Financial Statements
Unilever Annual Report and Accounts 2005 123
Notes to the consolidated accounts
Unilever Group
23 Equity
From 1 January 2005, Unilever has adopted IAS 32 ‘Financial Instruments: Disclosure and Presentation’ and IAS 39 ‘Financial Instruments:
Recognition and Measurement’. IAS 32 requires preference shares that provide for a fixed preference dividend to be classified as borrowings
and preference dividends to be recognised in the income statement as a finance cost. IAS 39 requires unrealised fair value gains/(losses) on
certain financial instruments to be recognised in equity, when realised, these fair value gains/(losses) are to be recognised in the income
statement. In accordance with the transition rules for first time adoption of IFRSs, 2004 comparatives have not been restated. The impact of
the adoption of IAS 32 and IAS 39 is shown in the following table:
