Financial Statements for the purposes of the Electricity (Information Disclosure) Regulations 1999
Notes to the Financial Statements
for the 12 months ended 31 March 1999
ix) Financial Instruments
Financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk, have been entered into for the primary purpose of reducing exposure to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and interest rates. While financial instruments are subject to risk that market rates may change subsequent to acquisition, such changes would generally be offset by opposite effects on the items hedged.
Financial instruments entered into with no underlying exposure are accounted for on a mark to market basis.
x) Research and Development
Costs incurred on all research and development projects are written off as incurred, except that development costs are capitalised to the extent that such costs are expected, beyond any reasonable doubt, to be recovered.
xi) Foreign Currency
Foreign currency transactions are recorded at exchange rates in effect at the date of settlement, except where forward contracts have been taken out to cover future commitments. Where forward contracts have been taken out, the transaction is translated at the rate contained in the contract.
xii) Comparatives
The statements and notes do not restate comparatives or provide comparatives for new disclosure items per the Electricity (Information Disclosure) Regulations 1999.
C. Changes in Accounting Policies
There are no changes in accounting policies.
