These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated. (continued) (i) Financial liabilities (continued) Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the statement of financial position date. Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. Foreign exchange differences are capitalised to the extent of the capitalisation of the related borrowing costs. All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred. Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down. In this case, the fee is deferred until the draw-down occurs. To the extent there is no evidence that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down, the fee is capitalised as a pre-payment for liquidity services and amortised over the period of the facility to which it relates. A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is extinguished. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially difference terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability, and the difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in profit or loss. (j) Property, plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment are initially stated at cost. All property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment initially recognised includes its purchase price and any cost that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. Cost also includes borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset. See significant accounting policies Note 3(i) on borrowing costs. To the extent a legal or constructive obligation to a third party exists, the acquisition cost includes estimated cost of dismantling and removing the assets and restoring the site. Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the costs of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of replaced parts are derecognised. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to profit or loss during the financial period in which they are incurred. Major spare parts, stand-by equipment and servicing equipment are classified as property, plant and equipment rather than inventory when they are expected to be used during more than one period. Freehold land is not depreciated as it has an infinite life. Spare parts or servicing equipment recognised as property, plant and equipment would be depreciated over a period that does not exceed the useful life of the assets to which they relate. All property, plant and equipment are depreciated on a straight line basis to write off the cost of each asset to their residual values over their estimated useful lives as follows:
