Sale of Public Securities—

Profit or losses realised on sale of public securities are reflected in the statement of profit in equal annual instalments over the unexpired period to maturity or five years, whichever is the shorter.

Taxation—

The liability method of interperiod tax allocation has been applied primarily in respect of public security interest income.

Changes in Accounting Policies—

There have been no changes in accounting policies. All policies have been applied on bases consistent with those used in previous years.

3. Investment in Subsidiary

During the year the company acquired all of the issued capital of The Commercial Bank Savings Bank (N.Z.) Limited for a consideration equivalent to the value of the outstanding shares. Subsequently the book value of the investment was revalued to the net asset value of the investee company. Distributions by way of dividend of $3,985,000 have been offset against the book value of the investment in order to recognise the diminution in the value of its underlying net assets arising from the payment.
