Notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements
For the half year ended 31 December 2012
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a) Basis of preparation of half year financial report
This general purpose financial report for the interim half year reporting period 31 December 2012 has been prepared in accordance with Accounting Standard
AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Act 2001.
This interim financial report does not include all the notes of the type normally included in an annual financial report. Accordingly, this report is to be read in
conjunction with the Annual Report for the year ended 30 June 2012 and any public announcements made by Resource Generation Limited during the interim
reporting period in accordance with the continuous disclosure requirements of the Corporations Act 2001.
The interim financial report has been prepared on the basis of historical cost except for the revaluation of certain financial instruments. Cost is based on the fair
values of consideration given in exchange for assets. All amounts are presented in Australian Dollars, unless otherwise noted.
The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year and corresponding interim reporting period.
Disclosure surrounding adoption of new or revised Standards
AASB 2011-9 "Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards- Presentation of Items of Other Comprehensive Income"
The amendments required the Company to group items in other comprehensive income (OCI) on the basis of whether they are potentially reclassifiable to profit
or loss subsequently and any tax associated with items before tax to be shown separately for each of the two groups of OCI items.
The adoption of the new and revised Standard has not resulted in any changes to the Company's accounting policies and has no effect on the amounts
reported for the current and prior half-years. However, the application of AASB 2011-9 has resulted in changes to the Company's presentation of, or disclosure
in, its half-year financial statements.
(b) Significant accounting policies
The interim financial report has been prepared using the same accounting policies as used in the annual financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2012.
The significant accounting policy for the Company is development expenditure.
Development expenditure
Development expenditure incurred by or on behalf of the consolidated entity is accumulated separately for each area of interest in which economically
recoverable reserves have been identified to the satisfaction of the directors. Such expenditure comprises direct costs plus overhead expenditure incurred
which can be directly attributable to the development process.
All expenditure incurred prior to the commencement of commercial levels of production from each area of interest is carried forward to the extent which
recoupment out of revenue to be derived from the sale of production from the area of interest or, by its sale, is reasonably assured. Once commercial levels of
d ti the development expenditure iin respect of th t area of iinterest will b amortised on a straight li b i , b d upon an estimate of th
production commence, th d l t dit t f that f t t ill be ti d t i ht line basis based ti t f the
life of the area of interest.
The interim financial report comprises the financial statements of Resource Generation Limited and its subsidiaries as at 31 December 2012 ("the Consolidated
Entity").
