In making those risk assessments, we consider internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting principles used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 31 December 2006 (Expressed in Renminbi)
1 Background of the Company
BOE Technology Group Company Limited (the “Company”) was founded on 9 April 1993 in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”) as a joint stock limited company as part of the restructuring of Beijing Electronic Tube Factory (“BETF”). On the same date, the relevant business undertakings of BETF together with the related assets and liabilities were taken over by the Company.
The parent company of the Group is Beijing Orient Investment and Development Company Limited (“BOID”), which is a state-owned enterprise registered in Beijing, the PRC.
The Company and its subsidiaries (the “Group”) manufacture and sell electronic products, invest in enterprises engaged in the manufacture of electronic products and provide property management services to properties it owns.
The Company has its primary listing on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange issuing its first B shares on 10 June 1997, with further offerings of A shares on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange in 12 January 2001 and 28 September 2006, and additional B shares on 16 January 2004.
2 Summary of significant accounting policies
(a) Statement of compliance
The consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRSs”) promulgated by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). IFRSs include all applicable individual IFRS, International Accounting Standards (“IAS”) and related interpretations.
A summary of the significant accounting policies adopted in the preparations of the financial statements is set out below.
The Company also prepares a set of financial statements which complies with the PRC Accounting Rules and Regulations (“PRC GAAP”). A reconciliation of the Group’s operating results for the year and the equity attributable to equity shareholders of the Company under IFRSs and the PRC GAAP is presented as unaudited supplementary financial information on pages 63 to 65.
10
2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
(b) Basis of preparation
The consolidated financial statements are presented in Renminbi (“RMB”), which is the Company’s functional and presentation currency, rounded to the nearest thousand. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for the measurement at fair value of financial instruments in accordance with IAS 39, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement .
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRSs requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factor that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and any future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
Judgments made by management in the application of IFRSs that have significant effect on the consolidated financial statements and estimates with a significant risk of material adjustment in the next year are discussed in note 32.
The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these financial statements, and have been applied consistently by Group entities.
The comparative income statement has been re-presented as if the operation discontinued during the current period had been discontinued from the start of the comparative period (see note 5).
Notwithstanding that the Group had accumulated losses and net current liabilities as at 31 December 2006 of RMB2,231,983,000 (2005: RMB461,183,000) and RMB2,277,033,000 (2005: RMB239,837,000) respectively, management is of the opinion that the Group has the ability to continue as a going concern, as the Group has performed the following measures:
-
On 18 January 2007, the Company has disposed of part of the shareholdings in TPV Technology Limited (“TPV”), an associate of the Company and received RMB1,036,679,000.
-
On 9 April 2007, Beijing BOE Optoelectronics Technology Co., Ltd. (“BOEOT”), a subsidiary of the Company, has signed an agreement with the banks to extend the repayment schedule for the loans matured in 2007, amounting to RMB1,278,797,000, to the following year.
The Company’s ultimate holding company guaranteed to provide continuous financial support to the Company for the next 12 months to 31 December 2007. Accordingly, management consider it is appropriate that the consolidated financial statements of the Group are prepared on a going concern basis and do not include any adjustments that would be required should the Group fails to continue as a going concern.
11
2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
(c) Basis of consolidation
(i) Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group. Control exists when the Group has the power, directly or indirectly, to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. In assessing control, potential voting rights that presently are exercisable are taken into account. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date of that control ceases.
Minority interests at the balance sheet date, being the portion of the net assets of subsidiaries attributable to equity interests that are not owned by the Company, whether directly or indirectly, are presented in the consolidated balance sheet and statement of changes in equity within equity, separately from equity attributable to the equity shareholders of the Company.
Minority interests in the results of the Group are presented on the face of the consolidated income statement as an allocation of the total profit or loss for the year between minority interests and the equity shareholders of the Company.
Where losses applicable to the minority exceed the minority’s interest in the equity of a subsidiary, the excess, and any further losses applicable to the minority, are charged against the Group’s interest except to the extent that the minority has a binding obligation to, and is able to, make additional investment to cover the losses. If the subsidiary subsequently reports profits, the Group’s interest is allocated all such profits until the minority’s share of losses previously absorbed by the Group has been recovered.
(ii) Associates and jointly controlled entities
Associates are those entities in which the Group has significant influence, but not control, over the financial and operating policies. Jointly controlled entities are those entities over whose activities the Group has joint control, established by contractual agreement and requiring unanimous consent for strategic financial and operating decisions. Associates and jointly controlled entities are accounted for using the equity method. The consolidated financial statements include the Group’s share of the income and expenses of associates and jointly controlled entities, after adjustments to align the accounting policies with those of the Group, from the date that significant influence or joint control commences until the date that significant influence or joint control ceases. When the Group’s share of losses exceeds its interest in associates and jointly controlled entities, the Group’s carrying amount is reduced to nil and recognition of further losses is discontinued except to the extent that the Group has obligation or has made payments on behalf of the associates or jointly controlled entity.
12
2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
(c) Basis of consolidation (continued)
(iii) Transactions eliminated on consolidation
Intra-group balances and any unrealised income and expenses arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements. Unrealised gains arising from transactions with associates or jointly controlled entities are eliminated against the investment to the extent of the Group’s interest in the associates or jointly controlled entities. Unrealised losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealised gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment.
(d) Foreign currency
(i) Foreign currency transactions
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the respective functional currencies of the Group entities at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at that date. The foreign currency gain or loss on monetary items is the difference between amortised cost in the functional currency at the beginning of the period, adjusted for effective interest and payments during the period, and the amortised cost in foreign currency translated at the exchange rate at the end of the period. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are measured at fair value are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at the date that fair value was determined. Foreign exchange differences arising on retranslation are recognised in profit or loss, except for those eligible for capitalisation as construction in progress (see note 2 (i) ).
(ii) Foreign operations
The assets and liabilities of foreign operations, including goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on acquisition, are translated to RMB at exchange rates at the reporting date. The income and expenses of foreign operations are translated to RMB at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions.
Foreign currency differences are recognised directly in equity. When a foreign operation is disposed of, in part or in full, the relevant amount recognised in equity is transferred to profit or loss.
(e) Property, plant and equipment
(i) Recognition and measurement
Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment loss (see note 2 (n) ). Cost includes expenditure that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the assets. The cost of self-constructed assets includes the cost of materials and direct labour, any other costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to a working condition and location for its intended use, and the costs of dismantling and removing the items and restoring the site on which they are located.
When parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment.
13
2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
(e) Property, plant and equipment (continued)
(ii) Subsequent costs
The cost of replacing part of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognised in the carrying amount of the item if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the part will flow to the Group and its cost can be measured reliably. The costs of the day-today servicing of property, plant and equipment are recognised in profit or loss as incurred.
(iii) Disposal
Gains or losses arising from the retirement or disposal of property, plant and equipment are determined as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognised in the profit or loss on the date of retirement or disposal.
(iv) Depreciation
Depreciation is charged to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of each part of an item of property, plant and equipment, after taking into account its estimated residual value. The estimated useful lives for the current and comparative periods are as follows:
| Years | Estimated residual value | |
|---|---|---|
| as a percentage of costs | ||
| Buildings | 20 to 40 years | 3%-10% |
| Plant and equipment | 2 to 15 years | 0%-10% |
| Motor vehicles | 2 to 10 years | 0%-10% |
Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual value are reassessed at the reporting date.
(f) Financial instruments
(i) Non-derivative financial instruments
The Group classifies its financial instruments into different categories at inception, depending on the purpose for which the assets were acquired or the liabilities were incurred. The categories are: fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables, held-to-maturity investments, available-for-sale financial assets and other financial liabilities.
Non-derivative financial instruments are recognised initially at fair value plus, for instruments not at fair value through profit or loss, any directly attributable transaction costs.
A financial instrument is recognised if the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets are derecognised if the Group’s contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial assets expire or if the Group transfers the financial assets to another party without retaining control or substantially all risks and rewards of the assets. Regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are accounted for at trade date, i.e. the date that the Group commits itself to purchase or sell the asset. Financial liabilities are derecognised if the Group’s obligation specified in the contract expire or are discharged or cancelled.
14
2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
(f) Financial instruments (continued)
(i) Non-derivative financial instruments (continued)
Fair value through profit or loss
An instrument is classified as at fair value through profit or loss if it is held for trading or is designated as such upon initial recognition. Financial instruments are designated at fair value through profit or loss if the Group manages such investments and makes purchase and sale decisions based on fair value. Upon initial recognition, attributable transaction costs are recognised in profit or loss when incurred. Financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss are re-measured at fair value at the balance sheet date, and changes therein are recognised in profit or loss.
Held-to-maturity investments
Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity that the Group has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. Held to maturity investments are initially recognised in the balance sheet at fair value plus transaction costs. Subsequently, they are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment loss.
Available-for-sale financial assets
The Group’s investment in equity securities and certain debt securities are classified as available-for-sale financial assets. Subsequent to initial recognition, they are measured at fair value and changes therein, other than impairment loss, and foreign exchange gains and losses on available-for-sale monetary items, are recognised directly in equity. When an investment is derecognised, the cumulative gain or loss in equity is transferred to profit or loss.
Other
Other non-derivative financial instruments are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment loss.
(ii) Derivative financial instruments
Derivative financial instruments are recognised initially at fair value; attributable transaction costs are recognised in profit or loss when incurred. Subsequent to initial recognition, derivatives are measured at fair value, and gain or loss on re-measurements to fair value is charged immediately to the profit or loss.
15
2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
(f) Financial instruments (continued)
(iii) Compound financial instruments
Compound financial instruments issued by the Group comprise convertible debentures that can be converted to share capital at the option of the holder, and the number of shares to be issued does not vary with changes in their fair value.
The liability component of a compound financial instrument is recognized initially at the fair value of a similar liability that does not have an equity conversion option. The equity component is recognised initially at the difference between the fair value of the compound financial instrument as a whole and the fair value of the liability component. Any directly attributable transaction costs are allocated to the liability and equity components in proportion to their initial carrying amounts.
Subsequent to initial recognition, the liability component of a compound financial instrument is measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, unless it is designated at fair value through profit or loss. The equity component of a compound financial instrument is not re-measured subsequent to initial recognition.
(iv) Share capital
Ordinary shares
Incremental costs directly attributable to issue of ordinary shares and share option are recognised as a deduction from equity.
Repurchase of share capital
When share capital recognised as equity is repurchased, the amount of the consideration paid, including directly attributable costs, is recognised as deduction from equity. Repurchased shares are classified as treasury shares and are presented s deduction from the total equity.
(g) Intangible assets
(i) Goodwill
All business combinations are accounted for by applying the purchase method. Goodwill (negative goodwill) arises on acquisition of subsidiaries, associates and jointly controlled entities. Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of the acquisition over the Group’s interest in the net fair value of the net identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquiree. When the excess is negative (negative goodwill), it is recognised immediately in profit or loss.
Goodwill arising on the acquisition of a minority interest in a subsidiary represents the excess of the cost of the additional investment over the carrying amount of the net assets acquired at the date of exchange.
Goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment loss. Goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units and is tested annually for impairment (see note 2 (n) ). In respect of associates, the carrying amount of goodwill is included in the carrying amount of the investment in the associate.
On disposal of a cash generating unit, an associate or a jointly controlled entity during the year, any attributable amount of purchased goodwill is included in the calculation of the profit or loss on disposal.

(ii) Research and development
Expenditure on research activities, undertaken with the prospect of gaining new scientific or technical knowledge and understanding, is recognised in profit or loss when incurred.
Development activities involved a plan or design for the production of new or substantially improved products and processes. Development expenditure are expensed as incurred as the related economic benefits generated from these developments have very limited useful lives.
- (iii) Other intangible assets
Other intangible assets that are acquired by the Group, which have finite useful lives, are measured at cost less accumulated amortisation (see below) and accumulated impairment loss (see note 2 (n) ).
(iv) Subsequent expenditure
Subsequent expenditure on capitalised intangible assets is capitalised only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which it relates. All other expenditure, including expenditure on internally generated goodwill and brands, is recognised in profit or loss when incurred.
(v) Amortisation
Amortisation is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of intangible assets, other than goodwill, from the date that they are available for use. Goodwill is systematically tested for impairment at each balance sheet date. The estimated useful lives for current and comparative periods are as follows:
Technology rights 8-20 years Patent 5-10 years Computer software 3-10 years
(h) Investments
- (i) Investment properties
Investment properties are properties held either to earn rental income or for capital appreciation or for both. Investment properties are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss (see note 2 (n) ).
Depreciation is provided to write off the cost, where appropriate, of each asset over its estimated useful life ranging from 20 to 40 years on a straight-line basis, after taking into account its estimated residual value. The useful lives and residual values are reassessed annually.
17
2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
(h) Investments (continued)
(i) Investment properties (continued)
A property interest under an operating lease is classified and accounted for as an investment property on a property-by-property basis when the Group holds it to earn rentals or for capital appreciation or both. Any such property interest under an operating lease classified as an investment property is carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment loss (see note 2 (n) ). Lease payments are accounted for as described in accounting policy (u) .
(ii) Other investments in debt and equity securities
Investments in equity securities that do not have quoted market price in an active market and whose fair value could not be measured reliably are recognised in the balance sheet at cost less impairment loss (see note 2( n )).
(i) Construction in progress
Construction in progress represents buildings, various plant and equipment under construction and pending installation, and is stated at cost less impairment loss (see note 2 (n) ). Cost comprises direct costs of construction, borrowing costs and foreign exchange differences on related borrowed funds to the extent that they are regarded as an adjustment to interest charges and exchange differences on the designated financial instruments (see notes 2 (d) and (w) ) during the period of construction.
Capitalisation of these costs ceases and the construction in progress is transferred to property, plant and equipment when the asset is substantially ready for its intended use.
No depreciation is provided in respect of construction in progress until it is completed and ready for its intended use.
(j) Trade and other receivables
Trade and other receivables are initially recognised at fair value and thereafter measured at amortised cost less impairment loss for bad and doubtful debts (see note 2 (n) ), except where the effect of discounting would be immaterial. In such cases, the receivables are measured at cost less impairment loss for bad and doubtful debts (see note 2 (n) ).
(k) Lease prepayments
Lease prepayments represent land use rights paid to the PRC’s governmental authorities. Land use rights are carried at cost less impairment loss (see note 2 (n) ) and are amortised on a straightline basis over the respective periods of the rights.
18
2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
(l) Inventories
Inventories, other than spare parts, tools and ancillary materials, are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of inventories is calculated using the weighted average cost formula, and includes expenditure incurred in acquiring the inventories and bringing them to their existing location and condition. In the case of manufactured inventories and work in progress, cost includes an appropriate share of production overheads based on normal operating capacity. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and selling expenses.
When inventories are sold, the carrying amount of those inventories is recognised as an expense in the period in which the related revenue is recognised. 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 the write-down or loss occurs. The amount of any reversal of any write-down of inventories, arising from an increase in net realisable value, is recognised as a reduction in the amount of inventories recognised as an expense in the period in which the reversal occurs.
Spare parts, tools and ancillary materials are stated at cost less provision for obsolescence.
(m) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and on hand, demand deposits with banks and other financial institutions, and short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, having been within three months of maturity at acquisition. Bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the Group’s cash management are also included as a component of cash and cash equivalents for the purpose of the consolidated cash flow statement.
(n) Impairment
(i) Financial assets
A financial asset is considered to be impaired if objective evidence indicates that one or more events have had a negative effect on the estimated future cash flows of the asset. If any such evidence exists, any impairment loss is determined and recognised as follows:
-
For unquoted equity securities and current receivables that are measured at cost, the impairment loss is calculated as the difference between the carrying amount of the financial asset and the estimated future cash flows, discounted at the current market rate of return for a similar financial asset where the effect of discounting is material. Impairment loss for current receivables are reversed if in a subsequent period the amount of the impairment loss decreases. Impairment loss for equity securities are not reversed.
-
For financial assets measured at amortised cost, the impairment loss is calculated as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows, discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate (i.e. the effective interest rate computed at initial recognition of these assets). An impairment loss in respect of an available-for-sale financial asset is calculated by reference to its current fair value.
Individually significant financial assets are tested for impairment on individual basis. The remaining financial assets are assessed collectively in groups that share similar credit risk characteristics.
19
2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
(n) Impairment (continued)
(i) Financial assets (continued)
All impairment loss are recognised in profit or loss. Any cumulative loss in respect of an available-for-sale financial asset recognised previously in equity is transferred into profit or loss.
An impairment loss is reversed if the reversal can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised. For financial assets measured at amortised cost and available-for-sale financial assets that are debt securities, the reversal is recognised in profit or loss. For available-for-sale financial assets that are equity securities, the reversal is recognised directly in equity. A reversal of an impairment loss shall not result in the asset’s carrying amount exceeding that which would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised in prior years.
(ii) Non financial assets
Internal and external sources of information are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indicator of impairment for the following assets or, an impairment loss previously recognised no longer exists or may have decreased:
-
property, plant and equipment;
-
construction in progress;
-
intangible assets;
-
lease prepayments;
-
investment properties;
-
other investments; and
-
goodwill.
If any such indication exists then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated.
An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or its cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount. A cash-generating unit is the smallest identifiable asset group that generates cash flows that largely are independent from other assets and groups.
Impairment loss are recognised in profit or loss. Impairment loss recognised in respect of cashgenerating units are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the cash-generating unit (or group of units) and then, to reduce the carrying amount of other assets in the unit (or group of units) on a pro rata basis, except that the carrying value of an asset will not be reduced below its individual fair value less costs to sell, or value in use, if determinable.
The recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.
20
2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
(n) Impairment (continued)
(ii) Non financial assets (continued)
An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. In respect of other assets, impairment loss recognised in prior periods are assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss has been recognised. Reversals of impairment loss are credited to the profit or loss in the year in which the reversals are recognised.
(o) Dividends
Dividends are recognised as a liability in the period which they are declared.
(p) Interest-bearing borrowings
Interest-bearing borrowings are recognised initially at fair value less attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, interest-bearing borrowings are stated at amortised cost with any difference between cost and redemption value being recognised in profit or loss over the period of the borrowings on an effective interest basis.
(q) Employees benefits
Obligations for contributions to defined contribution retirement schemes are recognised as an expense in profit or loss as incurred.
The Group’s net obligation in respect of lump sum long service amounts payable on cessation of employment in certain circumstances under the relevant statutory requirement is the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods. The obligation is calculated using the projected unit credit method, discounted to its present value and reduced by the fair value of any related assets. The discount rate is the yield at the reporting date on high quality fixed interest corporate bonds or government bonds that have maturity dates approximating the terms of the Group’s obligations.
(r) Provisions and contingent liabilities
A provision is recognised if, as a result of a past event, the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and, it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and risks specific to the liability.
Where it is not probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required, or the amount cannot be estimated reliably, the obligation is disclosed as a contingent liability, unless the probability of outflow of economic benefits is remote. Possible obligations, whose existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more future events are also disclosed as contingent liabilities unless the probability of outflow of economic benefits is remote.
21
2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
(s) Trade and other payables
Trade and other payables are initially recognised at fair value and thereafter stated at amortised cost unless the effect of discounting would be immaterial, in which case they are stated at cost.
(t) Revenue recognition
(i) Goods sold and services rendered
Revenue from the sale of goods is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of returns and allowances, trade discounts and volume rebates. Revenue is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer, recovery of the consideration is probable, the associated costs and possible return of goods can be estimated reliably, and there is no continuing management involvement with the goods.
(ii) Rental income
Rental income from investment properties is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Lease incentives granted are recognised as an integral part of the total rental income, over the term of the lease.
- (iii) Government grant
An unconditional government grant is recognised in profit or loss when the grant becomes receivable.
Other government grants are recognised initially as deferred income when there is reasonable assurance that they will be received and that the Group will comply with the conditions associated with the grant. Grants that compensate the Group for expenses incurred are recognised in profit or loss on a systematic basis in the same periods in which the expenses are incurred. Grants that compensate the Group for the cost of an asset are recognised in profit or loss on a systematic basis over the useful life of the asset.
(iv) Dividend income
Dividend income from other investments is recognised on the date that the Group’s right to receive the payment is established.
(v) Interest income
Interest income is recognised as it accrues using the effective interest method.
(u) Expenses
(i) Operating lease payments
Payments made under operating leases are recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Lease incentives received are recognised in profit or loss as an integral part of the total lease expense.
22
2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
(u) Expenses (continued)
- (ii) Net financing costs
Net financing costs comprise interest expenses on borrowings, interest receivable on bank deposits, dividend income, foreign currency gains and losses, and gains and losses on derivative financial instruments that are recognised in profit or loss. All borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss using the effective interest rate method.
Interest income is recognised as it accrues, using the effective interest method. Dividend income is recognised on the date the Group’s right to receive payments is established, which in the case of quoted securities is usually the ex-dividend date.
(v) Income tax expense
Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax expense is recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly to equity, in which case it is recognised in equity.
Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantially enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.
Deferred tax is recognised using the balance sheet method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is not recognised for the following temporary differences: the initial recognition of goodwill, the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit, and differences relating to investments in subsidiaries and jointly controlled entities to the extent that they probably will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rate that is expected to be applied to the temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the reporting date.
A deferred tax asset is recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the temporary difference can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised.
(w) Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs are expensed in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred, except to the extent that they are capitalised as being directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset which necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use.
The capitalisation of borrowing costs as part of the cost of a qualifying asset commences when expenditure for the asset is being incurred, borrowing costs are being incurred and activities that are necessary to prepare the asset for its intended use or sale are in progress. Capitalisation of borrowing costs is suspended or ceases when substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the qualifying asset for its intended use or sale are interrupted or complete.
23
2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
(x) Segment reporting
A segment is a distinguishable component of the Group that is engaged either in providing products or services (business segment), or in providing products or services within a particular economic environment (geographical segment), which is subject to risks and rewards that are different from those of other segments.
In accordance with the Group’s internal financial reporting system, the Group has chosen business segment information as the primary reporting format and geographical segment information as the secondary reporting format for the purposes of these financial statements.
Segment revenue, expenses, results, assets and liabilities include items directly attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis to that segment. For example, segment assets may include inventories, trade receivables and property, plant and equipment. Segment revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities are determined before intra-group balances and intra-group transactions are eliminated as part of the consolidation process, except to the extent that such intra-group balances and transactions are between group entities within a single segment. Inter-segment pricing is based on similar terms as those available to other external parties.
Segment capital expenditure is the total cost incurred during the period to acquire segment assets (both tangible and intangible) that are expected to be used for more than one period.
Unallocated items mainly comprise financial and corporate assets, interest-bearing loans, borrowings, tax balances, corporate and financing expenses.
(y) Related parties
For the purposes of these financial statements, parties are considered to be related to the Group if the Group has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the party or exercise significant influence over the party in making financial and operating decisions, or vice versa, or where the Group and the party are subject to common control or common significant influence. Related parties may be individuals (being members of key management personnel, significant shareholders and/ or their close family members) or other entities and include entities which are under the significant influence of related parties of the Group where those parties are individuals, and post-employment benefit plans which are for the benefit of employees of the Group or of any entity that is a related party of the Group.
(z) Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations
Non-current assets (or disposal groups comprising assets and liabilities) that are expected to be recovered primarily through sale rather than through continuing use are classified as held for sale. Immediately before classification as held for sale, the assets (or components of a disposal group) are re-measured in accordance with the Group’s accounting policies. Thereafter generally the assets (or disposal group) are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Any impairment loss on a disposal group first is allocated to goodwill, and then to remaining assets and liabilities on pro-rata basis, except that no loss is allocated to inventories, financial assets, deferred tax assets, employee benefit assets and investment properties, which continue to be measured in accordance with the Group’s accounting policies. Impairment loss on initial classification as held for sale and subsequent gains or losses on re-measurement are recognised in profit or loss. Gains are not recognised in excess of any cumulative impairment loss.
24
2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
- (z) Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations (continued)
A discontinued operation is a component of the Group’s business that represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations that has been disposed of or is held for sale, or is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale. Classification as a discontinued operation occurs upon disposal or when the operation meets the criteria to be classified as held for sale, if earlier. When an operation is classified as discontinued operation, the comparative income statement is restated as if the operation had been discontinued from the start of the comparative period.
3 Turnover
Turnover represents the aggregate of the invoiced value of goods sold and services rendered, after allowances for goods returned and deduction of any trade discounts, and excludes value added tax or other sales taxes.
4 Segment reporting
Segment information is presented in respect of the Group’s business and geographical segments. The primary format, business segments, is based on the Group’s management and internal reporting structure.
Inter-segment pricing is determined on an arm’s length basis.
Segment results, assets and liabilities include items directly attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis. Unallocated items comprise mainly incomeearning assets and revenue, interest-bearing loans, borrowings and related expenses, and corporate assets, expenses, income tax assets and liabilities.
Segment capital expenditure is the total cost incurred during the period to acquire property, plant and equipment, and intangible assets other than goodwill.
- (a) Business segments
The Group comprises the following main business segments:
-
Thin Film Transistor-Liquid Crystal Display (“TFT-LCD”) business;
-
Application Special Device (“ASD”) business, which include Super Twisted NematicLiquid Crystal Display (“STN-CTSN”) business and non STN-CTSN business;
-
Cathode Radial Tube-Liquid Crystal Display (“CRT-LCD”) business; and
-
Others include Precision Electronic Components and materials and other business lines.
25
4 Segment reporting (continued)
- (b) Geographical segments
The Group’s two major business segments are managed on a worldwide basis, but operate in four principal geographical areas.
PRC is the home country of the Group which is also the main operating country. The areas of operation cover all the two activities.
Other Asia region mainly covers the production and sales activity of TFT-LCD and STN-CTSN.
European region mainly covers the sales activity of STN-CTSN while American region mainly covers the sales activity of TFT-LCD and STN-CTSN.
In presenting information on the basis of geographical segments, segment revenue is based on the geographical location of customers. Segment assets are based on the geographical location of the assets.

5 Discontinued operations
BOE-Hydis Technology Co., Ltd. (“BOE-Hydis”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company with production in Korea, has commenced the corporate rehabilitation procedure under the order by the Seoul Central District Court on 29 September 2006 as this subsidiary has been experiencing severe losses due to intense competition in the market, and the Group ceased the control on BOE-Hydis on the same date. As at 31 December 2006, BOE-Hydis held certain shareholdings in two of the subsidiaries of the Company and the corresponding amount of the equity attributable to these shareholdings were treated as minority interest. BOE-Hydis mainly engages in TFT-LCD business of the Group. As at 31 December 2006, the Group had no production plant in Korea.
On 30 November 2005, the Company sold all its equity interest in Beijing Orient Top Victory Electronics Co., Ltd. (“OTPV”) to TPV Technology Limited (“TPV”), an associate of the Group. In connection with this transaction, TPV issued 68,326,000 new shares to acquire the Group’s entire interest in OTPV, formerly a 45.21% owned consolidated subsidiary of the Company. The total consideration received, which was based on the market value of the shares received on completion date at HK$6.55 per share, amounted to approximately HK$447,538,000 (equivalent to RMB466,440,000) and the Company recognised a gain of approximately RMB133,753,000, after netting of related expenses, on disposal of OTPV in 2005. Accordingly, the acquisition of the additional equity interest in TPV does not have any cash flow impact, apart from the net cash disposed of as disclosed below. OTPV mainly covers the CRT-LCD business of the Group.

- (a) Adoption of IFRS 3 “Business Combinations”
With effect from 1 January 2005 the Group no longer amortises goodwill. In accordance with the transitional provisions set out in IFRS 3, the accumulated amortisation of goodwill as at 1 January 2005 has been eliminated against the cost of goodwill as at that date.
(b) Impairment tests for cash-generating units (“CGUs”) containing goodwill
For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to the Group’s operating divisions which represent the lowest level within the Group at which the goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes.
Goodwill is allocated to the Group’s CGU identified according to country of operation and business segment as follows:
| In thousands of Renminbi Property management activities based in Beijing (Beijing Orient Heng Tong Property Centre) Others |
2006 42,632 4,733 47,365 |
2005 42,632 762 43,394 |
|---|---|---|
The recoverable amounts of CGUs were estimated based on value-in-use calculations as derived from financial budgets approved by management covering a five-year period. Cash flows beyond the five-year period were extrapolated using the estimate rates stated below. The growth rate does not exceed the long-term average growth rate for the business in which the CGUs operates.
Value-in-use was determined by discounting the future cash flows generated from the continuing use of the unit and was based on the following key assumptions:
| 2006 | 2005 | |
|---|---|---|
| % | % | |
| Gross margin | 13.7 | 13.7 |
| Growth rate | 10 | 10 |
| Discount rate | 8.2 | 8.2 |
Management determined the budgeted gross margin based on past performance and its expectation for market development. The weighted average growth rates used are consistent with the forecasts included in industry reports. The discount rates used are pre-tax and reflect specific risks relating to the property management industry, in which Beijing Orient Heng Tong Property Centre, a subsidiary of the Group, is mainly engaging.
Based on the assessment, the carrying amount of the unit was approximately equal to its recoverable amount. Any adverse change in the assumptions used in the calculation of recoverable amount would cause the carrying value to be less than the recoverable amount (see note 36). For details on Beijing Orient Heng Tong Property Centre, please see note 33.
- (c) At 31 December 2006, the Group pledged intangible assets with a carrying amount of RMB Nil (2005: RMB734,000) as collateral for the Group’s bank loans (note 24(a)).

32 Financial instruments
Exposure to credit, interest rate, currency and liquidity risk arises in the normal course of the Group’s business. The risks are limited by the Group’s financial management policies and practices described below.
Credit risk
Substantially all of the Group’s cash and cash equivalents are held in major financial institutions located in the PRC. The Group’s major customers are the manufacturers of computer monitors and various electronics products, which accounted for significant amounts of the Group’s total operating revenues during the year. The Group has no significant credit risk with any of these customers since the Group maintains long-term and stable business relationships with these large customers in the industry. The Group performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and generally does not require collateral on trade receivables.
At the reporting date there were no significant concentrations of credit risk. The maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the carrying amount of each financial asset.
Interest rate risk
The Group’s investments in fixed-rate debt securities and its fixed-rate borrowings are exposed to a risk of change in their fair value due to changes in interest rates. Investments in equity securities and short-term receivables and payables are not exposed to interest rate risk.
The interest rates of loans and borrowings of the Group are disclosed in note 24.
55
32 Financial instruments (continued)
Foreign currency risk
The Group operates globally and is exposed to foreign currency risk on sales, purchases and borrowings that are denominated in a currency other than the respective functional currencies of Group entities. The currencies giving rise to this risk are primarily Korean Won and United States Dollars.
The Group uses forward exchange contracts to hedge its foreign currency risk.
Substantially all the Group’s cash flows are denominated in Renminbi. Apart from Korean Won and United States Dollars denominated trade and other receivables, cash and cash equivalents, trade and other payables and loans and borrowings as disclosed in notes 20, 21, 22 and 24 to the consolidated financial statements respectively.
In respect of other monetary assets and liabilities held in currencies other than the Renminbi, the Group ensures that the net exposure is kept to an acceptable level, by buying or selling foreign currencies at spot rates where necessary to address short-term imbalances.
Liquidity risk
Individual operating entities within the group are responsible for their own cash management, including the short term investment of cash surpluses and the raising of loans to cover expected cash demands, subject to approval by the Company’s board when the borrowings exceed certain predetermined levels of authority. The Group’s policy is to regularly monitor current and expected liquidity requirements and its compliance with loan covenants to ensure that it maintains sufficient reserves of cash, adequate lines of funding from major financial institutions and access to the capital markets to meet its liquidity requirements in the short and longer terms.
Fair value
The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables are not materially different from their carrying amounts.
The fair values of the Group’s bank loans and other borrowings are estimated by applying a discounted cash flow using current market interest rates for similar financial instruments approximate to their carrying values.
Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time and based on relevant market information and information about financial instruments. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgement and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

35 Subsequent events
-
(a) On 16 March 2007, the Fifth Plenary Session of the Tenth National People’s Congress passed the Corporate Income Tax Law of the People’s Republic of China (“new tax law”) which will take effect on 1 January 2008. The Group has been granted the status of a high-tech enterprise and currently its applicable income tax rate is 15%. According to the new tax law, certain hightech enterprise will continue to be entitled to a reduced tax rate of 15%. However, the detailed implementation rules regarding the preferential tax policies have yet to be made public. Consequently, the Group is not able to assess whether it will qualify as a high-tech enterprise under the new tax law and therefore is not able to make estimate of the expected financial effect of the new tax law on its deferred tax assets and liabilities. The expected financial effect of the new tax laws, if any, will be reflected in the Group’s 2007 financial statements. The enactment of the new tax law is not expected to have any financial effect on the amounts accrued in the consolidated balance sheet in respect of current tax payable.
-
(b) On 14 January 2004, BOE Land Co., Ltd. (“BOE Land”) signed the “Frame Agreement” regarding the restructuring of Beijing Zhongjin Shun Da Land Corporation Ltd (“BZSD”) with Beijing Zhong Ye An Shun Da Metallurgy Corporation (“Beijing An Shun Da”). Pursuant to the agreement, after the restructuring, BOE Land and Beijing An Shun Da owned 60% and 40% equity interests of Zhongjin Land, respectively. BOE Land had performed the required restructuring procedures according to the agreement such as injecting the capital by RMB54,303,000; while Beijing An Shun Da failed to inject the agreed amount, the land use right and the ownership of respective properties were under pledged. Accordingly, the Group has applied to the court which concluded that the share transfer agreement of BZSD was ineffective due to the failure of Beijing An Shun Da to perform the responsibility as stated in the agreement, and appealed for the conservation of the invested capitals.
On 18 January 2007, the land use rights owned by Beijing An Shun Da were sealed up through the litigation of property conservation by BOE Land. The executive board of the People’s Court has performed the evaluation of the land use rights and received RMB121,000,000 through the auction. On 19 January 2007, BOE Land received the execution fund of approximately RMB54,303,000.

Upon completion of this transaction, the percentage shareholding by the Company in TPV will be reduced from 21.85% to 11.55% and the remaining shareholding in TPV held by the Company will be 224,360,000 shares.

36 Accounting estimates and judgments
Key sources of estimation uncertainty
Notes 32 contain information about the assumptions and their risk factors relating to financial instruments. Other key sources of estimating uncertainty are as follows:
- (a) Impairment of assets
The Group determines the impairment of assets taking into account the Group’s estimate of the selling prices, for manufacturing costs and the costs to be incurred in selling certain products. Management reviews the impairment of assets at the balance sheet date.
- (b) Provision for inventories
As explained in the note 2 (l) , the Group’s inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Based on the Group’s recent experience and the nature of the inventories, the Group makes estimates of the selling prices, the costs of completion in case for work in progress, and the costs to be incurred in selling the inventories. Uncertainty exists in these estimations.
(c) Warranty provisions
The Group makes provisions under the warranties it gives on sale of its products taking into account the Group’s recent claim experience. Based on the Group’s estimates and the nature of the products developed by the Group, the Group makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
- (d) Impairment loss on bad and doubtful debt
The Group’s management determines the impairment loss on bad and doubtful debt on a regular basis. This estimate is based on the credit history of its customers and current market conditions. Management reviews the impairment loss on bad and doubtful debt at the balance sheet date.
61
36 Accounting estimates and judgments (continued)
(e) Depreciation
Property, plant and equipment are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives, after taking into account the estimated residual value. The Group reviews the estimated useful lives of the assets regularly in order to determine the amount of depreciation expense to be recorded during any reporting period. The useful lives are based on the Group’s historical experience with similar assets and taking into account anticipated technological changes. The depreciation expense for future periods is adjusted if there are significant changes from previous estimates.
37 Possible impact of amendments, new standards and interpretations issued but not yet effective for the annual accounting period ended 31 December 2006
Up to the date of issue of these financial statements, the IASB has issued the following amendments, new standards and interpretations which are not yet effective for the accounting year ended 31 December 2006 and which have not been adopted in these financial statements:
Of these developments, the following relate to matters that may be relevant to the Group’s operations and financial statements:
| Effective for | ||

Notes to the Financial Statements
(Expressed in Renminbi)

With effect from 1 January 2005, following the adoption of IFRS 3, the Group no longer amortises the positive goodwill but tests it at least annually for impairment under IFRS. For negative goodwill, the carrying amounts of previously recognised negative goodwill at the beginning of the year were derecognised with a corresponding adjustment to opening balance of retained earnings. Under PRC GAAP, positive and negative goodwill were amortised over its useful life not exceeding 40 years.
-
(ii) Under IFRSs, the receipt of government grant is recognised in the income statement. Under the PRC GAAP, receipt of certain government grant is required to credit to capital reserve.
-
(iii) Under IFRSs, general borrowing costs are capitalised by applying a capitalisation rate to the expenditures on the qualifying assets. Under the PRC GAAP, general borrowing costs are charged to the income statement when incurred.

Under IFRSs, gain on disposal of OTPV was calculated by comparing the share of net assets in OTPV by the Group and the fair value of newly issued shares by TPV on the transaction date. Under PRC GAAP, no gain on disposal of OTPV was recognised on the transaction as the carrying amount of the equity interest in OTPV being disposed of by the Group was deemed to be the cost of the newly acquired equity interest in TPV.
-
(vi) The amount represents the different treatment on appropriation of staff bonus and welfare fund under IFRSs and PRC GAAP.
-
(vii) Under IFRSs, the loans arrangement fee is amortised over the loan period. Under PRC GAAP, the loans arrangement fee was charged to the income statement when incurred. During the year ended 31 December 2006, the balance of loans arrangement fee was written off in income statement prepared under IFRS upon the deemed disposal of corresponding subsidiary.
-
(viii) Under the PRC GAAP, the increase in the Company’s share of net assets of an associate after the sale of additional shares by the associate is credited to capital reserve. Under IFRS, such increase is recognized as income, after netting off the corresponding amount of goodwill being disposed.
-
(ix) The amount represents the GAAP differences on the equity accounting of TPV which has issued convertible debentures in 2005. Under IFRS, the equity portion of the convertible debentures is recognised in shareholders’ equity. Under PRC GAAP, the equity portion is recognised in liability.
