• Authors' editorial clarification-"Note" a and "Note " b are set out below.
a. l AS 10-"Events after the Balance Sheet Date." Under UK GAAP, dividends are recognised in
the period to which they relate. lAS 10 requires that dividends declared after the balance sheet
date should not be recognised as a liability at that balance sheet date as the liability does not rep–
resent a present obligation as defined by lAS 37-Provisions, Contingent Liabilities, and Contin–
gent Assets.
b.
lAS 27- "Con solidated and Separate Financial Statements." Under UK GAAP, the Company 's
investment in Marks and Spencer pic was measured at the nominal value of the shares issued. In
accordance with lAS 27- "Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements," the Company's in–
vestment was restated to the f air value of shares issued with a corresponding entry being made
to
a merger reserve. During the year ended April
2,
2005 dividends of 1,626.7m were paid out of
preacquisition profits. Under lAS
27,
this payment is treated as a reduction in the cost of invest–
ment and a transfer was made between the profit and loss account and merger reserve.
