SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTD.)

2.3 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Contd.)

(e) Property, Plant and Equipment (Contd.)

Freehold land and buildings other than office buildings are stated at revalued amount, which is the

fair value at the date of the revaluation less any accumulated impairment losses. Revaluations

are made at least once in every five years based on a revaluation by an independent valuer on an

open market value basis. Any revaluation surplus is credited to the revaluation reserve included

within equity, except to the extent that it reverses a revaluation decrease for the same asset

previously recognised in profit or loss, in which case the increase is recognised in profit or loss to

the extent of the decrease previously recognised.

A revaluation deficit is first offset against unutilised previously recognised revaluation surplus in

respect of the same asset and the balance is thereafter recognised in profit or loss. Upon disposal

or retirement of an asset, any revaluation reserve relating to the particular asset is transferred

directly to retained earnings.

Freehold land has an unlimited useful life and therefore is not depreciated. Land held on long

lease is held on a lease with an unexpired period of 50 years or more. A lease of less than 50

years is described as a short lease.

Other property, plant and equipment is depreciated on a straight-line basis to write-off the cost of

each asset to its residual value over the estimated useful life, at the following annual rates:

Buildings

2% to 10%

Leasehold land

Over lease period

Plant and machinery

10% - 25%

Factory and office renovations

2% to 20%

Equipment, furniture and fittings and motor vehicles

10% - 33.3%

Assets under construction or capital work-in-progress included in property, plant and equipment

are not depreciated as these assets are not yet available for use.

The carrying values of property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment when events or

changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.

The residual value, useful life and depreciation method are reviewed at each financial year-end,

and adjusted prospectively if appropriate.

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future

economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss on derecognition of the

asset is included in the profit or loss in the year the asset is derecognised.
