| The company assesses each revenue-generating arrangement to determine whether it is acting as principal or as agent.
The company acts as principal where it controls the specified services before they are transferred to the customer. Indicators of control include responsibility for fulfilling the contract, discretion in establishing pricing, and exposure to inventory or performance risk. Where the company acts as principal, revenue is recognised at the gross amount of consideration to which it expects to be entitled.
The company acts as agent where its role is to arrange for services to be provided by another party and it does not obtain control of those services before transfer to the customer. Where the company acts as agent, revenue is recognised only to the extent of the commission or fee to which the company is entitled.
Management exercises judgement in assessing whether the company acts as principal or agent based on the substance of the contractual arrangements and the facts and circumstances of each transaction.
The company acts as an agent in arranging the provision of services by third parties. Revenue comprises only the commission or fees earned for arranging those transactions and is recognised when the company's performance obligation has been satisfied. Amounts collected on behalf of third parties are not recognised as revenue. |
