    Property

    Freehold land and buildings are measured at cost and therefore are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation

    and any accumulated impairment. In the event the carrying amount of land and buildings is greater than the

    estimated recoverable amount, the carrying amount is written down immediately to the estimated recoverable

    amount and impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss. A formal assessment of recoverable amount is

    made when impairment indicators are present.

    Depreciation (continued)

    The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting

    period.

    An assets’ carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the assets’ carrying amount is

    greater than its estimated recoverable amount.

    Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains and

    losses are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise. When revalued assets are sold, amounts

    included in the revaluation surplus relating to that asset are transferred to retained earnings.

    (e) Leases

    fair value of the leased property or the present value of the minimum lease payments, including any guaranteed

    residual values. Lease payments are allocated between the reduction of the lease liability and the lease interest

    or loss, unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount in accordance with another Standard. Any impairment

    Initial recognition and measurement

    Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the entity becomes a party to the contractual

    provisionstotheinstrument.Forfinancialassets,thisisequivalenttothedatethatthecompanycommitsitselfto

    either purchase or sell the asset (ie trade date accounting is adopted). Financial instruments are initially measured

    or cost.

    Amortised cost is calculated as the amount at which the financial asset or financial liability is measured at

    initial recognition less principal repayments and any reduction for impairment, and adjusted for any cumulative

    amortisation of the difference between that initial amount and the maturity amount calculated using the effective

    interest method.

    estimated future cash flows of the financial asset(s).

    In the case of financial assets carried at amortised cost loss events may include: indications that the debtors or

    payments;indicationsthattheywillenterbankruptcyorotherfinancialreorganisation;andchangesinarrearsor

    For financial assets carried at amortised cost (including loans and receivables), a separate allowance account is

    usedtoreducethecarryingamountoffinancialassetsimpairedbycreditlosses.Afterhavingtakenallpossible

    measures of recovery, if management establishes that the carrying amount cannot be recovered by any means,

    at that point the written-off amounts are charged to the allowance account or the carrying amount of impaired

    financial asset is reduced directly if no impairment amount was previously recognised in the allowance account.
