China Motor Corporation
Financial Statements for the Years Ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 and Independent Auditors’ Report
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT
The Board of Directors and Shareholders China Motor Corporation
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of China Motor Corporation (the “Corporation”), which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”).
In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of other auditors (refer to the Other Matter section), the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Corporation as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Corporation in accordance with The Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountant of the Republic of China, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion based on our audits and the reports of other auditors.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
The key audit matter of the Corporation’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 is stated as follows:
Revenue Recognition of Domestic Sales of Four-wheeled Vehicles
The revenue of the Company from domestic sales of four-wheeled vehicles are material to its financial statements. Since the sales of four-wheeled vehicles are strongly affected by the economy, we identified the occurrence of revenue recognition from domestic sales of four-wheeled vehicles as a key audit matter.
- 1 -
Our audit procedures performed in respect of revenue recognition included the followings:
-
We discussed with management to obtain an understanding of the accounting policy for recognizing revenue coming from domestic sales of four-wheeled vehicles and determined that such policy was appropriate and consistently applied.
-
We obtained an understanding of the internal controls on revenue recognition of domestic sales of four-wheeled vehicles, evaluated the design of the controls and tested the operating effectiveness of such controls. We also verified the authenticity of sales transaction-related documentary evidence.
-
We selected samples, checked the relevant receipts and confirmed that revenue from the domestic sales of four-wheeled vehicles was recognized when the control of the goods has been transferred to the customer and the performance obligations have been satisfied.
Other Matter
We did not audit the financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 of some of the Corporation’s investments accounted for using the equity method, namely Daimler Vans Hong Kong Ltd., Shung Ye Motors Corporation, and Uni Auto Parts Manufacture Co., Ltd., but such financial statements were audited by other auditors whose reports have been furnished to us. Our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for these investees in the Corporation’s accompanying financial statements, is based solely on the reports of the other auditors. The aforementioned investments accounted for using the equity method constituted NT$4,292,241 thousand, representing 8.8%, and NT$3,782,477 thousand, representing 7.8%, of the Corporation’s total assets as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The Corporation’s share of comprehensive income of the aforementioned investments accounted for using the equity method amounted to NT1,287,532 thousand and NT$802,862 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, which accounted for 29.4% and 23.7% of the Corporation’s total comprehensive income, respectively.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Corporation’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Corporation or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those charged with governance (including members of the audit committee) are responsible for overseeing the Corporation’s financial reporting process.
- 2 -
Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’ report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
-
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit 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 Corporation’s internal control.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
-
Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Corporation’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors’ report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors’ report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Corporation to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
-
Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Corporation to express an opinion on the financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
- 3 -
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors’ report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
The engagement partners on the audits resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Ya-Ling Wong and Shiow-Ming Shue.

4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
- a. Statement of compliance
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers (the “Regulations”).
-
12 -
-
b. Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for financial instruments which are measured at fair value and net defined benefit liabilities which are measured at the present value of the defined benefit obligation less the fair value of plan assets.
The fair value measurements, which are grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value measurement inputs are observable and based on the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety are described as follows:
-
1) Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
-
2) Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for an asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices); and
-
3) Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for an asset or liability.
When preparing these parent company only financial statements, the Corporation used the equity method to account for its investment in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures. In order for the amounts of the net profit for the year, other comprehensive income for the year and total equity in the parent company only financial statements to be the same as the amounts attributable to the owners of the Corporation in its consolidated financial statements, adjustments arising from the differences in accounting treatments between the parent company only basis and the consolidated basis were made to investments accounted for using the equity method, the share of profit or loss of subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures, the share of other comprehensive income of subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures and the related equity items, as appropriate, in these parent company only financial statements.
- c. Classification of current and non-current assets and liabilities
Current assets include:
-
1) Assets held primarily for the purpose of trading;
-
2) Assets expected to be realized within 12 months after the reporting period; and
-
3) Cash and cash equivalents unless the asset is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period.
Current liabilities include:
-
1) Liabilities held primarily for the purpose of trading;
-
2) Liabilities due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting period; and
-
3) Liabilities for which the Corporation does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least 12 months after the reporting period.
Assets and liabilities that are not classified as current are classified as non-current.
- d. Foreign currencies
In preparing the Corporation’s financial statements, transactions in currencies other than the Corporation’s functional currency (i.e., foreign currencies) are recognized at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions.
- 13 -
At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date. Exchange differences on monetary items arising from settlement or translation are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.
Non-monetary items denominated in foreign currencies that are measured at fair value are retranslated at the rates prevailing at the date when the fair value is determined. Exchange differences arising from the retranslation of non-monetary items are included in profit or loss for the period except for exchange differences arising from the retranslation of non-monetary items in respect of which gains and losses are recognized directly in other comprehensive income; in which cases, the exchange differences are also recognized directly in other comprehensive income.
Non-monetary item denominated in a foreign currency and measured at historical cost is stated at the reporting currency as originally translated from the foreign currency.
For the purpose of presenting the financial statements, the financial statements of the Corporation’s foreign operations that are prepared using functional currencies which are different from the currency of the Corporation are translated into the presentation currency, the New Taiwan dollar, as follows: Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the end of the reporting year; and income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates for the year. The resulting currency translation differences are recognized in other comprehensive income
On the disposal of a foreign operation (i.e., a disposal of the Corporation’s entire interest in a foreign operation, or a disposal involving loss of joint control over a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation, or a partial disposal of an interest in a joint arrangement or an associate that includes a foreign operation of which the retained interest becomes a financial asset), all of the exchange differences accumulated in equity in respect of that operation are reclassified to profit or loss.
In relation to a partial disposal of a subsidiary that does not result in the Corporation losing control over the subsidiary, the proportionate share of accumulated exchange differences is included in the calculation of the equity transaction but is not recognized in profit or loss. For all other partial disposals, the proportionate share of the accumulated exchange differences recognized in other comprehensive income is reclassified to profit or loss.
e. Inventories
Inventories consist of raw materials, supplies, finished goods and work in progress and are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventory write-downs are made by item, except where it may be appropriate to group similar or related items. The net realizable value is the estimated selling price of inventories less all estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to make the sale. Inventories are recorded at the weighted-average cost on the balance sheet date.
- f. Investments accounted for using the equity method
The Corporation uses the equity method to account for its investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures.
1) Investment in subsidiaries
A subsidiary is an entity that is controlled by the Corporation.
Under the equity method, an investment in a subsidiary is initially recognized at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognize the Corporation’s share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the subsidiary. The Corporation also recognizes the changes in the Corporation’s share of equity of subsidiaries attributable to the Corporation.
- 14 -
Changes in the Corporation’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in the Corporation losing control of the subsidiary are equity transactions. The Corporation recognizes directly in equity any difference between the carrying amount of the investment and the fair value of the consideration paid or received.
When the Corporation’s share of losses of a subsidiary equals or exceeds its interest in that subsidiary, the Corporation continues recognizing its share of further losses, if any.
Any excess of the cost of acquisition over the Corporation’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of a subsidiary that constitutes a business at the date of acquisition is recognized as goodwill, which is included within the carrying amount of the investment and is not amortized. Any excess of the Corporation’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of a subsidiary that constitutes a business over the cost of acquisition is recognized immediately in profit or loss.
The Corporation assesses its investment for any impairment by comparing the carrying amount with the estimated recoverable amount as assessed based on the investee’s financial statements as a whole. Impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount. If the recoverable amount of the investment subsequently increases, the Corporation recognizes reversal of the impairment loss; the adjusted post-reversal carrying amount should not exceed the carrying amount that would have been recognized (net of amortization or depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognized in prior years. An impairment loss recognized on goodwill cannot be reversed in a subsequent period.
When the Corporation loses control of a subsidiary, it recognizes the investment retained in the former subsidiary at its fair value at the date when control is lost. The difference between the fair value of the retained investment plus any consideration received and the carrying amount of previous investment at the date when control is lost is recognized as a gain or loss in profit or loss. Besides, the Corporation accounts for all amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to that subsidiary on the same basis as would be required had the Corporation directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities.
Profits or losses resulting from downstream transactions are eliminated in full only in the parent company only financial statements. Profits and losses resulting from upstream transactions and transactions between subsidiaries are recognized only in the parent company only financial statements and only to the extent of interests in the subsidiaries that are not related to the Corporation.
- 2) Investment in associates and joint ventures
An associate is an entity over which the Corporation has significant influence and that is neither a subsidiary nor an interest in a joint venture. A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the Corporation and other parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the arrangement.
The Corporation uses the equity method to account for its investments in associates and joint ventures.
Under the equity method, investments in an associate and a joint venture are initially recognized at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognize the Corporation’s share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the associate and joint venture. The Corporation also recognizes the changes in the Corporation’s share of the equity of associates and joint venture attributable to the Corporation. The Corporation’s equity in the investees’ net income or net loss is calculated using the treasury share method when investees also have investments in the Corporation (reciprocal holding).
- 15 -
Any excess of the cost of acquisition over the Corporation’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of an associate or a joint venture at the date of acquisition is recognized as goodwill, which is included within the carrying amount of the investment and is not amortized.
When the Corporation subscribes for additional new shares of an associate and a joint venture at a percentage different from its existing ownership percentage, the resulting carrying amount of the investment differs from the amount of the Corporation’s proportionate interest in the associate and joint venture. The Corporation records such a difference as an adjustment to investments with the corresponding amount charged or credited to capital surplus - changes in the capital surplus from investments in associates and joint ventures accounted for using the equity method. If the Corporation’s ownership interest is reduced due to its additional subscription of the new shares of associate and joint venture, the proportionate amount of the gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to that associate and joint venture is reclassified to profit or loss on the same basis as would be required had the investee directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. When the adjustment should be debited to capital surplus, but the capital surplus recognized from investments accounted for using the equity method is insufficient, the shortage is debited to retained earnings.
When the Corporation’s share of losses of an associate and a joint venture equals or exceeds its interest in that associate and joint venture, the Corporation discontinues recognizing its share of further losses. Additional losses and liabilities are recognized only to the extent that the Corporation has incurred legal obligations, or constructive obligations, or made payments on behalf of that associate and joint venture.
The entire carrying amount of the investment is tested for impairment as a single asset by comparing its recoverable amount with its carrying amount. Any impairment loss recognized is part of the carrying amount of the investment. Any reversal of that impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the recoverable amount of the investment subsequently increases.
The Corporation discontinues the use of the equity method from the date on which its investment ceases to be an associate and a joint venture. Any retained investment is measured at fair value at that date, and the fair value is regarded as the investment’s fair value on initial recognition as a financial asset. The difference between the previous carrying amount of the associate and joint venture attributable to the retained interest and its fair value is included in the determination of the gain or loss on disposal of the associate and the joint venture. The Corporation accounts for all amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to that associate and the joint venture on the same basis as would be required had that associate directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. If an investment in an associate becomes an investment in a joint venture or an investment in a joint venture becomes an investment in an associate, the Corporation continues to apply the equity method and does not remeasure the retained interest.
When the Corporation transacts with its associate and joint venture, profits and losses resulting from the transactions with the associate and joint venture are recognized in the Corporation’s financial statements only to the extent of interests in the associate and joint venture that are not related to the Corporation.
- g. Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are initially measured at cost subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss.
Property, plant and equipment in the course of construction are measured at cost less any recognized impairment loss. Cost includes professional fees and borrowing costs eligible for capitalization. Such assets are depreciated and classified to the appropriate categories of property, plant and equipment when completed and ready for their intended use.
- 16 -
Depreciation of property, plant and equipment, except for tooling (included in machinery) which is amortized using the production unit method, is recognized using the straight-line method. Each significant part is depreciated separately. The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation methods are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effects of any changes in the estimate accounted for on a prospective basis.
On derecognition of an item of property, plant and equipment, the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in profit or loss.
- h. Investment properties
Investment properties are properties held to earn rentals and/or for capital appreciation.
Investment properties are initially measured at cost, including transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss. Depreciation is recognized using the straight-line method.
On derecognition of an investment property, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is included in profit or loss.
- i. Intangible assets
Expenditures on research activities are recognized as expenses in the period in which they are incurred.
An internally-generated intangible asset arising from the development phase of an internal project is recognized if, and only if all of the following have been demonstrated:
-
1) The technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale;
-
2) The intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it;
-
3) The ability to use or sell the intangible asset;
-
4) How the intangible asset will generate probable future economic benefits;
-
5) The availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the intangible asset; and
-
6) The ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development.
The amount initially recognized for internally-generated intangible assets is the sum of the expenditures incurred from the date when such an intangible asset first meets the recognition criteria listed above. Subsequent to initial recognition, such intangible assets are measured at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment loss.
On derecognition of an intangible asset, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in profit or loss.
-
17 -
-
j. Impairment of property, plant and equipment, right-of-use assets, investment properties and intangible assets
At the end of each reporting period, the Corporation reviews the carrying amounts of its property, plant and equipment, right-of-use assets, investment properties and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss. When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Corporation estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Corporate assets are allocated to the individual cash-generating units on a reasonable and consistent basis of allocation.
Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives and intangible assets not yet available for use are tested for impairment at least annually, and whenever there is an indication that the assets may be impaired.
The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. If the recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset or cash-generating unit is reduced to its recoverable amount, with the resulting impairment loss recognized in profit or loss.
When an impairment loss is subsequently reversed, the carrying amount of the corresponding asset or cash-generating unit is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent of the carrying amount (less amortization expense or depreciation expense) that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset or cash-generating unit in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss.
- k. Financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when the Corporation becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issuance of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at FVTPL) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at FVTPL are recognized immediately in profit or loss.
1) Financial assets
All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized and derecognized on a trade date basis.
- a) Measurement categories
Financial assets are classified into the following categories: financial assets at FVTPL, financial assets at amortized cost and investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI.
i. Financial assets at FVTPL
Financial assets at FVTPL are financial assets mandatorily designated as at FVTPL, and include investments in equity instruments that do not meet the criteria of financial assets at amortized cost or investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI.
- 18 -
Financial assets at FVTPL are subsequently measured at fair value, and any dividends, interest earned and remeasurement gains or losses on such financial assets are recognized in other gains or losses. Fair value is determined in the manner described in Note 26.
- ii. Financial assets at amortized cost
Financial assets that meet the following conditions are subsequently measured at amortized cost:
-
i) The financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows; and
-
ii) The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
Subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets at amortized cost, including cash and cash equivalents, debt instruments, notes and accounts receivable (including related parties), other receivables and guarantee deposits (included in other non-current assets), are measured at amortized cost, which equals the gross carrying amount determined using the effective interest method less any impairment loss. Exchange differences are recognized in profit or loss.
Interest income is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of such a financial asset, except for:
-
i) Purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets, for which interest income is calculated by applying the credit adjusted effective interest rate to the amortized cost of such financial assets; and
-
ii) Financial assets that are not credit impaired on purchase or origination but have subsequently become credit impaired, for which interest income is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the amortized cost of such financial assets in subsequent reporting periods.
-
A financial asset is credit impaired when one or more of the following events have occurred:
-
i) Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or the borrower;
-
ii) Breach of contract, such as a default; or
-
iii) It is becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or undergo a financial reorganization.
-
iii. Investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI
On initial recognition, the Corporation may make an irrevocable election to designate investments in equity instruments as at FVTOCI. Designation as at FVTOCI is not permitted if the equity investment is held for trading or if it is contingent consideration recognized by an acquirer in a business combination.
Investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI are subsequently measured at fair value with gains and losses arising from changes in fair value recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in other equity.
- 19 -
Dividends on these investments in equity instruments are recognized in profit or loss when the Corporation’s right to receive the dividends is established, unless the dividends clearly represent a recovery of part of the cost of the investment.
- b) Impairment of financial assets
The Corporation recognizes a loss allowance for expected credit losses on financial assets at amortized cost (including trade receivables).
The Corporation always recognizes lifetime expected credit losses (ECLs) for trade receivables. For all other financial instruments, the Corporation recognizes lifetime ECLs when there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition. If, on the other hand, the credit risk on a financial instrument has not increased significantly since initial recognition, the Corporation measures the loss allowance for that financial instrument at an amount equal to 12-month ECLs.
Expected credit losses reflect the weighted average of credit losses with the respective risks of default occurring as the weights. Lifetime ECLs represent the expected credit losses that will result from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument. In contrast, 12-month ECLs represent the portion of lifetime ECLs that is expected to result from default events on a financial instrument that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date.
For internal credit risk management purposes, the Corporation determines that the following situations indicate that a financial asset is in default (without taking into account any collateral held by the Corporation):
-
i. Internal or external information shows that the debtor is unlikely to pay its creditors.
-
ii. When a financial asset has reached beyond the expiration date of contract unless the Corporation has reasonable and corroborative information to support a more lagged default criterion.
The impairment loss of all financial assets which are held by the Corporation is recognized in profit or loss by a reduction in their carrying amounts through a loss allowance account.
- c) Derecognition of financial assets
The Corporation derecognizes a financial asset only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another party.
On derecognition of a financial asset at amortized cost in its entirety, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable is recognized in profit or loss. On derecognition of an investment in a debt instrument at FVTOCI, the cumulative gain or loss which had been recognized in other comprehensive income is transferred directly to retained earnings, without recycling through profit or loss.
-
2) Financial liabilities
-
a) Subsequent measurement
Except for the financial liabilities at FVTPL, all financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.
- 20 -
Financial liabilities are classified as at FVTPL when such financial liabilities are held for trading.
Financial liabilities held for trading are stated at fair value, and any remeasurement gains or losses on such financial liabilities are recognized in other gains or losses.
Fair value is determined in the manner described in Note 26.
- b) Derecognition of financial liabilities
The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability derecognized and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognized in profit or loss.
3) Derivative financial instruments
The Corporation enters into foreign exchange forward contracts to manage its exposure to foreign exchange rate risks.
Derivatives are initially recognized at fair value at the date on which the derivative contracts are entered into and are subsequently remeasured to their fair value at the end of each reporting period. The resulting gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss immediately unless the derivative is designated and effective as a hedging instrument, in which event, the timing of the recognition in profit or loss depends on the nature of the hedge relationship. When the fair value of derivative financial instrument is positive, the derivative is recognized as a financial asset; when the fair value of a derivative financial instrument is negative, the derivative is recognized as a financial liability.
Derivatives embedded in hybrid contracts that contain financial asset hosts that is within the scope of IFRS 9 are not separated; instead, the classification is determined in accordance with the entire hybrid contract. Derivatives embedded in non-derivative host contracts that are not financial assets that is within the scope of IFRS 9 (e.g. financial liabilities) are treated as separate derivatives when they meet the definition of a derivative; their risks and characteristics are not closely related to those of the host contracts; and the host contracts are not measured at FVTPL.
l. Hedge accounting
The Corporation designates certain hedging instruments as cash flow hedges.
The effective portion of gains or losses on derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is recognized in other comprehensive income. The gains or losses relating to the ineffective portion are recognized immediately in profit or loss.
The associated gains or losses that were recognized in other comprehensive income are reclassified from equity to profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment in the line item relating to the related hedged item in the same period in which the hedged item affects profit or loss. If the hedge of a forecasted transaction subsequently results in the recognition of a non-financial asset or a non-financial liability, the associated gains and losses that were recognized in other comprehensive income are removed from equity and included in the initial cost of the non-financial asset or non-financial liability.
The Corporation discontinues hedge accounting only when the hedging relationship ceases to meet the qualifying criteria; for instance, when the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised. The cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument that was previously recognized in other comprehensive income (from the period in which the hedge was effective) remains separately in equity until the forecasted transaction occurs. When a forecasted transaction is no longer expected to occur, the gains or losses accumulated in equity are recognized immediately in profit or loss.
- 21 -
m. Provisions
Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the discounted cash flows of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation.
1) Onerous contracts
Onerous contracts are those in which the Corporation’s unavoidable costs of meeting the contractual obligations exceed the economic benefits expected to be received from the contract. The present obligations arising under onerous contracts are recognized and measured as provisions.
2) Warranties
Provisions for the expected cost of warranty obligations are recognized at the date of sale of the relevant products at the best estimate by the management of the Corporation of the expenditures required to settle the Corporation’s obligations.
n. Revenue recognition
The Corporation identifies contracts with customers, allocates the transaction price to the performance obligations and recognizes revenue when performance obligations are satisfied.
For contracts where the period between the date on which the Corporation transfers a promised good or service to a customer and the date on which the customer pays for that good or service is one year or less, the Corporation does not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component.
1) Revenue from sale of goods
Revenue from sale of goods is recognized when the goods are delivered to the customer’s specific location because it is the time when the customer has control over the goods and performance obligations are satisfied. Accounts receivable are recognized concurrently.
2) Revenue from rendering of services
Revenue from rendering of services is recognized when services are rendered.
- o. Leases
At the inception of a contract, the Corporation assesses whether the contract is, or contains, a lease.
- 1) The Corporation as lessor
All leases are classified as operating leases.
Lease payments from operating leases are recognized as income on a straight-line basis over the terms of the relevant leases. Initial direct costs incurred in obtaining operating leases are added to the carrying amounts of the underlying assets and recognized as costs on a straight-line basis over the lease terms.
- 22 -
When a lease includes both land and building elements, the Corporation assesses the classification of each element separately as a finance or an operating lease based on the assessment as to whether substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of each element have been transferred to the lessee. The lease payments are allocated between the land and the building elements in proportion to the relative fair values of the leasehold interests in the land element and building element of the lease at the inception of a contract. If the allocation of the lease payments can be made reliably, each element is accounted for separately in accordance with its lease classification. When the lease payments cannot be allocated reliably between the land and building elements, the entire lease is generally classified as a finance lease unless it is clear that both elements are operating leases; in which case, the entire lease is classified as an operating lease.
- 2) The Corporation as lessee
The Corporation recognizes right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for all leases at the commencement date of a lease, except for short-term leases and low-value asset leases accounted for applying a recognition exemption where lease payments are recognized as expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease terms.
Right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial measurement of lease liabilities adjusted for lease payments made before the commencement date. Right-of-use assets are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses and adjusted for any remeasurement of the lease liabilities.
Right-of-use assets are depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement dates to the earlier of the end of the useful lives of the right-of-use assets or the end of the lease terms.
Lease liabilities are initially measured at the present value of the lease payments, which comprise fixed payments and variable lease payments which depend on an index or a rate. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in a lease, if that rate can be readily determined. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the Corporation uses the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate.
Subsequently, lease liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, with interest expense recognized over the lease terms. When there is a change in a lease term, or a change in future lease payments resulting from a change in an index or a rate used to determine those payments, the Corporation remeasures the lease liabilities with a corresponding adjustment to the right-of-use assets. However, if the carrying amount of the right-of-use assets is reduced to zero, any remaining amount of the remeasurement is recognized in profit or loss.
Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognized as expenses in the periods in which they are incurred.
p. Government grants
Government grants are not recognized until there is reasonable assurance that the Corporation will comply with the conditions attached to them and that the grants will be received.
Government grants related to income are recognized as a reduction of the related costs or in other income on a systematic basis over the periods in which the Group recognizes as expenses the related costs that the grants intend to compensate.
Government grants that are receivable as compensation for expenses or losses already incurred or for the purpose of giving immediate financial support to the Group with no future related costs are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they are received.
- 23 -
q. Employee benefits
1) Short-term employee benefits
Liabilities recognized in respect of short-term employee benefits are measured at the undiscounted amount of the benefits expected to be paid in exchange for the related service.
2) Retirement benefits
Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit plans are recognized as expenses when employees have rendered services entitling them to the contributions.
Defined benefit costs (including service cost, net interest and remeasurement) under the defined benefit retirement benefit plans are determined using the projected unit credit method. Service cost (including current service cost and past service cost) and net interest on the net defined benefit liabilities are recognized as employee benefits expense in the period in which they occur. Remeasurement, comprising actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the changes to the asset ceiling and the return on plan assets (excluding interest), is recognized in other comprehensive income in the period in which it occurs. Remeasurement recognized in other comprehensive income is reflected immediately in retained earnings and will not be reclassified to profit or loss.
Net defined benefit liabilities represent the actual deficit in the Corporation’s defined benefit plans.
r. Taxation
Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.
1) Current tax
According to the Income Tax Act in the ROC, an additional tax on unappropriated earnings is provided for as income tax in the year the shareholders approve to retain earnings.
Adjustments of prior years’ tax liabilities are added to or deducted from the current year’s tax provision.
2) Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognized on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit.
Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognized for all deductible temporary differences or unused loss carryforwards to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilized.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and associates and interests in joint ventures, except where the Corporation is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences associated with such investments and interests are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profit against which to utilize the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.
- 24 -
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the assets to be recovered. A previously unrecognized deferred tax asset is also reviewed at the end of each reporting period and recognized to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liabilities are settled or the assets are realized, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Corporation expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
3) Current and deferred taxes for the year
Current and deferred taxes are recognized in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income, in which case, the current and deferred taxes are also recognized in other comprehensive income.
5. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY
In the application of the Corporation’s accounting policies, management is required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions on the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The Corporation considers the possible impact of the recent development of the COVID-19 in Taiwan and its economic environment implications when making its critical accounting estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revisions affect both current and future periods.

The Corporation invests only in debt instruments that have higher credit ratings and low credit risk after impairment assessment. The credit ratings infromation is supplied by independent rating agencies. The Corporation’s exposures and its external credit ratings are continuously monitored. The Corporation reviews changes in bond yields and other publicly available information of debtors make an assessment whether there has been a significant increase in the credit risk since initial recognition.
The Corporation considers the historical probability of default and loss given default of each credit rating supplied by external rating agencies, the current financial condition of debtors, and the future prospects of the industries. The Corporation’s current credit risk grading mechanism is as follows:
| Credit Rating Performing No rating |
Description The counterparty has a low risk of default and a strong capacity to meet contractual cash flows The bonds do not have credit rating |

2020 $ 115,841 2,955 $ 118,796 $ - |
The Corporation’s hedging strategy is to enter into foreign exchange forward contracts and to buy foreign currency banknote at the spot rate to avoid exchange rate exposure from its foreign currency receipts and payments and to manage exchange rate exposure of its forecasted foreign currency denominated purchases. Those transactions are designated as cash flow hedges. Basis adjustments are made to the initial carrying amounts non-financial hedged items when the anticipated purchases take place.
For the hedges of highly probable forecasted purchases, the critical terms (i.e. the notional amount, period and subject) of the foreign exchange forward contracts are corresponded to their hedged items. The Corporation performs a qualitative assessment and expects that the value of the foreign exchange forward contracts and the value of the corresponding hedged items will be systematically changed in the opposite direction in respond to movements in the underlying exchange rate.
The source of hedge ineffectiveness in these hedging relationships is the effect of the counterparty and the Corporation’s own credit risk on the fair value of the foreign exchange forward contracts and foreign currency banknote, which is not reflected in the fair value of the hedged item attributable to changes in foreign exchange rates. No other sources of ineffectiveness is expected to emerge from these hedging relationships. During the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, hedging instruments at fair value and transferred to initial carrying amount of hedged items are detailed in Note 20(e).
The following tables summarize the information relating to the hedges of foreign currency risk.

The Corporation’s holding is less than 50% of the voting rights in the investees but the Corporation considered its holding of voting rights relative to the size and dispersion of the other shareholdings, which are not widely dispersed, and concluded that it has neither the ability to direct the relevant activities of the investees nor the control over the investees. The management of the Corporation considered the Corporation as exercising significant influence over the investees and, therefore, classified them as associates accounted for using the equity method.
The share of profit or loss and other comprehensive income of these associates accounted for using the equity method were based on the associates’ financial statements which have been audited for the same years.
Hua-Chuang Automobile Information Technical Center reduced its capital for offsetting accumulated deficit and issued ordinary shares for cash in May and August 2020, respectively. The Corporation did not subscribe for additional new shares at the percentage of its existing ownership, which resulted in the Corporation’s shareholding to be less than 0.01%. In addition, in September 2020, the Corporation has resigned from its position as member of the board of directors of Hua-Chuang Automobile Information Technical Center and consequently ceased to have significant influence over Hua-Chuang Automobile Information Technical Center and recognized a loss on disposal of the investment amounting to $1,393 thousand.

19. RETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS
a. Defined contribution plans
The Corporation adopted a pension plan under the Labor Pension Act (LPA), which is a state-managed defined contribution plan. Under the LPA, an entity makes monthly contributions to employees’ individual pension accounts at 6% of monthly salaries and wages.
- 40 -
b. Defined benefit plans
The defined benefit plan adopted by the Corporation in accordance with the Labor Standards Act is operated by the government of the ROC. Pension benefits are calculated on the basis of the length of service and average monthly salaries of the 6 months before retirement. The Corporation contribute amounts equal to 2% of total monthly salaries and wages to a pension fund administered by the pension fund monitoring committee. Pension contributions are deposited in the Bank of Taiwan in the committee’s name. Before the end of each year, the Corporation assesses the balance in the pension fund. If the amount of the balance in the pension fund is inadequate to pay retirement benefits for employees who conform to retirement requirements in the next year, the Corporation is required to fund the difference in one appropriation that should be made before the end of March of the next year. The pension fund is managed by the Bureau of Labor Funds, Ministry of Labor (the “Bureau”); the Corporation has no right to influence the investment policy and strategy.
The amounts included in the balance sheets in respect of the Corporation’s defined benefit plans were as follows:
| Present value of defined benefit obligation Fair value of plan assets Net defined benefit liabilities |

The disbursement amounts of defined benefit plans of associates were $289 thousand and $520 thousand in 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Through the defined benefit plans under the Labor Standards Act, the Corporation is exposed to the following risks:
-
1) Investment risk: The plan assets are invested in domestic and foreign equity and debt securities, bank deposits, etc. The investment is conducted at the discretion of the Bureau or under the mandated management. However, in accordance with relevant regulations, the return generated by plan assets should not be below the interest rate for a 2-year time deposit with local banks.
-
2) Interest risk: A decrease in the bond interest rate will increase the present value of the defined benefit obligation; however, this will be partially offset by an increase in the return on the plan’s debt investments.
-
3) Salary risk: The present value of the defined benefit obligation is calculated by reference to the future salaries of plan participants. As such, an increase in the salary of the plan participants will increase the present value of the defined benefit obligation.
The actuarial valuations of the present value of the defined benefit obligation were carried out by qualified actuaries. The significant assumptions used for the purposes of the actuarial valuations are as follows:
| Discount rate Expected rate of salary increase |
December 31 |
|---|---|
| 2021 2020 0.50% 0.50% 1.25% 1.25% |
- 42 -
If possible reasonable changes in each of the significant actuarial assumptions occur and all other assumptions remain constant, the present value of the defined benefit obligation will increase (decrease) as follows:
| Discount rate 0.25% increase 0.25% decrease Expected rate of salary increase 0.25% increase 0.25% decrease |
**December ** | **31 ** | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2021 $ (48,201) $ 49,887 $ 48,596 $ (47,196) |
2020 $ (51,768) $ 53,645 $ 52,244 $ (50,677) |
The above sensitivity analysis may not be representative of the actual changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation as it is unlikely that the changes in assumptions will occur in isolation of one another as some of the assumptions may be correlated.
| Expected contributions to the plans for the next year Average duration of the defined benefit obligation |
**December 31 ** | **December 31 ** | |

c. Retained earnings and dividend policy
Under the dividend policy as set forth in the Articles, where the Corporation made a profit in a fiscal year, the profit shall be first utilized for offsetting losses of previous years and paying taxes, then for setting aside as legal reserve 10% of the remaining profit. If there is remaining profit, the profit shall be utilized for setting aside a special reserve in accordance with the laws and regulations, and then any remaining profit together with any undistributed retained earnings shall be used by the Corporation’s board of directors as the basis for proposing a distribution plan, which should be resolved in the shareholders’ meeting for distribution. For the policies on distribution of employees’ compensation and remuneration of directors, refer to Note 22.
The operating environment of the Corporation is considered a mature and steady industry. In determining the amount of dividends to be distributed, the Corporation takes its future capital expenditures and related factors into account and also seeks to uphold the shareholders’ interests while realizing the Corporation’s long-term financial plan. Dividends are distributed at no less than 40% of profits after tax, but dividends cannot be distributed if the Corporation has deficit. Dividends are paid in the form of cash or stock. The Corporation’s policy is that cash dividends should be at least 20% of total dividends.
The shareholders of the Corporation held their regular meeting in June 2020 and in that meeting, resolved the amendments to the dividend policy of the Corporation’s Articles of Incorporation, where the regulation of “dividends cannot be distributed if the Corporation has a deficit” has been deleted.
Appropriation of earnings to the legal reserve shall be made until the legal reserve equals the Corporation’s paid-in capital. The legal reserve may be used to offset deficit. If the Corporation has no deficit and the legal reserve has exceeded 25% of the Corporation’s paid-in capital, the excess may be transferred to capital or distributed in cash.

In July 2019, the president of the ROC announced the regulations on the Management, Utilization, and Taxation of Repatriated Offshore Funds Act. Within two years from the date of enforcement of this Act, profit-seeking enterprises may be subject to taxation based on these regulations upon approval by the tax authorities. A tax rate of 8% applies to the first year’s repatriation of funds, while a tax rate of 10% applies to the second year’s repatriation of funds; the statutory rate of 20% is not applicable. If substantive investments are subsequently made, profit-seeking enterprises may apply for a refund of 50% of the tax paid for qualifying investment amounts.
For the year ended December 31, 2021, the Corporation repatriated $781,583 thousand (RMB18,913 thousand and EUR20,691 thousand) after approval was obtained from the National Taxation Bureau, Ministry of Finance.

- 52 -
The Corporation may settle the compensation of employees in cash or shares; therefore, the Corporation assumes that the entire amount of the compensation will be settled in shares, and the resulting potential shares will be included in the weighted average number of shares outstanding used in the computation of diluted earnings per share, as the effect is dilutive. Such dilutive effect of the potential shares is included in the computation of diluted earnings per share until the number of shares to be distributed to employees is resolved in the following year.

3) Valuation techniques and inputs applied for Level 3 fair value measurement
-
a) Derivative financial instruments: The fair values of foreign exchange forward contracts of future cash flows are estimated based on observable forward exchange rates at the end of the reporting period and contract forward rates, discounted at a rate that reflects the credit risk of various counterparties.
-
b) Domestic unlisted equity securities to which the market approach was applied: The fair values of domestic unlisted shares were determined with reference to the share prices of listed companies with similar businesses as the Corporation. The material unobservable inputs are as follows:
| Operating income ratio P/B ratio Discount rate for lack of marketability |
December 31 |
|---|---|
| 2021 2020 0.97-4.78 times 0.69-5.21 times 1.08-2.49 times 0.58-2.24 times 32.28% 32.28% |
If the inputs to the valuation model were changed to reflect reasonably possible alternative assumptions while all the other variables were held constant, the fair values of the shares would have increased (decreased) as follows:
| Operating income ratio 0.1 time increase 0.1 time decrease P/B ratio 0.1 time increase 0.1 time decrease |
**December ** | **31 ** | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2021 $ 25,502 $ (25,502) $ 64,027 $ (64,027) |

d. Financial risk management objectives and policies
The Corporation’s major financial instruments include equity and debt investments, accounts receivable and accounts payable. Financial risks include market risk, credit risk, and liquidity risk.
- 1) Market risk
The Corporation’s activities exposed it primarily to the financial risks of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and other price risk.
a) Foreign currency risk
Holding foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities exposes the Corporation to adverse fluctuations of cash flows and the reduction of foreign currency assets due to the changes in foreign currency rate. The Corporation avoids cash flow risk resulting from the changes in adverse foreign currency rate by using derivative contracts.
Sensitivity analysis
The Corporation is mainly exposed to the U.S. dollar (USD), Japanese Yen (JPY) and Renminbi (RMB).
The following table details the Corporation’s sensitivity to a 1% increase and decrease in the New Taiwan dollar against the relevant foreign currencies. The sensitivity rate used when reporting foreign currency risk internally to key management personnel and representing management’s assessment of the reasonably possible change in foreign exchange rates is 1%. The sensitivity analysis included only outstanding foreign currency denominated monetary items, and their translation at the end of the reporting period is adjusted for a 1% change in foreign currency rates. A positive number below indicates an increase in pre-tax profit and equity associated with a 1% strengthening of the New Taiwan dollar against the relevant currency. For a 1% weakening of the New Taiwan dollar against the relevant currency, there would be an equal and opposite impact on pre-tax profit and equity, and the balances below would be negative.

| 2021 $ (4,959) $ (1,805) |
2020 $ (6,873) $ - |
b) Interest rate risk
The carrying amount of the Corporation’s financial assets and financial liabilities with exposure to interest rate risk at the end of the reporting period were as follows.
| Cash flows interest rate risk Financial assets Sensitivity analysis |
December 31 | December 31 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2021 $ 7,831,796 |
2020 $ 7,360,403 |
The sensitivity analysis below were determined based on the Corporation’s exposure to interest rates for non-derivative instruments at the end of the reporting period. For floating rate liabilities, the analysis was prepared assuming the amount of the liability outstanding at the end of the reporting period was outstanding for the whole year. The sensitivity rate of 0.25% is used when reporting interest rate risk internally to key management personnel and represents management’s assessment of the reasonably possible change in interest rates.
If interest rates had been 0.25% higher/lower and all other variables were held constant, the Corporation’s pre-tax profit for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 would increase/decrease by $19,579 thousand and $18,401 thousand, respectively.
The Corporation’s sensitivity to interest rates increased during the current year mainly due to the increase in variable rate asset instruments.
- c) Other price risk
The Corporation was exposed to equity price risk on its investments in listed securities and mutual funds.
Sensitivity analysis
The sensitivity analysis below was determined based on the exposure to equity price risks at the end of the reporting period.
If equity prices had been 5% lower, pre-tax profit for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 would have decreased by $4,023 thousand and $51,159 thousand, respectively, as a result of the changes in fair value of financial assets at FVTPL, and the pre-tax other comprehensive income would have decreased by $790 thousand and $1,518 thousand, respectively, as a result of the changes in fair value of financial assets at FVTOCI.
- 58 -
2) Credit risk
The amounts of financial assets will be potentially impacted if the counterparties of the Corporation or third parties fail to perform their obligations in financial instrument contracts. The impact includes the concentrated degrees, composition parts and contracts amounts of the financial instruments and other receivables. The Corporation believes credit risk is low because the counterparties are creditworthy banks, brokers and dealers.
3) Liquidity risk
The Corporation has sufficient operating capital to meet cash requirements for settlement of derivative transactions. Thus, liquidity risk is low. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Corporation had available unutilized unsecured financing facilities of $4,928,361 thousand and $4,443,979 thousand, respectively.
