Notes
1. Restatement of comparative information
Comparative information for 2001 has been restated to reflect the
changes described below.
(a) Transfer of solar, renewables and alternative fuels activities
With effect from 1 January 2002, the solar, renewables and
alternative fuels activities have been transferred from Other
businesses and corporate to Gas and Power. To reflect this
transfer Gas and Power has been renamed Gas, Power and Renewables
from the same date.
(b) New accounting standard for deferred tax
With effect from 1 January 2002 BP has adopted Financial Reporting
Standard No.19 'Deferred Tax' (FRS 19). This standard generally
requires that deferred tax should be provided on a full liability
basis rather than on a restricted liability basis as required by
Statement of Standard Accounting Practice No.15 'Accounting for
Deferred Tax'. The adoption of FRS 19 has been treated as a
change in accounting policy.
Under FRS 19 deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing
differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance
sheet date where transactions or events have occurred at that date
that will result in an obligation to pay more, or right to pay
less tax in the future. In particular:
o Provision is made for tax on gains arising from the disposal of
fixed assets that have been rolled over into replacement
assets, only to the extent that, at the balance sheet date,
there is a binding agreement to dispose of the replacement
assets concerned. However, no provision is made where, on the
basis of all available evidence at the balance sheet date, it
is more likely than not that the taxable gain will be rolled
over into replacement assets and charged to tax only where the
replacement assets are sold.
o Provision is made for deferred tax that would arise on
remittance of the retained earnings of overseas subsidiaries,
joint ventures and associated undertakings only to the extent
that, at the balance sheet date, dividends have been accrued as
receivable.
Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is
considered more likely than not that there will be suitable
taxable profits from which the underlying timing differences can
be deducted.
Deferred tax is measured on an undiscounted basis at the tax rates
that are expected to apply in the periods in which timing
differences reverse, based on tax rates and laws enacted or
substantively enacted at the balance sheet date.
As a consequence of adopting FRS 19 acquisitions have been
restated as if the new standard applied at that time. This leads
to the creation of higher deferred tax liabilities and greater
amounts of goodwill on those acquisitions.
