Transactions and Balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional
currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the
transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from
the settlement of such transactions and from the translation
at period-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities
denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the
statement of prot and loss and other comprehensive income,
except when they are deferred in equity as qualifying cash ow
hedges and qualifying net investment hedges or are attributable
to part of the net investment in a foreign operation.
Foreign exchange gains and losses that relate to borrowings are
presented in the statement of comprehensive income, within
nance costs. All other foreign exchange gains and losses are
presented in the statement of prot or loss on a net basis within
other income or other expenses.
Non-monetary items that are measured at fair value in a foreign
currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date
when the fair value was determined. Transaction differences on
assets and liabilities carried at fair value are reported as part of
the fair value gain or loss.
Group companies
On consolidation, the assets and liabilities of foreign operations
are translated into Australian dollars at the rate of exchange
prevailing at the reporting date and their statements of prot or
loss are translated at exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the
transactions. The exchange differences arising on translation for
consolidation purposes are recognised in other comprehensive
income. On disposal of a foreign operation, the component of
other comprehensive income relating to that particular foreign
operation is recognised in prot or loss.
Any goodwill arising on the acquisition of a foreign operation
and any fair value adjustments to the carrying amounts of assets
and liabilities arising on the acquisition are treated as assets and
liabilities of the foreign operation and translated at the spot rate
of exchange at the reporting date.

the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision
maker. The chief operating decision maker, who is responsible for
