    Tangible fixed assets depreciation policy

    Investment property is property held either to earn rental income or for capital appreciation or both, but not for sale in the ordinary course of business, use in the production or supply of goods or services or for administrative purposes. Investment property is measured at cost, including transaction costs, on initialrecognition and subsequently at fair value with any change therein recognised in profit or loss. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the investment property. Fair value is determined at each statement of financial position date. In addition, the investment properties are valued by independent professional valuers at least once a year. Subsequent expenditure relating to investment property that has already been recognised is added to the carrying amount of the asset when it is probable that future economic benefits, in excess of originally assessed standard of performance of the existing asset, will flow to the Company. All other subsequentexpenditure is recognised as an expense in the period in which it is incurred. Investment property is derecognised when either they have been disposed of or when no future economic benefit is expected from their disposal. Any gains or losses on the disposal are recognised in the profit or loss.

    Valuation information and policy

    In 2020 the company used a valuation performed by its external valuer, CBRE Limited, as the fair value of its investment property.The valuation of investment property is inherently subjective due to, among other factors, the individual nature of each property, its location and the expected future rental revenues from thatparticular property. As a result the valuations the Company places on its property portfolio are subject to a degree of uncertainty and are made on the basis of assumption which may not prove to beaccurate, particularly in periods of volatility or low transactions flow in the market.

    The company has taken advantage of the following disclosure exemption under FRS101:-the requirements of IFRS7 Financial Instruments Disclosures-the requirements of paragraphs 91-99 IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement-the requirement in paragraph 38 of IAS 1 "Presentation of Financial Statements to present comparative information in respect of:- paragraph 79(a)(iv) of IAS1- paragraph 73(e) and of IAS16 Property, Plant and Equipment- paragraph 118(e) of IAS 38 Intangible Assets- paragraphs 76 and 79(d) of IAS 40 Investment Property; and- the requirements of paragraphs 10(d), 10(f), 16, 38A, 38B, 38C, 38D, 40A, 40B, 40C, 40D, 111 and134-136 of IAS1 Presentation of Financial statements- the requirements of IAS7 Statement of Cash Flows- the requirements of paragraphs 30 and 31 of IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in AccountingEstimates and Errors- the requirements of IAS 24 Related Party Disclosures to disclose related party transactions entered into between two or more members of a group, provided that any subsidiary which is a party to the transaction is wholly owned by such a member- the requirements of paragraphs 134(d)-134(f) and 135(c)-135(e) of IAS36 Impairment of AssetsThe equivalent disclosures relating to IFRS7, IFRS 13 and IAS 36 are included in the consolidated financial statements of Hines Real Estate Master FCP-FIS in which the Company is consolidated.

5. Current assets investments note

The Company is required to judge when there is sufficient subjective evidence to require the impairment of individual trade receivables. It does this by assessing on a forward-looking basis, the expected credit losses associated with its trade receivables. A provision for impairment is made for the lifetime expected credit losses on initial recognition of the receivable. In determining expected credit losses, the Company takes into account any recent payment behaviours and future expectations of likely default events (i.e not making payment on the due date) based on individual customer credit ratings, actual or expected insolvency filing or company voluntary arrangement and market expectations and trends in the wider macro-economic environment in which our customers operate. These assessments are made on a customer-by-customer basis.
