This excerpt taken from the BP 6-K filed Mar 13, 2006. Interest bearing loans and borrowings
All loans and borrowings are initially recognized at cost, being the fair value of the proceeds received net of issue costs associated with the borrowing.
After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any issue costs, and any discount or premium on settlement.
Gains and losses arising on the repurchase, settlement or cancellation of liabilities are recognized respectively in interest and other revenues and other finance expense.
