   Revenue from the sale of products is recognized in profit or loss when the contract has been approved by both parties, rights have been clearly identified, payment terms have been defined, the contract has commercial substance and collectability has been ascertained as probable. Collectability of customers payment is ascertained from the customers' historical records, guarantees provided, and advance payments made if any.
   The five steps recognition process for revenue is listed below:
3. • identify the contract with a customer
   • identify the performance obligation in the contract
   • determine the transaction price
   • allocate the price to the performance obligation
   • recognize revenue.

STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

1. FOREIGN CURRENCY
   Items included in the financial statements of the Company are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which they operate ('the functional currency'). The functional currency and presentation currency of the Company is the Nigerian Naira (N).
   Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from settlement of foreign currency transactions and from the translation of exchange rates of monetary assets and denominated in currencies other than the Company's functional currency are recognized in the foreign exchange gain or loss in profit or loss.
2. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
   Financial instruments represent the Company's financial assets and liabilities. Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized in the Company's statement of financial position when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. These instruments are typically held for liquidity, investment, trading, or hedging purposes. All financial instruments are initially recognized at fair value plus directly attributable transaction cost except those carried at fair value through profit or loss where transaction cost is recognized immediately in profit or loss.
   Financial instruments are recognized (derecognized) on the date the Company commits to purchase (sell) the instruments (trade date accounting).
   Financial assets
   Financial assets include trade and other receivables, cash and bank balances and certain other assets. Financial liabilities include term loans, bank overdraft, trade, and certain other liabilities. The Company classifies its financial assets into one of the categories discussed below, depending on the purpose for which the asset was acquired. The Company's has not classified any of its financial assets as held to maturity.
   Subsequent measurement
   Subsequent to initial measurement, financial instruments are measured either at fair value or amortized cost, depending on their classifications below. The Company's accounting policy for each category is as follows:
3. 1. Trade and Other Receivables
      These assets are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They arise principally through the provision of goods and services to customers, but also incorporate other types of contractual monetary assets. They are initially recognized at fair value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to their acquisition or issue, and are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method less provision for impairment.
      Impairment provisions are recognized when there is objective evidence (such as significant financial difficulties on the part of the counterparty of default or significant delay in payment) that the Company will be unable to collect all of the amounts due under the term's receivable, the amount of such a provision being the difference between the net carrying amount and the present value of the future expected cash flows associated with the impaired receivable.

STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

For trade receivables, which are reported net, such provisions are recorded in a separate allowance account with the loss being recognized within administrative expenses in the statement of comprehensive income. On confirmation that the trade receivable will not be collectable, the gross carrying value of the asset is written off against the associated provision.

ii. Cash and Cash Equivalent

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash.

Impairment of financial assets carried at amortized cost.

The Company assesses on each reporting date whether there is objective evidence that trade and other receivables are impaired. Trade and other receivables are impaired if objective evidence indicates that a loss event has occurred after initial recognition and that loss event has a negative effect on the estimated future cash flows of the receivables that can be estimated reliably. Criteria that are used by the Company in determining whether there is objective evidence of impairment include:

• known cash flow difficulties experienced by the customer
• a breach of contract, such as default or delinquency in repayment for goods and service
• breach of credit terms or conditions and
• it is becoming probable that the customer will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization.

Financial liabilities

These include the following items:

1. Bank borrowings

Bank borrowings are initially recognized at fair value, net of any transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently carried at amortized costs; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognized in the profit or loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.

General and specific borrowing costs directly attributable to acquisition, construction, or production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period to get ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets is substantially ready for their intended use or sale. All other borrowing costs are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.

1. Trade payables and other short-term monetary liabilities
   These are initially recognized at fair value and subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

Fair value

Fair value is the amount for which an asset could be exchanged, or a liability settled between knowledgeable,
