Right-of-use assets are initially measured at the amount of the lease liability, reduced for any lease incentives received, and increased for: • lease payments made at or before commencement of the lease; • initial direct costs incurred; and • the amount of any provision recognised where the Group and the Company are contractually required to dismantle, remove or restore the leased asset (typically leasehold dilapidations). Subsequent to initial measurement, lease liabilities increase as a result of interest charged at a constant rate on the balance outstanding and are reduced for lease payments made. Right-of-use assets are amortised on a straight-line basis over the remaining term of the lease or over the remaining economic life of the asset if, rarely, this is judged to be shorter than the lease term. When the Group and the Company revise its estimate of the term of any lease (because, for example, it re-assesses the probability of a lessee extension or termination option being exercised), it adjusts the carrying amount of the lease liability to reflect the payments to make over the revised term, which are discounted at a revised discount rate that applied on lease commencement. On the other hand, the carrying value of lease liabilities is revised using same discount rate when the variable element of future lease payments dependent on a rate or index is revised. In both cases an equivalent adjustment is made to the carrying value of the right- of-use asset, with the revised carrying amount being amortised over the remaining (revised) lease term. When the Group and the Company renegotiate the contractual terms of a lease with the lessor, the accounting depends on the nature of the modification: • if the renegotiation results in one or more additional assets being leased for an amount commensurate with the standalone price for the additional rights-of-use obtained, the modification is accounted for as a separate lease in accordance with the above policy. • in all other cases where the renegotiation increases the scope of the lease (whether that is an extension to the lease term, or one or more additional assets being leased), the lease liability is re-measured using the discount rate applicable on the modification date, with the right-of-use asset being adjusted by the same amount. • if the renegotiation results in a decrease in the scope of the lease, both the carrying amount of the lease liability and rightof-use asset are reduced by the same proportion to reflect the partial or full termination of the lease with any difference recognised in profit or loss. The lease liability is then further adjusted to ensure its carrying amount reflects the amount of the renegotiated payments over the renegotiated term, with the modified lease payments discounted at the rate applicable on the modification date. The right-of-use asset is adjusted by the same amount. For contracts that both convey a right to the Group and the Company to use an identified asset and require services to be provided to the Group and the Company by the lessor, the Group and the Company have elected to account for the entire contract as a lease, i.e. it does allocate any amount of the contractual payments to, and account separately for, any services provided by the supplier as part of the contract. Payments associated with short-term leases and all leases of low-value assets are recognised on a straight-line basis as an expense in profit or loss. (i) Equipment Equipment is stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. An item of equipment and any significant part initially recognised is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised. An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount. Gains and losses on disposal are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in profit or loss. When revalued assets are sold, the amounts previously included in revaluation reserves are transferred to retained earnings. Depreciation on equipment and vehicles are calculated on the straight line method to write off the costs or revalued amounts of the assets to their residual values as follows: % Equipment 15 – 100 Vehicles 15 – 25 The assets’ residual values, depreciation method and useful lives are reviewed and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period. 131 Introduction Group Overview Leadership Strategy & Performance Risk Management Corporate Governance Statutory Disclosures Financial
