The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for the revaluation of certain financial assets. 2. Adoption of new / revised HKFRS From 1 January 2005, the Group has adopted the new / revised standards and interpretations of HKFRS, which are relevant to its operations. This includes the following new, revised and renamed standards : HKAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements HKAS 2 Inventories HKAS 7 Cash Flow Statements HKAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors HKAS 10 Events after the Balance Sheet Date HKAS 12 Income Taxes HKAS 14 Segment Reporting HKAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment HKAS 17 Leases HKAS 18 Revenue HKAS 19 Employee Benefits HKAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates HKAS 23 Borrowing Costs HKAS 24 Related Party Disclosures HKAS 27 Consolidated and Separated Financial Statements HKAS 32 Financial Instruments : Disclosure and Presentation HKAS 33 Earnings per Share HKAS 36 Impairment of Assets HKAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets HKAS 39 Financial Instruments : Recognition and Measurement HKFRS 3 Business Combinations All the standards have been applied retrospectively except where specific transitional provisions require a different treatment and accordingly the 2004 financial statements and their presentation have been amended in accordance with HKAS 8. Due to the change in accounting policies, the 2004 comparatives contained in these financial statements differ from those published in the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2004. Significant effects on current, prior or future periods arising from the first-time application of the standards listed above in respect to presentation, recognition and measurement of accounts are described in the following notes : 2.1 Adoption of HKAS 1 The application of HKAS 1 led to an update of the presentation of financial statements. Minority interests are now included as a separate line item within equity. Profit and loss attributable to minority interests and that attributable to owners of the parent company is now presented as an allocation of the net result of the year. 2.2 Adoption of HKAS 17 The adoption of HKAS 17 has resulted in a change in the accounting policy relating to the reclassification of leasehold land from property, plant and equipment to operating leases. The up-front prepayments made for the leasehold land are charged to the income statement on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease. In prior years, leasehold land and buildings are not separated and are classified under property, plant and equipment and carried at cost or valuation less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. 2.3 Other standards adopted The adoption of HKAS 2, 7, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 19, 21, 23, 24, 27, 32, 33, 36, 37, 39 and HKFRS 3 did not result in significant alternations to the Group's accounting policies.
