168 FRASER & NEAVE HOLDINGS BHD 196101000155 (4205-V) Notes to The Financial Statements (Cont’d.) 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) (E) LEASES (CONTINUED) Previous financial year (continued) As a lessee (continued) (ii) Operating lease Leases, where the Group did not assume substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership were classified as operating leases and the leased assets were not recognised on the statement of financial position. Payments made under operating leases were recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Lease incentives received were recognised in profit or loss as an integral part of the total lease expense, over the term of the lease. Contingent rentals were charged to profit or loss in the reporting period in which they were incurred. (F) INTANGIBLE ASSETS (i) Goodwill Goodwill arising on business combinations is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. In respect of equity-accounted associate and joint venture, the carrying amount of goodwill is included in the carrying amount of the investment and an impairment loss on such an investment is not allocated to any asset, including goodwill, that forms part of the carrying amount of the equity-accounted associate and joint venture. (ii) Brand Brand was stated at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. The useful life of the brand was estimated to be indefinite because based on the current market share of the brand, management believed there was no foreseeable limit to the period over which the brand was expected to generate net cash flows to the Group. Gains or losses arising from derecognition of a brand were measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the brand and were recognised in the profit or loss when the brand was derecognised. (iii) Computer software Customised computer software and computer software license that is not integral to the functionality of the related equipment is recognised as an intangible asset, stated at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. (iv) Subsequent expenditure Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which it relates. All other expenditure, including expenditure on internally generated goodwill and brands, is recognised in profit or loss as incurred. (v) Amortisation Goodwill and brand with indefinite useful lives are not amortised but are tested for impairment annually and whenever there is an indication that they may be impaired. Computer software and computer software license are amortised from the date that they are available for use. Amortisation is based on the cost of an asset less its residual value. Amortisation is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of intangible assets. The estimated useful lives of computer software and computer software license for the current and comparative periods are between 2 to 10 years. Amortisation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.
