3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)<br />

g) Intangible Assets<br />

Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. The cost of intangible assets required in<br />

a business combination as their fair values as at the date of acquisition. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are<br />

carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. The useful life of intangible<br />

assets is assessed to be either fi nite or indefi nite. Intangible assets with fi nite lives are amortised on straight-line basis<br />

over the estimated economic useful lives and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible<br />

assets may be impaired. The amortisation period and the amortisation method for an intangible asset with a fi nite useful<br />

life are reviewed at least at each balance sheet date.<br />

Intangible assets with indefi nite useful lives are not amortised but tested for impairment annually or more frequently if<br />

the events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may be impaired either individually or at the<br />

cash-generating unit level. The useful life of an intangible asset with an indefi nite life is also reviewed annually to determine<br />

whether the useful life assessment continues to be supportable.<br />

h) Impairment of Assets<br />

At each balance sheet date, the Group and the Company reviews the carrying amounts of its assets to determine whether<br />

there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, impairment is measured by comparing the carrying<br />

amount of the assets with their recoverable amounts. Recoverable amounts are the higher of net selling price and value<br />

in use, which is measured by reference to discounted future cash fl ows.<br />

An impairment loss is recognised as an expense in the income statement immediately, unless the assets are carried at<br />

a revalued amount. Any impairment losses of revalued assets are treated as a revaluation decrease to the extent of any<br />

unutilised previously recognised revaluation surplus for the same assets. Reversal of impairment losses recognised in prior<br />

years are recorded when the impairment losses recognised for the assets no longer exist or have decreased.<br />

i) Plant and Equipment Acquired Under Hire Purchase Arrangements<br />

Plant and equipment acquired under hire purchase arrangements are being capitalised and the corresponding obligations<br />

treated as liabilities in the fi nancial statements.<br />

Finance costs are allocated to the income statement to give a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining hire<br />

purchase payables.<br />

Plant and equipment acquired under hire purchase arrangements are depreciated over their expected useful lives on the<br />

same basis as owned assets.<br />

j) Leased Assets<br />

Leased of assets where substantially all the risks and benefi ts incidental to the ownership of the asset, but not the legal<br />

ownership, are transferred to the Group are classifi ed as fi nance leases. Finance leases are capitalised, recording an asset<br />

and liability equal to the present value of the minimum lease payments, including any guaranteed residual values.<br />

Leased of assets are depreciated on straight-line basis over the term of the lease estimated useful lives where it is likely<br />

that the Group will obtain ownership of the asset. Lease payment is allocated between the reduction of the lease liability<br />

and the lease interest expense for the year.<br />

Leased payments for operating leases, where substantially all the risks and benefi ts remain with the lessor, are charged<br />

as an expense in the year in which they are incurred.<br />
