1.2 Changes in accounting policies and

in presentation

Adopted changes in accounting policies

The adoption of new and revised standards had

no effect on the consolidated financial state-

ments 2015.

Future changes in accounting policies

The following new and revised standards and

interpretations have been issued, but are not yet

effective. They have not been applied early

in these consolidated financial statements. How-

ever, a preliminary assessment has been con-

ducted by Group Management, and the expected

impact of each standard and interpretation is

presented in the table below.

IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments” includes

revised guidance on the classification and meas-

urement of financial assets and financial liabili-

ties, including a new expected credit loss model

for calculating impairment, and supplements

the new general hedge accounting requirements

published in 2013. It also carries forward the

guidance on recognition and derecognition of

financial instruments from IAS 39. The Group

is yet to assess IFRS 9’s full impact.

IFRS 15 establishes a comprehensive framework

for determining whether, how much and

when revenue is recognized based on a five-step

approach. Under IFRS 15, an entity recognizes

revenue when control of the promised goods and

services is transferred to the customer at an

amount that reflects the consideration to which

the entity expects to be entitled. It replaces

existing revenue recognition guidance, including

IAS 18, IAS 11 and IFRIC 13.

IFRS 16 “Leases” brings most leases on the

balance sheet for lessees under a single model,

eliminating the distinction between operating and

finance leases. For lessors, however, the account-

ing remains largely unchanged. Under IFRS 16, a

lessee recognizes a right-of-use asset and a lease

liability. The right-of-use asset is treated similarly

to other non-financial assets and depreciated

accordingly. The lease liability is initially measured

at the present value of the lease payments

payable over the lease term, discounted at the

rate implicit in the lease if this rate can be

readily determined. If the rate cannot be readily

determined, the lessee’s incremental borrowing

rate should be used. IFRS 16 supersedes IAS 17

“Leases” and related interpretations.
