Accounting policies
The principal accounting policies used in preparing the Group's consolidated financial
statements, in accordance with EU-IFRSs, were as follows:
a)
Goodwill on consolidation
Goodwill arising on consolidation represents the excess of the cost of acquisition, plus
the non-controlling interests and fair value of any previous investment in the acquiree,
over the Group's interest in the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of a
subsidiary at the date of acquisition.
The assets and liabilities acquired are measured provisionally at the date on which
control of the company is obtained, and the resulting value is reviewed within a
maximum period of one year from the acquisition date until the fair value of the assets
and liabilities has been calculated definitively. Any difference between the acquisition
cost and the fair value of the assets and liabilities acquired will be temporarily recognised
as goodwill.
Goodwill acquired on or after 1 January 2004 is measured at acquisition cost and that
acquired earlier is recognised at the carrying amount at 31 December 2003. In both
cases, at the end of each reporting period goodwill is reviewed for impairment (i.e. a
reduction in its recoverable amount to below its carrying amount) and, if there is any
impairment, the goodwill is written down with a charge to “Impairment and Gains or
Losses on Disposals of Non-Current Assets” in the accompanying consolidated statement
of profit or loss
.
