Accounting policies

Rekeningkundige beleid

1. OPSTELLINGSGRONDSLAG EN OPSOMMING

VAN BEDUIDENDE REKENINGKUNDIGE BELEID

D

ie finansiële state is ooreenkomstig die International Financial

Reporting Standard for Small and Medium-sized Entities opgestel.

Die finansiële state is op die historiese kostegrondslag opgestel.

Dit word in Suid-Afrikaanse rand aangebied.

Graan SA is ’n organisasie geïnkorporeer in Suid-Afrika. Graan SA is

’n organisasie wat funksioneer ter bevordering van die belange van

graanprodusente binne Suid-Afrika. Die geregistreerde kantoor is

Blok C, Alenti Office Park, Witheritelaan 457, The Willows, Pretoria.

Hierdie rekeningkundige beleid stem ooreen met die vorige tydperk.

1.1 Beduidende oordeel en bronne van ramingsonsekerheid

BELANGRIKE OORDEEL IN DIE TOEPASSING

VAN REKENINGKUNDIGE BELEID

Daar word van bestuur vereis om van tyd tot tyd kritiese besluite te

neem in die toepassing van die rekeningkundige beleid. Die oordele,

afgesien van dié met betrekking tot ramings wat die mees beduidende

uitwerking het op die bedrae wat in die finansiële state erken word,

word soos volg uiteengesit:

SLEUTELBRONNE VAN RAMINGSONSEKERHEID

Koste teenoor voordeel

Die Hoofbestuur is van mening dat weens die feit dat daar geen

beduidende belanghebbendes in die organisasie is wat baat sal vind

uit die billike waarde van die beleggingseiendom nie, sal die verkryging

van jaarlikse waardasies vir elke eiendom, ’n buitensporige koste tot

gevolg hê (deur middel van fooie vir die waardeerder) in vergelyking met

die voordele wat die gebruikers van hierdie finansiële state sou ontvang

vanuit die inligting.

Die Hoofbestuur het dus die koste teenoor voordeel beginsel toegepas

ten opsigte van beleggingseiendomme. Gevolglik is beleggingseiendom

na eiendom, aanleg en toerusting oorgedra en is dit volgens die

toepaslike rekeningkundige beleid soos uiteengesit in aantekening 1.3.

1.2 Beleggingseiendom

Beleggingseiendom is grond en geboue wat gehou word om huurinkomste

te verdien of vir kapitaalgroei of beide, eerder as vir gebruik in die produk-

sie of verskaffing van goedere of dienste of vir administratiewe doeleindes,

óf vir verkoop in die gewone gang van sake.

Beleggingseiendom word aanvanklik teen kosprys gemeet en daarna

teen billike waarde met veranderings in billike waarde wat in wins of

verlies erken word. Indien die billike waarde van beleggingseiendom

nie betroubaar gemeet kan word sonder onnodige koste, word dit as

eiendom, aanleg en toerusting gedra teen kosprys minus opgehoopte

depresiasie en opgehoopte waardedaling gemeet.

1.3 Eiendom, aanleg en toerusting

Eiendom, aanleg en toerusting is tasbare bates wat die organisasie hou

vir eie gebruik of vir verhuring aan ander en wat na verwagting vir meer

as een tydperk gebruik sal word.

’n Item van eiendom, aanleg en toerusting word as ’n bate erken

wanneer dit waarskynlik is dat toekomstige ekonomiese voordele wat

verband hou aan die item na die organisasie sal vloei en die koste van

die item betroubaar gemeet kan word.

1. BASIS OF PREPARATION AND SUMMARY

OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

T

he financial statements have been prepared on a going concern

basis in accordance with the International Financial Reporting

Standard for Small and Medium-sized Entities. The financial state-

ments have been prepared on the historical cost basis and incorporate

the principal accounting policies set out below. They are presented in

South African rand.

Grain SA is an organisation incorporated in South Africa. Grain SA is an

organisation that functions to promote the interests of grain producers

within South Africa. The registered office is Block C, Alenti Office Park,

457 Witherite Avenue, The Willows, Pretoria.

These accounting policies are consistent with the previous period.

1.1 Significant judgements and sources

of estimation uncertainty

CRITICAL JUDGEMENTS IN APPLYING ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Management did not make critical judgements in the application of ac-

counting policies, apart from those involving estimations, which would

significantly affect the financial statements.

The following are the key assumptions concerning the future, and

other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the report-

ing period, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjust-

ment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next

financial year:

KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY

Undue cost or effort

The Executive believes that due to the fact that there are no significant

stakeholders in the organisation to whom the fair value of the investment

property will benefit, that obtaining annual valuations for each property,

would result in excessive costs (through valuers' fees) in comparison to

the benefits that the users of these financials would receive from having

the information.

The Executive has therefore applied the undue cost or effort exemp-

tion in respect of the organisation's investment properties. As a result,

investment property has been transferred to property, plant and equip-

ment and is accounted for in terms of the relevant accounting policy

as set out in note 1.3.

1.2 Investment property

Investment property is land and buildings held to earn rentals or for

capital appreciation or both, rather than for use in the production or

supply of goods or services or for administrative purposes; or for sale in

the ordinary course of business.

Investment property is initially measured at cost and subsequently at

fair value with changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss. If the

fair value of investment property cannot be measured reliably without

undue cost or effort, then it is measured at cost less accumulated de-

preciation and accumulated impairment.

1.3 Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are tangible assets which the organisa-

tion holds for its own use or for rental to others and which are expected

to be used for more than one period.
