Notes To The Financial Statements cont’d5. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES cont’d5.1 Basis of Consolidation cont’d5.1.2 AssociatesAssociates are entities in which the <strong>Group</strong> has significant influence, but not control, over the financial and operatingpolicies.In the Company’s separate financial statements, investments in associates are stated at cost less impairment losses, if any.On disposal of such investments, the difference between net disposal proceeds and their carrying amounts is included in theincome statement.Investments in associates are accounted for in the consolidated financial statements using the equity method of accountingbased on the latest financial statements of the associates concerned, from the date significant influence commences until thedate the <strong>Group</strong> ceases to have significant influence over the associates. The investment in associates in the consolidatedbalance sheets are initially recognised at cost and adjusted thereafter for the post acquisition changes in the <strong>Group</strong>’s shareof net assets of the investments.The excess of the cost of investment over the <strong>Group</strong>’s share of the net fair value of net assets of the associates’ identifiableassets, liabilities and contingent liabilities at the date of acquisition represent goodwill. Goodwill relating to the associate isincluded in the carrying amount of the investment and is not amortised. The excess of the <strong>Group</strong>’s share of the net fair valueof net assets of the associates’ identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities over the cost of investment at the date ofacquisition is recognised in the consolidated income statements.The <strong>Group</strong>’s share of results of the associates during the financial year is recognised in the consolidated income statements.Distributions received from the associates reduce the carrying amount of the investments. Adjustments to the carrying amountmay also be necessary for changes in the <strong>Group</strong>’s proportionate interest in the associate arising from changes in theassociate’s equity that have not been recognised in the associate’s income statement. Such changes include those arisingfrom the revaluation of property, plant and equipment and from foreign currency translation differences. The <strong>Group</strong>’s shareof those changes is recognised directly in equity of the <strong>Group</strong>.When the <strong>Group</strong>’s share of losses exceeds its interest in the associate, the carrying amount of that interest is reduced to niland the <strong>Group</strong> does not recognise further losses unless it has incurred legal or construction obligations or made paymentson its behalf.<strong>IOI</strong> Corporation BerhadANNUAL REPORT 2007 148
