2011 Annual Report
2.13 Property, plant and equipment All property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items, including an initial estimate of the costs of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located, when the entity has the obligation to do so. 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 cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the income statement during the financial period in which they are incurred. Land is not depreciated. Depreciation on other assets is calculated on the straight-line method of depreciation to allocate their cost to their residual values over their estimated useful lives, as follows: Leasehold improvement Building and fitting equipment Building improvement Machinery and equipment Furniture, fixtures and office equipment Other equipment Motor vehicles
lease period, 5 years, 20 years and 30 years lease period, 5 years, 10 years, 20 years, 30 years and 40 years lease period and 10 years 5 - 15 years 4 years, 5 years, 10 years and 15 years 4 years, 5 years and 10 years 4 - 5 years
The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period. The asset’s carrying amount is written-down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount. Hotel operating equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Additions are recorded as hotel operating equipment and expensed on issue or use. Operating equipment and kitchen supplies for restaurant operations are recorded at cost upon purchases and are depreciated on first issue or use. The depreciation is calculated on the straight-line method with the estimated useful life of 5 years. When new items are issued to replace the operating equipment, the replacement cost of operating equipment and kitchen supplies are recognised as expense when issued. When existing outlets are re-modernised, the related expenditures will be capitalised as buildings improvements or leasehold improvements and will be depreciated using the straight-line method over the shorter of the remaining lease term and the estimated useful life of 3 - 7 years.
