n. Inventories All inventories except stores, spares, consumables, semi-fi nished goods and packaging material, are valued at lower of cost and net realisable value. Stores, spares and consumables, semi-fi nished goods and packing material held for use in the production of fi nished products are not written down below cost except in cases where material prices have declined and it is estimated that the cost of the fi nished products will exceed their net realisable value. Costs for all categories of inventories have been ascertained using weighted average cost method. Cost of inventories comprises of the following: Raw material, stock-in-trade, semi-fi nished goods, packaging materials and stores, spares and consumables: Cost includes purchase price, import duties and other taxes excluding taxes those are subsequently recoverable from the concerned authorities, freight inwards and other expenditure incurred in bringing such inventories to their present location and condition. Finished goods and work in progress: Cost comprises cost of direct material, direct labour and appropriate proportion of variable and fi xed overhead expenditure, the latter being allocated on the basis of normal operating capacity, but excluding borrowing costs. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. o. Impairment of non-financial assets The Group assesses, at each reporting date, whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Group estimates the asset’s recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s or cash-generating unit’s (CGU) fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. Recoverable amount is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash infl ows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets. Value in use is based on the estimated future cash fl ows, discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that refl ects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specifi c to the asset or CGU. When the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount. Impairment losses of continuing operations, including impairment on inventories, are recognised in the consolidated statement of profi t and loss. For assets excluding goodwill, an assessment is made at each reporting date to determine whether there is an indication that previously recognised impairment losses no longer exist or have decreased. If such indication exists, the Group estimates the asset’s or CGU’s recoverable amount. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the assumptions used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. The reversal is limited so that the carrying amount of the asset does not exceed its recoverable amount, nor exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. p. Provision and contingencies Provisions Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outfl ow of resources embodying economic benefi ts will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. When the Group expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset, but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to a provision is presented in the consolidated statement of profi t and loss net of any reimbursement. If the eff ect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pretax rate that refl ects, when appropriate, the risks specifi c to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a fi nance cost. Contingencies Contingent liabilities is identifi ed and disclosed with respect to following: a possible obligation that arises from past events and whose existence will be confi rmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the entity; or Heritage Foods Limited | 31st Annual report 2022-23 264
