Turnover represents rental income receivable from the letting of residential properties.
Rental income is recognised on a straight-line basis over the period of the tenancy agreement, unless another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which benefits from the property are provided.
Income relating to periods after the reporting date is deferred, while income relating to periods before the reporting date is accrued.
Where rent-free periods or other tenant incentives are granted, the aggregate cost of such incentives is recognised as a reduction of rental income over the period of the tenancy on a straight-line basis.
