3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) (e) Associates (continued) If the ownership interest in an associate is reduced but significant influence is retained, only a proportionate share of the amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income is reclassified to profit or loss where appropriate. Dilution gains and losses arising in investments in associates are recognised in profit or loss. In the Company’s financial statements, investments in associates are shown at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Where an indication of impairment exists, the carrying amount of the investments in associates is assessed and written down immediately to its recoverable amount (Note 3(h)). On disposal of the associates, the difference between net disposal proceeds and its carrying amount is charged/credited to profit or loss. (f) Joint arrangements A joint arrangement is an arrangement of which there is contractually agreed sharing of control by the Group with one or more parties, where decisions about the relevant activities relating to the joint arrangement require unanimous consent of the parties sharing control. The classification of a joint arrangement as a joint operation or a joint venture depends upon the rights and obligations of the parties to the arrangement. A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the joint venturers have rights to the net assets of the arrangement. A joint operation is a joint arrangement whereby the joint operators have rights to the assets and obligations for the liabilities, relating to the arrangement. Joint ventures The Group’s interests in joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method, after initially being recognised at cost in the consolidated statement of financial position. Under the equity method, the investment in a joint venture is initially recognised at cost, and adjusted thereafter to recognise the Group’s share of the post-acquisition profits or losses of the joint venture in profit or loss, and the Group’s share of movements in other comprehensive income of the joint venture in other comprehensive income. Dividends received or receivable from a joint venture are recognised as a reduction in the carrying amount of the investment. When the Group’s share of losses in a joint venture equals or exceeds its interests in the joint ventures, including any long-term interests that, in substance, form part of the Group’s net investment in the joint ventures, the Group does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the joint ventures. Unrealised gains on transactions between the Group and its joint ventures are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest in the joint ventures. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. Joint operations In relation to the Group’s interest in joint operations, the Group recognises its assets (including its share of any assets held jointly), liabilities (including its share of any liabilities incurred jointly), revenue from the sale of its share of the output arising from the joint operation (including share of the revenue from the sale of the output by the joint operation) and expenses (including its share of any expenses incurred jointly). Where necessary, appropriate adjustments are made to the joint arrangements’ financial statements to ensure consistency with the Group’s accounting policies. In the Company’s financial statements, investments in joint arrangements are shown at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Where an indication of impairment exists, the carrying amount of the investment is assessed and written down immediately to its recoverable amount (Note 3(h)). On disposal of a joint arrangement, the difference between net disposal proceeds and its carrying amount is charged/ credited to profit or loss. 32 Notes to the Financial Statements For The Financial Year Ended 31 December 2020 FGV HOLDINGS BERHAD Audited Financial Statement 2020
