2    Income Statement                                                           
The description of Revenue in the income statement is replaced with CONTRACT    
Revenue.                                                                        
3    Note 1.1  Property, plant and equipment                                    
All property, plant and equipment are initially recorded at cost, less          
accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.                     
The cost of an item of fixed asset is recognised as an asset when it is         
probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to    
the company, and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. Costs           
include costs incurred initially to acquire or construct a fixed asset and      
costs incurred subsequently to add to, replace part of, or service it. If a     
replacement cost is recognised in the carrying amount of an item of a fixed     
assets, the carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised.               
There has been no major change in the nature of the property, plant and         
equipment, nor any change in policy regarding the use thereof.                  
Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line method to write off the cost    
of each asset, or the revalued amounts, to their residual values over their     
estimated useful lives. The estimated useful lives of the fixed assets are      
between 3 to 20 years. The depreciation charge for each period is recognised    
in profit or loss, unless it is included in the carrying amount of another      
asset. The gain or loss arising from the derecognition of an item of            
property, plant and equipment is included in profit or loss when the item is    
derecognised. The gain or loss arising from the derecognition of an item of     
property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the       
net disposal proceeds, if any, and the carrying amount of the item. The         
estimated useful lives of the assets are as follows:-                           
Item                         Average useful life                                
Land and buildings           UNLIMITED USEFUL LIFE Land and buildings           
                           are not depreciated                                  
BUILDINGS                    20 YEARS, COMMENCING IN THE 2009 FINANCIAL         
                           YEAR ONCE THE BUILDING IS DEEMED READY FOR           
                           USE.                                                 
Plant and machinery          5 to 10 years                                      
Furniture and fixtures       10 to 15 years                                     
Motor vehicles               5 to 20 years                                      
IT equipment                 3 to 5 years                                       
Mobile offices               10 to 15 years                                     
The carrying values of property, plant and equipment are reviewed for           
impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying        
value may not be recoverable. If any such indication exists and where the       
carrying values exceed the estimated recoverable amount, the assets or          
cash-generating units are written down to their recoverable amount.             
Gains and losses on disposal of property, plant and equipment are determined    
by reference to their carrying amount and are taken into account in             
determining operating profit. On disposal of revalued assets, amounts in        
revaluation and other reserves relating to that asset are transferred to        
retained earnings                                                               
Residual values, depreciation method and useful lives are reassessed            
annually.                                                                       
Where parts of an item of plant and equipment have different useful lives,      
they are accounted for as separate items.                                       
4    Note 1.3  Investment in joint ventures                                     
An investment in a joint venture is carried at cost less any accumulated        
impairment.                                                                     
Profits and losses resulting from contributions or sale of assets to joint      
ventures are only recognised to the extent of other venturers` interests in     
the joint venture.                                                              
The group`s share of profits or losses, resulting from purchase of assets       
from joint ventures are recognised only when the assets are resold to an        
independent party.                                                              
In respect of its interests in jointly controlled operations, the company       
recognises in its annual financial statements:                                  
-   the assets that it controls and the liabilities that it incurs; and         
-  the expenses that it incurs and its share of the income that it earns        
from the sale of goods or services by the joint venture.                        
In respect of its interest in jointly controlled assets, the company            
recognises in its annual financial statements:                                  
-  its share of the jointly controlled assets, classified according to the      
nature of the assets;                                                           
-  any liabilities that it has incurred;                                        
-  its share of any liabilities incurred jointly with the other venturers in    
relation to the joint venture;                                                  
-  any income from the sale or use of its share of the output of the joint      
venture, together with its share of any expenses incurred by the joint          
venture; and                                                                    
-  any expenses that it has incurred in respect of its interest in the joint    
venture.                                                                        
THE COMPANY WAS INVOLVED IN TWO JOINT VENTURES DURING THE YEAR, OF WHICH 50%    
OF THE JOINT VENTURES WERE CONTROLLED BY THE COMPANY. THE INTEREST IN THE       
JOINT VENTURES ARE CONSOLIDATED INTO THE GROUP FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ON A        
PROPORTIONATE BASIS, INCORPORATING THE JOINT VENTURES FIGURES INTO THAT OF      
THE COMPANY`S, ON A LINE BY LINE BASIS                                          
5    Note 1.7  Construction contracts and receivables                           
When the outcome of a construction contract can be reliably estimated and it    
is probable that the contract will be profitable, profits are generally         
realised on a percentage of completion basis every month, based on the terms    
and conditions negotiated with the client and such conditions influence         
contract pricing and are inextricably interwoven with contract                  
profitability. Risks and contingencies are also taken into consideration.       
IN DETERMINING THE STAGE OF COMPLETION OF ANY CONTRACT, THE ACTUAL COST         
INCURRED IS COMPARED TO THE FINAL ESTIMATED COST OF THE CONTRACT.               
Variations in contract work, claims and incentive payments are included to      
the extent that they have been agreed with the customer.                        
When the outcome of a construction contract cannot be estimated reliably,       
contract revenue is recognised to the extent that contract costs incurred       
are recoverable. Contract costs are recognised as an expense in the period      
in which they are incurred.                                                     
Construction contracts in progress represent costs that have not yet been       
billed to clients.                                                              
On completion of each contract a portion of the profits will be held back       
until retention`s are released by the client.                                   
When it is probable that total contract costs will exceed total contract        
revenue, the expected loss is recognised as an expense immediately.             
6    Note 1.12  PRIOR PERIOD ERRORS Fundamental errors                          
There have not been any PRIOR PERIOD ERRORS fundamental errors during the       
periods reported on.                                                            
7    Note 1.14 Translation of foreign currencies INCLUDING TRANSLATION OF       
FOREIGN SUBSIDIARIES                                                            
Transactions                                                                    
A foreign currency transaction is recorded, on initial recognition in           
Rand`s, by applying to the foreign currency amount the spot exchange rate       
between the functional currency and the foreign currency at the date of the     
transaction.                                                                    
At each balance sheet date:                                                     
- foreign currency monetary items are translated using the closing rate;        
- non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a         
foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the      
transaction; and                                                                
- non-monetary items that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency      
are translated using the exchange rates at    the date when the fair value      
was determined.                                                                 
Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items or on          
translating monetary items at rates different from those at which they were     
translated on initial recognition during the period or in previous annual       
financial statements are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which    
they arise.

The loans, excluding the B&W Employee Trust loan and the B & W Share            
Incentive Scheme Trust loan, arose as trading accounts that occurred in the     
normal course of business between the entities during the year which were       
not settled as at year end. Due to the fact that they are trading accounts,     
the loans are unsecured, but bear interest at rates linked to prime lending     
rates. There have been no changes to the terms or conditions of these loans     
during the year                                                                 
The loan to the B&W Employee Trust and  B & W Share Incentive Scheme Trust,     
resulted from assistance given to the Trusts in order for the Trust to          
acquire shares in the company. Interest is charged on the loan at a rate        
linked to prime lending rates, and it is anticipated that the loan will be      
settled in the 2008 financial year.
