14. INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Accounting Policy
Patents and trademarks
Patents and trademarks have a finite life and are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any impairment
losses.
Research and development
Expenditure on research activities is recognised as an expense in the period in which is incurred.
Estimation of useful lives of assets
The Group determines the estimated useful lives and related depreciation and amortisation charges for its property, plant and
equipment. The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting
period. An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is
greater than its estimated recoverable amount.
