39. Fair values of financial instruments (cont’d)<br />

(a) Fair value of financial instruments that are carried at fair value (cont’d)<br />
Impact of changes to key assumptions on fair value of Level 3 financial instruments<br />
The following table shows the impact on fair value of Level 3 financial instruments by using reasonably possible alternative<br />
assumptions:<br />

- Equity instrument (unquoted) 17,718 573 (562) (283) 302<br />
For unquoted equity instruments, the fair value had been determined using a valuation technique based on assumptions<br />
of future tin price and discount rate. The valuation requires management to make estimates about expected future cash<br />
flows of the shares which are discounted at current market rates. The Group and the Company adjusted the future tin<br />
price and discount rate by 1% and 0.5% respectively from management’s estimates, which are considered by the Group<br />
to be within a range of reasonably possible alternatives.<br />
(b) Fair value of financial instruments by classes that are not carried at fair value and whose carrying amounts are<br />
reasonable approximation of fair value<br />
The following are classes of financial instruments whose carrying amounts are reasonable approximation of fair value:<br />
Trade and other receivables (non-current) 24<br />
Trade and other receivables (current) 24<br />
Trade and other payables (current) 29<br />
Borrowings (current) 28<br />
Borrowings (non-current) 28<br />
The carrying amounts of these financial assets and liabilities are reasonable approximation of fair values, either due to<br />
their short-term nature or that they are floating rate instruments that are re-priced to market interest rates on or near the<br />
reporting date.<br />
The carrying amounts of the non-current portion of borrowings are reasonable approximation of fair values due to the<br />
insignificant impact of discounting.<br />
