Cash and cash equivalents at the end of the year 128,361 1,000
1. Reporting entity
The financial statements of the Company as at and For the year ended December 31,
2010 comprise those of the Company alone. The company renders administrative,
financial, economic and managerial services; and also rehabilitates ports and
salvages ships.
2. Basis of preparation
Items included in the financial statements are measured using the currency of the
primary economic environment in which the company operates (the Source and
Functional currency). The financial statements are presented in United States
Dollars, which is the company’s functional and reporting currency.

BUCHANAN RENEWABLE ENERGIES (LIBERIA), INC. (BR INC.)
The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods
presented in these financial statements.
When parts of an item of fixed assets have different useful lives, they are
accounted for as separate items (major components) of fixed assets.
(iii) Depreciation
Depreciation is recognized in profit or loss on a straight line basis over the
estimated useful lives of each part of an item of fixed assets. Leasehold
improvements are amortized over the life of the improvement or the life of
the lease, whichever is shorter. Land is not depreciated.
The estimated useful lives of the assets for the period are as follows:
(iv) Disposals
Gains or losses on the disposal or scrapping of fixed assets are determined as
the difference between the sales price less the cost of dismantling selling and
re-establishing the assets and the carrying amount. Any gains or losses are
recognized in the income statement as other operating income or external
expenses respectively.
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and call deposit.
Bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form an integral part of
the company’s cash management are included as a component of cash and
cash equivalents for the purpose of the cash flows statement.
The company does not hold derivative financial instruments to hedge its
foreign currency and interest rate risk exposures.
(d) Provisions
Provisions for legal claims are recognized when the company has a present legal
or constructive obligation as a result of past events; and it is more likely than not
that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation; and the
amount has been reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognized for future
operating losses.
Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow
will be required in settlement is determined by considering the class of obligations
as a whole. A provision is recognized even if the likelihood of an outflow with
respect to any one item included in the same class of obligations may be small.

BUCHANAN RENEWABLE ENERGIES (LIBERIA), INC. (BR INC.)
(g) Borrowings
Borrowings are recognized initially at fair value, being the proceeds net of
transaction costs incurred. If the amount borrowed is denominated in United
States Dollars which is the company’s functional and reporting currency, it is
maintained at the initial amount recorded, less any repayments made as at the
reporting date. If the amount is denominated in a currency other than the reporting
currency of the company, it is revaluated and adjusted though the income
statement at each reporting date.
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless when the company has an
unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after
the balance sheet date.
(i) Revenue
Revenue is recognized after management services rendered have been invoiced to
the entity which benefited from services.
