7.2 Deferred taxation
Deferred taxation is provided using the liability method for all temporary differences arising between the tax bases
of assets and liabilities and their carrying values for financial reporting purposes.
However, if the deferred income tax arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than
a business combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss,
it is not accounted for. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or
substantively enacted by year-end and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realised
or the deferred income tax liability is settled.
Critical accounting estimates and assumptions
Deferred income tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available
against which the temporary differences can be utilised. Deferred income tax is provided on temporary differences
arising on investments in subsidiaries and associates, except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary
difference is controlled by the Group and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the
foreseeable future.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax
assets against current tax liabilities and when the deferred income tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes
levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where there is
an intention to settle the balances on a net basis.
