253 ANNUAL REPORT 2022 ACCOUNTABILITY NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT’D) For the financial year ended 31 January 2022 2. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued) 2.20 Impairment of non-financial assets (continued) For assets excluding goodwill, an assessment is made at each reporting date to determine whether there is an indication that previously recognised impairment losses no longer exist or have decreased. If such indication exists, the Group estimates the asset’s or CGU’s recoverable amount. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the assumptions used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. The reversal is limited so that the carrying amount of the asset does not exceed its recoverable amount, nor exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognised in the profit or loss unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case, the reversal is treated as a revaluation increase in revaluation reserve. 2.21 Cash and bank balances Cash and bank balances in the statements of financial position comprise cash at banks, cash on hand and shortterm deposits with a maturity of three months or less, for purpose of short-term working capital rather than for investment or other purposes, that are convertible to known amounts of cash and is not subject to significant risk of change in value. For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and short-term deposits, as defined above. 2.22 Provisions Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate of the amount can be made. When the Group expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example, under an insurance contract, the reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset, but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to a provision is presented in the profit or loss net of any reimbursement. 2.23 Employee benefits (a) Short term employee benefits Wages, salaries, paid annual leave and sick leave, bonuses, and non-monetary benefits that are expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service are recognised in respect of employees’ services up to the end of the reporting period and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. (b) Defined contribution plans The Group’s contributions to defined contribution plans are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate. Once the contributions have been paid, the Group and the Company have no further financial obligations. (c) Share-based payment The Group operates a number of equity-settled, share-based compensation plans under which the Group receives services from employees as consideration for equity options and awards over ordinary shares of the Company or for cash. Share options represent the right of an employee to receive share for a prescribed exercise price. Share awards represent the right of an employee to receive fully paid shares, free of charge, upon the Company achieving prescribed performance target(s).
