Sheffield Resources Limited Annual Report 2023

CONTENTS FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEAR IN REVIEW DIRECTORS’ REPORT CORPORATE DIRECTORY SHAREHOLDER INFORMATION 11. Trade and other receivables Trade and other receivables are measured on initial recognition at fair value and are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less any allowance for impairment. Impairment of trade and other receivables is continually reviewed and those that are considered uncollectable are written off by reducing the carrying amount directly. Security deposits are non-derivative financial assets with various fixed or determinable payments and maturities. They are included in current assets, except for those with maturities greater than 12 months which are then classified as non-current assets. The Group’s trade and other receivables are as follows: 2023 $’000 2022 $’000 Current assets Trade receivables 34 12 Other receivables – security deposits 30 30 64 42 12. Convertible loan – South Atlantic Project Loan provided is recognised at the fair value of the consideration, net of transaction costs. The component of the convertible loan that exhibits characteristics of a receivable is therefore recognised as a financial asset in the statement of financial position. Loans are classified as non-current financial assets when there are unconditional rights to defer settlement for at least 12 months after the reporting period. The Group considers a financial asset to be in default when contractual payments are 90 days overdue. The Group may also consider a financial asset to be in default when internal or external information indicates that the Group is unlikely to receive the outstanding contractual amounts in full. A financial asset will be written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovering the contractual cash flow.
