50 First-time adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards continued
Certain subsidiaries, principally in the US, have inventories valued on the last-in first-out (LIFO) basis for tax purposes. The difference between the
book and tax valuation is not a timing difference for UK GAAP but is a temporary difference for IFRS.

Under UK GAAP, a deferred tax provision is made for tax that would arise on the remittance of the retained earnings of overseas subsidiaries, joint
ventures and associated undertakings, only to the extent that dividends have been accrued as receivable. For IFRS, deferred tax is recognized for all
retained earnings whose distribution is not within the control of the group or whose distribution is likely in the foreseeable future, irrespective of
whether dividends have actually been accrued or declared.

Major maintenance expenditure Under UK GAAP, the group capitalized expenditure on major maintenance, refits or repairs where it enhanced
or restored the performance of an asset, or replaced an asset or part of an asset that was separately depreciated. Under IFRS, the group will
continue to capitalize expenditure where it enhances the performance of an asset or replaces an asset or part of an asset that meets the group’s
definition of a part of an asset in accordance with IAS 16 ‘Property, Plant and Equipment’. Other elements of expenditure incurred during major
plant maintenance shutdowns, such as overhaul costs, are not permitted to be capitalized under IFRS. There is therefore a reduction in the carrying
value of property, plant and equipment to reflect this change for expensing overhaul costs that no longer qualify for capitalization.
