Receivables<br />

Trade and other receivables are stated at nominal value as reduced by the appropriate allowances for estimated<br />

irrecoverable amounts. Allowance for bad and doubtful receivables is made based on estimates of possible losses<br />

which may arise from non-collection of certain receivable accounts while receivables considered to be uncollectible<br />

are written off.<br />

RM Denominated Bonds (“LICB Bonds”) and USD Consolidated and Rescheduled Debts (“USD Debts”)<br />

LICB Bonds and USD Debts are recorded at the net present value of debts to be settled, net of borrowing costs, if<br />

any, adjusted for accretion of interest over the period of the debts. Borrowing costs are amortised, using the<br />

straight-line method, over the period of the debts.<br />

Provisions<br />

Provisions are recognised when the <strong>Group</strong> or the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a<br />

result of past events, when it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, and<br />

when a reliable estimate of the amount can be made.<br />

Cash Flow Statements<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Group</strong> and the Company adopt the indirect method in the preparation of the cash flow statements.<br />

Cash equivalents are short-term, highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less from the date of<br />

acquisition and are readily convertible to cash with insignificant risks of changes in value.<br />
