SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES<br />

FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31 JANUARY <strong>2009</strong><br />

A<br />

BASIS OF PREPARATION (CONTINUED)<br />

(b) Standard, and interpretations to existing standards that are not yet effective and have not been early<br />

adopted<br />

the new standards and interpretations that are mandatory for the Group’s and for the Company’s financial periods<br />

beginning on or after 1 February 2010 or later periods, but which the Group and the Company have not early<br />

adopted, are as follows:<br />

• FRS 8 “Operating Segments” (effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 July <strong>2009</strong>). FRS 8<br />

replaces FRS 114 2004<br />

Segment <strong>Report</strong>ing. The new standard requires a ‘management approach’, under which<br />

segment information is presented on the same basis as that used for internal reporting purposes. The Group<br />

will apply this standard from financial year beginning on 1 February 2010.<br />

This standard is not anticipated to have significant impact on the financial statements of the Group and the<br />

Company in the year of initial application.<br />

• IC Interpretation 9 Reassessment of Embedded Derivatives (effective for annual period beginning on or after<br />

1 January 2010). IC Interpretation 9 requires an entity to assess whether an embedded derivative is required<br />

to be separated from the host contract and accounted for as a derivative when the entity first becomes a party<br />

to the contract. Subsequent reassessment is prohibited unless there is a change in the terms of the contract<br />

that significantly modifies the cash flows that otherwise would be required under the contract, in which case<br />

reassessment is required. The Group will apply this standard from financial year beginning on 1 February<br />

2010.<br />

This interpretation is not anticipated to have significant impact on the financial statements of the Group and the<br />

Company in the year of initial application.<br />

• IC Interpretation 10 Interim Financial <strong>Report</strong>ing and Impairment (effective for annual period beginning on or<br />

after 1 January 2010). IC Interpretation 10 prohibits the impairment losses recognised in an interim period<br />

on goodwill and investments in equity instruments and in financial assets carried at cost to be reversed at a<br />

subsequent balance sheet date. The Group will apply this standard from financial year beginning on 1 February<br />

2010.<br />

This interpretation is not anticipated to have significant impact on the financial statements of the Group and the<br />

Company in the year of initial application.<br />

• The following standards will be effective for annual period beginning on or after 1 January 2010. The Group<br />

will apply these standards from financial periods beginning on 1 February 2010. The Group has applied the<br />

transitional provision in the respective standards which exempts entities from disclosing the possible impact<br />

arising from the initial application of the standard on the financial statements of the Group and the Company.<br />

- FRS 7 “Financial Instruments: Disclosure”<br />

- FRS 139 “Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement”<br />

(c) Standard that is not yet effective and is not relevant to the Group and the Company<br />

• FRS 4 “Insurance Contracts” (effective for annual period beginning on or after 1 January 2010).<br />
