Items of property, plant and equipment that were previously fully depreciated, were reinstated to reflect the reflect the applicable useful lives and
residual values from their respective dates of acquisition. Where not practicable, the Group has elected to measure individual items of
property, plant and equipment at fair value on 1 July 2004. In future those fair values
are deemed to be cost at that date.
Where significant components of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives or residual values those components
are accounted for as separate items of property, plant and equipment. Previously all parts of an item of property, plant and equipment
were depreciated at the same rate.
2.2 Share-based payment transactions
In accordance with IFRS2:
Share-based Payment the fair value of share options granted to employees is recognised as an employee
expense in operating profit with a corresponding increase in equity. The fair value is measured at grant date and expensed over the period
during which the employee becomes unconditionally entitled to the equity instruments (the vesting period). The fair value of the instruments
granted is measured using an appropriate valuation technique, taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the instruments
are granted. This accounting policy has been applied to all share options granted after 7 November 2002 that had not yet vested at
1 January 2005. Previously such expenses were not recognised in the income statement.
2.3 Presentation of minority interest in subsidiary companies
Minority interests are now reflected as part of equity. Any change in ownership interest in subsidiary companies without a change in control
is recognised as an equity transaction in the consolidated financial statements.
2.4 Discontinued operations
In accordance with the requirements ofIFRS5:
Non-current Assets Held-For-Sale and Discontinued Operations
, the financial results of
discontinued operations are reported as one line item in the income statement and not on a line-by-line basis. Refer to note 3.
2.5 Interest free receivables and the recognition of revenue
IAS 39: Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement
requires that imputed interest be recognised on interest free receivables.
IAS18: Revenue further requires that revenue be recognised at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Accordingly,
where the fair value of the Group's consideration is significantly impacted by the time value of money, a portion of the revenue has been
deemed to be interest income recognised on a time apportionment basis. This has resulted in a decrease in recognised revenue and
certain financial receivables and liabilities.
2.6 Reclassifications and disclosure adjustments
In addition to the above adjustments certain reclassifications and disclosure adjustments were made to the balance sheet presentation,
most notably the reallocation of certain interest-bearing liabilities from accounts payable to short-term loans and the separation of
computer software from property, plant and equipment into intangible assets. The depreciation of these intangible assets is now reflected
as amortisation of intangible assets in the income statement.
