Revenue

Goods and Services
Revenue comprised the amounts received and receivable for goods and services supplied to customers in the ordinary course of business.

Investment Income
Interest is accounted for as earned.

Customer Contributions
Contributions from customers in relation to the construction of new lines for the network are accounted for as income in the year in which they are received.

Property, Plant & Equipment

All property, plant and equipment are initially recorded at cost. System property, plant and equipment are subsequently revalued to net current value as determined by an independent valuer using the depreciated replacement cost valuation method. Other property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less an allowance for depreciation.

Depreciation

Depreciation is provided on all property, plant and equipment, other than freehold land, at rates that will allocate the assets' cost or valuation, to their residual values, over their estimated useful lives. Distribution assets and buildings are depreciated on a straight-line basis. All other assets are depreciated on diminishing value bases.

The useful lives and associated depreciation rates for major classes of assets used in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows:

| Distribution System | 10 to 70 years | 1.4% to 10% |
