GOLDEN WEB LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2011 1. REPORTING ENTITY Golden Web Limited is a company registered and domiciled in Kumasi, Ghana and listed on the Stock Exchange. The company is authorized to process vegetable oilseeds into oils and oil cakes for sale locally and for exports. There was no change in its activities during the year. 2. BASIS OF PREPARATION a. Statement of Compliance The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and its interpretation adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board. (IASB). The accounting policies set out below have been consistently applied to all periods presented in these financial statements b. Functional and Presentation Currency These financial statements are presented in Ghana Cedi, which is the Company's functional currency. All figures have been rounded to the nearest Ghana Cedi. c. Basis of Measurement These financial statements are prepared on the historical cost basis except for property, plant & equipment which is stated at fair value or revaluation amount. The resulting adjustment has been credited to equity. d. Use of Estimates and Judgments The preparation of financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and income and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised, if the revision affects only the period, or in the period of the revision and future periods, if the revision affects both current and future periods. 8
3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The accounting policies set our below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these financial statements. Management of Golden Web Limited considers the following as the most important accounting policies for the company. a. Revenue Revenue represents receipts from sales of the Company's products, which are processed vegetable oilseeds, in the normal course of the Company's business and it is stated net of value added tax. Sales are recognized when the risks and rewards to the products have been substantially transferred to the customer. b. Property, Plant and Equipment All property, plant & equipment are initially recorded at cost. Land and buildings and plant & machinery subsequently shown at market value based on valuation by external independent value s less subsequent depreciation. An increase in the carrying amount arising on valuation is credited to a capital surplus account. Decreases that offset previous increases of the same asset are charged against the capital surplus account; all others decreases as are charged to the income statement. Subsequent cost are included in the asset's carrying amount or are recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits are associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the income statement during the financial period in which they are incurred. Depreciation ion is calculated on a straight-line basis to write off the cost/fair value of property, and equipment over their estimated economic useful lives as follows: Land & Buildings 10% Plant & Machinery 10% Motor Vehicles 20% Office Furniture & Equipments 20% The assets residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at balance sheet date. Assets that are subject to depreciation are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the' carrying. Amount may not be recoverable. An asset s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset's carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of the asset's fair value less costs to sell and value in use. Gains and loss on disposal are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount. These are treated in the income statement. 9
c. Financial Assets i Inventories Inventories of raw materials; and spare parts are valued at cost after making adequate provision for damaged and obsolete items. Costs comprise the cost of purchase and other incidental costs. Inventories of finished goods are valued at selling price. Trade Receivables Trade receivables are initially recognized at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost less any provision for impairment. A write off or provision for impairment is made on a case by case basis and when there is evidence that the amount due will not be fully recovered at the original cost. iii Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalent include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, and banker drafts. Bank overdrafts are shown separately under current liabilities on the balance sheet. iv Income Tax Current tax assets and liabilities for the current periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rate and tax laws used to compute the amount are those enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. Financial Liabilities d ii Trade Payables Trade payables are initially recognized at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost. Bank Borrowings Interest bearing loans and overdrafts are recovered at the amortized amount. Finance charges paid or payable on the borrowings are accounted for on an accrual basis in the income statement. iii Provision Provisions are recognized when a present legal or constructive obligation exists as a result of past events, where it is more likely than not that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount can be reliably measured. e. Borrowing Costs Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition and installation of machinery Equipment are capitalised and included in the cost of the machinery & equipment. Capitalization ceases when installation of the machinery & equipment is completed and the machinery becomes operational. All other finance charges are payable on borrowings, including leasing and overdrafts facilities, are accounted for on an accrual basis in the income statement. 10
f. Foreign Currency Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency of the Company at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date are retranslated into the functional retranslation are recognized in the income statement. g. Post Balance Sheet Events Events subsequent to the balance sheet date are reflected only to the extent that they are related directly to the financial statements and the effect is materials. h. Contingent Liabilities Contingent liabilities are potential liabilities that arise from events, the existence of which will be confirmed only on the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events which are not wholly within the control of the company. Provisions for liabilities are recorded when a loss is considered probable and can be reasonably estimated. The determination of whether or not a provision should be recorded for any potential liabilities is based on management s judgment. 11
