Summary of significant accounting policies (cont’d)
2.9
Property, plant and equipment
All items of property, plant and equipment are initially recorded at cost. Subsequent to recognition, property, plant and
equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.
Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:
Furniture, fixtures and equipment
– 20% to 33
1
/
3
%
Kitchen equipment
– 20%
Leasehold property
– 2% (over the lease period of 50 years)
Motor vehicles
– 20%
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 de-recognition of the asset is included in profit or loss in the year
the asset is derecognised.
2.10
Impairment of non-financial assets
The Group assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any
indication exists, or when an annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Group makes an estimate of the
asset’s recoverable amount.
An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s or cash-generating unit’s fair value less costs of disposal
and its value in use and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that
are largely independent of those from other assets or group of assets. Where the carrying amount of an asset or cash-
generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable
amount.
Impairment losses of continuing operations are recognised in profit or loss, except for assets that are previously revalued
where the revaluation was taken to other comprehensive income. In this case, the impairment is also recognised in other
comprehensive income up to the amount of any previous revaluation.
A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine
the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. If that is the case, the carrying amount
of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount. That increase cannot exceed the carrying amount that would have
been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised previously. Such reversal is recognised
in profit or loss unless the asset is measured at revalued amount, in which case the reversal is treated as a revaluation
increase.
