Notes to the Consolidated statements
2.14
TREASURY STOCK
Treasury stock is recorded as a deduction from shareholders’ equity, at
cost. Gains and losses from sales of treasury stock (and the related tax
effect) are recorded directly in shareholders’ equity without affecting
income for the period.
2.15
NON-CURRENT ASSETS AND DISPOSAL GROUPS HELD FOR SALE
AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
A discontinued operation is a component of an entity that has been either
disposed of or classified as held for sale, and:
■
represents a separate major line of business or geographical area
of operations;
■
is part of a single coordinated plan to dispose of a separate major line
of business or geographical area of operations; or
■
is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale.
It is classified as a discontinued operation at the time of sale or earlier if its
assets and liabilities meet the criteria for classification as “held for sale”.
When a component of an entity is classified as a discontinued operation,
comparative income statement and cash flow information are restated
as if the entity had met the criteria for classification as a discontinued
operation on the first day of the comparative period.
In addition, all the assets and liabilities of the discontinued operation are
presented on separate lines on each side of the statement of financial
position, for the amounts at which they would be reported at the time of
sale after eliminating intra-group items.
