Loan accounts receivable include cumulative redeemable preference shares in the amount of R2 727 million (2018: R3 547 million), issued to structured entities (SEs), recognised as subsidiary companies, with an interest rate of 75% (2018: 75%) of the prime interest overdraft rate, published by the Standard Bank of South Africa Limited (SBSA), and with no fixed terms of redemption. Loan accounts payable are interest-free with no fixed terms of repayment. The redemption is dependent on the declaration of the Assore dividends to its shareholders, including SEs. The SEs are contractually obliged to utilise any dividends received to settle unpaid preference dividends prior to redemption of the preference shares.

                    
 

To date, the fair value adjustment on the preference shares, in terms of IFRS 9, amounted to R141 million, by way of using a discounted cash flow model, using a risk-free rate as the discounted rate. Refer note 16.2 for a contractual cash flow analysis on the loans to group companies including preference shares.

             
  Current accounts payable are interest-free and payable on demand.              
  Accrued preference dividends from SEs (included as part of other receivables)   631 158        643 457

During the 2019 financial year, it was determined that share premium of R524 607 000 paid for the investment in Main Street 350 Proprietary Limited (RF) in the 2010 financial year had been incorrectly classified as a loan receivable. This amount should have been included with investments in group companies.

The amount of the reclassification is the same for each of the financial years presented since and including 30 June 2010.

This error has no impact on the statements of comprehensive income or cash flows presented to date and eliminates in the group and therefore neither basic nor diluted earnings per share as reported by the group are impacted.

             
  The impact of correcting the error in the financial statements presented in 2018 and 2017 is as follows:
