181 How We Are Governed Financial Statements Shareholders’ Information Additional Information 3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT'D.) 3.4 Summary of significant accounting policies (cont'd.) (o) Property, plant and equipment and depreciation All items of property, plant and equipment are initially recorded at cost. Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the Bank and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. All other repairs and maintenance are recognised in profit or loss during the financial period in which they are incurred. When significant parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment. Subsequent to initial recognition, property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. The policy for the recognition and measurement of impairment losses is in accordance with Note 3.4(l). Depreciation are not made on freehold land because it has indefinite useful life and capital work-in-progress as these assets are not ready for use. Depreciation of other property, plant and equipment is provided for on a straight-linebasis to write off the cost of each asset to its residual value over the estimated useful life, at the following annual rates: Building 2% Motor vehicles 20% to 25% Computer equipment 10% to 33.33% Plant and office equipment 10% to 33.33% Furniture and fittings 5% to 20% Renovations 10% to 20% The residual values, useful life and depreciation method are reviewed at each reporting date to ensure that the amount, method and period of depreciation are consistent with previous estimates and the expected pattern of consumption of the future economic benefits embodied in the items of property, plant and equipment. An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. The difference between the net disposal proceeds, if any, and the net carrying amount is recognised in profit or loss.
