 2.  Use of Estimates
 
 The preparation of financial statements requires estimates and
 assumptions to be made that affect the reported amounts of assets and

 during the reporting period. Difference between the actual results and

 Fixed Assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and

 carrying amount, carrying amount is reduced to its recoverable amount.
 The reduction is treated as an impairment loss and is recognised in the

 indication that previously assessed impairment loss no longer exists,
 the recoverable amount is reassessed and the asset is reflected at the
 recoverable amount.
