KOSOVO ENTERPRISE PROGRAM: A MICRO FINANCE INSTITUTION NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
REPORTING ENTITY These financial statements are presented by Kosovo Enterprise Program, which is established in Kosovo as a microfinance institution. BASIS OF PREPARATION OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with, and comply with, International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS). Where applicable, guidance from the Consultative Group to Assist the Poorest (CGAP), which is a consortium of donor agencies that provide recommendations of best practices for micro finance institutions, has been applied. The accompanying financial statements are based on the accounting records of the KEP which are maintained on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention, with adjustments and reclassifications for the purpose of fair presentation in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make prudent estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements preparation and the reported amounts of surpluses and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates have principally been made in respect of the provision for loan losses. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The measurement currency of the KEP and the presentation currency for these financial statements is the Euro. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES a)Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents are carried in the balance sheet at cost. The KEP considers all cash at bank and in hand to be cash and cash equivalents. b)Tangible fixed assets Tangible assets are recorded at purchase cost less accumulated depreciation. At each reporting date the Management assess whether there are any indicators of impairment of tangible assets. If any such indication exists, the management estimates the recoverable amount which is determined as the higher of the net selling price and its value in use. The carrying amount is reduced to the recoverable

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) amount and the difference is recognized as an expense (impairment loss) in the Statement of Operations. An impairment loss recognized for an asset in prior years is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the assets recoverable amount. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis. The depreciation periods, which approximate to the estimated useful economic lives of the respective assets are as follows: Office equipment: 4-10 years Motor vehicles: 5 years Gains and losses on disposal of property and equipment are determined by reference to their carrying amount and are taken into account in determining operating surplus. Repairs and renewals are charged to the Statement of Operations when the expenditure is incurred. Originated loans and provisions for loan impairmentLoans originated by the KEP by providing money directly to the borrower are categorised as loans originated by the KEP and are carried at amortised cost. A credit risk provision for loan impairment is established if there is objective evidence that the KEP will not be able to collect all amounts due. The amount of the provision is the difference between the carrying amount and the recoverable amount, being the present value of expected cash flows discounted based on the interest rate at inception. The loan loss provision also covers losses where there is objective evidence that probable losses are present in components of the loan portfolio at the balance sheet date. These have been estimated based on historical patterns of losses in each component and reflecting the current economic climate in which the borrowers operate. When a loan is not recoverable, it is written off against the related provision for impairments; subsequent recoveries are credited to the bad and doubtful debt expense in the Statement of Operations. In calculating such provision, consideration is also given to CGAP recommended guidelines and advice issued by BPK.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) d)Interest income and expense Interest income, fee income and expense in the Statement of Operations are recognised for all interest bearing instruments on an accrual basis using the fixed rate method based on the actual purchase price. Interest income is suspended when loans become doubtful of collection or as soon as the borrower defaults if earlier. Such interest income is excluded from interest income until received. Fee income Fee income is generally recognised on an accrual basis. Employee benefitsSavings scheme The KEP contributes with the employee’s toward a savings scheme for all staff who continue to work with KEP for at least a two year period commencing 1 January 2003. Accruals by the KEP were backdated in 2002 to employee commencement date for all employees who commenced with the KEP prior to 1 January 2003. The KEP contributes the equivalent of 5% of each employee’s basic salary to the savings scheme. For employees who commenced with the KEP before 1 January 2003, 10% of their basic annual salary has been accrued. Employees also contribute 5% of their salary which will be paid to staff upon their exit from the KEP regardless of the period of employment. TheKEP’s portion will be payable on a upwards sliding scale, after an initial 2 year period is fulfilled by the employee, where the full amount accrued will be payable to the employee on exit, but only after 6 years of employment is completed. Income taxThe KEP is not considered to be liable for profit taxes under the present taxation system operating in Kosovo.
