as a Qatari shareholding |
|
| company
under Emirl Decree No. 51 of 1978. During the year, the name of the Bank has

|
| to

|
| 1.2

| of
Rs. 318.381 million from head office and transfer of Rs. 601.945 million from
US$ deposit account of |
|
| head
office to "current account" of Branches to offset prior and current
year losses. The management is |
|
| of
the view that head office continuous support to Pakistan operations will
bring the Branches on a profitable |
|
| footings.
The above factors will cumulatively help improve the operations of the
Branches. |
|
|
| 1.3

BASIS OF PRESENTATION |
|
|
| These
financial statements have been prepared in accordance with requirements of
the State Bank of |
|
| Pakistan
(SBP) [under the powers conferred upon it under the Banking Companies
Ordinance, 1962] to |
|
| conform
with BPRD Circular No. 31 dated 13 August 1997, International Accounting
Standards as applic- |
|
| able
in Pakistan and specific approval from SBP vide its letter No.
BSD/RV-42/502-20/20728 dated 15 |
|
| December
2000. |

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
|
| 3.1
Accounting convention |
|
| These
financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention. |
|
|
| 3.2
Staff retirement benefits |
|
| 3.2.1
The Bank operates an approved contributory provident fund scheme for all
permanent employees |
|
| Contributions
are made monthly in accordance with fund rules. |
|
|
| 3.2.2
Employees Accumulating Compensated Absences |
|
| Upto
the year 1999, it was the policy of the Bank to encash accumulated absences
of its employees |
|
| and
recognise the cost thereof in the books of account when actually paid. The
revised IAS 19 |
|
| on
employee benefits became applicable during the year which requires that an
enterprise should |
|
| recognise
the expected cost of accumulating compensated absences of its employees. |
|
| In
accordance with the requirements of revised IAS 19, the management has
decided to change its |
|
| accounting
policy and make provision for accumulated compensated absences to the said
extent. |
|
| The
estimated liability of the Bank in respect of these absences amounted to Rs.
0.831 million as |
|
| at
31 December 2000, which has been duly accounted for in the financial
statements. Had there |
|
| been
no change in accounting policy, the charge for the year would have been
reduced by Rs. |
|
| 0.831 million. |
|
|
| 3.3 Taxation |
|
| Current |
|
| Provision
for current taxation is based on the assessable income for the year after
taking into |
|
| account
tax credits available, if any. |
|
|
| Deferred |
|
| The
Bank accounts for deferred taxation using the liability method on all major
temporary difference. |
|
| Upto
last year, deferred tax debits were not incorporated in the accounts,
however, in order |
|
| to
comply with the requirements of the revised International Accounting Standard
(IAS) - 12 - |
|
| Income
Taxes, from current year the Bank has changed its policy and deferred tax
debits are now |
|
| being
accounted for (refer note 19.3). Had the accounting policy as described
above, not been |
|
| changed
the loss after taxation for the year would have been higher by Rs. 100
million. |
|
|
| 3.4
Investments |
|
| Commencing
from the current year, Investments in Government and other securities are
marked |
|
| to
market in accordance with BSD Circular No 20 dated 04 August 2000, except for
investment |
|
| acquired
under reverse repurchase transactions and Federal Investment Bonds. The
difference |
|
| between
the carrying value, representing cost adjusted for amortization of premium
and accretion |
|
| of
discount and the revalued amount is recognized in the surplus/deficit on
revaluation account, |
|
| until
realized on disposal. Profits and losses arising on disposals are taken to
income currently. |
|
|
| Previously
these investments were carded at cost less amortisation of premium and
accretion of |
|
| discount
where applicable. However, the value of Bank's investments has not been
changed and |
|
| surplus/deficit
has not been arised as a result of such change due to the reason explained in
note |
|
| 6.2. |
|
|
| The
Bank also enters into transactions of repo/reverse repo of securities at
contracted rates for |
|
| specific
periods of time. These are recorded as follows: |
|
|
| a)
In the case of sale under repurchase obligations, the securities are deleted
from the books at |
|
| cost
and the charges arising from the differential in sale and repurchase values
are accrued |
|
| on
a prorata basis and recorded as expense. Upon repurchase the securities are
reinstated |
|
| at
their respective original cost; and |
|
|
| b)
In the case of purchase under resale obligation, the securities are booked at
the contracted |
|
| purchase
price and the differential of the contracted purchase and resale price is
amortized |
|
| over
the period of their contract and recorded as mark-up / interest and discount
and / or |
|
| return earned. |
|
|
| 3.5 Advances |
|
|
| Loans
and advances are stated at their principal amounts, net of the provision for
loan losses. The |
|
| specific
provisions for possible loan losses have been made as considered necessary
after taking |
|
| into
consideration the realizable value of assets held by the Bank as security in
accordance with |
|
| the
Prudential Regulations of the State Bank of Pakistan. |
|
|
| 3.6
Operating fixed assets and depreciation |
|
| Fixed
assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is
computed over the |
|
| useful
lives of the related assets and charged to income applying the straight-line
method. Full |
|
| year's
depreciation is charged for assets purchased before 30 June and hail-year
depreciation is |
|
| charged
for assets purchased after 30 June while no depreciation is charged in the
year of disposals. |
|
| Gains
or losses on disposal of fixed assets are included in income currently.
Normal repairs and |
|
| maintenance
are charged to income as and when incurred. Major renewals and improvements
are |
|
| capitalised. |
|
|
| 3.7
Foreign currencies translation |
|
| Assets
and liabilities in foreign currency are translated into Pakistan rupees at
the relevant rate of exchange at the |
|
| balance
sheet or where appropriate at contractual rate. Foreign bills purchased and
forward exchange contract |
|
| other
than those relating to foreign currency deposits are valued at rate
applicable to the respective maturities of |
|
| relevant
foreign bills purchased and foreign exchange contracts. Exchange gains or
losses on translation are included |
|
| in
income currently. |
|
|
|
| 3.8
Revenue recognition |
|
| Mark-up
/return on advances and investments is recognized on an accrual basis, except
if recovery is |
|
| considered
doubtful. |
|
| Commission
is recognized on a receipt basis. |
