Annual Report 2020

2. Summary of significant accounting policies (cont'd.) 2.11 Inventories Inventories which comprise consumables used internally for repairs and maintenance are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined on the weighted average basis, and comprises the purchase price and incidentals incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less all applicable variable selling expenses. In arriving at net realisable value, due allowance is made for all damaged, obsolete and slow-moving items. 2.12 Financial assets 2.12.1 Classification The Group and the Company classify their financial assets in the following categories; fair value through profit or loss, fair value through other comprehensive income and amortised cost. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss All financial assets not measured at amortised cost or fair value through other comprehensive income as described below are measured at fair value through profit or loss. This includes derivative financial assets (except for a derivative that is a designated and effective hedging instrument (see Note 2.15). On initial recognition, the Group and the Company may irrevocably designate a financial asset which may otherwise have met requirements of amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income as at fair value through profit or loss if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces an accounting mismatch that would otherwise arise. Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income are equity securities which are not held for trading but more for strategic investments or debt securities where contractual cash flows are solely principal and interest and the objective of the Group's business model is achieved both by collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets. The classification as financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income is an irrevocable election made on initial recognition. Amortised costs Financial assets classified as amortised costs are assets with contractual cash flows and contractual terms to give rise to the cashflows that are solely payments of principal and interest on principal outstanding. They were included in current assets, except for maturities greater than 12 months after the end of the reporting period. These were classified as non-current assets. The Group’s financial assets at amortised costs comprise ‘receivables’, ‘amounts due from associates and related parties’, 'deposits on aircraft purchase' and ‘deposits, cash and bank balances’ in the statements of financial position. 2.12.2 Recognition and initial measurement A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised in the statement of financial position when, and only when, the Group or the Company become a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. A financial asset (unless it is a trade receivable without significant financing component) or a financial liability is initially measured at fair value plus or minus, for an item not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to its acquisition or issuance. A trade receivable without a significant financing component is initially measured at the transaction price.
