INDEPENDENT AUDIT REPORT ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR
ENDED 31ST MARCH 2018
Report on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying financial statements of PRECIOUS METALS MINING AND
REFINING LIMITED, which comprise the statement of financial position as at 31st March 2018,
the statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows
for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes.
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in
accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards. This responsibility includes: designing,
implementing and maintaining internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of
financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; selecting
and applying appropriate accounting policies; and making accounting estimates that are reasonable in
the circumstances.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We
conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing. Those standards require
that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures
in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the
assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or
error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s
preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that
are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of
accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as
well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis
for our audit opinion.
Independence
As auditor, we are required to be independent of the company and free of interests that would be
incompatible with integrity and objectivity. In respect of this engagement, we followed the
independence requirements set out by the Certified Practising Accountants of Papua New Guinea.
Qualification
The company has ceased commercial operations. Consequently we do not verify the carrying value of
the capitalised pre operating expenses as stated in the statement of financial position in the sum of
K673,834. In addition, subsequent to the balance date, the unsecured loan in the sum of K1,875,081
has been forgiven by Fortune Gems and Jewellery DMCC.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2018
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and have not been adjusted to take account of the current costs of specific assets or their impact on the operating results, or changes in the general purchasing power of the kina.
Foreign currency transactions are recorded in Kina at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities are recorded at the exchange rate at the balance date. All gains and losses arising from exchange rate fluctuations are included in the statement of comprehensive income.
Fixed assets are stated at cost or at valuation less accumulated depreciation. The carrying amount of fixed assets is reviewed annually by the directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount for those assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows which will be received from the assets employed and subsequent disposal.
Depreciation is calculated on the diminishing value method so as to write off the net costs of the various classes of fixed assets during their effective working lives.
Additions are depreciated from the date of purchase in the year of acquisition.
These financial statements are presented in accordance with the Papua New Guinea Companies Act 1997 and comply with applicable financial reporting standards and other mandatory professional reporting requirements approved for use in Papua New Guinea by the Accounting Standards Board (ASB). The ASB has adopted International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and interpretations issued by the Standing Interpretations Committee as the applicable financial reporting framework.
The fundamental accounting assumptions recognised as appropriate for the measurement and reporting of results, cashflows and the financial position have been followed in the preparation of these financial statements.
Unless otherwise stated, the accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous year.
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.
The company has commenced winding down its operations and to accommodate this process, the company’s holding company has agreed to provide ongoing funds until the company is deregistered.
Stock is valued at the lower of cost or net realisable value. Cost is calculated at an average cost and does not include any proportion of overheads.
Tax effect accounting procedures have been adopted whereby the income tax expense in the income account is matched with the accounting profit (after allowing for permanent differences). The future tax benefit relating to tax losses is not carried forward as an asset unless the benefit can be regarded as being virtually certain of realisation. Income tax on net cumulative timing differences is set aside to the deferred income tax and future tax benefit accounts at the rates which are expected to apply when those timing differences reverse. The current rates have been used for this purpose.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2018
For the purposes of the statement of cash flow, cash includes cash on hand, in “at call” deposits with banks or financial institutions and investments in money market instruments maturing within less than two months, net of bank overdrafts.
Revenue, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of associated GST, unless the
GST incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority in which case it is recognised as
part of the cost or as part of the expense.
Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable.
The net amount of the GST receivable from or payable to, the taxation authority is included
with other receivables or payables in the statement of financial position.
Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from
investing or financing activities which are recoverable from or payable to the taxation
authority are presented as operating cash flows.
Provisions are recognised when the company has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result
of past events, for which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will result and
that outflow can be reliably measured.
The company’s financial instruments include cash, cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable
and borrowings.
The company’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks, including the effects of
changes in market prices, foreign currency exchange and interest rates. The company
monitors these financial risks and seeks to minimise the potential adverse effects of the
financial performance of the company. The company does not use any derivative financial
instruments to hedge these exposures.
The company undertakes transactions denominated in foreign currencies from time to time
and resulting from these activities, exposures in foreign currencies arise. It is not the
company’s policy to hedge these foreign currency risks.
In the normal course of business the company incurs credit risk from trade debtors and
financial institutions. The company has a credit policy which is used to manage this exposure
to credit risk.
The company aims to prudently manage liquidity risk by maintaining sufficient cash and
other liquid assets or the availability of funding through uncommitted credit facilities and
shareholder’s advances.
