FINANCIAL STATEMENT & OTHER INFORMATION 164 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 31 DECEMBER 2024 Al-`Aqar Healthcare REIT | Annual Report 2024 2. BASIS OF PREPARATION AND MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D.) 2.4 Material accounting policies (cont’d.) (b) Functional currency (cont’d.) (ii) Consolidated financial statement For consolidation purposes, the assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into RM at the rate of exchange ruling at the end of the reporting period and their profit or loss are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the date of transactions. The exchange differences arising on the translation are recognised in other comprehensive income. On disposal of a foreign operation, the component of OCI relating to that particular operation is recognised in profit or loss. (c) Investment properties Property held under a lease is classified as investment property when it is held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation or both, rather than for sale in the ordinary course of business or for use in production or administrative functions. Investment property comprises principally hospitals and universities that are not occupied substantially for use by, or in the operations of the Group and the Fund, nor for sale in the ordinary course of business, but are held primarily to earn rental income and capital appreciation. These buildings are substantially rented to tenants and not intended to be sold in the ordinary course of business. Investment property is measured initially at cost, including transaction costs. Transaction costs include transfer taxes, professional fees for legal services and (only in case of investment property held under a lease) initial leasing commissions to bring the property to the condition necessary for it to be capable of operating. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment property is stated at fair value, which reflects market conditions at the reporting date. The fair values were determined based on the capitalisation of net income method (“investment method”) and is premised on the principle that the value of an income-producing property is represented by the “present worth of future rights to income, or utility”. The valuation is performed by registered independent valuers having an appropriate recognised professional qualification and recent experience in the location and category of the properties being valued. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair values of investment property are included in profit or loss in the period in which they arise, including the corresponding tax effect. For the purposes of these financial statements, in order to avoid double counting, the fair value reported in the financial statements is: (i) Reduced by the carrying amount of any accrued income resulting from the spreading of lease incentives and/or minimum lease payments; (ii) In the case of investment property held under a lease, increased by the carrying amount of any liability to the head lessor that has been recognised in the statement of financial position as a finance lease obligation. Investment property is derecognised either when it has been disposed of (i.e. at the date the recipient obtains control of the investment property in accordance with the requirements for determining when a performance obligation is satisfied in MFRS 15) or when it is permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefit is expected from its disposal. The difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognised in profit or loss in the period of derecognition. In determining the amount of consideration to be included in the gain or loss arising from the derecognition of investment property, the Group and the Fund consider the effects of variable consideration, the existence of a significant financing component, non-cash consideration, and consideration payable to the buyer (if any) in accordance with the requirements for determining the transaction price in MFRS 15.
