Finance costs/income are recognised in profit and loss using the effective interest rate method as the instruments to which this relates are measured at amortised cost. Where the core business of a Group subsidiary is providing finance to its customers, the interest earned from these customers is recognised as revenue and the related interest incurred is recognised in changes in inventories of finished goods in the income statement. In all other scenarios, interest is recognised as a finance income or finance expense below operating profit.
