For business combinations, which the agreement date was before 31 March 2004, goodwill arising on these acquisitions is accounted for in accordance with IAS 22, “Business Combinations”.
In accordance with IAS 22, the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the Company’s interest in the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired as at the date of the exchange transaction is recorded as goodwill and recognised as an asset in the balance sheet. Goodwill is carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. The amortisation period and the amortisation method are reviewed annually at each financial year end.
IFRS 3 requires goodwill arising from acquisitions to be determined as the excess of the cost of acquisition over the Group’s interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities on the date of acquisition and is measured after initial recognition at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Under IFRS 3, goodwill is not required to be amortised but to be tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired.

(f) Property, plant and equipment and depreciation
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss. The initial cost of an asset comprises its purchase price and any directly attributable costs of bringing the asset to its working condition and location for its intended use. Expenditure incurred after the property, plant and equipment have been put into operation, such as repairs and maintenance and overhauls costs, are recognised as an expense in the year in which it is incurred. In situations where it is probable that the expenditure has resulted in an increase in the future economic benefits expected to be obtained from the use of the asset, the expenditure is capitalised as an additional cost of the asset. When assets are sold or retired, their cost and accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts and any gain or loss resulting from their disposal is included in the income statement.
Depreciation is calculated using the straight line method to write off the cost, after taking into account the estimated residual value, of each asset over its expected useful life. The expected useful lives are as follows:
| Buildings | 20 to 40 years |
|---|---|
| Plant and machinery | 2 to 15 years |
| Motor vehicles | 2 to 10 years |
The useful lives of assets and depreciation method are reviewed periodically.
(g) Construction in progress
Construction in progress represents buildings under construction and machinery under installation and testing and is stated at cost. This includes costs of construction, attributable borrowing costs and other direct costs capitalised during the period of construction, installation or testing up to the date of commissioning.
Construction in progress is not depreciated until such time as the assets are completed and put into operational use.
(h) Investment property
Investment property, principally comprising office buildings, is held for long-term rental yields and is not occupied by the Group. Investment property is treated as a long-term investment and is stated at historical cost less depreciation and impairment. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line method to write off the cost of each property, to their residual values over their estimated useful lives ranging from 20 to 40 years.

3. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(i) Intangible assets
i) Research and development
Research expenditure is recognised as an expense as incurred. Costs incurred on development projects (relating to the design and testing of new or improved products) are recognised as intangible assets when it is probable that the project will be a success considering its commercial and technological feasibility, and only if the cost can be measured reliably. Other development expenditures are recognised as an expense as incurred. Development costs previously recognised as an expense are not recognised as an asset in a subsequent period. Development costs that have been capitalised are amortised from the commencement of the commercial production of the product on a straight-line basis over the period of its expected benefit, not exceeding five years.
ii) Computer software development cost
Costs associated with developing or maintaining computer software programmes are recognised as an expense as incurred. Costs that are directly associated with identifiable and unique software products controlled by the Group and have probable economic benefits exceeding the cost beyond one year, are recognised as intangible assets. Direct costs include staff costs of the software development team and an appropriate portion of relevant overheads.
Expenditure that enhances or extends the performance of computer software programmes beyond their original specifications is recognised as a capital improvement and added to the original cost of the software. Computer software development costs recognised as assets are amortised using the straight-line method over their useful lives.
iii) Technology rights
Technology rights are confidential techniques or experience that has been applied to productions or operation. Expenditure on acquired technology rights is capitalised and amortised using the straight-line method over their useful lives, but not exceeding 10 years.
iv) Other intangible assets
Expenditure on acquired patents, trademarks and licences is capitalised and amortised using the straight-line method over their useful lives, but not exceeding 10 years. Intangible assets are not revalued.

BOE TECHNOLOGY GROUP CO., LTD.
3. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(j) Investments
The Group classified its investments in debt and equity securities into the following categories: trading, held-to-maturity and available-for-sale. The classification is dependent on the purpose for which the investments were acquired. Management determines the classification of its investments at the time of the purchase and re-evaluates such designation on a regular basis. Investments that are acquired principally for the purpose of generating a profit from short-term fluctuations in price are classified as trading investments and included in current assets. For the purpose of these financial statements short term is defined as 3 months. Investments with a fixed maturity that management has the intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity and are included in non-current assets, except for maturities within 12 months from the balance sheet date, which are classified as current assets. Investments intended to be held for an indefinite period of time, which may be sold in response to needs for liquidity or changes in interest rates, are classified as available-for-sale; and are included in non-current assets unless management has the express intention of holding the investment for less than 12 months from the balance sheet date or unless they will need to be sold to raise operating capital, in which case they are included in current assets.
Purchases and sales of investments are recognised on the trade date, which is the date that the Group commits to purchase or sell the asset. Cost of purchase includes transaction costs. Trading and available-for-sale investments are subsequently carried at fair value. Held-to-maturity investments are carried at amortised cost using the effective yield method. Unrealised gain and losses arising from changes in the fair value of securities classified as available-for-sale are recognised in equity. Equity securities for which fair values cannot be measured reliably are recognised at cost less impairment. When securities classified as available-for-sale are sold or impaired, the accumulated fair value adjustments are included in the income statement as gains and losses from investment securities.
(k) Land use rights
Land use rights are the rights granted to the Group to develop, use and/or operate on a parcel of land within a pre-approved period of time. Upfront lump sum usage fees prepaid are recorded as land use rights, which are amortised on the straight-line basis over the pre-approved period, normally 50 years.
Page 54
BOE TECHNOLOGY GROUP CO., LTD.
3. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(l) Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realisable value. Cost is determined by the weighted average method. The cost of finished goods and work in progress comprises raw materials, direct labour, other direct costs and related production overheads (based on normal operating capacity), but excludes borrowing costs. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the costs of completion and selling expenses.
(m) Trade receivables
Trade receivables are carried at original invoice amount less provision made for impairment of these receivables. A provision for impairment of trade receivables is established when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of receivables. The amount of the provision is the difference between the carrying amount and the recoverable amount, being the present value of expected cash flows, discounted at the market rate of interest for similar borrowers.
(n) Loan to employees
Loans provided to employees for their welfare such as housing are recognised as loans to employees. Long-term loans are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective yield method. The fair value on initial recognition is based on discounted cash flows using a discount rate based on the borrowing rate which the directors expect would be available to the borrower.
(o) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash represents cash in hand and deposits with any banks or other financial institutions, which are repayable on demand.
Cash equivalents represent short term, highly liquid investments which are readily convertible into known amounts of cash with original maturities of three months or less and that are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.

BOE TECHNOLOGY GROUP CO., LTD.
3. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(p) Operating leases
i) A Group company is the lessee
Leases of property, plant and equipment where the Group has substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. Finance leases are capitalised at the inception of the lease at the lower of the fair value of the leased property or the present value of the minimum lease payments. Each lease payment is allocated between the liability and finance charges so as to achieve a constant rate on the finance balance outstanding. The corresponding rental obligations, net of finance charges, are included in other long-term payables. The interest element of the finance cost is charged to the income statement over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period. The property, plant and equipment acquired under finance leases are depreciated over the shorter of the useful life of the assets or the lease term.
Leases where a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are charged to the income statement on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.
ii) A Group company is the lessor
Assets leased out under operating leases are included in property, plant and equipment in the balance sheet. They are depreciated over their expected useful lives on a basis consistent with similar owned property, plant and equipment. Rental income (net of any incentives given to lessees) is recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Page 56
BOE TECHNOLOGY GROUP CO., LTD.
3. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(q) Provisions
A provision is recognised when, and only when an enterprise has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event and it is probable (i.e. more likely than not) that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Provisions are reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the amount of a provision is the present value of the expenditure expected to be required to settle the obligation.
i) Warranty
The Group recognises the estimated liability to repair or replace products still under warranty at the balance sheet date. This provision is calculated based on historical data of the level of repairs and replacements.
ii) Employee compensated absences entitlement
Employee compensated absences entitlement is provided by BOE-Hydis to their employees. Employee entitlements to annual leave and long service leave are recognised when they accrue to employees. A provision is made for the estimated liability for annual leave and long-service leave as a result of services rendered by employees up to the balance sheet date.
(r) Government grants
Grants from the government are recognised at their fair value where there is a reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and the Group will comply with all attached conditions.
Government grants relating to costs are deferred and recognised in the income statement over the period necessary to match them with the costs they are intended to compensate.
Government grants relating to the purchase of property, plant and equipment are included in non-current liabilities as other liabilities and are credited to the income statement on a straight line basis over the expected lives of the related assets.
Other government grants are recognized as income upon receipt.

BOE TECHNOLOGY GROUP CO., LTD.
3. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(s) Revenue recognition
Revenue comprises the invoiced value for the sale of goods and services net of value-added tax, rebates and discounts, and after eliminating sales within the Group. Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods are transferred to the buyer. Revenue from rendering of services is based on the stage of completion determined by reference to services performed to date as a percentage of total services to be performed.
Interest income is recognised on a time proportion basis, taking account of the principal outstanding and the effective rate over the period to maturity, when it is determined that such income will accrue to the Group. Dividends are recognised when the right to receive payment is established.
(t) Share capital
Ordinary shares are classified as equity.
Incremental external costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares, other than in connection with business combination, are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds. Share issue costs incurred directly in connection with a business combination are included in the cost of acquisition.
(u) Borrowings
Borrowings are recognised initially at the amount of proceeds received, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently stated at amortised cost using the effective yield method; any difference between proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognised in the income statement over the period of the borrowings.
When convertible bonds are issued by the Group, the fair value of the convertible bonds is determined using a market interest rate for an equivalent non-convertible bond; this amount is carried as liabilities on the amortised cost basis until extinguished on conversion or maturity of the bonds.

3. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(v) Deferred taxation
Deferred taxation is provided under the liability method in respect of significant temporary differences between the tax base of an asset or liability and its carrying amount in the balance sheet. The tax base of an asset or liability is the amount attributed to that asset or liability for tax purposes. Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which the deductible temporary difference can be utilised.
Deferred income tax is provided on temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures, except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

3. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(w) Foreign currency transactions
i) Measurement currency
Items included in the financial statements of each entity in the Group are measured using the currency that best reflects the economic substance of the underlying events and circumstances relevant to that entity (“the measurement currency”). The consolidated financial statements are presented in Renminbi, which is the measurement currency of the parent.
ii) Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the measurement currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, are recognised in the income statement.
Translation differences on debt securities and other monetary financial assets measured at fair value are included in foreign exchange gains and losses. Translation differences on non-monetary items such as equities held for trading are reported as part of the fair value gain or loss. Translation differences on available-for-sale equities are included in the revaluation reserve in equity.
iii) Group companies
Income statements and cash flows of foreign entities are translated into the Group’s reporting currency at average exchange rates for the year and their balance sheets are translated at the exchange rates ruling on 31 December. Exchange differences arising from the translation of the net investment in foreign entities and of borrowings and other currency instruments designated as hedges of such investments, are taken to shareholders’ equity. When a foreign entity is sold, such exchange differences are recognised in the income statement as part of the gain or loss on sale.
Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and translated at the closing rate.

3. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(x) Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs include interest charges and other costs incurred in connection with borrowing of funds, including amortisation of discounts or premiums relating to the borrowing, amortisation of ancillary costs incurred in connection with arranging borrowings and exchange differences arising from foreign currency borrowings to the extent that they are regarded as an adjustment to interest costs.
Borrowing costs are expensed as incurred, except when they are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of the property, plant and equipment, that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use in which case they are capitalised as part of the cost of that asset. Capitalisation of borrowing costs commences when expenditure for the asset and borrowing costs are being incurred and the activities to prepare the asset for its intended use are in progress. Borrowing costs are capitalised at the weighted average cost of the related borrowings until the asset is ready for its intended use. If the resulting carrying amount of the asset exceeds its recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recorded.
(y) Employee benefits
The Group participates in defined contribution employee benefits plans by respective local governments. Under the plans, the Group’s contribution is based on defined percentage of salaries and wages subject to certain salary ceilings. Contributions to the plans are charged to the income statement as incurred.
BOE Hydis Technology Co., Ltd. (“BOE-Hydis”) and Hyundai LCD, Inc. (“Hyundai LCD”), subsidiaries of the Company incorporated in the Republic of Korea, provide post-employment benefits to their employees and directors according to the statutory requirement. The subsidiaries’ employees and directors with more than one year of service are entitled to receive a lump-sum payment upon termination of their employment depending on their length of service and rate of pay at the time of termination, regardless of the reason for termination.
The defined benefit plan costs are assessed using the projected unit credit method: the cost of providing benefits is charged to the income statement so as to spread the regular cost over the service lives of employees. The defined benefit obligation is measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows using discount rates determined based on high quality fixed interest corporate bonds or Korean government bonds. Actuarial gains and losses are recognised over the average remaining service lives of employees.

3. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(z) Financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities carried on the balance sheet include cash and cash equivalent, short term investments, notes receivable and payable, trade and other receivables and payables, loans to non-related parties, balances with related parties and borrowings. The accounting policies on recognition and measurement of these items are disclosed in the respective accounting policies.
Financial instruments are classified as liabilities or equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement. Interest, dividends, gains and losses relating to a financial instrument classified as a liability, are reported as an expense or income. Distributions to holders of financial instruments classified as equity are charged directly to equity. Financial instruments are offset when the Group has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends to settle either on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
(aa) Impairment of assets
Property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, investments in associates and joint ventures and long term investments are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Whenever the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognised in the income statement for items of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, investments in associates and joint ventures and long term investments carried at cost. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s net selling price and value in use. The net selling price is the amount obtainable from the sale of an asset in an arm’s length transaction while value in use is the present value of estimated future cash flows expected to arise from the continuing use of an asset and from its disposal at the end of its useful life. Recoverable amounts are estimated for individual assets or, if it is not possible, for the cash-generating unit.
Reversal of impairment losses recognised in prior years is recorded when there is an indication that the impairment losses recognised for the asset no longer exist or has decreased. The reversal is recorded as income.
(bb) Contingencies
Contingent liabilities are not recognised in the consolidated financial statements. They are disclosed unless the possibility of an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote.
A contingent asset is not recognised in the consolidated financial statements but disclosed when an inflow of economic benefits is probable.

3. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(cc) Subsequent events
Post year end events that provide additional information about the Group’s position at the balance sheet date or those that indicate the going concern assumption is not appropriate (adjusting events) are reflected in the consolidated financial statements. Post year end events that are not adjusting events are disclosed in the notes when material.
(dd) Dividends
Dividends are recorded in the Group’s financial statements in the period in which they are approved by the Group’s shareholders.
(ee) Segment reporting
Business segments provide products or services that are subject to risks and returns that are different from those of other business segments. Geographical segments provide products or services within a particular economic environment that is subject to risks and returns that are different from those of components operating in other economic environments.
(ff) Business combination
Business combinations, which are acquisitions, are accounted for by using the purchase method of accounting. Cost of acquisition is the amount of cash or cash equivalent paid and fair value of the other purchase consideration given by the Company plus any cost directly attributable to the acquisition. All acquired assets and liabilities are initially recognized at fair value. Any excess, at the date of the exchange transaction, of the Company’s interest in the fair values of the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired over the cost of the acquisition, is recognised as negative goodwill and is amortised over the weighted-average useful life of the non-monetary assets acquired or recognised as income when the future losses identified in the acquirer’s plans occur.
(gg) Comparatives
Where necessary, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform with changes in presentation in the current year.

(hh) Financial instruments and risk management
(a) Financial risk factors
The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks, including the effects of changes in debt and equity market prices, foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. The Group’s overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the financial performance of the Group.
The overall responsibility for the implementation of the Group’s financial risk management policies lies with the Board of Directors.
(i) Foreign exchange risk
The Group operates internationally and is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from various currency exposures primarily with respect to Korean Won (KRW). BOE-Hydis uses forward contracts to buy or sell KRW to hedge their exposure to foreign exchange risk.
(ii) Interest rate risk
The Group’s income and operating cash flows are substantially independent of changes in market interest rates. The Group has no significant interest bearing assets. However, the Group has borrowings bearing variable interest rates and does not use interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges of future interest payments.
(iii) Credit risk
The Group has no significant concentrations of credit risk. The Group has policies in place to ensure that sales of products and services are made to customers with an appropriate credit history. Derivative counterparties and cash transactions are limited to high credit quality financial institutions. The Group’s historical experience in the collection of accounts receivable falls within the recorded allowances.
The carrying amount of receivables and cash represent the Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk. In respect of receivables and cash, the Group has policies in place to ensure that customers and counterparties and banks with whom the Group maintains its cash are of suitable credit standing.

(hh) Financial instruments and risk management (continued)
(a) Financial risk factors (continued)
(iv) Liquidity risk
The Group ensures that it maintains sufficient cash which is available to meet its liquidity requirements.
(b) Accounting for derivative financial instruments
Derivative financial instruments are initially recognised in the balance sheet at cost and are subsequently remeasured at their fair value.
Changes in the fair value of any derivative instruments are recognised immediately in the income statement.
(c) Fair value estimation
The carrying amounts of the following financial assets and financial liabilities approximate to their fair value at the balance sheet date: cash, notes receivables, trade receivables and payables, other receivables and payables, and borrowings.
4. SEGMENT INFORMATION
Since 2003, the Group commenced new business in providing different products and service. And, the Group’s risks and rates of return were affected predominantly by the differences in business segment. Therefore, business segments are adopted as its primary segment reporting format and geographical segments as its secondary reporting format.
For management purposes, the Group is organized on a worldwide basis into three major operating divisions - Cathode Radial Tube (CRT) business, Thin Film Transistor-Liquid Crystal Display (TFT-LCD) business and Digital Product and Service (DPS) business. Other operations include Precision Electronic Components & Materials business and so on. The divisions are the basis on which the Group reports its primary segment information.
