NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

31 MARCH 2018

fInanCIal StatementS

2.

Significant accounting policies (cont’d.)

2.4 Significant accounting estimate and judgement (cont’d.)

Key sources of estimation uncertainty

The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that

have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next

financial year are discussed below:

(i)

Classification between investment properties and property, plant and equipment

The Group developed certain criteria in making judgement whether a property qualifies as an investment property.

Investment property is a property held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation or both.

Some properties comprise a portion that is held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation and another portion

that is held for use in the production or supply of goods or services or for administrative purposes. If these

portions could be sold separately (or leased out separately under a finance lease), the Group would account for the

portions separately. If the portions could not be sold separately, the property is an investment property only if an

insignificant portion is held for use in the production or supply of goods or services or for administrative purposes.

Judgement is made on an individual property basis to determine whether ancillary services are so significant that

a property does not qualify as investment property.

The Group has sub-let portion of a building but has decided to classify the entire building as property, plant and

equipment as this portion cannot be sold separately and significant portion of the building is held for use in the

production or supply of goods or services or for administrative purposes.

(ii) Impairment of goodwill

Goodwill is tested for impairment annually and at other times when such indicators exist. This requires an estimation

of the value-in-use of the CGU to which goodwill is allocated. Estimating a value-in-use requires management to

make an estimate of the expected future cash flows from the CGU and also to choose a suitable discount rate in

order to calculate the present value of those cash flows. The carrying amount of goodwill as at 31 March 2018 was

RM12,710,000 (2017: RM12,710,000). Further details are disclosed in Note 18.

(iii) Provision for warranty

Provision for warranty is based on current volumes of products sold still under warranty and on historic quality

rates as well as estimates and assumptions regarding future quality rates for new products.

Total Group’s provisions for warranty as of 31 March 2018 is RM9,961,000 (2017: RM14,827,000), as disclosed in

Note 33.
