Financial liabilities and equity instrum¢iits are classified a¢¢ording to th¢ sllbstante of the contractual aiTangemErils entered into. An eqiiity instrument is any contra¢t that evidences a re5idEial interest in the assets of tlie charity after deducting all ofils liabilitie5. The charity's policies for its majoi. classes of f5nancial assets and finan¢ial liabilitie5 are set out below. rilrtaneial assets Basic financial assets, inc141ding trade and othei. debtor5 and cash and bank balances are initially recognis¢d at transactioii price, unless the ai'rang¢inettt constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is Ineasui'ed at the present value of the fiitur¢ ieccipts discounted at a mai'ket rate of inteie5t for a similaT debt instriinient. Finaiicing transactions are those in which payment is deferred beyond noi'inal business terins or is financed at a rate of interest that is not a market Tate. Such assets are 511bseqEiently corried at amortised cost using the effective interest rate Inethod, less aiiy iiiipairinenÉ. Financipl liabillties Basic finaiicial liabilities, inclLiding trade and other creditors and loans are initially recognised at tiai)5action price, uiileis the ari'ai)gement constitutes a finatjcing transaction, wheie ihe debt insti'uin¢nt is measured at the present value of the futui'e payinentsdiscounted at a Inai'ket rate of intei'est fot. a Similar debt insti'ument. Financing transactions are those in which payin¢iit l5 defei'red beyond norinal biisiness terms or is financ¢d a( a rate of interest that is not a mai'ket rate. Debt instNments are subsequently caryied at amortjs¢d cost, Lising the effe¢tive interest rate method. Impairnienl of financial assets Financial assets Int￿lijed at cost and amortised cost are assessed at the end of each reporting period for objective evidence of iinpairjnent. If objective evidence of iiiipairment ss found. an impairjneni loss 15 recoonised in ttie proflt and loss accouiit. Foi. financial ass¢ts ineasui'ed at cost less iinpairmeiit, the unpaii'ineiit loss is n)easLired as the diffei'ence between the asset's cariying ainDunt and th¢ best estiina(e of the ainount tlie charity would receive for the assct if it were to be sold at the repoi'tiThg date. For financial assets measured at amortised cost, Ihe impainnent loss is measured as the difference between the asset's C£triying ainount and the present valiie of estiinat¢d cash flows discounted at the asset's oiiginal effective interest late. If the fiiiancEal asset has & variable interest rate, the discount l'ate foi. measuring any impairment loss is the current effective interest rate detei"Inined undei. the conti2ct. If thei'e i5 a decrease the impairni¢nt loss arising fi'om an event oCcU￿1ng after the impaimicnt was recognised, the illlpainnent is I'eversed, The reversal is such that the cui'irnt cairying ainoiint does not exceed what the canying aTt]ount would have been had the %inpairment noi previously been Yecognised.
