2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies<br />
Basis of Preparation<br />
The accompanying financial statements of the Parent Company have been prepared on a historical<br />
cost basis. The Parent Company’s financial statements are presented in Philippine peso, the<br />
Parent Company’s functional and presentation currency, and all values are rounded to the nearest<br />
peso except when otherwise indicated.<br />
Statement of Compliance<br />
The accompanying financial statements of the Parent Company have been prepared in compliance<br />
with Philippine Financial Reporting Standards (PFRS).<br />
Changes in Accounting Policies<br />
The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the parent company financial statements are<br />
consistent with those of the previous financial year except for the adoption of the following new<br />
and amended PFRS, Philippine Accounting Standards (PAS) and Philippine Interpretations which<br />
became effective on January 1, <strong>20</strong>11.<br />
• PAS 24 Amendment, Related Party Disclosures<br />
• PAS 32 Amendment, Financial Instruments: Presentation - Classification of Rights Issues<br />
• Philippine Interpretation International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC)<br />
14 Amendment, Prepayments of a Minimum Funding Requirement<br />
• Philippine Interpretation IFRIC 19, Extinguishing Financial Liabilities with Equity<br />
Instruments<br />
The adoption of new standards, amendments and interpretations above did not have impact to the<br />
Parent Company except for the adoption of PAS 24 Amendment, Related Party Transactions.<br />
PAS 24 Amendment, Related Party Transactions<br />
PAS 24 clarifies the definitions of a related party. The new definitions emphasize a symmetrical<br />
view of related party relationships and clarify the circumstances in which persons and key<br />
management personnel affect related party relationships of an entity. In addition, the amendment<br />
introduces an exemption from the general related party disclosure requirements for transactions<br />
with government and entities that are controlled, jointly controlled or significantly influenced by<br />
the same government as the reporting entity. The amendment only affects the disclosures and has<br />
no impact on the Parent Company’s financial position or performance.<br />
Improvements to PFRS <strong>20</strong>10<br />
The omnibus amendments to PFRSs were issued in <strong>20</strong>10 primarily with a view to remove<br />
inconsistencies and clarify wording. There are separate transitional provisions for each standard.<br />
