c) Use of estimates and judgments

The preparation of the financial statements requires the Manager to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the reporting date. However, uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that could require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of the asset or liability affected in the future.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an on-going basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.

Note 1.2(d) - InvestmentsNote 1.2(e) - Revenue recognition

d) Investments

Investments are classified into the following categories: trading, held-to-maturity, loans and receivablesand available-for-sale financial assets. The classification is dependent on the purpose for which the investments are acquired. The Manager determines the classification of investments at the time of thepurchase and re-evaluates such designation at each reporting date.

(i) Trading investments

Investments that are acquired principally for the purposes of generating a profit from short-term fluctuations in price are classified as trading investments. Trading investments are carriedat fair value. Realised and unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of trading investments are included in the statement of comprehensive income in the period inwhich they arise. During the year, the Trust did not hold any investments in this category.

(ii) Held-to-maturity investments

Held-to-maturity investments are non derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturities that the Trust's Manager has the positive intention and abilityto hold to maturity.

(iii) Available-for-sale financial assets

Available-for-sale financial assets are non derivatives financial assets that are either designatedin this category or not classified in any of the other categories.

Purchases and sales of investments are recognised on trade-date - the date on which the Trustcommits to purchase or sell the asset. Investments are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs for all financial assets. Loans and receivables and held-to-maturity investmentsare carried at amortised costs using the effective interest method.

Unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of non-monetary investmentsclassified as available-for-sale financial assets are recognised in other comprehensive income and presented in the fair value reserve in equity. When available-for-sale financial assets are derecognised or impaired, the accumulated fair value adjustments are included in the incomestatement as gains or losses.

The fair values of quoted investments are based on current market prices. Other unlisted equities are valued by independent valuers approved by the Manager and Trustee as per the Trust Deed.

Fair value in an inactive or unquoted market

The fair value of financial assets that are not traded in an active market is determined using valuation techniques. These include the use of recent arm's length market transactions, referenceto the current fair value of a substantially similar other instrument, discounted cash flow techniques or any other valuation technique that provides a reliable estimate of prices obtainedin actual market transactions.

FIJIAN HOLDINGS UNIT TRUSTNotes to the Financial Statements - continuedFOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2014

FHUT | Annual Report 201424

Where discounted cash flow techniques are used, estimated future cash flows are based on manager'sbest estimates and the discount rate used is a market rate at the balance date applicable for an instrumentwith similar terms and conditions.

For other pricing models, inputs are based on market data such as their quoted market prices at the end of the reporting period without any deduction for estimated future selling costs at the balance date. Fair values for unquoted equity investments are estimated, if possible, using applicable pricing/earnings ratios for similar listed companies adjusted to reflect the specific circumstances of the issuer.

Investments in other unlisted unit trusts are recorded at the redemption value per unit as reported bythe manager of such trusts.

The Manager with the endorsement of the Trustee assesses at balance date whether there is objectiveevidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. In the case of equity securitiesclassified as available-for-sale, significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the security below its cost is considered in determining whether the securities are impaired.

If such evidence exists for available-for-sale financial assets, the cumulative loss - measured as the difference between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, less any impairment loss on that financial asset previously recognised in profit or loss - is removed from reserves and recognised in thestatement of comprehensive income.

(iv) Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are recognised at recoverable amount, after assessing required provisions for impairment. Impairment of a loan is recognised when there is reasonable doubt that not all the principaland interest can be collected in accordance with the terms of the loan agreement.

Impairment is assessed by specific identification in relation to individual loans and estimation of expected losses in relation to loan portfolios where specific identification is impracticable. Bad debtsare written off when identified. If an allowance for impairment has been recognised in relation to a loan, write-offs for bad debts are made against the allowance. If no allowance for impairment has previously been recognised, write-offs for bad debts are recognised as expenses in the statement of comprehensive income.

e) Revenue recognition

Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Trustand revenue can be reliably measured. Amounts disclosed as operating revenue are net of sales discounts,duties and taxes. Revenue is measured at the fair value for the consideration received or receivable.

Dividend income from listed or quoted entities is recognised when a market announcement is made.Dividend income from private equities is recognised on a receipt basis.

f) Distributions

In accordance with the Trust Deed, the Trust may distribute, by cash or reinvestment, all distributableincome to unit holders. Distributable income is the Manager's estimate, with the Trustee's approval,of the amount the Trustee may distribute, not exceeding the net income of the Trust for an accrual period.
