1 The fair value of hire purchase and finance lease liabilities is estimated as <strong>the</strong> present value of future cash flows, discounted at market<br />

interest rates for homogeneous lease agreements. The estimated fair value reflects change in interest rate. The carrying amount of<br />

hire purchase and finance lease liabilities closely approximates <strong>the</strong> fair value since <strong>the</strong> market interest rate as at <strong>the</strong> reporting date<br />

closely approximates <strong>the</strong> effective interest rate implicit in <strong>the</strong> hire purchase and finance lease.<br />

The following methods and assumptions are used <strong>to</strong> estimate fair values of <strong>the</strong> following significant classes of <strong>financial</strong><br />

instruments not included above:<br />

Cash and cash equivalents, trade and o<strong>the</strong>r receivables, trade and o<strong>the</strong>r payables<br />

The carrying amounts approximate <strong>the</strong> fair values due <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> relatively short-term nature of <strong>the</strong>se <strong>financial</strong> instruments.<br />

Investment in equity securities<br />

The fair value of available-for-sale <strong>financial</strong> assets is determined by reference <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong>ir quoted bid price at <strong>the</strong> reporting date.<br />

Floating interest rate bank loans and loan <strong>to</strong> subsidiaries<br />

The carrying amounts of <strong>the</strong>se floating interest-bearing loans, which are repriced within six months interval, reflect <strong>the</strong><br />

corresponding fair values.<br />

Interest rates used in determining fair values<br />

The interest rates used <strong>to</strong> discount estimated cash flows, where applicable, are based on <strong>the</strong> loan rates plus adequate credit<br />

spread or actual average cost of debt, whichever is higher:<br />
