(d) Recognition and measurement
(i)
Borrowings
Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently
measured at amortised cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption
amount is recognised in profit or loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.
Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it is
probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down. In this case, the fee is deferred until the draw down occurs
and amortised over the period of the remaining facility.
(ii)
Borrowing costs
General and specific borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a
qualifying asset are capitalised during the period of time that is required to complete and prepare the asset for its
intended use or sale. Qualifying assets are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their
intended use or sale.
Other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.
