III. Future outlook of the Company
1. Analysis on the industrial development 2008:
In recent years, the Chinese domestic thermal power generation market has been developed quickly.
I. The total output in the power industry has been increased greatly, with an upgrading of overall
capacity. Currently, the total capacity in the power industry exceeds 80,000MW, which can not only
meet the needs of the Chinese domestic power industry but also have capability of entering into
overseas market.
II. The industrial structure has been reformed with improvement of product quality. In the domestic
power station boiler industry, a number of 600MW SC (USC) class units and 300MW for thermal
power plants based on transferred technology have been manufactured domestically, leading the market
into a mature period in terms of technology and production. Due to the replacement program of small
thermal power plants in China, the market need for medium and small power station boilers is
27
shrinking down, which causes a decrease in overall power station boiler market.
2. Strategy for future development
With the global economic integration, the market competition is currently focused on quality and brand.
The new WBC’s development strategy is “restructuring organization, optimizing product profiles,
updating technologies and energy saving and environmental protection”. As the current factory is
located at the central of Wuhan city, with old facilities and limited transportation connections which do
not benefit extension of future production line and technology upgrading, especially not beneficial to
production of large capacity boilers (up to 600MW class boilers). Therefore, the Company plans to
relocate the current facility to a new site, which includes the longest boiler manufacturing workshop in
the world, most advanced factory layout, and excellent production processes and excellent
transportation facilities. These will dramatically improve the WBC’s capacity and efficiency in the
future.
The main purpose for new facility investment is to further develop the manufacturing technology level
of the Company. Through transfer of Alstom world-class super-critical and sub-supercritical boiler
technology, the products of new Company will be environment-protective, high-efficient and adaptive
to the requirements of current power market development, consequently the operating level can be
improved to a great extent, as a result the new WBC will be brought to a top class worldwide in terms
of engineering, manufacturing and finished products. These will make new WBC a boiler
manufacturing base within Alstom worldwide and in China. The Company is also expected to be one of
the most advanced boiler manufacturers in Asia and worldwide.
3. Operational strategy for the year 2008
The year of 2008 is the first year after acquisition since 2007 which brings many challenges to the
Company. The orders to be received in 2008 will be drastically affected by the relocation of the factory
from the existing location to the new location in Wuhan development zone compared to the last year.
The new management team will focus on 4 actions as follows: 1, to increase the intake of profitable
orders; 2, to improve company Project Management; 3, to optimize company cost base; 4, it is all about
people, to implement various functional competencies training and transfer of technology training
programs. The new management team in new WBC will take actions to remain its current market
shares and further explore the market shares for 600MW class SC and 300MW CFB boilers. In
addition, the Company will also dedicate to exploration of overseas market of boiler proper and boiler
island with full support from Alstom. The Company will reinforce the technical transferring of new
product/technology and costs control and gradually implement the new operational systems in order to
achieve the goals of efficient management and standard operation by internal controls and internal
monitoring within the Company.
4. Main risks and solutions
According to market forecast, in 2008, the Chinese domestic thermal power generation market will
continue to shrink down which could lead the Company to a potential risk of decrease of market shares.
In the face of such new market risk, the new WBC and Alstom will jointly launch its market
development plan by using the technology strength in order to remain the current market shares and
build up the new WBC one of the recognized companies with advanced technologies in the market.
Affected by the revised monetary policy in China, there will be a risk possibly caused by fluctuation of
foreign currency exchange rate. Due to adjustment of foreign currency exchange rate issued by China
People’s Bank, the Company will take actions to enhance capital management by reasonable allocation
of capitals and develop more financing channels in order to minimize the foreign currency exchange
rate risk. Meanwhile, due to the increasing trend of RMB against USD, the Company will closely
watch the fluctuation of foreign currency exchange rate to take immediate actions against the change of
monetary market

Management's responsibility for the financial statements
Preparing financial statements in compliance with Chinese Accounting Standard (2006) is the
responsibility of the Company’s management. This responsibility includes: designing, implementing
and maintaining internal controls relevant to the preparation of these financial statements to prevent
these financial statements from material misstatement arising from fraud or error; selecting and
applying proper accounting policies; and making reasonable accounting estimates.
Auditor's responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We
conducted our audit in accordance with Auditing Standards for CICPA. Those Standards require that we
plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are
free from material misstatement.
An audit includes performing audit procedures, so as to obtain audit evidence to support the amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements. Audit procedures are relied on the auditors’ judgments,
including assessment on the risk of material misstatement of these financial statements arising from
fraud or error. In risk assessment procedures, we consider internal controls relating to the preparation of
these financial statements to design appropriate audit procedures, but our objective is not to express our
opinion on the effectiveness of internal controls. An audit also includes assessing the reasonability of
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by the management, as well as evaluating
the overall financial statements presentation.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and effective, providing a reasonable
basis for our opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements comply with Chinese Accounting Standard (2006), and present
fairly in all material respects the financial position of the Company as of December 31 2007 and the

Note 4. Summary of Main Accounting Policies and Accounting Estimation
1 Accounting year
The accounting year of the Group is from January 1 to December 31 of the Gregorian calendar.
2 Accounting standard currency
Renminbi (RMB) is used as the accounting standard currency.
3. Measurement of the elements of the financial statements
The measurement basis commonly adopted by the Company in preparing the financial statements is
historical cost. This is usually combined with other measurement bases. When the amount of the
accounting elements are determinable and obtainable, the selection of other particular basis of
measurement such as current cost, net realisable value, present value and fair value may applied.
4 Cash equivalent
Cash equivalent is defined as the short-term, highly-liquid small investment which is easily transferred
into cash and has low risk of change of value.
5 Foreign currency translations
Any transaction is converted into the accounting standard currency according to the approximate
exchange rate of the sight rate on the occurrence date of the transaction.
(1) Foreign currency exchange difference
The foreign currency monetary and non-monetary items are translated at balance sheet dates as
following: The monetary items of foreign currencies at the year end are converted with the closing rate
on the date of balance sheet. Exchange differences arising on translating monetary items at rates
different from those at which they were translated on initial recognition during the period or in previous
financial statements is recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise. Non-monetary
items in foreign currencies measured with historical costs are not changed their amounts in the
accounting standard currency but coverted with the spot rate on the date of the transaction.
Non-monetary items in foreign currencies measured with fair value are converted according to the spot
rate on the date of confirming fair value. Exchange difference arising on translated accounting standard
currency and original accounting standard currency is recognised as a change of fair value (including
change in exchange rate) in profit or loss in the period. Exchange difference of principle and interest of
special loan which satisfies capitalised conditions is capitalised as cost of the assets during the
capitalisation period.
(2) Conversion of foreign currencies
While conversion of financial statements for overseas business, the Company adopts the following
53
principle: The items of assets and liabilities in the balance sheet are used with the spot rate on the
balance sheet date for conversion, and the items of owners’ equity, except the item “undistributed
profit”, are converted with the spot rate when occurrence. The items of incomes and expenses in the
profit and loss statement are converted with approximate exchange rate of the sight rate on the
transaction occurring date. The conversion difference of financial statements in foreign currencies
arising from the above conversion is separately listed in the item of shareholders’ equity in the
balance sheet. Exchange difference arised from conversion of financial statements is presented
separately as equity item. The same principle is applied in the comparative financial statements.
6 Recognition and measurement of financial instrument
(1)Recognition of financial instrument
The Company recognises a financial asset or fiancial liability on its balance sheet when, and only when,
the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
(2)Classification and measurement of financial assets
①The Company classfies financial assets into financial assets at fair value through profit or loss;
held-to-maturity investments; loans and receivables; and available-for-sale financial assets.
②The financial assets are initially recognised at fair value. Gains or losses arising from a change in the
fair value of a financial asset at fair value through profit or loss is recognised in profit or loss when it
incurred and relevant transaction costs are recognised as expense when it incurred. For other financial
assets, the transaction costs are recognised as costs of the financial assets.
③Measurement of financial assets
A. A financial asset at fair value through profit or loss includes financial assets held for trading and
financial assets designated by the Company as at fair value through profit or loss. The Company
subsequently measures the financial asset at fair value through profit or loss at fair value and recognises
the gain or loss arising from a change in the fair value of a financial asset at fair value through profit or
loss as profit or loss in the current period.
B. Held-to-maturity investments are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. A
gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss during the current period when the financial asset is
derecognized or impaired and through the amortisation process.
C. Loans and receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. A gain or
loss is recognised in profit or loss during the current period when the financial asset is derecognized or
impaired and through the amortisation process.
D. Available-for-sale financial assets are measured at fair value and the gain or loss arising from a
change in the fair value of available-for-sale financial assets is recognised as capital reserve which is
transferred into profit or loss when it is impaired or derecognised. Interests or cash dividends during the
holding period are recognised in profit or loss for the current period.
④Impairment of financial assets
A. The Company perform an impairment review for all financial assets except those measured at fair
value through profit or loss. The Company recognises impairment loss and provides provision for
impairment of financial assets when there is any objective evidence indicated impairment.
B. The objective evidences indicated impairment which the Company uses to determine the impairment
are as following:
a)Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or obligor;
b)A breach of contract, such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal payments;
c)The lender, for economic or legal reasons relating to the borrower's financial difficulty, granting to
the borrower a concession that the lender would not otherwise consider;
d)It becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation;
54
e)The disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties of the
issuer;
f)Observable data indicating that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows
from a group of financial assets since the initial recognition of those assets, although the decrease
cannot yet be identified with the individual financial assets in the group; including (i) adverse changes
in the payment status of borrowers in the group; or (ii) national or local economic conditions that
correlate with defaults on the assets in the group (eg an increase in the unemployment rate in the
geographical area of the borrowers, a decrease in property prices for mortgages in the relevant area, or
adverse changes in industry conditions that affect the borrowers in the group).
g)Significant adverse changes occur in the debtor's business technology, market, economic or legal
environment, so that the investment costs may not able to recover;
h)A significant or non-temporary decrease in fair value of equity investment instruments;
i)Other objective evidences indicate impairment of financial assets.
C. Measurement of impairment loss of financial assets
a)Measurement of impairment loss of held-to-maturity investment, loans and receivables
If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss on loans and receivables or held-to-maturity
investments carried at amortised cost has been incurred, the amount of the loss is measured as the
difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows.
The amount of the loss is recognised in profit or loss of the current period.
The Company assesses whether objective evidence of impairment exists individually for financial
assets that are individually significant, and individually or collectively for financial assets that are not
individually significant. If the Company determines that no objective evidence of impairment exists for
an individually assessed financial asset, whether significant or not, it includes the asset in a group of
financial assets with similar credit risk characteristics and collectively assesses them for impairment.
Assets that are individually assessed for impairment and for which an impairment loss is or continues
to be recognised are not included in a collective assessment of impairment.
The Company performs impairment test for receivables and provide provision for impairment loss of
receivables at each balance sheet date. For the individually significant receivables, the impairment test
is carried on individually. If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss on loans and
receivables, the Company provides provision for impairment loss for the amount which is measured as
the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows.
For the receivables which are not individually significant or the individually significant receivables
which are not determined for impairment, the Company asseses the asset in a group of financial assets
with similar credit risk characteristics and collectively provide them for provision of impairment
according to certain percentage of the total receivables at the balance sheet date.
The Comapany determines the percentage of provision for bad debt of receivables considering both
actual loss of previous receviables or receivables with similar credit risk characteristics and aging of
current receibables. The current percentage of provision for bad debt of receivables is as following:
Percentage of provision for bad debt of receivables
Aging of receivables Percentage of provision for bad debt
Within 1 year 3%
1-2 years 3%
55
2-3 years 6%
3-5 years 20%
Over 5 years 100%
If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related
objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised
impairment loss of financial asset measured at amortised cost is be reversed. The amount of the
reversal is recognised in profit or loss of the current period.
b)Available-for-sale financial assets
When a decline in the fair value of an available-for-sale financial asset has been recognised directly in
equity, the cumulative loss that had been recognised directly in equity is removed from equity and
recognised in profit or loss even though the financial asset has not been derecognised.
If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss has been incurred on an unquoted equity
instrument that is not carried at fair value because its fair value cannot be reliably measured, or on a
derivative asset that is linked to and must be settled by delivery of such an unquoted equity instrument,
the amount of the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the carrying amount of the
financial asset and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the current market
rate of return for a similar financial asset. Such impairment losses are recognised in the profit or loss of
the current period.
If, in a subsequent period, the fair value of a debt instrument classified as available for sale increases
and the increase can be objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment loss was
recognised in profit or loss, the impairment loss is reversed, with the amount of the reversal recognised
in profit or loss of the current period.
Impairment losses recognised in profit or loss for an investment in an equity instrument classified as
available for sale is not reversed through profit or loss. For an impairment loss has been incurred on an
unquoted equity instrument that is not carried at fair value because its fair value cannot be reliably
measured, or on a derivative asset that is linked to and must be settled by delivery of such an unquoted
equity instrument, the impairment loss is not reversed through profit or loss.
(3)Classification and measurement of financial liabilities
①The Company's financial liabilities are classified as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or
loss and other financial liabilities.
②Financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. For the financial liability at fair value through
profit or loss, relevant transaction costs are recognised as expense when it incurred. For the other
financial liabilities, relevant transaction costs are recongnised as costs.
③Subsequent measurement of financial liabilities
A. Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities held for trading
and financial liabilities designated by the Company as at fair value through profit or loss. The
Company measures a financial liability at fair value through profit or loss at its fair value. A gain or
loss of change in fair value is recognised in the profit or loss of the current period.
B. Other financial liabilities are measured by amortised cost using effective interest rate.
(4)Fair value measurement consideration
①If there is an active market for the financial instrument, the fair value is quoted prices in the active
market.
②If the market for a financial instrument is not active, the Company establishes fair value by using a
56
valuation technique.
7. Recognition and measurement of financial assets transfer
(1)The Company derecognises financial assets when the Company transfers substantially all the risks
and rewards of ownership of the financial assets.
On derecognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the follows is recognised in
profit or loss of the current period.
①the carrying amount of transferring financial assets;
②the sum of the consideration received and any cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised
directly in equity (including financial assets transferred to available for sale category).
If the transferred asset is part of a larger financial asset and the part transferred qualifies for
derecognition in its entirety, the previous carrying amount of the larger financial asset is allocated
between the part that continues to be recognised and the part that is derecognised, based on the relative
fair values of those parts on the date of the transfer. The difference between the follows is recognised in
profit or loss of the current period.
①the carrying amount allocated to the part derecognised;
②the sum of the consideration received for the part derecognised and any cumulative gain or loss
allocated to it that had been recognised directly in equity (including financial assets transferred to
available for sale category).
A cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised in equity is allocated between the part that
continues to be recognised and the part that is derecognised, based on the relative fair values of those
parts.
(2)If a transfer does not qualify for derecognition, the Company continues to recognise the
transferred asset in its entirety and shall recognize a financial liability for the consideration received.
When the Company continues to recognise a financial asset to the extent of its continuing involvement,
the Company also recognises an associated liability. The transferred asset and the associated liability
are measured on a basis that reflects the rights and obligations that the Company has retained.
8. Inventory
(1)The inventories are divided into the following categories: purchased products, circulating
materials, finished products, work-in-progress, and materials in consignors.
(2)Recognition of inventory:Inventory is recognised when the following conditions are satisfied.
①The future economic benefit embodied in the inventory is the potential to contribute to the Company;
②The cost of the inventory can be measured reliably.
(3)The method of measuring inventories: Raw materials and circulating materials are measured at
standard cost method which the variance between standard cost and actual cost is adjusted monthly.
Finished products and work-in-progress are measured at actual cost which is allocated according to the
job reference.
(4)Amortisation metnhod of low-value consumption goods and packages: Low-value consumption
goods and packages are fully amortised when they are required and delivered.
(5)Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value at the balance sheet date.
The amount of any write-down of inventories to net realisable value and all losses of inventories are
recognised as an expense in the period when the write-down or loss occurs.
57
①Net realisable value:Estimates of net realisable value are based on the most reliable evidence
available. These estimates take into consideration of events occurring after the end of the period and
the purpose for which the inventory is held.
Materials and other supplies held for use in the production of inventories are not written down below
cost if the finished products in which they will be incorporated are expected to be sold at or above cost.
However, when a decline in the price of materials indicates that the cost of the finished products
exceeds net realisable value, the materials are written down to net realisable value.
The net realisable value of the quantity of inventory held to satisfy firm sales or service contracts is
based on the contract price.
If the sales contracts are for less than the inventory quantities held, the net realisable value of the
excess is based on general selling prices.
②The Company generally provides provision for impairment of inventory individually. For large
quantity and low value items of inventories, cost and net realisable value are determined based on
categories of inventories. Where certain items of inventory have similar purposes or end uses and relate
to the same product line producted and marketed in the same geographical area, and therefore cannot
be practicably evaluated separately from other items in that product line, costs and net realisable values
of those items may be determined on an aggregate basis.
(6)The Company adopts perpetual inventory system for its inventory taking.
9. Measurement of construction contracts
Construction contracts are measured at the actual cost, including the direct and indirect costs incurred
and attributable to a contract for the period from the date the contract is signed to the final completion
of the contract. The construction contract in progress should be presented in the Balance Sheet at the
net amount of payment amount after decuting the sum of the accumulated costs occurred and the
accumulated margin profit (loss) recognized. The excess of the sum of the accumulated costs occurred
and the accumulated margin profit (loss) recognized over the payment amount should be presented as
inventory. The excess of the payment amount over the sum of the accumulated costs occurred and the
accumulated margin profit (loss) should be presented as advanced from customers.
Costs such as travelling expenses and tender charges incurred relating to the signing of the constract
should be included as contract costs when the contract is acquired, where the costs could be recognized
individually and measured reliably and the contract is probably signed; otherwise it should be charged
into the income statement for the period.
10. Long-term equity investment
(1)Initial measurement
The Company initially measures long-term equity investments under two conditions:
① For long-term equity investment arising from business combination under the common control, the
cost is recognised under the following principles.
If the business combination is under the common control and the acquirer obtaines long-term equity
investment in the consideration of cash, non-monetary asset exchange and bearing acquiree’s liabilities,
58
the initial cost is the proportion of the acquiree’s net asset at the acquisition date. The difference
between the consideration and the cost is adjusted to capital reserve. If the capital reserve is not
sufficient for adjustment, retained earning is adjusted respectively. The Company recognises the
business combination costs directly attributable to the combination, such as professional fees paid to
accountants, legal advisers, valuers and so on, in profit or loss of the current period when it occurred.
If the acquirer issuing equity shares as consideration, the initial cost is the proportion of carrying
amount of the acquiree’s net asset at the acquisition date. Amount of share capital equals to the par
value of the issued shares. The difference between consideration and par value of issued shares is
adjusted to capital reserve. If the capital reserve is not sufficient for adjustment, retained earning is
adjusted respectively. The costs occurred in business combination such as charges of security issuing,
commissions are deducted from premium of equity instruments. If the premium is not sufficient for
adjustment, retained earning is adjusted respectively.
B. If the business combination is not under the common control, the acquirer recognises the initial cost
of combination under the following principles.
a)When business combination is achieved through a single exchange transaction, the cost of a business
combination is the aggregate of the fair values, at the date of exchange, of assets given, liabilities
incurred or assumed, and equity instruments issued by the acquirer, in exchange for control of the
acquiree.
b)For the business combination involved more than one exchange transaction, the cost of the
combination is the aggregate cost of the individual transactions.
c)The costs directly attributed to business combination are included in the cost of combination;
d)When a business combination agreement provides for an adjustment to the cost of the combination
contingent on future events, the Company includes the amount of that adjustment in the cost of the
combination at the acquisition date if the adjustment is probable and can be measured reliably.
②For the long-term investment obtained in any method other than business combination, the initial
cost is recognised as below.
A. If the long-term equity investment is obtained in cash consideration, the initial cost is the actual
purchase payment which includes directly related expenses, tax and other necessary expense.
B. If the long-term investment is obtained by issuing equity instruments, the initial cost is the fair value
of the issued equity shares. However, cash dividends declared but unpaid or profits are not included in
the cost. Direct costs attributed to issue equity instrument such as handling charges and commissions
are deducted from premium of equity instruments. If the premium is not sufficient for adjustment,
surplus resever and retained earning is adjusted respectively.
C. For the long-term investment invested by investors, the initial cost is the agreed value of the
investment agreement or contract unless the agreed value is not fair.
D. For the long-term investment obtained by non-monetary asset exchange, the initial cost is
recognised according to “Chinese Accounting Standard (2006) No. 7: Non-monetary asset exchange”.
E. For the long-term investment obtained by restructuring, the initial cost is recognised according to
“Chinese Accounting Standard (2006) No. 12: Debt restructuring”.
59
③For the price paid including cash dividends or profits declared but unpaid, it is recognised as
receivables separately rather than as initial cost of long-term equity instruments no matter which
method is obtained.
(2)Subsequent measurement
The Company adopts either cost method or equity method for the long-term equity investment
according to the extent of influence, existence of active market and availability of fair value. The equity
method is used when the Company has joint control or significant influence over the investee enterprise.
The cost method is used when the Company has control or does not have joint control or significant
influence over the investee enterprise and there is no quoted price in active market or there is no
reliable fair value.
① For the long-term investment under cost method, declared cash dividends or profits are recognised
as investment income for the current period when it incurred. The amount of investment income
recognised by the Company is limited to the amount distributed out of the accumulated net profits of
the investee enterprise that arose after the investment was made. The amount of profits or declared cash
dividends by the investee enterprise in excess of the above threshold is treated as return of investment
cost.
② For long-term equity investment under equity method, the Company adjusts carrying amount of the
long-term equity investment and recognises investment income according to the proportion of net profit
or loss after acquisition. The Company reduces carrying amount of the long-term investment regarding
to declared cash dividend or profit distribution.
For long-term equity investment under equity method, the Company recognises net losses incurred by
the investee enterprise to the extent that the carrying amount and the substantial net investment of the
long-term equity investment is reduced to zero except there is further obligation of the excess losses. If
the investee enterprise realises net profits in subsequent periods, the Company increase the carrying
amount of the investment above zero at the amount at which its share of profits exceeds its share of
previously unrecognized losses.
③The Company adopts the same manner of financial instrument for the impairment of long-term
equity investment which is measured under cost method and there is no quoted price in active market
or there is no reliable fair value. Impairment of long-term equity investments other than above refers to
accounting policy “Impirment of assets” of the Company.
④ On disposal of an equity investment, the difference between the carrying amount of the investment
and the sale proceeds actually received is recognised as an investment gain or loss for the current
period. When the equity method is adopted, change in equity of the investee other than profit or loss is
recorded in equity. On disposal of the equity investment, amount of change which is recorded in equity
previously is transferred to profit or loss for the current period regarding to the proportion of disposal.
11. Recognition and measurement of fixed assets
Fixed assets are tangible assets that: 1) are held for use in the production or supply of goods or services,
for rental to others, or for administrative purposes; and 2) have useful life more than one year. It
includes Property and building, machinery, and vechile.
(1) A fixed asset should be initially recognised at cost when:
① it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the asset will flow to the Company; and
② the cost of the asset can be measured reliably.
(2) Depreciation
Subsequent expenditure relating to a fixed asset is added to the carrying amount of the asset when the
expenditure qualifies for capitalisation. Subsequent expenditure that does not qualify for capitalisation
is recognised as an expense.
60
The depreciation method adopted by the Company is straight-line method.
The categories, estimated useful lives, residual value, and annual depreciation rate of fixed assets are
shown as following:
The categories Estimated Useful Lives (years) Residual value (%) Annual Depreciation Rate (%)
Property and building 15-30 3 6.47-3.23
General machinery 7-18 3 13.86-5.39
Specific machinery 8 3 12.13
Vehicle 6 3 16.17
Electornic equipment 4-5 3 24.25-19.40
The Company reviews the useful life, estimated residual value and depreciation method of fixed
assets at the end of each financial year. If expectations are significantly different from previous
estimates, the useful life should be revised accordingly. If expectations are significantly different from
previous estimates, the estimated residual value is also revised accordingly. If there has been a
significant change in the expected realisation pattern of economic benefits from those assets, the
depreciation method is changed accordingly. The changes in useful life, estimated residual value and
depreciation method is treated as change in accounting estimates.
(3) Fixed assets acquired under finance lease
The Company identifies a lease of asset as finance lease when substantially all the risks and rewards
incidental to legal ownership of the asset are transferred.
A fixed asset acquired under finance lease is valued at the lower of the fair value of the leased asset and
the present value of the minimum lease payments at the inception of lease.
The depreciation method of fixed assets acquired under finance lease is consistents with that for
depreciable assets owned by the Company. If the Company can reasonably confirm that it will obtain
the ownership of leased asset at the end of lease term, the leased asset should be depreciated during the
useful life of the leased asset. If the Company can not reasonably confirm that it will obtain the
ownership of leased asset at the end of lease term, the leased asset should be depreciated during shorter
of the useful life of the leased asset and the lease term.
(4) Impairment of fixed asset refers to accounting policy “Impirment of assets” of the Company.
12. Construction in progress
(1)Construction in progress of the Company includes constructing property, building and equipments
required installation.
(2)Construction in progress is recorded at actual costs incurred. It also includes borrowing costs
eligible for capitalization and gain or loss of exchange difference.
(3) The Company transfers construction in progress to fixed assets when the project is completed
or the project is available for use. For the construction in progress which is capable of operating in the
manner intended by management without the final account for completed project, an estimated value is
recognised as its cost and the depreciation amount is based on the estimated value. When the final
account for completed project is obtained, cost of the asset should be adjusted to the actual cost.
However, there is no need to adjust depreciation of the asset in prior period.
(4)Impairment of construction in progress refers to accounting policy “Impirment of assets” of the
Company.
13. Recognition and measurement of intangible assets
61
Intangible assets are identifiable non-monetary asset that are owned or controlled by the Company and
are without physical substance.
(1) Recognition of intangible assets
The Company recognises an intangible asset when that intangible asset fulfills both of the following
conditions:
a) It is probable that the economic benefits associated with that asset will flow to the Company; and
b) The cost of that asset can be measured reliably.
Expenditures incurred during the research phase of an internal project should be recognised as expenses
in the period in which they are incurred. Expenditures incurred during the development phase of an
internal project should be recognized as an intangible asset if, and only if, the Company can
demonstrate all of the following:
① the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or
sale;
② its intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it;
③ The method that the intangible asset will generate probable future economic benefits includes the
Company can demonstrate the existence of a market for the output of the intangible asset or the
intangible asset itself or, if it is to be used internally, the usefulness of the intangible asset;
④ the availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development
and to use or sell the intangible asset; and
⑤ its ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its
development
(2) Measurement of intangible assets
① An intangible asset is measured initially at its cost.
② Measurement after Recognition
A. For an intangible asset with finite useful life, the Company estimates its useful life at the time of
acquisition and amortizes it during its useful life in a reasonable and systematic way. The amount of
amortization is allocated to relevant costs and expenses according to the nature of beneficial items. The
Company does not amortize intangible asset with indefinite useful life.
B. Impirment of intangible assets refers to accounting policy “Impairment of assets” of the Company.
14. Impairment of assets
It suggests that an asset may be impaired if there is any of the following indications:
(1) during the period, an asset's market value has declined significantly more than it would be
expected as a result of the passage of time or normal use during the current period;
(2) significant changes with an adverse effect on the Company have taken place during the period, or
will take place in the near future, in the technological, market, economic or legal environment in which
the Company operates or in the market to which an asset is dedicated;
(3) market interest rates or other market rates of return on investments have increased during the
period, and those increases are likely to affect the discount rate used in calculating an asset's value in
use and decrease the asset's recoverable amount materially;
(4) evidence is available of obsolescence or physical damage of an asset;
(5) the asset becomes idle, or the Comopany plans to discontinue or to dispose of an asset before the
previously expected date;
(6) evidence is available from internal reporting that indicates that the economic performance of an
asset is, or will be, worse than expected, for example, the net cash flow generated from assets or the
62
operating profit (or loss) realized by assets is lower (higher) than the excepted amount, etc.; and
(7) Other evidence indicates that assets may be impaired.
The Company assesses long-term equity investment, fixed assets, construction materials, constructions
in progress and intangible assets (except for those with uncertain useful life) that apply Accounting
Standard for Business Enterprises No. 8 - Impairment of assets at the balance sheet date. If there is any
indication that an asset may be impaired, the Company should assess the asset for impairment and
estimate the recoverable amount of the impaired asset.
Recoverable amount is measured as the higher of an asset's fair value less costs to sell and the present
value of estimated future cash flows from continuing use of the asset. If carrying amount of an asset is
higher than its recoverable amount, the carrying amount of this asset should be written down to its
recoverable amount with the difference recognized as impairment loss and charged to profit or loss
accordingly. Simultaneously a provision for impairment loss should be made.
There is any indication that an asset may be impaired, the Company usually estimates its recoverable
amount on an individual item basis. However if it’s not possible to estimate recoverable amount of the
individual asset, the Company should determine the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to
which the asset belongs.
An asset's cash-generating unit is the smallest group of assets that includes the asset and generates cash
inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets.
Identification of cash-generating unit is based on whether the cash inflows generated by the
cash-generating unit are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets.
The Company assesses goodwills acquired in a business combination and intangible assets with
uncertain useful life for impairment each year no matter whether indication that an asset may be
impaired exists or not. Impairment assessment of goodwill is carried together with the impairment
assessment of related cash-generating unit or group of cash-generating units.
Once impairment loss is recognized, it cannot be reversed in subsequent financial period.
15. Recognition and measurement of borrowing cost
(1) Capitalization and capitalization period of borrowing costs
The costs of borrowings designated for acquisition or construction of qualifying assets should be
capitalized as part of the cost of the assets. Capitalisation of borrowing costs starts when a) the capital
expenditures have incurred, b) the borrowing costs have incurred and c) the acquisition and
construction activities that are necessary to bring the asset to its expected usable condition have
commenced. Other borrowing costs that do not qualify for capitalization should be expensed off during
current period.
Capitalization of borrowing costs should be suspended during periods in which the acquisition or
construction is interrupted abnormally, and the interruption period is three months or longer. These
borrowing costs should be recognized directly in profit or loss during the current period. However,
capitalization of borrowing costs during the suspended periods should continue when the interruption is
a necessary part of the process of bringing the asset to working condition for its intended use.
Capitalization of borrowing costs ceases when the qualifying asset being acquired or constructed is
substantially ready for its intended use. Subsequent borrowing costs should be expensed off during the
period in which they are incurred.
(2) Calculation method of capitalization for borrowing costs
To the extent that funds are borrowed specifically for the purpose of acquiring or constructing a
qualifying asset, the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalization on that asset is determined as
the actual borrowing costs incurred on that borrowing during the period less any investment income on
the temporary investment of the borrowing.
To the extent that funds are borrowed generally and used for the purpose of acquiring or constructing a
qualifying asset, the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalization shall be determined by
applying a capitalization rate to the weighted average of excess of accumulated expenditures on
63
qualifying asset over that on specific purpose borrowing. The capitalization rate is the weighted
average of the borrowing costs applicable to the borrowings of the Company that are outstanding
during the period, other than borrowings made specifically for the purpose of acquiring or constructing
a qualifying asset.
16. Revenue
(1)Construction contract revenue
a)When the outcome of a construction contract can be estimated reliably, contract revenue and contract
costs associated with the construction contract is recognised as revenue and expenses respectively by
reference to the stage of completion of the contract activity at the balance sheet date. The outcome of a
construction contract can be estimated reliably when all the following conditions are satisfied:
(a) Total contract revenue can be measured reliably;
(b) It is probable that the economic benefits associated with the contract will flow to the entity;
(c) Both the contract costs to complete the contract and the stage of contract completion at the balance
sheet date can be measured reliably; and
(d) The contract costs attributable to the contract can be clearly identified and measured reliably.
When the outcome of a construction contract can be estimated reliably, contract revenue and contract
costs associated with the construction contract is recognised as revenue and expenses respectively by
reference to the stage of completion of the contract activity at the balance sheet date.
b) When the outcome of a construction contract cannot be estimated reliably and contract costs are
expected to be recoverable, revenue is recognised only to the extent of contract costs incurred that it is
probable will be recoverable. Contract costs are recognised as an expense in the period in which they
are incurred. Contract costs that are not probable of being recovered are recognised as an expense
immediately and no revenue is recognised.
c) When the construction contract is interrupted, the Company does not recognise any revenue and
gross profit for the current period. If the contract does not recommce in 3 years, gross profit recognized
is written off and the contract costs are recognized in the third and fourth year evently.
d) If the accumulative estimated contract costs exceed the contract revenue, an estimated loss should
be recognized as an expense during the current financial period.
(2)Sale of goods
The Company recognises revenue from sale of goods when all the following conditions have been
satisfied:
(i) The Company has transferred to the buyer the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the
goods;
(ii) The Company retains neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated
with ownership nor effective control over the goods sold;
(iii) The relevant amount of revenue and costs can be measured reliably.; and
(iv) The economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the Company
(3)Rendering of services:
①Revenue associated with the transaction is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the
transaction at the balance sheet date.The service revenue is recognised at the balance sheet date
according to the percentage of completion of the services when (i) the total revenue and total cost can
be reliably measured, (ii) the economic benefit pertaining to the service will flow to the Company; (iii)
the percentage of completion can be determined reliably.
②When the outcome of the transaction involving the rendering of services cannot be estimated reliably
64
at the balance sheet date, revenue is recognised according to the following:
A. When it is probable that the Company will recover the transaction costs incurred, revenue is
recognised only to the extent of the expenses recognised that are recoverable. and the costs incurred are
recognised as an expense.
B. When it is not probable that the costs incurred will be recovered, revenue is not recognised and the
costs incurred are recognised as an expense.
(4)Revenue arising from the use by others of the Company’s assets
Revenue arising from the use by others of the Company’s assets includes interest revenue and royalty
revenue. The Company recognised revenue arising from the use by others of the Company’s assets
when (a) it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the
Company and (b) the amount of the revenue can be measured reliably.
17. Accrued costs
The Company accrues the extended cost at 2.5% of the actual total production cost over the finished
products and charges it into the costs of sales for the period.
18. Income tax
The Company adopts the balance sheet liability method for corporate income taxes.
(1) Deferred tax asset
① Where there are deductible temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets or
liabilities in the balance sheet and their tax bases, a deferred tax asset shall be recognised for all those
deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available
against which the deductible temporary difference can be utilized. Deferred tax assets should be
measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the
liability is settled.
② At the balance sheet date, where there is strong evidence showing that sufficient taxable profit will
be available against which the deductible temporary difference can be utilized, the deferred tax asset
unrecognized in prior period shall be recognized.
③ The Company assesses the carrying amount of deferred tax asset at the balance sheet date. If it’s
probable that sufficient taxable profit will not be available against which the deductible temporary
difference can be utilized, the Company shall write down the carrying amount of deferred tax asset, or
reverse the amount written down later when it’s probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available.
(2) Deferred tax liability
A deferred tax liability shall be recognized for all taxable temporary differences, which are differences
between the carrying amount of an asset or liability in the balance sheet and its tax base, and measured
at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is
settled.
19. Basis of consolidation
(1)Scope of consolidation
Consolidated financial statements are included all subsidiaries of the parent.
When the parent owns, directly or indirectly through subsidiaries, more than half of the voting power
of investee company, the investee company is regarding as subsidiary and included consolidated
financial statements. If the parent owns half or less of the voting power of an entity when there is any
following condition incurred, the investee company is regarding as subsidiary and included
65
consolidated financial statements.
A. power over more than half of the voting rights by virtue of an agreement with other investors;
B. power to govern the financial and operating policies of the entity under a statute or an agreement;
C. power to appoint or remove the majority of the members of the board of directors or equivalent
governing body;
D. power to cast the majority of votes at meetings of the board of directors or equivalent governing
body and control of the entity is by that board or body.
If there is evidence suggesting that no control of investee company exists, the investee company does
not be included in the consolidated financial statements.
(2)Principle of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements are based on the financial statements of individual subsidiaries
which are included in the consolidation scope and prepared after adjustment of long-term equity
investment under equity method and elimination effect of intragroup transaction .
(3)Minority interests
The portion of the equity of a subsidiary that are not owned, directly or indirectly through subsidiaries,
by the parent is presented as minority interest in the consolidated balance sheet.
The portion of the profit or loss of a subsidiary that are not owned, directly or indirectly through
subsidiaries, by the parent is presented as minority interest in the consolidated income statement.
(4)Excess losses
The amount which losses of subsidiaries during the period exceeds the proportion of minority’s
obligation is offset minority interest as agreed in the subsidiaries’ association or agreement and
minorities have ability to bear the excess losses. Otherwise, the excess losses are offset equity of the
parent company. Profits made afterward by subsidiaries are attributable to equity of the parent
company before recovery of excess losses.
(5)Increase or decrease of the subsidiaries
For any subsidiary acquired by the Company through business combination under the common control,
when the consolidated balance sheet for the current period are being prepared, the amount at the
beginning of the period in the consolidated balance sheet is made corresponding modification. For
addition business combination not under common control during the reporting period, the Company
makes no adjustment for the the amount at the beginning of the period in the consolidated balance sheet.
When disposing subsidiary during the reporting period, the Company makes no adjustment for the
amount at the beginning of the period in the consolidated balance sheet.
For any subsidiary acquired by the Company through business combination under the common control,
when the consolidated income statement for the current period are being prepared, revenue, expense
and profit for the period from the beginning of the consolidated period to the year end of the reporting
period are included in the consolidated income statement. For addition business combination not under
common control during the reporting period, revenue, expense and profit for the period from
acquisition date to the year end of the reporting period is included in the consolidated income statement.
When disposing subsidiary during the reporting period, revenue, expense and profit for the period from
the beginning to the disposal date are included in the consolidated income statement.
For any subsidiary acquired by the Company through business combination under the common control,
when the consolidated cash flow statement for the current period are being prepared, cashflow for the
66
period from the beginning of the consolidated period to the year end of the reporting period is included
in the consolidated cash flow statement. For addition business combination not under common control
during the reporting period, cashflow for the period from acquisition date to the year end of the
reporting period is included in the consolidated cash flow statement. When disposing subsidiary during
the reporting period, cashflow for the period from the beginning to the disposal date is included in the
consolidated cash flow statement.
Note 5. Note of change in accounting policies, estimations, and errors
1、Changes in accounting policies
The Group adopted Chinese Accounting Standards (2006) for the first time. According to “Chinese
Accounting Standards (2006) No. 38: the first adoption of the Chinese Accounting Standards:” and
“Issued Public Securities Company Dicloseure Norms Quiz NO.7 –- during the old and new accounting
standards transaction period, comparison of the financial accounting information’s preparation and
disclosure” issued by China Secureties Regulartory Commission documented as Zheng Jian Kuai Ji Zi
No. [2007] 10, “Chinese Accounting Standards (2006) interpretation No.10” (documented as Cai Kuai
[2007] No. 14) and “Suggestion from Accountant Expert Team on Implementation of Accounting
Standards”, the retrospective restatements are as following:
(1)According to Chinese Accounting Standards (2006), the Company adopts balance sheet liability
method instead of taxes payable method. It is a change in accounting policies and retrospective
restatement is applying for comparative financial statement of fiscal year 2007. The effect of
retrospective restatement is as following:

cost method at the beginning”. Also “difference between initial cost of long-term equity investment and
consideration of cash, transferred non-monetary asset, and carrying value of bearing liability should be
recognised in capital surplus (capital premium or share premiu). If the balance of capital surplus
(capital premium or share premiu) is not sufficient for deduction, retained earning should be adjusted
respectively”. It is a change in accounting policies and comparative financial statement is restated
retrospectively. The effect of retrospective restatement is as following:
