The cost of new buildings and erection by the company of its own technical installations and machinery includes the cost of materials, direct wages and a share of indirect costs. Tangible fixed assets are written off on a straight-line basis over the expected useful lives of the assets, which are expected to be as follows: Buildings . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 30 years Installations . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 10 years Technical plant and machinery . . . 3-10 years Other fixtures and fittings, tools and equipment . . . . . . . . . . . 3-10 years Writedowns are made on tangible fixed assets whose utility value is believed permanently to be much lower than the book value based on the above periods of depreciation. Writedowns are charged to the profit and loss account under the same items as the associated depreciation. Acquisitions at a cost not exceeding DKK 50,000 per unit are charged to the profit and loss account in the year of acquisition. Gains or losses on the disposal or scrapping of tangible fixed assets are calculated as the difference between book value and sales price reduced by dismantling and sales costs. Gains and losses are included in the profit and loss account under the same items as the associated depreciation. Financial fixed assets Shareholdings in subsidiaries are stated in the parent companys accounts according to the equity method. This means that the shareholdings are included in the balance sheet at the parent companys proportional share of the companies equity value plus Group goodwill. The parent companys share of the companies results after deduction of unrealised intercompany gains and losses and after deduction of write-off on Group goodwill is included in the parent companys profit and loss account as the result of participating interests before tax and as the tax of the results, respectively. The net revaluation of shareholdings in subsidiaries is taken to the reserve for net revaluation according to the equity method under capital and reserves to the extent that the net revaluation exceeds the dividends declared by the companies. Other shareholdings and receivables are valued at cost less writedown as a result of a significant diminution in value. The cost of shares denominated in foreign currencies is translated at the exchange rate ruling on the balance sheet date. Exchange rate adjustments are included in the profit and loss account as financial items. Stocks Raw materials, packaging and goods for resale are valued at the latest known cost at the balance sheet date, which approximates cost computed according to the FIFO principle. Work in progress and goods produced by the company are valued at cost, ie the cost of materials, direct wages and a share of indirect production costs, including the cost of operating and depreciating manufacturing facilities. Writedown to net realisable value is made if lower than the purchase price or production cost, respectively. Receivables Receivables are stated at nominal value less writedowns to counter the risk of loss calculated on the basis of an individual evaluation. Securities Securities shown as current assets are valued at the stock market price ruling at the balance sheet date. Both realised and unrealised capital gains and losses are included in the profit and loss account under financial items. Debt Mortgage debt and other debt where there is a difference between the nominal value and the market value are valued at the stock market price ruling at the balance sheet date or market value. Other debt liabilities are stated at the nominal value. Guarantee commitments No provision is made to cover return obligations imposed on the industry as these are not found to be of material importance to the accounts. Statement of sources and application of funds The consolidated cash flow statement is presented according to the indirect method and shows the composition of the Groups cash flow, divided into operating, investing and financing activities, respectively, and the Groups cash at the beginning and end of the year. Cash flow from operating activities is calculated as the Groups results before financial items adjusted for non-cash operating items, any change in the operating capital, financial and extraordinary items paid and corporation taxes paid. Cash flow from investing activities includes payments in connection with purchases and sales of fixed assets. Cash flow from financing activities includes payments to and from shareholders and the raising of and repayments of mortgage debt and other long-term debt. Cash includes liquid funds. Liquid funds also include securities shown as current assets in the balance sheet. They are exclusively Danish listed bonds. Despite the fact that they involve a risk of price changes, these bonds are included in cash because they actually function as liquid funds due to the special liquid nature of the Danish exchange market. Cash flow denominated in foreign currencies, including cash flow in foreign subsidiaries, are translated at the average exchange rates ruling during the year, because they essentially reflect the rate ruling at the date of payment. Cash at year-end is translated at the rate ruling at the balance sheet date, and the effect of exchange rate adjustments on cash is shown as a separate item in the cash flow statement. 53
