2. Summary of significant accounting policies (cont'd)

2.4 Significant accounting judgements and estimates

The preparation of the Company's financial statements requires management to makejudgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues,expenses, assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the end ofeach reporting period. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result inoutcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of the asset or liabilityaffected in the future periods.

Key sources of estimation uncertainty

The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertaintyat the end of the reporting period, that have a significant risk of causing a materialadjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities within the next financial year arediscussed below:

Depreciation of proaerty. plant and equipment

The cost of property, plant and equipment is depreciated on a straight-line basis over theiruseful lives. Management estimates the useful lives of these property, plant andequipment to be between 3 to 5 years. The carrying amount of the Company's property,plant and equipment at 31 March 2016 was S$49,407 (2015: S$75,668). Changes in theexpected level of usage and technological developments could impact the economic usefullives and the residual values of these assets, therefore future depreciation charges couldbe revised.

2.5 Functional and foreign currencies

(a) Functional currency

The management has determined the currency of the primary economicenvironment in which the Company operates i.e., functional currency, to be SGD.Major costs of providing services including major operating expenses are primarilyinfluenced by fluctuations in SGD.

(b) Foreign currency transactions

Transactions in foreign currencies are measured in the functional currency arerecorded on the initial recognition in the functional currency at exchange ratesapproximating those ruling at the transaction dates. Monetary assets and liabilitiesdenominated in foreign currencies are translated at the closing rate of exchangeruling at the end of the reporting period. Non-monetary items that are measured interms of historical cost in foreign currency are translated using the exchange ratesas at the dates of the initial transactions. Non-monetary items are measured at fairvalue in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the datewhen the fair value was determined.

Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items or on translatingmonetary items at the end of the reporting period are recognised in profit or loss.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies (cont'd)

2.6 Property, plant and equipment

All items of property, plant and equipment are initially recorded at cost. The cost of an itemof property, plant and equipment is recognised as an asset if, and only if, it is probable thatfuture economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost ofthe item can be measured reliably. Subsequent to recognition, property, plant andequipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulatedimpairment losses.

Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of theassets as follows:

Computers - 3 yearsFurniture and fittings - 5 yearsOffice equipment - 5 years

The carrying values of property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenevents or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying values may not berecoverable.

The residual value, useful life and depreciation method are reviewed at each financial yearend, and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no futureeconomic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gains or losses onderecognition of the asset is included in profit or loss in the financial year the asset isderecognised.

2.7 Impairment ofnon-financial assets

The Company assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there is an indicationthat an asset may be impaired. If any such indication exists, or when annual impairmentassessment for an asset is required, the Company makes an estimate of the assetsrecoverable amount.

An asset's recoverable amount is the higher of an assets or cash-generating units fairvalue less costs to sell and its value in use and is determined for an individual asset, unlessthe asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from otherassets. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows expected to begenerated by the asset are discounted to their present values. Where the carrying amountof an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is written-down to its recoverableamount.

An assessment is made at the end of each reporting period as to whether there is anyindication that previously recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may havedecreased. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been achange in the estimates used to determine the assets recoverable amount since the lastimpairment loss was recognised. If that is the case, the carrying amount of the asset isincreased to its recoverable amount. That increase cannot exceed the carrying amountthat would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss berecognised previously. Such reversal is recognised in profit or loss unless the asset ismeasured at revalued amount, in which case the reversal is treated as revaluationincrease.

2.8 Financial assets

Financial assets are recognised when, and only when, the Company becomes a party tothe contractual provisions of the financial instruments. When financial assets arerecognised initially, they are measured at fair value, plus, in the case of financial assets notat fair value through profit or loss, directly attributable transaction costs.

A financial asset is derecognised where the contractual right to receive cash flows from theasset has expired. On derecognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the differencesbetween the carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and anycumulative gains or losses that have been recognised in other comprehensive income isrecognised in profit or loss.

All regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised or derecognised onthe trade date i.e., the date that the Company commits to purchase or sell the asset.Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets that requiredelivery of assets within the period generally established by regulation or convention in themarketplace concerned.

Loans and receivables

Non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted inan active market are classified as loans and receivables. Subsequent to initial recognition,loans and receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.Gains or losses are recognised in profit or loss when the loans and receivables arederecognised or impaired and through the amortisation process. The Company classifiescash and cash equivalents, amounts due from ultimate holding company, amounts duefrom related companies, refundable deposits and other receivables as loans andreceivables.

2.9 Impairment of financial assets

The Company assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there is any objectiveevidence that a financial asset is impaired:

Financial assets carried at amortised cost

If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss on financial assets carried atamortised cost has been incurred, the amount of the loss is measured as the differencesbetween the assets carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flowsdiscounted at the financial asset's original effective interest rate. The carrying amount ofthe asset is reduced through the use of an allowance account. The impairment loss isrecognised in profit or loss.

When the asset becomes uncollectible, the carrying amount of impaired financial assets isreduced directly or if an amount was charged to the allowance account, the amountscharged to the allowance account are written-off against the carrying values of the financialassets.

To determine whether there is objective evidence that an impairment loss on financialassets had been incurred, the Company considers factors such as the probability ofinsolvency or significant financial difficulties of the debtor and default or significant delay inpayments.

If in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decreasecan be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, thepreviously recognised impairment loss is reversed to the extent that the carrying amount ofthe asset does not exceed its amortised cost at the reversal date. The amount of reversalis recognised in profit or loss.

2.11 Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation as a result of a pastevent, it is probable that an outflow of economic resources will be required to settle theobligation and the amount of the obligation can be estimated reliably.

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 economic resources willbe required to settle the obligation, the provisions are reversed. If the effect of the timevalue of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre tax rate thatreflects, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, theincreases in the provisions due to the passage of time are recognised as a finance cost.

2.12 Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities include accrued expenses. Financial liabilities are recognised when,and only when, the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financialinstruments. The Company determines the classification of its financial liabilities at initialrecognition. All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value, and in the case ofother financial liabilities, plus directly attributable transaction costs.

Subsequent to initial recognition, all financial liabilities are measured at amortised costusing the effective interest method. For financial liabilities, gains or losses are recognisedin profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognised and through the amortisation process.The liabilities are derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged orcancelled or expired.

2.13 Employee benefits

As required by law, the Company makes contributions to the Central Provident Fund("CPF") scheme in Singapore, a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions tonational pension schemes are recognised as an expense in the financial period in whichthe related service is performed.

2.15 Taxes

(a) Current income tax

Current income tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods aremeasured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxationauthorities.

Current income taxes are recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that thetax relates to items recognised outside profit or loss, either in other comprehensiveincome directly in equity.

(b) Deferred tax

Deferred tax is provided using the liability method on temporary differences at theend of the reporting period between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and theircarrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for all temporary differences,except:

Where the deferred tax arises from the initial recognition of an asset orliability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the timeof the transaction affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit orloss; and

In respect of deductible temporary differences and carry-forward of unusedtax credits and unused tax losses, if it is not probable that taxable profit willbe available against which the deductible temporary differences and carry-forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised.

The carrying amount of deferred tax asset is reviewed at the end of each reportingperiod and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxableprofit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised.Unrecognised deferred tax assets are reassessed at the end of each reportingperiod and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that futuretaxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expectedto apply to the financial year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled,based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enactedat the end of the reporting period.

14. Financial risk management objectives and policies

The management considers that the Company's key financial risks are credit risk, foreigncurrency risk and liquidity risk.

(a) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of loss that may arise on outstanding financial assets should acounterparty default on its obligations. The Company's exposure to credit riskarises primarily from amounts due from related companies and other receivables.The cash and cash equivalents are placed with a financial institution with goodcredit rating.

The Company attempts to minimise its credit risk by evaluating and monitoring thecredit exposure to its related parties and other receivables. The Company adoptedthe policy of only dealing with credit worthy counterparties to mitigate the risk offinancial loss from default.

Exposure to credit risk arising from related party transactions is minimal as thesecompanies are of high credit quality and loans are of short duration. The carryingamount of other receivables, refundable deposits and cash and cash equivalentsrepresent the Company's maximum exposure to credit risk. No other financialasset carries a significant exposure to credit risk.

As at the end of the reporting period, there is no financial asset that is past due orimpaired or would otherwise be past due or impaired.

(b) Foreign currency risk

Foreign currency risk is the risk that arises from the change in price of onecurrency against another because of changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

The Company is exposed to movements in the foreign currency exchange ratesother than in its functional currency, the SGD. The Company reviews its exposureto foreign currency risk on a regular basis.

As at 31 March 2016, the Company does not have any assets or liabilitiesdenominated in United States dollars ("USD" or "US$") (2015: S$302,830).

The following table demonstrates the sensitivity of the Company's equity tochanges in the value of the cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivablesresulting from a reasonable possible change in USD against SGD, with all othervariables held constant:

USD - strengthened by 5% (2015: 5%)USD - weakened by 5% (2015: 5%)
