BP Annual Report and Accounts 2005 117
50 First-time adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards continued
Presentation of pensions and other post-retirement benefit obligations BP adopted the UK standard on retirement benefits, FRS 17, in 2004.
Under this standard, retirement benefit obligations and assets are presented on a net-of-tax basis in the balance sheet. IFRS, however, requires
that these assets and liabilities be shown gross, with the related deferred tax effects included within the deferred tax captions in the balance sheet.
An adjustment has therefore been made to reclassify the deferred tax balances.

Reclassification of leasehold premiums In accordance with UK practice, BP included leasehold premiums paid within property, plant and equipment.
Under IFRS, the premiums paid on operating leases represent prepaid lease payments and have therefore been reclassified within loans and other
receivables as prepayments.
