NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS continued
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2004
(i) Statement of Cash Flows (continued)
(iii) Investing activities comprise the purchase, holding and disposal of fixed assets and investments. Capitalised interest on capital work in progress is also included in investing activities.
(iv) Financing include changes in equity, borrowings and dividends paid on equity. Cash flows arising from short term loans are disclosed as a net cash movement due to the volume of transactions involved.
(j) Taxation
The Transpower Lines Business follows the liability method of accounting for deferred tax applied on a partial basis.
The tax expense charged against the surplus for the year is the estimated liability in respect of that surplus after allowance for permanent differences plus any adjustments arising from prior years.
The partial basis considers the cumulative income tax effect of all timing differences. The income tax effects of timing differences are only recognised as deferred tax for those timing differences that can be expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.
Timing differences that are not recognised in the Statement of Financial Position are disclosed in the Deferred Tax liability memorandum account in Note 6.
Future tax benefits attributable to losses carried forward are recognised in the financial statements only where there is virtual certainty that the benefit of the losses will be utilised.
(k) Foreign Currencies
Transactions denominated in a foreign currency are converted at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities at balance date are translated at exchange rates current at balance date. Where transactions are hedged they are translated at the hedge rate.
Gains and losses due to currency fluctuations on foreign currency receivables and payables are included in the Statement of Financial Performance.
Exchange differences arising on uncompleted contracts on hedging transactions undertaken to establish the price of a particular purchase are deferred and are included in the measurement of the purchase transaction as at the transaction date.
