Investment in subsidiary undertakings
|
Investments in subsidiary undertakings are stated at cost in the Company’s Balance Sheet, less any provision for impairment in value.
Other investments are financial assets held at fair value. Changes to fair value are recorded within other comprehensive income.
A provision is recognised in the Balance Sheet when the Company has a constructive or legal obligation as a result of a past event and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Where relevant, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability.
Revenue is derived from the Company's share of profits from The Oriana Limited Partnership and is recognised when the rights to receive profits is established.
Management and administrative expenditure is expensed as incurred.
