Financial Instruments

The financial instruments are recorded at their carrying value which is also the fair value of each of the classes of financial instruments consisting of cash, accounts payable, and accounts.

Cashflows

For the purpose of the statement of cashflow, cash includes cash on hand and deposits held on call with banks.

Goods and Services Tax

The financial statements have been prepared on a G.S.T. inclusive basis.

Changes in Accounting Policies

The new trust deed adopted requires that the Trust is to be treated as a reporting entity and an issuer as defined in the Financial Reporting Act. This has resulted in additional disclosures in the trust’s financial statements relating to financial instruments and related party transactions.

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