and subsequently measured al amortised cost determined using the effective interest method.
Taxation
A current tax liability is recognised for the tsx payable on the taxable profil of the current and past
periods. A current tax asset is recognised in respect of a tax loss that can be carried back to
recover lax paid in a previous period. Deferred lax is recognised in respect ol all liming differences
between the recognition of income and expenses in the financial statements and their inclusion in
tax assessments. Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred lax assets are recognised only lo the
exlenl that il is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or
other future taxable profits. Deferred tax is measured using the lax rates and laws that have been
enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting dale and that are expected to apply lo the

Leased assets
A lease is classified as a finance lease if il transfers subslanlially all the risks and rewards
incidental lo ownership. All other leases are classified as operating leases. The rights of use and
oblkJations under finance leases are initially recognised as assets and liabilities at amounts equal
lo the fair value of the leased assets or, if lower, the present value of the minimum lease
payments. Minimum lease payments are apportioned between the finance charge and the
reduction in the OLJlslanding liability using the effective interest rale method. The finance charge is
allocated lo each period during the lease so as lo produce a constsnt periodic rale Df interest on
the remaining balance of the liability. Leased assets are depreciated in accordance with the
companys policy for tangible fixed as58ts. If there is no reasonable certainty that ownership will be
obtained at the end of the lease term, the asset is depreciated over the lower of the lease temi
and its useful life. Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a slraighl line basis
over the lease term.
