and the measurement of the cost of the business combination; and

(b) recognise immediately in profit or loss any excess remaining after that reassessment.

When a business combination includes more than one exchange transaction, any adjustmentto the fair values of the subsidiary’s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilitiesrelating to previously held interests of the Group is accounted for as a revaluation.

4.4 Property, plant and equipment and depreciation

All items of property, plant and equipment are initially measured at cost. Cost includesexpenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separateasset, as appropriate, only when the cost is incurred and it is probable that the future economicbenefits associated with the asset will flow to the Group and the cost of the asset can bemeasured reliably. The carrying amount of parts that are replaced is derecognised. The costsof the day-to-day servicing of property, plant and equipment are recognised in profit or lossas incurred. Cost also comprises the initial estimate of dismantling and removing the assetand restoring the site on which it is located for which the Group is obligated to incur whenthe asset is acquired, if applicable.

4.4 Property, plant and equipment and depreciation (cont’d)

Each part of an item of property, plant and equipment with a cost that is significant in relationto the total cost of the asset and which has different useful life, is depreciated separately.

After initial recognition, property, plant and equipment except for long term leasehold andbuildings are stated at cost less any accumulated depreciation and any accumulatedimpairment losses. The leasehold land and buildings are revalued with sufficient regularityto ensure that the carrying amount does not differ materially from that which would bedetermined using fair value at the end of the reporting period. The surplus arising from suchrevaluations is credited to shareholders’ equity as a revaluation reserve, net of deferred tax,if any, and any subsequent deficit is offset against such surplus to the extent of a previousincrease for the same property. In all other cases, the deficit will be charged to profit or loss. For a revaluation increase subsequent to a revaluation deficit of the same asset, the surplusis recognised as income to the extent that it reverses the deficit previously recognised as anexpense with the balance of increase credited to revaluation reserve.

Depreciation is calculated to write off the cost of the assets to their residual values on astraight line basis over their estimated useful lives. The principal annual depreciation periodand rates are as follows:

Buildings 2% - 10%Long term leasehold land 55 yearsPlant and machinery 10% - 20%Moulds 10% & 20%Motor vehicles 10% - 33%Office equipment, furniture and fittings 8% - 20%Tools, implements and equipment 10% & 20%Electrical installation and renovation 10% & 20%

At the end of each reporting period, the carrying amount of an item of property, plant andequipment is assessed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicatethat its carrying amount may not be recoverable. A write down is made if the carrying amountexceeds the recoverable amount (see Note 4.11 to the financial statements on impairmentof non-financial assets).

The residual values, useful lives and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of eachreporting period to ensure that the amount, method and period of depreciation are consistentwith previous estimates and the expected pattern of consumption of the future economicbenefits embodied in the items of property, plant and equipment. If expectations differ fromprevious estimates, the changes are accounted for as a change in an accounting estimate.

The carrying amount of an item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised on disposalor when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. The differencebetween the net disposal proceeds, if any, and the carrying amount is included in profit orloss and the revaluation surplus related to those assets, if any, is transferred directly to retainedprofits.

4.5 Investment properties

Investment properties are properties which are owned to earn rental income or for capitalappreciation or for both, but not for sale in the ordinary course of business, use in theproduction or supply of goods or services or for administrative purposes. These include landheld for a currently undetermined future use, if any.

4.5 Investment properties (cont’d)

Investment properties are stated at cost less any accumulated depreciation and anyaccumulated impairment losses, consistent with the accounting policy for property, plantand equipment as stated in accounting policy Note 4.4.

Depreciation is charged to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated usefullives of 50 years for buildings. Freehold land is not depreciated.

Transfers between investment property, property, plant and equipment and inventories donot change the carrying amount and the cost of the property transferred

An investment property is derecognised on its disposal, or when it is permanently withdrawnfrom use and no future economic benefits are expected from its disposal. The differencebetween the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount is recognised in profit or lossin the period in which the item is derecognised.

4.6 Hire purchase

(a) Hire purchase

Assets acquired under hire purchase which transfer substantially all the risks and rewardsof ownership to the Group are recognised initially at amounts equal to the fair value ofthe hire purchased assets or, if lower, the present value of minimum hire purchasepayments, each determined at the inception of the hire purchase. The discount rateused in calculating the present value of the minimum hire purchase payments is theinterest rate implicit in the hire purchase, if this is practicable to determine; if not, theGroup’s incremental borrowing rate is used. Any initial direct costs incurred by the Groupare added to the amount recognised as an asset. The assets are capitalised as property,plant and equipment and the corresponding obligations are treated as liabilities. Theproperty, plant and equipment capitalised are depreciated on the same basis as ownedassets.

The minimum hire purchase payments are apportioned between the finance chargesand the reduction of the outstanding liability. The finance charges are recognised inprofit or loss over the period of the hire purchase term so as to produce a constantperiodic rate of interest on the remaining hire purchase liabilities.

(b) Operating leases

A lease is classified as an operating lease if it does not transfer substantially all the risksand rewards incidental to ownership.

Lease payments under operating leases are recognised as an expense on a straight-linebasis over the lease term.

4.7 Investments

(a) Subsidiaries

A subsidiary is an entity in which the Group and the Company have power to controlthe financial and operating policies so as to obtain benefits from its activities. Theexistence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertibleare considered when assessing whether the Group has such power over another entity.

4.7 Investments (cont’d)

An investment in subsidiary, which is eliminated on consolidation, is stated in theCompany’s separate financial statements at cost. Investments accounted for at cost shallbe accounted for in accordance with FRS 5 Non-current Assets Held for Sale andDiscontinued Operations when they are classified as held for sale (or included in adisposal group that is classified as held for sale) in accordance with FRS 5.

When control of a subsidiary is lost as a result of a transaction, event or other circumstance,the Group would derecognise all assets, liabilities and non-controlling interests at theircarrying amount and to recognise the fair value of the consideration received. Anyretained interest in the former subsidiary is recognised at its fair value at the date controlis lost. The resulting difference is recognised as a gain or loss in profit or loss.

(b) Associates

An associate is an entity over which the Group and the Company have significantinfluence and that is neither a subsidiary nor an interest in a joint venture. Significantinfluence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions ofthe investee but is not control or joint control over those policies.

In the Company’s separate financial statements, an investment in associate is stated atcost less impairment losses.

An investment in associate is accounted for in the consolidated financial statementsusing the equity method of accounting. The investment in associate in the consolidatedstatement of financial position is initially recognised at cost and adjusted thereafter forthe post acquisition change in the Group’s share of net assets of the investments.

The interest in the associate is the carrying amount of the investment in the associateunder the equity method together with any long term interest that, in substance, formpart of the Group’s net investment in the associate.

The Group’s share of the profit or loss of the associate during the financial year is includedin the consolidated financial statements, after adjustments to align the accountingpolicies with those of the Group, from the date that significant influence commencesuntil the date that significant influence ceases. Distributions received from the associatereduce the carrying amount of the investment. Adjustments to the carrying amountmay also be necessary for changes in the Group’s proportionate interest in the associatearising from changes in the associate’s equity that have not been recognised in theassociate’s profit or loss. Such changes include those arising from the revaluation ofproperty, plant and equipment and from foreign exchange translation differences. TheGroup’s share of those changes is recognised directly in equity of the Group.

Unrealised gains and losses on transactions between the Group and the associate areeliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest in the associate.

4.7 Investments (cont’d)

When the Group’s share of losses in the associate equals to or exceeds its interest in theassociate, the carrying amount of that interest is reduced to nil and the Group does notrecognise further losses unless it has incurred legal or constructive obligations or madepayments on its behalf.

The most recent available financial statements of the associate are used by the Groupin applying the equity method. When the end of the reporting periods of the financialstatements are not coterminous, the share of results is arrived at using the latest auditedfinancial statements for which the difference at the end of the reporting periods is nomore than three (3) months. Adjustments are made for the effects of any significanttransactions or events that occur between the intervening periods.

Upon disposal of an investment in associate, the difference between the net disposalproceeds and its carrying amount is included in profit or loss.

4.8 Goodwill

Goodwill recognised in a business combination is an asset at the acquisition date and isinitially measured at cost being the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, theamount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the fair value of the acquirer’spreviously held equity interest (if any) in the entity over net of the acquisition-date amountsof the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. If, after reassessment, theGroup’s interest in the fair value of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets exceeds the sum ofthe consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquireeand the fair value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree (if any),the excess is recognised immediately in profit or loss as a bargain purchase gain.

After initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses,if any. Goodwill is not amortised but instead tested for impairment annually or more frequentlyif events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may be impaired.Gains and losses on the disposal of an entity include the carrying amount of goodwill relatingto the entity sold.

4.9 Property development activities

(a) Land held for property development

Land held for property development is stated at cost less impairment losses, if any. Suchland is classified as non-current asset when no significant development work has beencarried out or where development activities are not expected to be completed withinthe normal operating cycle.

Cost associated with the acquisition of land includes the purchase price of the land,professional fees, stamp duties, commissions, conversion fees and other relevant levies

Land held for property development is reclassified as property development costs atthe point when development activities have commenced and where it can bedemonstrated that the development activities can be completed within the normaloperating cycle.

4.9 Property development activities (cont’d)

(b) Property development costs

Property development costs comprise all cost that are directly attributable to thedevelopment activities or that can be allocated on a reasonable basis to such activities. They comprise the cost of land under development, construction costs and other relateddevelopment costs common to the whole project including professional fees, stampduties, commissions, conversion fees and other relevant levies as well as borrowingcosts.

Property development costs not recognised as an expense are recognised as an assetmeasured at the lower of cost and net realisable value.

When revenue recognised in profit or loss exceeds progress billings to purchasers, thebalance is classified as accrued billings under current assets. When progress billingsexceed revenue recognised in profit or loss, the balance is classified as progress billingsunder current liabilities.

4.10 Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value.

Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out formula. The cost of raw materials comprisesall costs of purchase plus the cost of bringing the inventories to their present location andcondition. The cost of work-in-progress and finished goods includes the cost of raw materials,direct labour, other direct cost and a proportion of production overheads based on normaloperating capacity of the production facilities. The cost of completed properties held forsale comprises cost associated with the acquisition of land, direct costs and appropriateproportions of common costs.

Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less theestimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

4.11 Impairment of non-financial assets

The carrying amount of assets, except for financial assets (excluding investments in subsidiariesand associates), inventories, property development costs, deferred tax assets and non-currentassets (or disposal groups) held for sale, are reviewed at the end of each reporting period todetermine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, theasset’s recoverable amount is estimated.

Goodwill and intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life are tested annually forimpairment or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that thegoodwill or intangible asset might be impaired.

The recoverable amount of an asset is estimated for an individual asset. Where it is notpossible to estimate the recoverable amount of the individual asset, the impairment test iscarried out on the cash generating unit (”CGU”) to which the asset belongs. Goodwill acquiredin a business combination is from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the Group’s CGUor groups of CGU that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination givingrise to the goodwill irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the acquiree areassigned to those units or groups of units.

4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont’d)

4.11 Impairment of non-financial assets (cont’d)

Goodwill acquired in a business combination shall be tested for impairment as part of theimpairment testing of CGU to which it relates. The CGU to which goodwill is allocated shallrepresent the lowest level within the Group at which the goodwill is monitored for internalmanagement purposes and not larger than an operating segment determined in accordancewith FRS 8.

The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is the higher of its fair value less cost to sell andits value in use.

In estimating the value in use, the estimated future cash inflows and outflows to be derivedfrom continuing use of the asset and from its ultimate disposal are discounted to their presentvalue using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time valueof money and the risks specific to the asset for which the future cash flow estimates havenot been adjusted. An impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss when the carryingamount of the asset or the CGU, including the goodwill or intangible asset, exceeds therecoverable amount of the asset or the CGU. The total impairment loss is allocated, first, toreduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the CGU and then to the otherassets of the CGU on a pro-rata basis of the carrying amount of each asset in the CGU.

The impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately except for the impairmenton a revalued asset where the impairment loss is recognised directly against the revaluationreserve to the extent of the surplus credited from the previous revaluation for the same assetwith the excess of the impairment loss charged to profit or loss.

An impairment loss on goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods. An impairment lossfor other assets is reversed if, and only if, there has been a change in the estimates used todetermine the assets’ recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised.

An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does notexceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation oramortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.

Such reversals are recognised as income immediately in profit or loss except for the reversalof an impairment loss on a revalued asset where the reversal of the impairment loss is treatedas a revaluation increase and credited to the revaluation reserve account of the same asset.However, to the extent that an impairment loss in the same revalued asset was previouslyrecognised in profit or loss, a reversal of that impairment loss is also recognised in profit orloss.

4.12 Financial instruments

A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one enterprise anda financial liability or equity instrument of another enterprise.

A financial asset is any asset that is cash, an equity instrument of another enterprise, acontractual right to receive cash or another financial asset from another enterprise, or acontractual right to exchange financial assets or financial liabilities with another enterpriseunder conditions that are potentially favourable to the Group.

4.12 Financial instruments (cont’d)

A financial liability is any liability that is a contractual obligation to deliver cash or anotherfinancial asset to another enterprise, or a contractual obligation to exchange financial assetsor financial liabilities with another enterprise under conditions that are potentially unfavourableto the Group.

Financial instruments are recognised on the statement of financial position when the Grouphas become a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. At initial recognition,a financial instrument is recognised at fair value plus, in the case of a financial instrumentnot at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to theacquisition or issuance of the financial instrument.

An embedded derivative is separated from the host contract and accounted for as a derivativeif, and only if the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative is not closelyrelated to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, a separate instrumentwith the same terms as the embedded derivative meets the definition of a derivative, andthe hybrid instrument is not measured at fair value through profit or loss.

(a) Financial assets

A financial asset is classified into the following four categories after initial recognitionfor the purpose of subsequent measurement:

(i) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss comprise financial assets that areheld for trading (i.e. financial assets acquired principally for the purpose of resalein the near term), derivatives (both, freestanding and embedded) and financialassets that were specifically designated into this classification upon initial recognition.

Subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets classified as at fair value throughprofit or loss are measured at fair value. Any gains or losses arising from changesin the fair value of financial assets classified as at fair value through profit or loss arerecognised in profit or loss. Net gains or losses on financial assets classified as atfair value through profit or loss exclude foreign exchange gains and losses, interestand dividend income. Such income is recognised separately in profit or loss ascomponents of other income or other operating losses.

However, derivatives that is linked to and must be settled by delivery of unquotedequity instruments that do not have a quoted market price in an active market arerecognised at cost.

(ii) Held-to-maturity investments

Financial assets classified as held-to-maturity comprise non-derivative financialassets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity that the Group hasthe positive intention and ability to hold to maturity.

Subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets classified as held-to-maturity aremeasured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Gains or losses onfinancial assets classified as held-to-maturity are recognised in profit or loss whenthe financial assets are derecognised or impaired, and through the amortisationprocess.

(iii) Loans and receivables

Financial assets classified as loans and receivables comprise non-derivative financialassets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market.

Subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets classified as loans and receivablesare measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Gains or losseson financial assets classified as loans and receivables are recognised in profit or losswhen the financial assets are derecognised or impaired, and through the amortisationprocess.

(iv) Available-for-sale financial assets

Financial assets classified as available-for-sale comprise non-derivative financialassets that are designated as available for sale or are not classified as loans andreceivables, held-to-maturity investments or financial assets at fair value throughprofit or loss.

Subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets classified as available-for-sale aremeasured at fair value. Any gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value offinancial assets classified as available-for-sale are recognised directly in othercomprehensive income, except for impairment losses and foreign exchange gainsand losses, until the financial asset is derecognised, at which time the cumulativegains or losses previously recognised in other comprehensive income are recognisedin profit or loss. However, interest calculated using the effective interest methodis recognised in profit or loss whilst dividends on available-for-sale equity instrumentsare recognised in profit or loss when the Group’s right to receive payment isestablished.

Cash and cash equivalents include cash and bank balances, bank overdrafts, depositsand other short term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three (3)months or less, which are readily convertible to cash and are subject to insignificant riskof changes in value.

A financial asset is derecognised when the contractual right to receive cash flows fromthe financial asset has expired. On derecognition of a financial asset in its entirety, thedifference between the carrying amount and the sum of consideration received (includingany new asset obtained less any new liability assumed) and any cumulative gain or lossthat had been recognised directly in other comprehensive income shall be recognisedin profit or loss.

A regular way purchase or sale is a purchase or sale of a financial asset under a contractwhose terms require delivery of the asset within the time frame established generallyby regulation or marketplace convention. A regular way purchase or sale of financialassets shall be recognised and derecognised, as applicable, using trade date accounting.

(b) Financial liabilities

Financial instruments are classified as liabilities or equity in accordance with the substanceof the contractual arrangement. A financial liability is classified into the following twocategories after initial recognition for the purpose of subsequent measurement:

(i) Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss comprise financial liabilitiesthat are held for trading, derivatives (both, freestanding and embedded) and financialliabilities that were specifically designated into this classification upon initialrecognition.

Subsequent to initial recognition, financial liabilities classified as at fair value throughprofit or loss are measured at fair value. Any gains or losses arising from changesin the fair value of financial liabilities classified as at fair value through profit or lossare recognised in profit or loss. Net gains or losses on financial liabilities classifiedas at fair value through profit or loss exclude foreign exchange gains and losses,interest and dividend income. Such income is recognised separately in profit or lossas components of other income or other operating losses.

(ii) Other financial liabilities

Financial liabilities classified as other financial liabilities comprise non-derivativefinancial liabilities that are neither held for trading nor initially designated as at fairvalue through profit or loss.

Subsequent to initial recognition, other financial liabilities are measured at amortisedcost using the effective interest method. Gains or losses on other financial liabilitiesare recognised in profit or loss when the financial liabilities are derecognised andthrough the amortisation process.

A financial liability is derecognised when, and only when, it is extinguished, i.e. whenthe obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires. An exchangebetween an existing borrower and lender of debt instruments with substantially differentterms are accounted for as an extinguishment of the original financial liability and therecognition of a new financial liability. Similarly, a substantial modification of the termsof an existing financial liability is accounted for as an extinguishment of the originalfinancial liability and the recognition of a new financial liability.

The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability extinguished ortransferred to another party and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assetstransferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss.

A financial guarantee contract is a contract that requires the issuer to make specifiedpayments to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails tomake payment when due in accordance with the original or modified terms of a debtinstrument.

The Group designates corporate guarantees given to banks for credit facilities grantedto subsidiaries as insurance contracts as defined in FRS 4 Insurance Contracts. The Grouprecognises these insurance contracts as recognised insurance liabilities when there isa present obligation, legal or constructive, as a result of a past event, when it is probablethat an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle theobligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

At the end of every reporting period, the Group shall assess whether its recognisedinsurance liabilities are adequate, using current estimates of future cash flows under itsinsurance contracts. If this assessment shows that the carrying amount of the insuranceliabilities is inadequate, the entire deficiency shall be recognised in profit or loss.

Recognised insurance liabilities are only removed from the statement of financial positionwhen, and only when, it is extinguished via a discharge, cancellation or expiration.

(c) Equity

An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets ofthe Group and the Company after deducting all of its liabilities. Ordinary shares areclassified as equity instruments.

Ordinary shares are recorded at the nominal value and proceeds in excess of the nominalvalue of shares issued, if any, are accounted for as share premium. Both ordinary sharesand share premium are classified as equity. Transaction costs of an equity transactionare accounted for as a deduction from equity, net of any related income tax benefit.Otherwise, they are charged to profit or loss.

Interim dividends to shareholders are recognised in equity in the period in which theyare declared. Final dividends are recognised upon the approval of shareholders in ageneral meeting.

The Group measures a liability to distribute non-cash assets as a dividend to the ownersof the Company at the fair value of the assets to be distributed. The carrying amount ofthe dividend is remeasured at each reporting date and at the settlement date, with anychanges recognised directly in equity as adjustments to the amount of the distribution.On settlement of the transaction, the Group recognises the difference, if any, betweenthe carrying amount of the assets distributed and the carrying amount of the liabilityin profit or loss.

If the Company reacquires its own equity instruments, the consideration paid, includingany attributable transaction costs is deducted from equity as treasury shares until theyare cancelled. No gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss on the purchase, sale, issueor cancellation of the Company’s own equity instruments. Where such shares are issuedby resale, the difference between the sales consideration and the carrying amount isshown as a movement in equity.

4.13 Impairment of financial assets

The Group assesses whether there is any objective evidence that a financial asset is impairedat the end of each reporting period.

Loans and receivables

The Group collectively considers factors such as the probability of bankruptcy or significantfinancial difficulties of the receivable and default or significant delay in payments to determinewhether there is objective evidence that an impairment loss on loans and receivables hasoccurred. Other objective evidence of impairment include historical collection ratesdetermined on an individual basis and observable changes in national or local economicconditions that are directly correlated with the historical default rates of receivables.

If any such objective evidence exists, the amount of impairment loss is measured as thedifference between the financial asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimatedfuture cash flows discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate. Theimpairment loss is recognised in profit or loss.

The carrying amount of loans and receivables is reduced through the use of an allowanceaccount.

If in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and it objectivelyrelates to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognisedimpairment loss is reversed to the extent that the carrying amount of the asset does notexceed its amortised cost at the reversal date. The amount of impairment reversed isrecognised in profit or loss.

4.14 Borrowing costs

All borrowing cost is recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.

4.15 Provisions

Provisions are recognised when there is a present obligation, legal or constructive, as a resultof a past event, when it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economicbenefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of theamount of the obligation.

When the effect of the time value of money is material, the amount of a provision will bediscounted to its present value at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments ofthe time value of money and the risks specific to the liability.

Provisions are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and adjusted to reflect thecurrent best estimate. If it is no longer probable that an outflow of resources embodyingeconomic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, the provision will be reversed.

Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses. If the Group has a contract that isonerous, the present obligation under the contract shall be recognised and measured as aprovision.

4.16 Income taxes

Taxes in the income statement comprise current tax and deferred tax.

(a) Current tax

Current tax is the amount of income taxes payable or receivable in respect of the taxableprofit or loss for a period.

Current tax for the current and prior periods is measured at the amount expected to berecovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used tocompute the amount are those that have been enacted or substantively enacted by theend of the reporting period.

(b) Deferred tax

Deferred tax is recognised in full using the liability method on temporary differencesarising between the carrying amount of an asset or liability in the statement of financialposition and its tax base.

Deferred tax is recognised for all temporary differences, unless the deferred tax arisesfrom goodwill or the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction which isnot a business combination and at the time of transaction, affects neither accountingprofit nor taxable profit.

A deferred tax asset is recognised only to the extent that it is probable that taxable profitswill be available against which the deductible temporary differences, unused tax lossesand unused tax credits can be utilised. The carrying amount of a deferred tax asset isreviewed at the end of each reporting period. If it is no longer probable that sufficienttaxable profits will be available to allow the benefit of part or all of that deferred taxasset to be utilised, the carrying amount of the deferred tax asset will be reducedaccordingly. When it becomes probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available,such reductions will be reversed to the extent of the taxable profits.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right toset off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when the deferred incometaxes relate to the same taxation authority on either:

(i) either the same taxable entity; or

(ii) different taxable entities which intend either to settle current tax liabilities and assetson a net basis, or to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously, ineach future period in which significant amounts of deferred tax liabilities or assetsare expected to be settled or recovered.

Deferred tax will be recognised as income or expense and included in the profit or lossfor the period unless the tax relates to items that are credited or charged, in the sameor a different period, directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax will be chargedor credited directly to equity.

4.16 Income taxes (cont’d)

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to applyto the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates and tax lawsthat have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting period.

4.17 Contingent liabilities and contingent assets

A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events whose existencewill be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain futureevents beyond the control of the Group or a present obligation that is not recognised becauseit is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation. Acontingent liability also arises in extremely rare cases where there is a liability that cannotbe recognised because it cannot be measured reliably. The Group does not recognise acontingent liability but discloses its existence in the financial statements.

A contingent asset is a possible asset that arises from past events whose existence will beconfirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future eventsbeyond the control of the Group. The Group does not recognise contingent assets butdisclose its existence where inflows of economic benefits are probable, but not virtuallycertain.

In the acquisition of subsidiaries by the Group under business combinations, contingentliabilities assumed are measured initially at their fair value at the acquisition date, irrespectiveof the extent of any non-controlling interest.

4.18 Employee benefits

(a) Short term employee benefits

Wages, salaries, social security contributions, paid annual leave, paid sick leave, bonusesand non-monetary benefits are recognised as an expense in the financial year whenemployees have rendered their services to the Group.

Short term accumulating compensated absences such as paid annual leave are recognisedas an expense when employees render services that increase their entitlement to futurecompensated absences. Short term non-accumulating compensated absences such assick leave are recognised when the absences occur.

Bonuses are recognised as an expense when there is a present, legal or constructiveobligation to make such payments, as a result of past events and when a reliable estimatecan be made of the amount of the obligation.

(b) Defined contribution plans

The Company and its subsidiaries make contributions to a statutory provident fund. Thecontributions are recognised as a liability after deducting any contribution already paidand as an expense in the period in which the employees render their services.

4.19 Foreign currencies

(a) Functional and presentation currency

Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group’s entities are measuredusing the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates(’the functional currency’). The consolidated financial statements are presented in RinggitMalaysia, which is the Company’s functional and presentation currency.

(b) Foreign currency translations and balances

Transactions in foreign currencies are converted into Ringgit Malaysia at rates of exchangeruling at the transaction dates. Monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currencies atthe end of the reporting period are translated into Ringgit Malaysia at rates of exchangeruling at that date. All exchange differences arising from the settlement of foreigncurrency transactions and from the translation of foreign currency monetary assets andliabilities are included in profit or loss in the period in which they arise. Non-monetaryitems initially denominated in foreign currencies, which are carried at historical cost aretranslated using the historical rate as of the date of acquisition, and non-monetary itemswhich are carried at fair value are translated using the exchange rate that existed whenthe values were determined for presentation currency purposes.

(c) Foreign operations

Financial statements of foreign operations are translated at end of the reporting periodexchange rates with respect to their assets and liabilities, and at exchange rates at thedates of the transactions with respect to the statement of comprehensive income. Allresulting translation differences are recognised as a separate component of equity

In the consolidated financial statements, exchange differences arising from the translationof net investment in foreign operations are taken to equity. When a foreign operationis partially disposed off or sold, exchange differences that were recorded in equity arerecognised in profit or loss as part of the gain or loss on disposal.

Exchange differences arising on a monetary item that forms part of the net investmentof the Company in a foreign operation shall be recognised in profit or loss in the separatefinancial statements of the Company or the foreign operation, as appropriate. In theconsolidated financial statements, such exchange differences shall be recognised initiallyas a separate component of equity and recognised in profit or loss upon disposal of thenet investment

Goodwill and fair value adjustments to the assets and liabilities arising from the acquisitionof a foreign operation are treated as assets and liabilities of the acquired entity andtranslated at the exchange rate ruling at the end of the reporting period.

4.20 Revenue recognition

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable net ofdiscounts and rebates.

Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits associatedwith the transaction will flow to the Group, and the amount of revenue and the cost incurredor to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be reliably measured and specific recognitioncriteria have been met for each of the Group’s activities as follows:

(a) Sale of goods

Revenue from sale of goods is recognised when significant risk and rewards of ownershipof the goods has been transferred to the customer and where the Group retains neithercontinuing managerial involvement over the goods, which coincides with the deliveryof goods and acceptance by customers.

(b) Services

Revenue in respect of the rendering of services is recognised when the stage of completionat the end of the reporting period and the cost incurred can be reliably measured. Thestage of completion is determined by the services performed to date as a percentageof total services to be performed.

(c) Property development

Property development revenue is recognised in respect of all development units thathave been sold. Revenue recognition commences when the sale of the developmentunit is effected, upon the commencement of development and construction activitiesand when the financial outcome can be reliably estimated. The attributable portion ofproperty development cost is recognised as an expense in the period in which the relatedrevenue is recognised. The amount of such revenue and expenses recognised isdetermined by reference to the stage of completion of development activity at the endof the reporting period. The stage of completion is measured by reference to theproportion that property development costs incurred for work performed to date bearto the estimated total property development cost.

When the financial outcome of a development activity cannot be reliably estimated, theproperty development revenue is recognised only to the extent of property developmentcosts incurred that is probable to be recoverable and the property development costson the development units sold are recognised as an expense in the period in which theyare incurred.

Any expected loss on a development project is recognised as an expense immediately,including costs to be incurred over the defects liability period.

(d) Interest income

Interest income is recognised as it accrues, using the effective interest method.

5.2 New Malaysian Financial Reporting Standards (’MFRS’) that have beenissued, but not yet effective and not yet adopted, for annual periods beginningon or after 1 January 2012

On 19 November 2011, the Malaysian Accounting Standards Board (’MASB’) announced theissuance of the new MFRS framework that is applicable to entities other than private entities.

The Group is expected to apply the MFRS framework for the financial year ending 31 March2013.

This would result in the Group preparing an opening MFRS statement of financial positionas at 1 January 2011 which adjusts for differences between the classification and measurementbases in the existing FRS framework versus that in the new MFRS framework. This would alsoresult in a restatement of the annual and quarterly financial performance for the financialperiod from 1 January 2011 to 31 March 2012 in accordance with MFRS which would formthe MFRS comparatives for the annual and quarterly financial performance for the financialyear ending 31 March 2013.

1 JANUARY 2011 TO 31 MARCH 2012 (cont’d)

6. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS

6.1 Changes in estimates

There are no significant changes in accounting estimates during the financial period.

6.2 Critical judgement

The following are judgements made by management in the process of applying the Group’saccounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in thefinancial statements.

(a) Non-current assets and disposal group held for sale

Certain non-current assets, current assets and current liabilities have been classified asnon-current assets and disposal group held for sale as the management has committedto a plan to sell the assets and liabilities as at the end of the reporting period. Barringany unforeseen circumstances, the Group expects that the sale of the assets and liabilitiesto be completed within the next twelve (12) months.

(b) Contingent liabilities

The determination of treatment of contingent liabilities is based on management's viewof the expected outcome of the contingencies for matters in the ordinary course of thebusiness.

6.3 Key sources of estimation uncertainty

The following are key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimationuncertainty at the end of the reporting period that have a significant risk of causing a materialadjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.

(a) Depreciation of plant and machinery

The cost of plant and machinery is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the assets'useful lives. The estimated useful lives applied by the Group as disclosed in Note 4.4 tothe financial statements reflects the Directors' estimate of the period that the Groupexpects to derive future economic benefits from the use of the Group's plant andmachinery. These are common life expectancies applied in various business segmentsof the Group. Changes in the expected level of usage and technological developmentscould impact the economic useful lives and the residual values of these assets, andtherefore future depreciation charges could be revised.

(b) Deferred tax assets

Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary timing differences to theextent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which the deductibletemporary timing differences can be utilised. Significant management judgement isrequired to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, basedupon the likely timing and level of future taxable profits together with future tax planningstrategies.

6.3 Key sources of estimation uncertainty (cont’d)

(c) Impairment of receivables

The Group makes impairment of receivables based on an assessment of the recoverabilityof receivables. Impairment is applied to receivables where events or changes incircumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Themanagement specifically analyses historical bad debt, customer concentration, customercreditworthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment termswhen making a judgement to evaluate the adequacy of impairment of receivables.Where expectations differ from the original estimates, the differences will impact thecarrying amount of receivables.

(d) Property development

The Company recognises property development revenue and expenses in profit or lossby using the stage of completion method. The stage of completion is determined bythe proportion that the property development costs incurred for work performed todate bear to the estimated total property development costs.

Significant judgement is required in determining the stage of completion, the extent oftotal property development costs incurred, the estimated total property developmentrevenue and costs, as well as the recoverability of the development projects. In makingthe judgement, the Company evaluated based on the past experience and by relyingon the work of specialists.

(e) Fair values of borrowings

The fair values of borrowings are estimated by discounting future contractual cash flowsat the current market interest rates available to the Group for similar financial instruments.It is assumed that the effective interest rates approximate the current market interestrates available to the Group based on its size and its business risk.

(f) Impairment of goodwill on consolidation and investments in subsidiaries

The Group determines whether goodwill on consolidation is impaired at least on anannual basis. This requires an estimation of the recoverable amount of the subsidiariesto which goodwill is allocated.

The Company has also reviewed the carrying amounts of its investments in subsidiariesand when there are any indications of impairment, a similar impairment test has beenperformed, based on the expected discounted cash flow of these subsidiaries. Thecarrying amount of the investments in subsidiaries of the Company are as stated on thestatement of financial position.

Further details are disclosed in Notes 9 and 10 to the financial statements respectively.

9. GOODWILL (cont’d)

The Group tests goodwill annually for impairment or more frequently if there are indications thatgoodwill might be impaired.

(a) Key assumptions used

The recoverable amount of a cash generating unit ("CGU") is determined based on fair valueless costs to sell. The fair value is based on the consideration to be received by the CGU uponthe completion of disposal of an indirect subsidiary.

(b) Sensitivity analysis

With regard to the assessment of fair value less cost to sell, management believes that noreasonably possible change in any of the above key assumptions would cause the recoverableamounts of the units to be materially below their carrying amounts.

(d) Methods and assumptions used to estimate fair value

The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities are determined as follows:

(i) Financial instruments that are not carried at fair value and whose carrying amounts area reasonable approximation of fair value

The carrying amounts of financial assets and liabilities, such as trade and other receivables,trade and other payables and borrowings, are reasonable approximation of fair value,either due to their short-term nature or that they are floating rate instruments that arere-priced to market interest rates on or near the end of the reporting period.

The carrying amounts of the current position of borrowings are reasonable approximationsof fair values due to the significant impact of discounting.

(ii) Hire purchase

The fair value of this financial instrument is estimated by discounting expected futurecash flows at market incremental lending rate for similar types of lending, borrowingsor leasing arrangements at the end of the reporting period.

(iii) Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of the Group’s financialinstruments will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates.

The Group's income and operating cash flows are substantially independent of changes inmarket interest rates. Interest rate exposure arises from the Group's borrowings is managedthrough the use of fixed and floating rates debts. The Group monitors the interest rates onborrowings closely to ensure that the borrowings are maintained at favourable rates. TheGroup does not use derivative financial instruments to hedge this risk.

Sensitivity analysis for interest rate risk

As at 31 March 2012, if interest rates at the date had been 50 basis points lower with all othervariables held constant, post-tax loss for the financial period would have been RM79,462(2010: RM79,293) lower, arising mainly as a result of lower interest expense on variableborrowings. If interest rates had been 50 basis points higher, with all other variables heldconstant, post-tax loss would have been RM79,462 (2010: RM79,293) higher, arising mainlyas a result of higher interest expense on variable borrowings. Profit is more sensitive tointerest rate decreases than increases because of borrowings with capped interest rates. Thesensitivity is higher in 2012 than in 2010 because of an increase in outstanding borrowingsthat has occurred. The assumed movement in basis points for interest rate sensitivity analysisis based on the currently observable market environment.
