Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)(g)Financial instruments (Continued)Convertible bondsIssue costs are apportioned between the liability component and the conversion option derivative of theconvertible bonds based on their relative fair value at the date of issue. The portion relating to the conversionoption derivative is charged directly to the consolidated income statement and the remaining portion isdeducted from the liability component.A conversion option that will be settled by the exchange of a fixed amount of cash or another financial assetfor a fixed number of the Company’s own equity instruments is an equity component. A convertible bondwhich included such an equity component is classified as a compound instrument. On initial recognition,the fair value of the liability component is determined using the prevailing market interest rate of similarnon-convertible debt. The difference between the gross proceeds of the issue of the convertible bondsand the fair value assigned to the liability component, representing the conversion option for the holder toconvert the bonds into equity, is included in equity (convertible bonds reserve).The liability component is subsequently measured at amortised cost, using the effective interest method.The interest charged on the liability component is calculated by applying the original effective interest rate.The difference between this amount and the interest paid (if any) is added to the carrying amount of theliability component. In the case that the conversion options are not settled by the exchange of a fixedamount for fixed number of equity instrument, the embedded derivatives are subsequently measured attheir fair values at each balance sheet date with changes in fair value recognised in consolidated incomestatement.Equity instrumentsAn equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Group afterdeducting all of its liabilities.Equity instruments issued by the Company are recorded at the proceeds received, net of direct issuecosts.DerecognitionFinancial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the assets expire or, thefinancial assets are transferred and the Group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards ofownership of the financial assets.
