• Short term trade and other debtors and creditors; |
• Bank loans; and |
• Cash and bank balances. |
All financial instruments are classified as basic. |
Recognition and measurement |

Except for bank loans, such instruments are initially measured at transaction price, including transaction costs, and are subsequently carried at the undiscounted amount of the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received, after taking account of impairment adjustments. |
