    Government grants are not recognized unless there is reasonable assurance that the Company will comply with the grant’s conditions and that the grant will be received.

     

      (a) Grants related to assets

    Government grants whose primary condition is that the Company purchase, construct or otherwise acquire long-term assets are deducted from the carrying amount of the assets and recognized in profit or loss on a systematic and rational basis over the life of the depreciable assets.

     

      (b) Grants related to income

    Government grants which are intended to compensate the Company for expenses incurred are deducted from the related expenses.
