History of Lucky Milk DropThe history of Lucky Lanka Milk Processing Co. PLC runs back to early 1990s. In 1991 the business of yoghurt started at ‘Godawa’ a rural village which relates a legend that couples with dairy industry. The legend tells us this remote village in Matara District of Sothern Province has provided the king with milk requirement of his palace. No one could have the least idea of the occurrence of a national level dairy company in the same area thousands years after that. However a courageous young man of his early twenties started a homemade yoghurt enterprise with the help of his four young sisters using excess milk of their own cow. At the first stage nearly a production of 300 cups was done which was taken to the market on a bicycle. The perseverance of these youngsters brought the business up to the present level.

Chairman’s MessageLucky Lanka is stepping on another challenging year in spite of all external and internal distur-bances that might demotivate any other enterprise of the third world countries. It is true the globalization has broadened our opportunities, techniques, strategies, competency and outlook on our particular fields. As well it has widened our challenges also. We should not forget that all other countries whether developed or developing equally make efforts to gain the maximum benefit of the globalization. Consequently our industries are also affected by the theory of ‘more power more triumphs’. In dairy industry the situation becomes worse since multinational giants have captured the dairy product market of countries like ours. In the past as well as in the present, as a company Lucky has been experiencing this hardship being indif-ferent. Our multinational competitors, with their immense financial power have been ende-vouring to demolish us.
Nevertheless Lucky Lanka Milk Processing Company has been able to keep the head up still for our tremendous effort to be with the conscience and humanity. Our sustained rapport with our stakeholders, backed up by the well qualified trustworthy workforce has provided us with strength and confidence to strive. Each and every time we are confronted by a crucial situation our strategic measures have made the situation favourable acquiring the fullest cooperation of our stakeholders.
Our newest project ‘Kirikatha’ is another strategic methodology we have launched in order to cope with the financially strong competitors’ challenge. Our standardized sales outlets network carried out with outside investors has increased our assets with no direct cost from the mother company. The potential of this project in enhancing the market value of our brand name was deeply considered. We have been able compete in the trade successfully with the minimum cost borne by the company. This project will widely spread out our goodwill in a short time bring an unexpected challenge to our competitors. Hence our confidence, as a company to tackle any of the problematic situations grows up continuously.
In my massage for the annual report of 2016 I should mention my obligations to all our stake-holders who were with us for the past and I would like to invite all of them and new comers to have a strong and confident link to ‘2020 Global Lucky’

Managing Director’s Message As a company we have been able to review on 2016 satisfactorily in considering our successful performance under unfavorable economic social and weather conditions. Especially the instability of the political arena and weather condition that affected badly for several times was a big challenge during the last year. Turbulent conditions in the society damaged our sales in large scale. In spite of all we have been able to compete successfully in the market and maintain our stability in the industry.
We have safe guard our co-operative values without any failure even under such hardships. As a local enterprise our contribution to the domestic economy is a matter of full satisfaction. While the rural living condition scrambles we could keep our milk farmers in their normal life style by providing them a competitive price and an uninterrupted collection of milk. We have been able to support our people with our CSR activities as usual. I would like to call year 2016 as a challenging year with ‘falling & rising’ even though the company has increased the sales by 18% compared to the last year. The period has tested our business strategy and unity as a team. Our audacity and endurance were scrutinized severely. I am proud to be a leading member in such a courageous team.

New Projects“ KIRI KATHA “ The Latest Value Added Concept of Lucky Lanka
Milk is converted into numerous products in this modern world in which the nutrition, hygiene and taste are highly considered. We Lucky Lanka always inclined to add more value to our products. As a result of constant new entries of the ‘Giants’ to the conventional yoghurt market, the competition has gone up unprecedentedly. In order to face this challenge we have already innovated new value added products such as Choghurt, Jelly yoghurt, drinking yoghurt and so on. We have realized only the product diversification is not enough to cope with the competitive market conditions, especially under the pressure given by the unethical and unusual price off of new comers to the industry. Consequently the retail sector has been enjoying the biggest part of the profit while the manufacturers’ profit margin reduces day by day. The modern trade bargaining is also not in a favourable condition. Lucky Lanka Milk Processing Co PLC has planned this new modified project ‘Kiri Katha’ with the hope of facing all these challenges. We have launched an island wide project to introduce exclusive sales outlets only for lucky branded products. Kiri Katha is the latest value added concept to opti-mize our margins.
These newly open sales outlets are collaborations. The company deals with individual or co-operative investors to open a standardized sales outlet that suits to the today’s competitive market. The standardization is done according to four fixed categories. These outlets are prepared paying an extreme attention to their external appearance. The sales team is given a

LUCKY LANKA MILK PROCESSING COMPANY PLCANNUAL REPORT & ACCOUNTS 2016 -2017
special training on customer care and selling chilled dairy products, as well as maintaining the restaurant. This new project has increased the company’s profit margin due to increasing quantity wise sale and avoiding of unnecessary price off.
The specialty of this project is, it reflects much more than these financial matters. The enthu-siasm our investors show in this venture is promising. We believe it is a certain kind of criteria to measure our goodwill as a local enterprise. As well it shows out our nation’s attitude towards local companies. Such a big number of outlets are to be established all over the coun-try. Only Lucky branded products are sold in these where the biggest part of the investment is done by the franchised share holder. The company has made arrangements to issue fresh milk for the consumers at these outlets minimizing their inconvenience in finding fresh milk in there surrounding. This becomes another national mission as it helps the country to save our foreign exchange by reducing import of powder milk. Additionally this service helps to up lift the health of our nation. Mean-while these outlets will be able to establish a good market for the harvest of country’s dairy farmers. Through this project we can offer a competitive price for raw milk that favours the farmers.
As this outlet network spreads our brand name we have gained an extra marketing value to our products. With the time this will strengthen our potential in all aspects. Consumers become more familiar with the Lucky brand name enabling the company to face the unethical threats via an extremely ethical and costless propaganda.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS
The preparation of the financial statements of the Company require the management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions, which may affect the amounts of income, expenditure, assets , liabilities and the disclosure of contingent liabilities, at the end of the reporting period. In the process of applying the company’saccounting policies, the key assumptions made relating to the future and the sources of estimation at the reporting date together with the related judgments that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below.
3.1 Note 13-Useful lives of Property, Plant & Equipment
The Company reviews the assets’ residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation at each reporting date. Judgment by the management is exercised in the estimation of these values, rates, methods. In connection with the residual value of motor vehicle under fleet, Company uses the experience of recent pattern of consumption and renewal of its fleet, together with advice from experts internal or external on residual values.
3.2 Note 16-Impairment Losses on Trade and Other Receivables
Trade and other receivables that have been assessed individually and found not to be impaired and all individually insignificant receivables are then assessed collectively, in groups of assets with similar risk characteristics, to determine whether provision should be made due to incurred loss events for which there is objective evidence, but the effects of which are not yet evident. The collective assessment takes account of data from the receivable portfolio (such as levels of arrears, credit utilisation, etc.), and judgements on the effect of concentrations of risks and economic data (including levels of unemployment, real estate prices indices, country risk and the performance of different individual groups).
3.3 Note 11-Taxes
The Company is subject to income taxes and other taxes including NBT. Significant judgement was required to determine the total provision for current, deferred and other taxes on the treatment of the adoption of SLFRS and transfer pricing in the financial statements and the taxable profit for the purpose of imposition of taxes. Uncertainties exist, with respect to the interpretation of the applicability of tax laws, at the time of the preparation of theses financial statements.
The Company recognised assets and liabilities for current, deferred and other taxes on estimates of whether additional taxes will be due. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the income, deferred and tax amounts in the period in which the determination is made.
3.4 Note 22-Defined benefit plan
The Defined benefit obligation and the related charge for the year are determined using actuarial valuations. The actuarial valuations involve making assumptions about discount rates, future salary increases, mortality rates etc. Due to the long term nature of such obligations these estimates are subject to significant uncertainty. All assumptions are reviewed at each reporting period.
3.5 Note 13.5-Useful –lives of intangible assets
The Company reviews the residual values, useful lives and methods of amortization of assets as at each reporting date. Judgment by the management is exercised in the estimation of these values, rates, methods and hence they are subject to uncertainty.
AuditorsThe resolutions to appoint the present Auditors, Messrs. Ernst & Young Chartered Accountant, who have expressed their willingness to contin-ue in office, will be proposed at the Annual General Meeting.
As far as the Directors are aware, the Auditors do not have any relationship on interest in the Company.

Lucky Lanka Milk Processing Company PLCNOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSYear ended 31 March 2017
4.2 Intangible Assets
Basis of Recognition
An Intangible Asset is recognized if it is probable that future economic benefits that are attributable to the assets will flow to the entity and the cost of the assets can be measured reliably.
Basis of Measurement
Intangible assets acquired separately are measured as initial recognition at cost. Following initial recognition intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses. The useful life of intangible assets is assessed to be either finite or indefinite. Intangible assets with finite useful life are amortized over the useful economic life and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The amortization period and the method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life is reviewed at least at each financial year end. Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are tested for impairment annually either individually or at the cash generating unit level.
Subsequent Expenditure
Subsequent expenditure on intangible assets is capitalized only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied these assets. All other expenditure is expensed when incurred.
De-recognition
Intangible assets are de-recognized on disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use. The gain or loss arising from de-recognition of intangible assets are measured as difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset.
Amortization
The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed to be either finite or indefinite. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortised over the useful economic life and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The amortisation period and the amortisation method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life are reviewed at least at each financial year end. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset is accounted for by changing the amortisation period or method, as appropriate, and treated as changes in accounting estimates. The amortisation expenses on intangible assets with finite lives are recognised in the Statement of comprehensive Income.
The useful lives and the amortization methods of intangible assets with finite lives are as follows:
The class of the class of intangible assets : Computer softwareUseful life : 4 yearsAmortization Method : Straight line method
4.3 Employee Benefit Liability
The employee benefit liability of the Company is based on the actuarial valuation carried out by Independent actuarial specialist. The actuarial valuations involve making assumptions about discount rates and future salary increases. Considering the complexity of the valuation, the underlying assumptions and its long term nature, the defined benefit obligation is highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed at each reporting date. Details of the key assumptions used in the estimates are contained in Note 22.

4.4 Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company, and the revenue and associated costs incurred or to be incurred can be reliably measured. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of trade discounts and Nation Building Taxes.
The following specific criteria are used for recognition of revenue:
Sale of goods
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have passed to the buyer, usually on delivery of the goods.
Gains and losses
Net gains and losses of a revenue nature arising from the disposal of property, plant and equipment and other non-current assets, including investments, are accounted for in the income statement, after deducting from the proceeds on disposal, the carrying amount of such assets and the related selling expenses.
Gains and losses arising from activities incidental to the main revenue generating activities and those arising from a group of similar transactions, which are not material are aggregated, reported and presented on a net basis.
Other income
Other income is recognised on an accrual basis.
4.5 Expenditure recognition
Expenses are recognised in the income statement on the basis of a direct association between the cost incurred and the earning of specific items of income. All expenditure incurred in the running of the business and in maintaining the property, plant and equipment in a state of efficiency has been charged to the statement of comprehensive income
For the purpose of presentation of the income statement, the “function of expenses” method has been adopted, on the basis that it presents fairly the elements of the company’s performance.
4.6 Borrowing Cost
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use are capitalized as part of the cost of the respective assets. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they occur. Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that the Company incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds.
4.7 Taxation
Current tax
Current tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted, at the reporting date.
Current income tax relating to items recognised directly in equity is recognised in equity and not in the income statement. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation and establishes provisions where appropriate.

Lucky Lanka Milk Processing Company PLCNOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSYear ended 31 March 2017
Deferred tax
Deferred tax is provided using the liability method on temporary differences at the reporting date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.
Deferred tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences, and unused tax credits and tax losses carried forward, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and the unused tax credits and tax losses carried forward can be utilized.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognised deferred tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realized or liability is settled, based on the tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted as at the reporting date.
Deferred tax relating to items recognised outside profit or loss is recognised outside profit or loss. Deferred tax items are recognised in correlation to the underlying transaction either in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset, if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when the deferred taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.
Sales tax
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of sales tax except:
• Where the sales tax incurred on a purchase of a assets or services is not recoverable from the taxation authority, in which case the sales tax is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item as applicable; and
• Receivables and payables that are stated with the amount of sales tax included.
The net amount of sales tax recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables in the statement of financial position.
4.8 FinancialInstruments — Initial Recognition and Subsequent Measurement
i) Financial assets
Initial recognition and measurement
Financial assets within the scope of LKAS 39 are classified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables, held-to-maturity investments, available-for-sale financial assets, or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge, as appropriate. The Company determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition.
All financial assets are recognised initially at fair value plus, in the case of assets not at fair value through profit or loss, directly attributable transaction costs.
The Company’s financial assets include cash and bank balances , trade and other receivables and amount due from related parties.
38
LUCKY LANKA MILK PROCESSING COMPANY PLCANNUAL REPORT & ACCOUNTS 2016 -2017
Lucky Lanka Milk Processing Company PLCNOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSYear ended 31 March 2017
Subsequent measurement
The subsequent measurement of financial assets of the Company depends on their classification as follows:
Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. After initial measurement, such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method (EIR), less impairment. Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included in finance income in the income statement. The losses arising from impairment are recognised in the income statement in finance costs.
Derecognition
A financial asset (or, where applicable a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is derecognised when:
• The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired
• The Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a ‘pass-through’ arrangement;and either (a) the Company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or (b) the Company has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.
When the Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset or has entered into a pass-through arrangement, and has neither transferred nor retained substantially all of the risks and rewards of theasset nor transferred control of it, the asset is recognised to the extent of the Company’s continuing involvement in it.
In that case, the Company also recognises an associated liability. The transferred asset and the associated liability are measured on a basis that reflects the rights and obligations that the Company has retained.
Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset is measured at the lower of the original carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of consideration that the Company could be required to repay.
ii) Impairment of financial assets
The Company assesses at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. A financial asset or a group of financial assets is deemed to be impaired if, and only if, there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that has occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (an incurred ‘loss event’) and that loss event has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or the group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated.
Evidence of impairment may include indications that the debtors or a group of debtors is experiencing significant financial difficulty, default or delinquency in interest or principal payments, the probability that they will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation and where observable data indicate that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows, such as changes in arrears or economic conditions that correlate with defaults.
39
LUCKY LANKA MILK PROCESSING COMPANY PLCANNUAL REPORT & ACCOUNTS 2016 -2017
Lucky Lanka Milk Processing Company PLCNOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSYear ended 31 March 2017
Financial assets carried at amortised cost
For financial assets carried at amortised cost, the Company first assesses whether objective evidence of impairment exists individually for financial assets that are individually significant, or collectively for financial assets that are not individually significant. If the Company determines that no objective evidence of impairment exists for an individually assessed financial asset, whether significant or not, it includes the asset in a group of financial assets with similar credit risk characteristics and collectively assesses them for impairment. Assets that are individually assessed for impairment and for which an impairment loss is, or continues to be, recognised are not included in a collective assessment of impairment.
If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss has been incurred, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the assets carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future expected credit losses that have not yet been incurred). The present value of the estimated future cash flows is discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate.
The carrying amount of the asset is reduced through the use of an allowance account and the amount of the loss is recognised in the income statement. Interest income continues to be accrued on the reduced carrying amount and is accrued using the rate of interest used to discount the future cash flows for the purpose of measuring the impairment loss. The interest income is recorded as part of finance income in the income statement. Loans together with the associated allowance are written off when there is no realistic prospect of future recovery and all collateral has been realised or has been transferred to the Company. If, in a subsequent year, the amount of the estimated impairment loss increases or decreases because of an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognized impairment loss is increased or reduced by adjusting the allowance account. If a future write-off is later recovered, the recovery is credited to finance costs in the income statement.
iii) Financial liabilities
Initial recognition and measurement
Financial liabilities within the scope of LKAS 39 are classified as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, loans and borrowings, or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge, as appropriate. The Company determines the classification of its financial liabilities at initial recognition.
All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings, carried at amortised cost. This includes directly attributable transaction costs.
The Company’s financial liabilities include trade and other payables, bank overdrafts, loans and borrowings.
Subsequent measurement
The subsequent measurement of financial liabilities of the Company depends on their classification as follows:
Loans and borrowings
After initial recognition, interest bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Gains and losses are recognised in the income statement when the liabilities are derecognised as well as through the effective interest rate method (EIR) amortisation process.
Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included in finance costs in the income statement.

4.9 Leases
4.9.1 Finance Leases – where the Company is the Lessee
Property, Plant & Equipment on finance leases, which effectively transfer to the Company substantially all risks and benefits incidental to ownership of the leased item are capitalised at the inception of the lease at the fair value of the leased property or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. Capitalized leased assets are disclosed as Property, Plant & Equipment and depreciated consistently with that of owned assets, as described under Property, Plant & Equipment.
The corresponding principal amount payable to the lessor, together with the finance cost payable over the period of the lease is shown as a liability. Lease payments are apportioned between the finance charges and reduction of the lease liability so as to achieve a constant periodic rate of finance cost on the remaining balance of the liability.
The cost of improvements to or on leasehold property is capitalised, disclosed as leasehold improvements and depreciated over the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful lives of the improvements, whichever is shorter.
Derecognition
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires.
When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as a derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability, and the difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the income statement.
Offsetting of financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the statement of financial position if, and only if, there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, or to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.
4.9.2 Fair Value Measurement
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:
• In the principal market for the asset or liability
• In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability
The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by the Company. The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest.
A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant's ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.
The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs.
41
LUCKY LANKA MILK PROCESSING COMPANY PLCANNUAL REPORT & ACCOUNTS 2016 -2017
Lucky Lanka Milk Processing Company PLCNOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSYear ended 31 March 2017
All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorised within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:
• Level 1 - Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
• Level 2 - Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable
• Level 3 - Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable for the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Company has determined classes of assets and liabilities on the basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability and the level of the fair value hierarchy as explained above.
4.10 Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price less estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
4.11 Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and short-term deposits in the statement of financial position comprise cash at banks and on hand and short-term deposits with a maturity of three months or less.
For the purpose of the cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and short-term deposits as defined above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts.
4.12 Defined Benefit Plan - Gratuity
The employee benefit liability of the Company is based on the actuarial valuation carried out by Independent actuarial specialist in the current financial year. The actuarial valuations involve making assumptions about discount rates and future salary increases. Considering the complexity of the valuation, the underlying assumptions and its long term nature, the defined benefit obligation is highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed at each reporting date. Details of the key assumptions used in the estimates are contained in Note 22.
4.13 Defined Contribution Plan - Employees' Provident Fund and Employees' Trust Fund
Employees are eligible for Employees’ Provident Fund contributions and Employees’ Trust Fund contributions in line with respective statutes and regulations. The companies contribute the defined percentages of gross emoluments of employees to an approved Employees’ Provident Fund and to the Employees’ Trust Fund respectively, which are externally funded.
4.14 Provisions, Contingent Assets and Contingent Liabilities
Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Where the Company expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example under an insurance contract, the
42
LUCKY LANKA MILK PROCESSING COMPANY PLCANNUAL REPORT & ACCOUNTS 2016 -2017
Lucky Lanka Milk Processing Company PLCNOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSYear ended 31 March 2017
reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented in the income statement net of any reimbursement.
If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost.
All contingent liabilities are disclosed as a note to the financial statements unless the outflow of resources is remote.
Contingent assets are disclosed, where inflow of economic benefit is probable.
5. STANDARDS ISSUED BUT NOT YET EFFECTIVE
The following SLFRS have been issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Sri Lanka that have an effective date in the future and have not been applied in preparing these Financial Statements. Those SLFRS will have an effect on the accounting policies currently adopted by the Company and may have an impact on the future Financial Statements.
a) SLFRS 9-Financial Instruments: Classification and Measurement
SLFRS 9, as issued reflects the first phase of work on replacement of LKAS 39 and applies to classificationand measurement of financial assets and liabilities. The Company will quantify the effect in due course.
This standard was originally effective for annual periods commencing on or after 01 January 2015. However effective date has been deferred subsequently.
The Company will adopt these standards when they become effective. Pending the completion of detailed review, the financial impact is not reasonably estimable as at the date of publication of these Financial Statements.
b) SLFRS 15- Revenue from Contracts with Customers
SLFRS 15 establishes a comprehensive framework for determining whether, how much and when revenue is recognized. It replaces existing revenue recognition guidance, including Sri Lanka Accounting Standard ( LKAS 1-) – “ Revenue”, Sri Lanka Accounting Standard (LKAS 11) – “ Construction Contracts” and IFRIC 13 – “ Customer Loyalty Programmer”. This standard is effective for the annual periods beginning on or after 01 January 2017.
The Company will adopt these standards when they become effective. Pending the completion of detailed review, the financial impact is not reasonable estimable as at the date of publication of these Financial Statements.
c) SLFRS 16- Leases
SLFRS 16 provides a single lessee accounting model, requiring leases to recognize assets and liabilities for all leases unless the lease term is 12 months or less or the underlying asset has a low value even though lessor accounting remains similar to current practice. This supersedes: LKAS 17 Leases, IFRIC 4 determining whether an arrangement contains a Lease, SIC 15 Operating Leases- Incentives; and SIC 27 evaluating the substance of Transactions Involving the Legal form of a Lease. Earlier application is permitted for entities that apply SLFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with customers. SLFRS 16 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. The impact on the implementation of the above Standard has not been quantified yet.
