| 3.3 | Foreign currency translation |
Functional and presentation currency
The consolidated financial statements are reported in Mexican pesos, which is also the functional currency of the parent company.
Foreign currency balances and transactions
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency of the respective Group entity, using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions (spot exchange rate). Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the measurement of monetary items denominated in foreign currency at year-end exchange rates are recognized in profit or loss.
Non-monetary items are not retranslated at year-end and are measured at historical cost (translated using the exchange rates at the transaction date), except for non-monetary items measured at fair value which are translated using the exchange rates at the date when fair value was determined.
In the consolidated financial statements of Grupo TMM, all the assets, liabilities, and operations of Grupo TMM’s entities operated in a functional currency other than the Mexican peso (Grupo TMM’s reporting currency) are converted to pesos on consolidation.
