Frontken Berhad Annual Report 2017

58 Frontken Corporation Berhad (651020-T) ANNUAL REPORT 2017 3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D) Critical Accounting Estimates And Judgements (Cont’d) (v) Deferred Tax Assets Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses and unabsorbed capital allowances to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits would be available against which the deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses and unabsorbed capital allowances could be utilised. Management judgement is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based on the assessment of the probability of the future taxable profits. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets as at the reporting date is disclosed in Note 14 to the financial statements. (vi) Impairment of Trade Receivables An impairment loss is recognised when there is objective evidence that a financial asset is impaired. Management specifically reviews its trade receivables and analyses their ageing profiles, historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer creditworthiness, current economic trends and changes in the customer payment terms when making a judgement to evaluate the adequacy of the allowance for impairment losses. Where there is objective evidence of impairment, the amount and timing of future cash flows are estimated based on historical loss experience for assets with similar credit risk characteristics. If the expectation is different from the estimation, such difference will impact the carrying value of receivables. The carrying amount of trade receivables as at the reporting date is disclosed in Note 17 to the financial statements. (vii) Write-down of Inventories Reviews are made periodically by management on damaged, obsolete and slow-moving inventories. These reviews require judgement and estimates. Possible changes in these estimates could result in revisions to the valuation of inventories. The carrying amount of inventories as at the reporting date is disclosed in Note 16 to the financial statements. Critical Judgements Made in Applying Accounting Policies Management believes that there are no instances of application of critical judgement in applying the Group’s accounting policies which will have a significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements other than as disclosed below:- (a) Classification of Leasehold Land The classification of leasehold land as a finance lease or an operating lease requires the use of judgement in determining the extent to which risks and rewards incidental to its ownership lie. Despite the fact that there will be no transfer of ownership by the end of the lease term and that the lease term does not constitute the major part of the indefinite economic life of the land, management considered that the present value of the minimum lease payments approximated to the fair value of the land at the inception of the lease. Accordingly, management judged that the Group has acquired substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to the ownership of the land through a finance lease. (b) Fair Value Estimates for Certain Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities The Group carries certain financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value, which requires extensive use of accounting estimates and judgement. While significant components of fair value measurement were determined using verifiable objective evidence, the amount of changes in fair value would differ if the Group uses different valuation methodologies. Any changes in fair value of these assets and liabilities would affect profit and/or equity. Notes To The Financial Statements (cont’d)
