4. Tax
FRS19, Deferred tax, has been adopted and the 2001 comparatives restated
accordingly. The principal impact is the recognition of deferred tax in respect
of unrealised appreciation and depreciation of investments and future tax relief
for acquisition expenses. It is estimated that profits after tax for 2002
reduced by £13m (2001: increased by £47m) and at 31.12.02 Shareholders' funds
increased by £102m (2001: £115m) and the Fund for future appropriations reduced
by £76m (2001: £405m). Deferred tax provisions have not been discounted.
Although the SRC has been recognised as profit in these financial statements,
there has been no corresponding recognition in the FSA regulatory returns, on
which the taxation of life assurance business is currently based. As the payment
of incremental tax on this profit depends upon a future event, the occurrence of
which is under the company's control, no event giving rise to the need to
provide deferred tax has occurred. Accordingly no additional deferred tax has
been provided. The maximum amount of such deferred tax not provided was £655m
(2001: £768m).
