Responsibilities of Management and Governance Unit for Consolidated Financial Statement

The management is responsible for preparing an adequately expressed consolidated financial statement in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and international financial reporting standards, international accounting standards, interpretations, and interpretation announcements approved and released to take effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission and maintaining necessary internal control relevant to the compilation of the consolidated financial statement in order to ensure that no significant untruthful expressions caused by frauds or errors exist in the consolidated financial statement.

While preparing the consolidated financial statement, the management is responsible for also evaluating the ability of Grand Pacific Petrochemical Corporation and its subsidiaries to continue with the operation and disclosing related matters and adopting the accounting basis for continued operation, among others. Unless the management intends to liquidate Grand Pacific Petrochemical Corporation and its subsidiaries or discontinue operation or there are no other actually feasible solutions than liquidation or discontinued operation.

The governance unit (including the Audit Committee) of Grand Pacific Petrochemical Corporation and its subsidiaries is responsible for supervising the financial reporting process.

Responsibilities of CPAs in Inspecting Consolidated Financial Statement

We audit the consolidated financial statement in order to be reasonably convinced as to whether the consolidated financial statement as a whole contains major untruthful expressions due to frauds or errors and to issue the audit report. Reasonably convinced is highly convinced. There is no guarantee, however, that the existence of significant untruthful expressions in the consolidated

5

financial statement will be detected according to generally accepted auditing standards. Untruthful expressions might have been caused by frauds or errors. If individual values or an overview of untruthful expressions can be reasonably expected to affect economic decisions made by users of the consolidated financial statement, they are considered significant.

  • We apply our professional judgment and keep our professional doubts while performing the

  • audit according to generally accepted auditing standards. The CPAs also perform the following tasks:

  • Identify and evaluate the risk of significant untruthful expressions in the consolidated financial statement due to frauds or errors, design and enforce appropriate responsive policies for determined risks; and collect sufficient and adequate evidence from the audit in order to render audit opinions. Due to the fact that frauds might involve collusion, forgery, intentional omission, untruthful statement, or non-compliance with internal control, the risk associated with undetected significant untruthful expressions caused by frauds is higher than that caused by errors.

  • Obtain a necessary understanding of internal control concerning the audit in order to design appropriate audit procedures reflective of then-current situation. The purpose, however, is not to effectively express opinions on the internal control of Grand Pacific Petrochemical Corporation.

  • Evaluate the adequacy of accounting policies adopted by the management and the legitimacy of accounting estimates and related disclosures made.

  • Reach a conclusion with regard to the adequacy of the accounting basis adopted to continue with operation by the management and whether significant uncertainties of events or conditions that might result in significant concerns about the ability of Grand Pacific Petrochemical Corporation and its subsidiaries to continue with operation exist or not according to the evidence obtained from the audit. In the event that it is determined that significant uncertainties exist with such events or conditions, on the other hand, the CPAs must remind users of the consolidated financial statement in their audit report that they should pay attention to related disclosures included in the statement or modify their audit opinions if such disclosures are inappropriate. Conclusions made by the CPAs are based on the evidence from the audit obtained as of the date of the audit report. Future events or conditions, however, are likely to result in Grand Pacific Petrochemical Corporation and its subsidiaries no longer capable of continuing with operation.

  • Evaluate the overall expression, structure, and contents of the consolidated financial statement (including related notes) and whether or not the consolidated financial statement has fairly expressed related transactions and events.

  • Obtain sufficient and adequate evidence from the audit regarding the financial information of entities comprising Grand Pacific Petrochemical Corporation and its subsidiaries and express opinions about the consolidated financial statement. The CPAs are responsible for providing guidance on, supervising and implementing audits and for coming up with audit opinions for the Group.

Communications made by the CPAs with governance units include the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings (including significant deficiencies found with internal control during the audit).

The CPAs have also provided the governance units with the declaration on independence that independently governed staff in the accounting firm that the CPAs belong to have followed moral regulations in honor of the profession of CPA and have communicated with the governance units all relationships and other matters considered to be likely undermining the independence of CPAs (including related safeguard measures).

The CPAs, from the matters communicated with the governance units, decided key matters to be included in the 2021 consolidated financial statement audit of Grand Pacific Petrochemical

6

Corporation and its subsidiaries. The CPAs specify such matters in the audit report unless it is disallowed by law to disclose to the public specific matters or under rare circumstances, the CPAs decide not to communicate specific matters in the audit report as it can be reasonably expected that negative impacts from such communication would be greater than the public interest that will be enhanced.

  1. Summary of significant accounting policies

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements are explained below. Unless otherwise specified, these policies have been consistently applied to all the periods presented.

  • (1) Statement of compliance

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and IFRSs endorsed, issued to take effect by FSC.

  • (2) Basis of preparation

  • 1) Except for the following significant items, the consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention:

    • 1) Financial assets and liabilities (including derivative instruments) at fair value through profit or loss measured based on the fair value.

    • 2) Financial assets at fair values through other comprehensive income.

    • 3) The liabilities on the shares-based payment agreement with cash settlement measured based on the fair value.

    • 4) Defined benefit liabilities recognized based on the net amount of pension fund assets less present value of defined benefit obligation.

  • 2) The preparation of financial statements in compliance with IFRSs requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates.

attributed to the owners of the parent and to the non-controlling interests. Total comprehensive income is attributed to the owners of the parent and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.

  • D. Changes in a parent's ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in the parent losing control of the subsidiary (transactions with non-controlling interests) are accounted for as equity transactions, i.e. transactions with owners in their capacity as owners. Any difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognized directly in equity.

  • E. When the Group loses control of a subsidiary, the Group measures any investment retained in the former subsidiary at its fair value. That fair value is regarded as the fair value on initial recognition of a financial asset or the cost on initial recognition of the associate or joint venture. The difference between fair value and carrying amount is recognized in current profit or loss. All amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to the subsidiary are reclassified to profit or loss on other comprehensive income as previously recognized, its accounting treatment is on the same basis as would be required if the related assets or liabilities were disposed directly by the Group. That is, when the Group loses control of a subsidiary, all gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to the subsidiary should be reclassified from equity to profit or loss, if such gains or losses would be reclassified to profit or loss when the related assets or liabilities are disposed of.

(4) Foreign currency translation

1) Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group's entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the "functional currency"). The consolidated financial statements

22

are presented in New Taiwan Dollars, which is the Company's functional and the Group's presentation currency.

  • 2) When preparing financial statements for each entity using currencies other than the entity's functional currency (foreign currency) converted into functional currency at the spot exchange rate on the transaction day or measurement date, and the exchange difference resulting from the translation of these transactions was recognized as current profit and loss. At the end of the financial statement period, the balance of foreign currency monetary assets and liabilities were evaluated and adjusted at the spot exchange rate on the balance sheet date, and translation differences arising from the adjustment were recognized as current profit and loss. In case of foreign currency non-monetary assets and liabilities, the balance was evaluated and adjusted at the spot exchange rate quoted on the balance sheet date as measured at fair value through profit or loss, and the exchange difference arising from the adjustment was recognized as current profit and loss as measured at fair value through comprehensive income. The resulting exchange differences resulting from the adjustment were recognized in other comprehensive income items; where they were not measured at fair value, they were measured at the historical exchange rate on the initial trading day. All gains and losses on exchange were reported according to the attribute of the transaction and other gains and losses in the comprehensive income.

  • 3) When preparing the consolidated financial statements, assets and liabilities of the foreign operations of the companies in merger (including the subsidiaries, associates, joint ventures or branches of the Company in the countries of business operation or those using different currencies) were translated into New Taiwan Dollars at the spot exchange rate quoted on the balance sheet date. The income and expense items were translated using the exchange rates average in that period. All exchange differences arising from the translation were recognized as other comprehensive income.

  • 4) When the foreign operations were disposed of and constituting a loss of control, joint control or significant influence on the foreign operations, all and the relevant interests of the foreign operations would be reclassified into profit or loss. In some cases where the disposal of subsidiaries in foreign operations did not constitute a loss of control of the subsidiary, the cumulative exchange difference recognized in other comprehensive income was calculated into the equity transaction on a pro rata basis, but it was not recognized as profit or loss. In some cases where the interests of the disposal of associates or joint venture in foreign operations did not constitute a significant impact of loss on the associates or joint venture or joint control in interests, the cumulative exchange difference recognized in other comprehensive income was reclassified into profit or loss based on the disposal ratio.

  • (5) Criteria of classification of current and noncurrent assets and liabilities

  • 1) Assets that meet one of the following criteria are classified as current assets:

    • A. Assets arising from operating activities that are expected to be realized, or are intended to be sold or consumed within the normal operating cycle;

    • B. Assets arising mainly from trading activities;

    • C. Assets that are expected to be realized within twelve months from the balance sheet date;

    • D. Cash & cash equivalents unless the asset is restricted from being used for an

23

exchange or used to settle a liability for more than twelve months after the balance sheet date.

The Group classifies the assets that do not satisfy the above conditions as noncurrent.

  • 2) Liabilities that meet one of the following criteria are classified as current liabilities:

    • A. Liabilities that are expected to be paid off within the normal operating cycle;

    • B. Liabilities arising mainly from trading activities;

    • C. Liabilities that are to be paid off within twelve months from the balance sheet date;

    • D. Liabilities for which the Company does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve (12) months after the balance sheet date. Terms of a liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments do not affect its classification.

    • The Group classifies the liabilities that do not satisfy the above conditions as noncurrent.

  • (6) Cash & cash equivalents

Cash & cash equivalents include cash on hand, bank deposits, and short-term and highly liquidity investments that could be converted into cash in fixed amounts at any time with little change in value risk. Time deposits that meet the aforementioned definitions and are held for short-term operations cash promise are classified as cash equivalent.

  • (7) Financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities should be recognized when the Group became a party to the terms of the financial instruments contract.

When financial assets and financial liabilities were initially recognized, they were measured at the fair value. At the time of initial recognition, the transaction costs acquired or issued directly attributable to financial assets and financial liabilities (unless classified as financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss), shall be added or subtracted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities. The transaction costs directly attributable to financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss should be recognized immediately as profit or loss.

  • (8) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

  • 1) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include financial assets mandatorily measured at fair value through profit or loss and designation as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. The financial assets mandatorily measured at fair value through profit or loss include investments in equity instruments that the Group does not specify at fair value through other comprehensive income, and investments in debt instruments that did not qualify as being measured at amortized cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income.

  • 2) In a case carried at amortized costs or financial assets at fair values through other comprehensive income, when measurement or recognition inconsistency could be eliminated or significantly reduced, the Group designated the case as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss at the time of initial recognition.

  • 3) The Group adopts transaction day accounting for financial assets at fair value

24

through profit or loss consistent with transaction customs.

  • 4) The Group measured at fair value at the time of initial recognition, and recognized related transaction costs in profit or loss and subsequently measured at fair value and the gains or losses were recognized in profit or loss.

  • 5) When the right to receive dividends was ascertained and the economic benefits related to dividends were likely to flow inward while the amount of dividends could be reliably measured, the Group recognized the dividend income in profit or loss.

  • (9) Financial assets at fair values through other comprehensive income

  • 1) Referring to an irrevocable option at the time of initial recognition to report changes in the fair value of investments in equity instruments that were not held for trading in other comprehensive income; or the investment in debt instrument simultaneously met the following conditions:

    • A. The financial asset held under the business model of collecting cash flows under contracts and for the purposes of selling.

    • B. The cash flow generated on a specific date under the contract terms for the financial assets were completely intended to pay off the principal and the interest of the outstanding principals.

  • 2) The Group adopts transaction day accounting for financial assets at fair value through comprehensive income consistent with transaction customs.

  • 3) The Group measured at fair value plus transaction costs at initial recognition, and subsequently at fair value:

    • A. Changes in the fair value of equity instruments were recognized in other comprehensive income. When derecognized, the cumulative gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income would not be reclassified to profit or loss and would be transferred to retained earnings instead. When the right to receive dividends was ascertained and the economic benefits related to dividends were likely to flow inward while the amount of dividends could be reliably measured, the Group recognized the dividend income in profit or loss.

    • B. Changes in the fair value of debt instruments were recognized in other comprehensive income, impairment losses before derecognition, interest income and gains and losses in foreign currency exchange were recognized in profit or loss, and at the time of derecognition, the cumulative gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income were reclassified from the equity into profit or loss.

  • (10) Financial assets carried at amortized cost

  • 1) Referring to the events that conform with the conditions as below simultaneously:

    • A. The financial assets held under the business model for the purposes of collecting cash flows under contracts.

    • B. The cash flow generated on a specific date under the contract terms for the financial assets were completely intended to pay off the principal and the interest of the outstanding principals.

  • 2) The Group adopts transaction day accounting for financial assets carried at amortized cost consistent with transaction customs.

25

  • 3) The Group measured at fair value plus transaction costs at initial recognition, and subsequently used the effective interest method to recognize interest income during the circulation period based on the amortization process, and recognized impairment losses, and when derecognized, the gains or losses were recognized in profit or loss.

  • 4) The Group held time deposits that were not eligible for cash equivalent. As the holding period was short, the effect of discounting was insignificant, which was measured by the amount of investment.

(11) Accounts & notes receivable

Referring to the contract which had been received unconditionally for the accounts and notes for the right to consideration exchanged due to the transfer of products or labor services. As short-term accounts & notes receivable were paid without bearing interest, the impact of the discounting was insignificant, therefore, the Group measured at the initial amount.

  • (12) Impairment of financial assets

For investment in debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income, and financial assets carried at amortized cost and accounts receivable or contract assets that contain significant financial components, rent receivables, lending commitments and financial guarantee contracts, The Group, after considering all reasonable and corroborable information (including forward-looking perspectives) on each balance sheet date, measured by the amount of expected credit loss in 12 months toward an insignificant increase in credit risk since initial recognition. For the credit risk has increased significantly since the original recognition, the allowance for loss was measured by the amount of expected credit loss during the existence period. For accounts or contract assets that do not include significant financial components, the allowance for losses measured by the amount of expected credit loss during the existence period.

  • (13) Derecognition of financial assets

The Group will derecognize financial assets when one of the following conditions is met:

  • 1) When rights to contract of receiving cash flow from financial asset has expired.

  • 2) Transfer of right to contract of receiving cash flow from financial asset, and when nearly all risk and reward associated with the said financial assets have been transferred.

  • 3) Transfer of rights to contract of receiving cash flow from financial asset, and excluding control over the financial assets.

  • (14) Lease transaction of the lessor - rent receivables/operating leases

  • 1) Pursuant to the terms and conditions under the lease agreements, when almost all the risks and rewards of lease ownership were borne by the lessee, they are classified as finance leases.

    • A. As the lease started up, the net lease investment (including the original direct cost) was recognized as "rent receivables", and the difference between the total lease receivables and the present value was recognized as "unearned financing income from finance leases".

    • B. Subsequent adoption of a systematic and reasonable basis to distribute financing income over the lease period to reflect a fixed rate of return on the

26

net lease investment held by the lessor.

  - C. The period related lease payments (excluding service costs) offset the total lease investment to reduce the principal and unearned financing income.
  • 2) Lease income from operating leases, net of any incentives given to the lessee, was recognized as a current profit or loss and amortized on a straight line basis during the lease period.

  • (15) Inventory

Inventories were measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value, whichever is the lower under the perpetual inventory system adopted, and the cost was determined by the weighted average method. The cost of finished goods and work in progress includes raw materials, direct labor, other direct costs, and production-related manufacturing overhead (as normal capacity distribution), but excludes borrowing costs. Upon comparison of cost and the net realizable value, whichever was the lower, the itemized comparison method was adopted. The net realizable value refers to the estimated selling price in the normal course of business less the estimated cost that must be invested to completion and the balance after related changes in selling expenses.

  • (16) Investments accounted for using the equity method/associates

  • 1) Associates are all entities over which the Group has significant influence but not control. In general, it is presumed that the investor has significant influence, if an investor holds, directly or indirectly 20 percent or more of the voting power of the investee. Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method and are initially recognized at cost, including the goodwill already identified upon acquisition, with any accumulated impairment loss estimated to occur subsequently deducted.

  • 2) The share of profit or loss for the Group after acquisition of an associate is recognized as current profit and loss and the share of other comprehensive income after acquisition is recognized as other comprehensive income. When the Group's share of loss in an associate is equal to or exceeds the equity in the associate, including any other unsecured receivables, the Group does not recognize further losses, unless it has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate.

  • 3) The profits and losses generated from the fair current, countercurrent and side stream transactions between the Group and associates were recognized in the financial statements only to the extent that the Group has no interest in the associates. The accounting policies of associates have been adjusted as necessary, and the policies adopted by the Group have been consistent.

  • 4) When changes in an associate's equity are not recognized in profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the associate and such changes do not affect the Group's shareholding ratio of the associate, the Group recognizes the Group's share of change in equity of the associate in 'capital reserves' in shareholding ratio .

  • 5) In the case that an associate issues new shares and the Group does not subscribe or acquire new shares proportionately, which results in a change in the Group's investment percentage of the associate but maintains significant influence on the associate, then 'capital surplus' and 'investments accounted for using the equity method' shall be adjusted for the increase or decrease of its changes in net equity. If the above condition causes a decrease in the Group's ownership percentage of the associate, in addition to the above adjustment, the profit or loss previously

27

recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to the ownership interest are reclassified to profit or loss proportionately on the same basis as would be required if the relevant assets or liabilities were disposed of.

  • 6) Upon loss of significant influence over an associate, the Group remeasures any investment retained in the former associate at its fair value. Any difference between fair value and carrying amount is recognized in current profit or loss.

  • 7) When the Group disposes its investment in an associate and loses significant influence over this associate, the amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to the associate are reclassified to profit or loss or transferred directly to retained earnings, on the same basis as would be required if the relevant assets or liabilities were disposed of. If it still retains significant influence over this associate, then the amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to the associate are reclassified to profit or loss proportionately in accordance with the aforementioned approach.

  • 8) When the Group disposes its investment in an associate and loses significant influence over this associate, the amounts previously recognized as capital surplus in relation to the associate are transferred to profit or loss. If it still retains significant influence over this associate, then the amounts previously recognized as capital surplus in relation to the associate are transferred to profit or loss proportionately.

  • (17) Property, plant and equipment

  • 1) Property, plant and equipment are initially recorded at cost. Loans costs incurred during the construction period are capitalized.

  • 2) Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognized. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to profit or loss during the financial period in which they are incurred.

  • 3) Land is not depreciated. The subsequent measurement of other property, plant and equipment apply cost model and are depreciated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost over their estimated useful lives. Each part of an item of property, plant, and equipment with a cost that is significant in relation to the total cost of the item must be depreciated separately.

  • 4) The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed by the Group at each financial year-end. If expectations for the assets' residual values and useful lives differ from previous estimates or the patterns of consumption of the assets' future economic benefits embodied in the assets have changed significantly, any change is accounted for as a change in estimate under IAS 8 'Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors', from the date of the change. The estimated useful lives of various assets are as follows:

    • A. Buildings & constructions 4 - 46 years

    • B. Machinery & equipment 5 - 25 years

    • C. Transportation facilities 2 - 7 years D. Other equipment 3 - 15 years

  • 5) Property, plant and equipment is derecognized when disposed or with no economic benefit expected via utilization or disposal. The gain or loss from

28

derecognizing property, plant and equipment recognized as profit or loss during the year at the difference between the proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset.

  • 6) The Group's depreciable assets were originally used in the rate-decreasing method at the time of tax declaration; however, the Group has switched to use the average method in Year 1998. This change was already approved by the National Taxation Bureau of the Southern Area, Ministry of Finance with Letter (1998) Nan-QuGuo-Shui-Shen-I-Zi 87051967.

  • (18) Lease agreements of the lessee - right-of-use assets/lease liabilities

  • 1) Lease assets were recognized as right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on the date when they became available for use by the Group. When the lease agreement was a short-term lease or lease of a low-value underlying asset, the lease payment was recognized as expense by straight-line method.

  • 2) In lease liabilities, the Group recognized the unpaid lease payments at the lease starting date at the present value of the Group’s incremental loan rate discounted. The lease payments include fixed payments, less any incentives that could be received for the lease. Subsequently the Group measure at the amortized cost method under the interest method and recorded as interest expenses during the lease period. When the non-contract modification caused a change in the lease period or lease payment, the lease liabilities would be reassessed, and the remeasurements would be adjusted to right-of-use assets.

  • 3) The right-of-use assets were recognized at cost on the lease starting date and the cost includes the original measured amount of lease liabilities. The subsequent measurement using cost model which were earlier at the end of the useful life of the right-of-use assets or at the end of the lease period while depreciation expenses were recorded. When lease liabilities were reassessed, right-of-use assets would adjust any remeasurement of the lease liabilities.

(19) Investment property

The investment property was real property held to earn either rent or capital appreciation or both, and also included real property held for which the future use has not yet been determined. The investment property was originally measured by acquisition cost, and was subsequently reduced by cost except for accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss where the amount was measured. Except for land, depreciation was provided on the straight-line method according to the estimated useful life which was 40 ~ 56 years. While the investment property was derecognized, the difference between the net disposal price and the carrying amount of such assets was recognized in current profit or loss.

  • (20) Intangible assets

1) Obtained separately

The intangible assets acquired separately for a limited useful life were originally measured at cost and subsequently at the amount of the costs deducted with the accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. Intangible assets were amortized on a straight-line basis over the useful life. All such facts of the estimated useful life, residual value and amortization method should be reassessed at end of every fiscal year as the minimum to postpone the impact of changes in applicable accounting estimates. When Intangible assets derecognized, the difference between the net disposal price and the carrying amount of the asset was recognized in the profit or loss of the current year.

29

2) Goodwill

The goodwill obtained from the business combination was based on the amount of goodwill recognized on the acquisition date as the cost, which was subsequently measured by the amount of the cost after subtracting the accumulated impairment losses. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill needs to be allocated to each cash-generating unit or cash-generating units that the Group expects to benefit from the merger concerted performance.

(21) Cost of program broadcasting

The cost of program broadcasting include the proceeds acquired on outsourcing film broadcasting rights outsourced investment in filming or self-made programs, and the production costs with future economic benefits which were entered into accounts at the substantial costs. The outsourcing film broadcasting rights depends on individual programs and was transferred to the amortization of the film under the current operating cost during actual playback. The sub-authorized film broadcasting right was transferred into the film sub-authorization cost under the current operating cost when actually delivered. The outsourced investment in filming and the self-made ribbontype program would be converted into the production cost and filming cost under the current operating cost during the actual broadcast. The cost of the broadcast program was recorded under other noncurrent assets, and was expected to be amortized within one year as other current assets. For other current assets, if the fair value at the end of the year was estimated to be lower than the accounted unamortized cost, the impairment loss would be recognized as the loss of the current year.

(22) Impairment loss on non-financial assets

The Group estimates the recoverable amount of assets with signs of impairment on the balance sheet date. When the recoverable amount was lower than its carrying amount, the impairment loss would be recognized. The recoverable amount refers to the fair value of an asset less disposal cost or its value in use, whichever is higher. Except for goodwill, when the impairment of assets recognized in previous years did not exist or decrease, the impairment loss would be reversed, but the asset carrying amount increased by the impairment loss should not exceed the carrying amount after depreciation or amortization of the asset if no impairment loss was recognized.

(23) Loans

Loans are recognized initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Loans are subsequently stated at amortized cost; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognized in profit or loss over the period of the loans using the effective interest method.

(24) Notes and accounts payable

Notes and accounts payable are obligations to pay for products or labor services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. They are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. However, short-term accounts payable without bearing interest are subsequently measured at initial invoice amount as the effect of discounting is immaterial.

  • (25) Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss

  • 1) Referring to the main purpose of the sale or repurchase in the latest period, and financial liabilities held for trading except for derivatives instruments that are designated as hedging instruments under hedge accounting. The financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss were designated on the Initial

30

recognition. When a financial liability meets one of the following conditions, the Group measured at fair value through profit loss on the initial recognition:

  • A. As hybrid (combined) contracts; or

  • B. Where the inconsistency in significant decrease measurement or recognition could be eliminated; or

  • C. Pursuant to the documented risk management policies, the instruments with performance evaluated in fair value based management.

  • 2) The Group measured at fair value at the time of initial recognition, and recognized the related transaction costs in profit or loss and subsequently measured at fair value and the gains or losses were recognized in profit or loss.

  • 3) In case of a financial liability designated to be measured at fair value through profit or loss where the amount of change in fair value resulted from credit risk, except for avoiding improper accounting ratios or loan commitments and financial guarantee contracts, the Group recognized the same in other comprehensive income.

(26) Provisions

The Group is under current statutory or constructive obligation due to past events, very likely that economically efficient resources would need to be discharged to settle such obligation and the amount of the obligation could be reliably estimated when the provisions were recognized. The measurement of provisions is based on optimal estimated present value of the expenditure required to settle the obligation on the balance sheet date. The discount rate uses the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the current market assessment of the time value of currency and the specific risk of the liability. The amortization discounted is recognized as interest expenses. The future loss in operations should not be recognized as provisions.

(27) Employee benefits

1) Short-term employee benefits

Short-term employee benefits are measured at the undiscounted amount of the benefits expected to be paid in respect of service rendered by employees in a period and should be recognized as expenses in that period when the employees render service.

2) Post-employment benefits

  • A. Defined contribution plans

For defined contribution plans, the contributions of pension funds are recognized as current pension expenses when they are due on an accrual basis. Prepaid contributions are recognized as an asset to the extent of a cash refund or a reduction in the future payments.

  • B. Defined benefit plans

  • Net obligation under a defined benefit plans is defined as the present value of an amount of future benefits that employees will receive for their services with the Company in the current year or prior periods, and the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the balance sheet date less the fair value of plan assets. The defined benefit obligation is calculated annually by independent actuaries using the projected unit credit method. The discount rate is determined by reference to the balance sheet date, the currency of defined benefit

31

plans and the market yield of high-quality corporate bonds that were consistent during the period. The countries of such bonds without indepth market adopt the market yield of government bonds (as of the balance sheet date).

  • Remeasurement arising on defined benefit plans is recognized in other comprehensive income in the current year in which they arise, and expressed in the retained earnings.

  • The expenses related to the service cost of the prior period were immediately recognized into profit or loss.

3) Termination benefits

Termination benefits refers to the benefits provided by the termination of the employment before the normal retirement date or when the employee decides to accept the Company’s benefits offer in exchange for termination of the employment. The cost of restructuring was not recognized until the moment while the Group could no longer revoke a contract for termination benefits or the restructuring cost was recognized, whichever came the earlier. Termination benefits that were not expected to be fully settled 12 months after the balance sheet date should be discounted.

  • 4) Compensation to employees and remuneration to directors and supervisors

Compensation to employees and remuneration to directors and supervisors are recognized as expenses and liabilities, provided that such recognition is required under legal or constructive obligation and those amounts can be reliably estimated. Subsequently, any difference between actual distributed amounts as resolved and estimated mounts is accounted for as changes in estimates.

  • (28) Financial liabilities & equity instruments

1) Classification of financial liabilities or equity instruments

The liability and equity instruments issued by the Group were classified as financial liabilities or equity according to the substance of the contract agreement and the definition of financial liabilities & equity instruments.

2) Equity instruments

The “equity instruments” refers to any contract that recognizes the remaining equity of an enterprise after the assets are deducted from all its liabilities. The equity instruments issued by the Group are recognized at the price obtained after deducting the direct issue cost.

3) Financial liabilities

In case of financial liabilities that were not held for trading purposes and were not designated as measured at fair value through profit or loss, such financial liabilities were measured at amortized cost at the end of the subsequent accounting period.

  • 4) Derecognition of financial liabilities

The Group did not derecognize financial liabilities until the obligations were lifted, cancelled or lapsed. When financial liabilities were derecognized, the difference between their carrying amount and total consideration paid or payable (including any transferred non-cash assets or liabilities assumed) was recognized into profit or loss.

  • 5) Inter-offset of financial assets and liabilities

32

The financial assets and financial liabilities were not offset against each other and expressed in net in balance sheet until there was a legally enforceable right to offset the recognized amount of financial assets and liabilities with an intention to deliver on a net basis or achieve assets and liquidate liabilities at the same time.

  • (29) Share capital & treasury stocks

1) Share capital

Common shares were classified as equity. The classification of preferred shares refers to the definition of substantial contractual agreement, financial liabilities and equity instruments, and evaluates the specific rights attached to preferred shares. When the basic characteristics of financial liabilities were exhibited, they were classified as liabilities; otherwise they would be an equity. The net of increase in costs directly attributable to issuance of new share or share warrants after deducting income tax is recorded as the deduction of share prices.

2) Treasury stocks

The Group withdrew the issued outstanding shares and recognized them as "treasury stocks" based on the consideration paid at the time of purchase (including direct attributable costs) as a deduction of equity. Where the price of the disposal of treasury stocks is higher than the carrying amount, the difference was listed as capital surplus-treasury stocks transactions. Where the disposal price is lower than the carrying amount, the difference is offset against the asset surplus generated by the exchange of the same type of treasury stocks. In case of a shortfall, the surplus is debited in the retained earnings. The carrying amount of treasury stocks is taken weighted average and calculated separately according to the reason for recovery.

When treasury stocks are cancelled, the capital reserve is debited according to the proportion of equity - share certificates issuance premium and share capital, where the carrying amount is higher than the face value and the total value of the stock issuance premium, the difference would be offset against the capital generated by the exchange of the same type of treasury stocks. In case of a shortfall, it would be offset against the retained earnings. Where the carrying amount is lower than the face value and the total of the stock issuance premium, the capital reserve generated by the same type of treasury stocks exchanges would be credited.

Where subsidiary held the Group's stocks using the equity method to recognize the share of profit and loss and prepare financial statements, the subsidiary's stocks of the Group should be dealt with as treasury stocks.

(30) Shares-based payment

  • 1) The shares-based payment agreement upon equity settlement was pursuant to the employee service acquired at fair value of the given equity commodities on the given day, and was recognized as compensation costs during the vesting period, and the equity was relatively adjusted. The fair value of equity commodities should be reflected with the influence of the market price vested conditions and the non-vested conditions. The recognized compensation cost was adjusted according to the expected amount of incentive rewards that meet the service condition and the non-market price vested condition until the final recognition amount was recognized in the vested amount.

  • 2) The shares-based payment agreement settled in cash was based on the fair value of the liabilities assumed, recognized as compensation costs and liabilities within the vesting period, and was based on the fair value of the equity commodities

33

given on each balance sheet date and settlement date to measure, any change recognized as profit or loss of the current year.

  • (31) Income tax

  • 1) The income tax expenses comprise current and deferred income tax. Income tax is recognized in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognized in other comprehensive income or items recognized directly in equity, in which cases the income tax is recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.

  • 2) The Group calculates the income tax payable for the current term exactly in accordance with the tax rates that had been enacted or substantially enacted in the countries for the income tax as of the balance sheet date. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in accordance with applicable relevant laws of income tax, and under the fact of situations, the income tax liabilities estimated shall be paid to tax collection authority. The undistributed earnings having been consolidated were charged for the income tax. The income tax expense of undistributed earnings was recognized based on the actual distribution of the earning as resolved in the shareholders’ meeting in the year ensuing the year in which the earnings were yielded.

  • 3) Deferred income tax is recognized, using the balance sheet liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amount in the balance sheets. However, the deferred income tax is not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred income tax is provided on temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries and associates, except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference is controlled by the Group and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted as of the balance sheet date and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realized or the deferred income tax liability is settled.

  • 4) Deferred income tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilized. At each balance sheet date, unrecognized and recognized deferred income tax assets are reassessed.

  • 5) Current income tax assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the balance sheet when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset on the balance sheet when the entity has the legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and they are levied by the same taxation authority on either the same entity or different entities that intend to settle on a net basis or realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

  • 6) The Group's tax incentives oriented expenditures that comply with the statutory incentives were accounted with use of income tax deduction accounting. The unused income tax credit was transferred into the latter period of time within the scope as the credit ready for future use, duly recognized deferred income tax assets.

  • 7) The difference between the previous year's estimated income tax of the Group and the adjustment difference approved by the tax collection authority was recognized

34

as the adjustment items of the income tax of the current year.

  • (32) Recognition of revenues

After identifying the performance obligations under a customer contract, the Group allocated the transaction price to each performance obligation and recognized revenue when the performance obligations were fulfilled.

  • 1) Sales revenues

  • A. All products manufactured by the Group and sold into the market were recognized as revenue when the control over the product was transferred to the customers. To put it in more understandable terms, when the products were delivered to the customers, the customers have discretion on the channel and price of product sales, and the Group was not in any outstanding performance obligations that might affect the customers’ acceptance of the products. When the products were shipped to a designated location, the risk of obsolescence and loss has been transferred to the customers and the customers would accept the products according to the sales contract. The delivery of the products did not occur until there was objective evidence to prove all standards/criteria for acceptance have been met.

  • B. Where the Group provides standard warranty on the products sold and is obliged to refund for defective products, the provisions were recognized at the moment of sales.

  • C. Accounts receivable were recognized at the moment when the goods were delivered to the customers. At that timepoint, the Group was entitled to the unconditional rights to the contract price and the price could be received from the customers only after the time elapsed. The advance receipts before the arrival of the products was recognized as a contract liability.

  • D. The control of the ownership of the processed products was not transferred upon processing of the materials so that the income was not recognized when the material was forwarded.

  • 2) Labor service revenues

  • A. Advertising revenues

The Group and the customers signed advertising broadcast contracts and recognized the revenues when the actual broadcast was completed based on the degree of fulfillment of the performance obligation. The degree of completion of the performance obligation was determined based on the percentage of the actual performance of the required services to the entire labor service under this Agreement.

  • B. Video revenues

The Group and the customers signed fundamental channel agency contracts to provide cable TV operators and other public broadcasters with self-made programs or transmission on behalf of channels through satellites for viewers through cable TV system or network platforms. Throughout the duration of the labor service contracts, the Group continually fulfilled the obligations to provide users with TV channel viewing rights and network bandwidth usage rights as well as other performance obligations. All revenues so received were recognized as income on a straight-line basis during the period of contract services.

  • C. Licensing revenues

35

The Group and the customers signed contracts to license the Group's film broadcasting rights and program copyrights to the customers. Where the licensing authorization was distinguishable, the licensing income was recognized during the licensing period according to the nature of the licensing authorization, or the timepoint of control of the right as transferred to the customers. When the Group intended to carry out events that would significantly affect the film broadcasting rights and program copyrights which would, in turn, directly affect the licensed customers and such events would not result in the transfer of labor services to customers, the nature of the licensing authorization was to provide access for the rights of intellectual property rights. The relevant royalties were recognized as income on a straight-line basis during the licensing period. In an event where the licensing did not meet the foregoing conditions and its nature was to provide customers with the right to use intellectual property rights, the income was recognized at the time of licensing transfer.

  • D. The customers fulfilled payment obligations in accordance with the payment schedule agreed in a contract. When the service provided by the Group exceeded the customers’ payment value, the payment was recognized as a contract asset. If the customer payable exceeds the labor service provided by the Group, it was recognized as a contract liability.

3) Refund liabilities

Sales and labor service revenues were recognized at the contract price net of estimated discounts and other similar discounts. The amounts recognized as revenues would be limited to the portion of the future height that was unlikely to undergo a major turnaround, and was included in each asset estimates updated on the balance sheet date. Sales and labor service estimated discounts payable to customers and other similar discounts as of the balance sheet date were recognized as refund liabilities.

4) Financing component

Under the contracts signed by and between the Group and the customers, the collection conditions of the sales and labor service transactions were consistent with the market practice. It was, therefore, judged that the contracts did not contain a significant financing component. In addition, the time interval for transferring the promised goods or labor services and receiving the consideration amidst the contracts was within one year. The significant financing component would not adjust the transaction price to reflect the time value of the currency.

5) Costs to acquire contracts from customers

Although the incremental costs incurred by the Group in obtaining a customer contract were expected to be recoverable, the relevant contract period was shorter than one year. These costs were, therefore, recognized as current operating costs or expenses at the moment of occurrence.

(33) Government grants

Government grants are recognized at their fair value only when there is reasonable assurance that the Group will comply with any conditions attached to the grants and the grants will be received. Government grants are recognized in profit or loss on a systematic basis over the periods in which the Group recognizes expenses for the related costs for which the grants are intended to compensate. If it is intended for the purpose of providing immediate financial support to the Group and there is no future

36

related cost, it got the profit or loss recognized during the period when such could be received. Such government grants related to property, plant and equipment were recognized as noncurrent liabilities, and were recognized as current profit or loss using the straight-line method based on the estimated useful life of the relevant assets.

  1. Major sources leading to material accounting judgments, estimates and assumption uncertainties

The results of the Group’s consolidated financial statements would be affected by the adoption of accounting policies, accounting estimates and assumptions. Therefore, when the Group adopted the significant accounting policies under Note 4, the acquisition of assets from other sources would result in the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the next information on significant adjustment risks in the consolidated financial statements that would require management to use appropriate professional judgment, estimates and assumption uncertainties. The Group’s estimates and relevant assumptions were based on the optimal estimates pursuant to the requirements of IFRS endorsed and issued to take effect by the FSC. Estimates and assumptions would be based on historical experience and other factors considered to be relevant, but actual results and estimates might differ. The Group continues to review the estimates and assumptions. Where the revision of the estimate would only affect the current year, the accounting estimate would be recognized in the current year. Where the estimation affects both the current year and the future period, then it would be recognized in the estimated and amended current year and future period.

  • (1) Major judgments to adopt accounting policies

In addition to an involvement in judgments related to and estimates (see (2) below), the management’s judgments in the process of adopting accounting policies that have the most significant impact on the recognized amounts of the financial statements are as follows:

  • 1) Judgment of business model of financial asset classification

The Group evaluates the business model of financial assets based on the level of financial assets that are jointly managed to achieve a specific business purpose. This evaluation calls for consideration of all relevant evidence, including asset performance measurement methods, risks affecting performance, and the salary determination method of relevant managers, salary determination method where the judgment was required. The Group continuously assesses whether its business model judgment is appropriate, and monitors the financial assets carried at amortized cost and investment in debts instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income to look into the reasons for its disposition to assess whether the disposition would be consistent with the business model's objectives. Whenever the business model was found to have changed, the Group would postpone the adjustment of the subsequent classification of financial assets.

  • 2) Commitment to operating lease - the Group is the Lessor

The Group has signed commercial property agreements toward some property portfolios. Based on its evaluation of the agreed terms, the Group still retains significant risks and rewards of ownership of these properties and treats these leases as operating leases.

  • 3) Investment property

The purpose of part of the property held by the Group was intended to earn rent or capital appreciation. It also includes property held for the purpose of which the future has not yet been determined. Other parts were used by the Group itself. When the respective parts could be solely sold, such property would not be

37

classified under the investment property only the portion in the Group’s own use accounted for a not significant portion of the respective property.

4) Leased term

In determining the lease term of the leased assets, the Group takes into account all relevant facts and circumstances that might generate economic incentives to exercise (or not to exercise) the option, including all facts and circumstances from the start of the lease to the day when the option is exercised with expected changes. The main factors taken into account include the contract terms and conditions during the period covered within the option, significant lease interest improvements during the contract period, and the importance of the underlying assets to the lessee's operations and the like. Significant changes in such matters or circumstances within the control of the Group when it occurred while the Group reassessed the lease term anew.

(2) Major accounting estimation & assumptions

The accounting estimates conducted by the Group were based on the reasonable expectations of future events on the grounds of the situation on a specific day, but the actual results might differ from the estimates, and the assets and liabilities of the next financial year might have significant adjustments to the risk of carrying amount and assumptions. Please note the following instructions:

1) Estimated impairment of financial assets

The impairment of accounts receivable and contract assets was estimated based on the Group's assumptions about the default rate and the expected loss rate. The Group took into account historical experience, current market conditions and forward-looking information to work out assumptions and select input values for impairment assessment. For more details regarding the important assumptions and input values please refer to Note 6(4). In the event that the actual future cash flow is below expected, it might cause significant impairment losses. The carrying amount of the Group’s receivables and contract assets was NT$3,532,436 thousand and NT$2,611,098 thousand, respectively, as of December 31, 2021 and 2020 (After deducting allowance losses at NT$3,558 thousand and NT$5,536 thousand, respectively)

2) Evaluation of inventory

Since inventory should be measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value, the Group shall use judgment and estimation to decide the net realizable value at the balance sheet date. Due to the rapid changes of the industrial environment, the Group assesses the amount of inventory on the balance sheet date that has undergone normal wear and tear, obsolescence or no market sales value, and will mark down the cost of inventories to the net realizable value. This assessment of inventories primarily uses product need within a certain period in the future as the basis of estimation, and thus material changes could occur. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the carrying amount of the Group's inventories was NT$2,301,478 thousand and NT$1,203,284 thousand, respectively. (After deducting loss on allowance for obsolescence and market price decline of inventories of NT$92,250 thousand and NT$33,978 thousand, respectively)

3) Fair value measurement and evaluation process

Where the assets and liabilities measured at fair value were not quoted in the active market, the Group would decide whether to outsource the valuation and determine the appropriate fair value technology according to relevant laws or judgments.

38

Where the fair value was estimated, Level 1 input value could not be obtained for the value, the Group would refer to the analysis of the financial status and operating results of the investee, the latest transaction price, the quote of the same equity instrument in the non-active market, the quote of similar instruments in the active market, and the comparable company evaluation multiplier to determine the input value. If the actual changes in future input values and expectations would differ, fair value changes might occur. The Group regularly updated each input value according to market conditions to monitor whether fair value measurement was appropriate. For more details regarding the fair value evaluation techniques and input value, please refer to the descriptions of Note 12(4). As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Group's holdings of unlisted company stocks and limited partnership investments showed the carrying amounts of NT$1,156,198 thousand and NT$825,583 thousand, respectively.

  • 4) Evaluation on impairment of investment accounted for using the equity method

Whenever there was an indication of impairment that an investment accounted for using the equity method might have been impaired while the carrying amount could not be recovered, the Group immediately assessed the impairment of the investment. The Group assessed the impairment based on the discounted value of the expected future cash flow of the investee or cash dividends receivable to be expected and disposal of the discounted value of future cash flows from the investment to assess the recoverable amount and analyze the reasonableness of its related assumptions. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020 after the Group’s prudent assessment of the results, there showed no significant impairment loss.

  • 5) Assessment onto the impairment of tangible assets, intangible assets (except goodwill) and other noncurrent assets

In the process of asset impairment assessment, the Group was required to rely on subjective judgment and asset usage patterns and industry characteristics to determine the independent cash flow of a particular asset group, years of useful life, the future revenue and expenses that might be cause significant impairment in the future due to economic condition changes or estimated changes caused by strategies. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the accumulated impairment of tangible assets, intangible assets (except goodwill) and other noncurrent assets recognized by the Group was NT$75,641 thousand and NT$78,732 thousand, respectively.

  • 6) Evaluation on impairment in goodwill

Upon determination whether goodwill has been impaired, the use value of the cash-generating unit allocated to goodwill needs to be estimated. To calculate the use value, the management should estimate the future cash flows expected to be generated from the cash-generating unit and decide on appropriate discount rate of the use of the present value. If the actual cash flow became less than expected, significant impairment losses might occur. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the amount of goodwill impairment recognized by the Group amounted to NT$15,155 thousand for both.

  • 7) Realizability of deferred income tax assets

Deferred income tax assets are recognized when there is a possibility in the future that there would be sufficient taxable income for the purpose of deducting temporary differences. Upon assessment of the realizability of deferred income tax assets, significant accounting judgments and estimations of the management must be involved including expected future sales revenue growth and profit

39

margins, usable income tax credits, tax planning and other assumptions. Any changes in the global economic environment, industrial environment and changes in laws and regulations might cause significant adjustment of deferred income tax assets. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the deferred income tax assets recognized by the Group were NT$56,547 thousand and NT$46,396 thousand respectively. The deferred income tax assets not recognized by the Group due to non-probable taxable income were to NT$18,205 thousand and NT$12,907 thousand, respectively.

8) Calculation of long-term employee benefits liabilities

Upon calculation of the present value of the benefit obligations, the Group must use judgments and estimates to determine the relevant actuarial hypotheses on the balance sheet date, including the discount rate and future salary growth rate. Any changes in actuarial assumptions should significantly affect the Group’s amount of defined benefit obligations. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the carrying amounts of the Group’s long-term employee benefits liabilities (including net defined benefit liabilities and provisions - noncurrent) were NT$64,212 thousand and NT$78,120 thousand, respectively.

  • 9) Lessee's incremental loan interest rate

When determining the interest rate of the lessees' incremental loan used for discounting lease payments, the Group used the risk-free interest rate of the equivalent duration and currency as the reference interest rate, and discounted the estimated lessee's credit risk allowance and lease specific adjustments (e.g., asset characteristics and factors such as guarantees) to be taken into account.

The above analysis is based on the number of days past due.

The expected credit loss rate of the Group's aforementioned account aging intervals (excluding abnormal amounts which should be recorded at 100%): except the impairment losses recognized for individual customers according to actual credit losses, accounts non-overdue and overdue within 90 days from 0% to 50%; 91 to 365 days overdue from 30% to 100%, more than 365 days overdue 100%.

The Group's accounts receivable not overdue were expected to have a very low risk of credit loss; For other accounts receivable which had been overdue as of the balance sheet date, the Group has taken into account other credit enhancement protection, post-period collection, and deductions and the like. After reasonable and corroborable information, it is assessed that there was no significant change in its credit quality, and the credit risk has not increased significantly since the initial recognition. Therefore, the management of the Company expects that no credit loss of accounts receivable will be caused by default of transaction counterparties.

  • 2) The Group adopted the simplified method of IFRS 9, and recognized the expected credit loss during the existence in the accounts receivable allowance loss. The expected credit loss during the existence was calculated using the reserve matrix, with consideration of the customers’ past default record and historical experience of collection, increase in delayed payments beyond the average credit period, and at the same time with consideration of the current financial status of customers, and observable national or regional industrial economic situation changes related to the arrears of receivables and future prospects such as outlook considerations. As the Group’s historical experience of credit losses indicates that there would be no significant differences in the loss patterns of different customer bases, the preparation matrix did not further distinguish the customer bases, only the accounts receivable days past due and actual conditions would determine the expected credit loss rate. The Group did not hold any collateral for these accounts receivable.

If there was evidence indicating that the counterparty was facing serious financial difficulties and the Group could not reasonably anticipate the recoverable amount, the Group would recognize 100% allowance loss or directly write off the related accounts receivable, but would, meanwhile, continue to recourse the activities due to the amount recovered and recognized in profit or loss.

  • 5) The Group began to let out its property in Kuo Chang Building, Songshan District, Taipei City on October 1, 2021 for rental incomes. The carrying amount of the relevant land at NT$132,247 thousand and the carrying amount of the buildings & constructions at NT$24,978 thousand were transferred into investment property. Please refer to Note 6 (14).

  • 6) For the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, while some equipment capacity was not fully utilized, the Group expected that the future cash inflow of such equipment would decrease, and, in turn, estimated that recoverable amount was both NT$0 less than the carrying amount so that it would recognize the impairment loss of other equipment amounting to NT$2,500 thousand and NT$500 thousand, respectively. Such impairment loss was already included in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income under other gains and losses. The Group used the value in use to determine the recoverable amount of such equipment. The discount rate adopted for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 were 12.37% and 3.09%, respectively. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Group recognized that the accumulated impairment amounts for property, plant and equipment were NT$52,196 thousand and NT$52,861 thousand, respectively.

  • 7) For information regarding the collateral provided with property, plant and equipment, please see Note 8(1) for more details.

  • 3) Major lease events and clauses

  • A. The Group leased the land in the People’s Republic of China for use as a production plants and office spaces for land use right in 50 years. The entire rents should be paid up in a lump-sum at the time of execution of this Lease Agreement. The Group was not entitled to procure the land upon expiry of the duration of land use right. The Group was entitled to the act of disposition such as land use right, income right, transfer and lease within the land use limit, and the Group is responsible to pay a variety of taxes as required.

In addition, the subject assets leased by the Group include buildings & constructions, machinery equipment and transportation facilities, and the like. At the end of the lease term, the Group held no preferential acquisition rights for the leased target assets, and some leases were attached to lease term renewal right after expiration. The lease agreement was negotiated individually and contained various terms and conditions. Some lease agreements stipulate that the lease payment may be adjusted according to the consumer price index. Assets other than leases should not be used as loan collateral, and it was agreed that unless with the consent of the lessor, the Group should not sublet or transfer the Subject Premises either in whole or in part. Except these facts, the lease agreement was free of any other restrictions.

  • B. Option to extend the lease

The part of the Subject Premises covered within the Group's lease agreement includes the extension option entitled to the Group. Under the general practice for the lease agreement, the Group was bestowed with the maximum possible operating flexibility and effective use of assets. While the Group resolved to enter into the lease term, the Group already took into account all the facts and circumstances that will result in the economic incentives generated from the exercise of extension option. The lease term will be reassessed when a major event occurs regarding the assessment

56

whether to exercise the extension right or not to excise the termination option.

  • C. Impact of variable lease payments on lease liabilities

In the Group's lease agreement, the variable lease payment terms are subject to storage/usage link. The variable payment depends on the actual use of the underlying assets. The variable payment terms are used for many reasons, mainly for profit control and operating flexibility to minimize fixed costs. The changes in storage/usage of lease payments are recognized as expenses during the period that triggers these payment terms.

4) Sublet:

The Group sub-leases the right to use part of the leased spaces under a short-term operating lease. The rent has been collected in accordance with the lease agreements.

Therefore, for the year ended December 31, 2020, NT$15,155 thousand was recognized for impairment loss of goodwill. The recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit related to the goodwill was determined on the basis of the value in use and duly calculated based on the pre-tax cash flow forecast of the approved financial budget of the Group and the discount rate used to calculate the value in use was 3.09%. Other key assumptions include estimated operating income and gross profit. These assumptions are conducted based on the past operating conditions of the cash-generating units and the management's expectations of the market.

  • E. Composition of the plan assets

The Group did not allocate related assets, the effected payment based on actual occurrence.

  • F. The present value of other long-term employee benefits obligations of the Group was actuarially counted by a qualified actuary. The main assumptions of the actuarial evaluation on the measurement date are as follows:
follows:
Items
Discount rate
Future salary growth rate
2021
0.50%0.625%
1.75%2.00%
2020
0.375%0.50%
1.75%2.00%

The assumption of future mortality rate is estimated based on the sixth life experience table of life insurance industry in Taiwan.

  • G. Because changes in the main actuarial assumption used, the present value of other long-term employee benefits obligations is affected. The analysis was as follows:

  • ① Interest rate risks

The decline in the interest rate of government bonds would increase the present value of other long-term employee benefits obligations, but the returns on debt investment of the plan assets would also increase accordingly. The both two would have a partial offset effect on other long-term employee benefits liabilities.

  • ② Salary related risks

The calculation of the present value of other long-term employee

67

benefits obligations refers to the future salary of the plan members. Therefore, the increase in the salary of plan members would increase the present value of other long-term employee benefits obligations.

  • H. In the event that the significant actuarial assumptions were subject to a combination of possible changes, and if other assumptions remained unchanged, the amount of increase (decrease) in present value of other long-term employee benefits obligations would be as follows:

Practically, since actuarial assumptions might relate to each other, it would be unlikely to have a single assumption in change. The aforementioned sensitivity analysis, therefore, might not reflect the actual change in the present value of other long-term employee benefits obligations. In addition, in the aforementioned sensitivity analysis, the present value of other longterm employee benefits obligations at the end date of the reporting period would be based on the actuarial calculation of the projected unit credit method and the defined benefit liabilities included in the balance sheet would be measured on the same basis. The method assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis in the current year was exactly same as that used in the prior one.

  • 1) Defined benefit plans

  • A. In accordance with the “Labor Standards Act”, the Company and the domestic subsidiaries in the Group have established retirement methods to define benefits. Under the “Labor Pension Act” applicable on July 1, 2005, the service seniority accumulated by employees prior to enforcement of the “Labor Pension Act” and subsequently accumulated by employees who chose subject to “Labor Standards Act” after enforcement of the “Labor Pension Act” as entitled to retirement would be taken to count pension which would be calculated number of years in the service seniority accumulated and the salary amounts averaged in the six (6) months prior to retirement. Each year of service seniority accumulated in full within fifteen (15) years (inclusive) would be entitled to two base units and each year the period of service seniority accumulated beyond fifteen (15) years would be entitled to one base unit. The cumulative base units shall not exceed the maximum limit of 45 base units. The Company and its domestic subsidiaries attributed retirement funds on a monthly basis to the specified ratio of total salary, and deposited the funds in the bank account designated for pension fund opened with the Bank of Taiwan under the name of the Labor Retirement Reserve Supervision Committee. Besides, in response to the retirement needs of senior managers, the Company set up the “Manager’s Retirement Fund Management Committee” in September 2004 and attributed on a monthly basis for a certain ratio (currently about 40%) of the total salary of managers into the management of the Manager’s Retirement Fund Management Committee and deposited in a special account of a financial institution opened in the name of the Manager’s Retirement Reserve Fund. The Company and its domestic subsidiaries estimate the balance of the retirement fund mentioned in the preceding item before the end of each year. In the event that the balance is found not enough to pay off the pension amount calculated according to the foregoing for the employees who meet the retirement requirements in the next year, the Company would make up the difference in a lump-sum before the end of March of the following year.

H. The defined benefit retirement plan assets of the Company and the domestic subsidiaries were commissioned into business management through Bank of Taiwan according to the proportion of the items of commissioned management as specified under the annual investment utilization plans of the funds and within the specified amounts within the items as per Article 6 of Regulations for Revenues, Expenditures, Safeguard and Utilization of the Labor Retirement Fund (i.e., to be deposited into financial institutions in Taiwan and abroad, to be invested in the TWSE/TPEx listed companies or private placement equity securities and to be invested into securitized commodities of real property in Taiwan and abroad). The relevant utilization was under supervision by the Labor Pension Fund Supervisory Committee. In the utilization of the Fund, the minimum gain distributed amidst final account settlement in every fiscal year should not be lower than the income calculated by the local banks’ two-year fixed term deposit interest rate. The shortfall, if any, should be supplemented by the national treasury after approval by the competent authority. Where the Company was not entitled to participate in the operation and management of the fund, the Company could not classify the plan assets at the fair value disclosed under IAS 19 Paragraph 142. For more details of the fair value of the total assets of the Fund as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, please refer to reports of the Labor Pension Fund Utilization promulgated by the government in the respective years.

  • I. The present value of defined benefit obligations of the Company and the domestic subsidiaries was counted actuarially by a qualified actuary. The main assumptions of the actuarial evaluation on the measurement date are

71

listed below:
Items
Discount rate
Future salary growth rate
Average period of existence of
defined benefit obligations
2021
0.50%0.625%
1.50%2.00%
4.0 years - 11.6 years
2020
0.375%0.50%
1.50%2.00%
4.7 years - 12.4 years

The assumption of future mortality rate is estimated based on the sixth life experience table of life insurance industry in Taiwan.

  • J. The Company and the domestic subsidiaries have been exposed to the following risks due to the pension system under the Labor Standards Act:

  • Interest rate risks

The decline in the interest rate of government bonds would increase the present value of defined benefit obligations, but the returns on debt investment of the plan assets would also increase accordingly. The both two have a partial offset effect on the net defined benefit liabilities.

  • Salary related risks

The calculation of the present value of defined benefit obligation refers to the future salary of the plan members. Therefore, the increase in the salary of plan members would increase the present value of defined benefit obligations.

  • K. In the event that the significant actuarial assumptions were subject to a combination of possible changes, and if other assumptions remained unchanged, the amount of increase (decrease) in present value of the defined benefit obligations would be as follows:
Items Discount rate Discount rate Future salary growth rate Future salary growth rate

The aforementioned sensitivity analysis, therefore, might not reflect the actual change in the present value of defined benefit obligations. In addition, in the aforementioned sensitivity analysis, the present value of defined benefit obligations at the end date of the reporting period would be based on the actuarial calculation of the projected unit credit method and the defined benefit liabilities included in the balance sheet would be measured on the same basis. The method assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis in the current year was exactly same as that used in the prior one.

  • 9) Where the distribution of earnings for Year 2022 to be resolved in the shareholders’ meeting remains uncertain, the undistributed earnings added with the very outcome of the potential income tax in Year 2021 could not be determined in a reliable way.

(45) Earnings per share (EPS)

The basic earnings per share (EPS) of the Company was calculated by dividing the current year's net profit (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding; the shares added by undistributed earnings or capital reserve conversion to rights issues, then with retroactive adjustment calculation.

If the Company was entitled to the option to distribute compensation to employee in stocks or cash, then upon calculating the diluted earnings per share (EPS), it was assumed that the compensation to employee would be distributed by stocks and would be included in the weighted average number of outstanding shares when the potential common stocks were entitled to dilution effect so as to calculate the diluted earnings per share (EPS). When calculating the diluted earnings per share (EPS) before the resolution of distributing compensation to employee in the following year, the Company also continues to take into account the dilution effect of these potential common shares.

Note: The foreign currency related non-monetary assets measured at the historical exchange rate on the transaction date have not been disclosed because they have no significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Here at the Group, the sensitivity analysis on the exchange rate risks mainly focuses on the major foreign currency monetary items and non-monetary items at the end of the financial statement period, and the related foreign currency appreciation or depreciation impact on the Group's profit and loss as well as equity. All other risk factors being equal, any 1% movement in exchange rates of the Group’s foreign currency position would result in NT$17,453 thousand and NT$15,938 thousand change in profit and loss and NT$110,459 thousand and NT$89,510 thousand change in equity on December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The sensitivity ratio with which the

97

management reports exchange rate risks is based on 1%. It also represents the management’s assessment on the possible and reasonable range of changes in exchange rates.

In addition, the net gain (loss) with exchange in foreign currency (including realization and un realization) under the Group's monetary items for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 were NT$27,282 thousand and (NT$32,279) thousand, respectively. Due to multiple currency types of foreign currency transactions, practically, it was impossible to clearly distinguish the types of exchange gains and losses and their exposure separately according to each foreign currency, so they are expressed in a summary amount.

 Interest rate risks

The interest rate related risks refers to the risks of financial instruments' fair value or future cash flow fluctuations due to changes in market interest rates. The Group's interest rate risks mainly come from floating rate in loans where some of the risks would be held with floating rates through cash & cash equivalents offset. Where the Group regularly assesses the trend of interest rate changes and responds to it, it is not expected that there would be a significant risk of market interest rate changes. All other risk factors being equal, a 10% basis point movement in yields of the position exposed to interest rate risks would result in NT$2,641 thousand and NT$305 thousand change in the Group’s profit and loss on December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

 Price risks

The investment held by the Group as shown through the balance sheet has been primarily classified as financial assets at fair value through profit and loss and financial assets at fair values through other comprehensive income. The Group has been, therefore, exposed to pricing risks of financial instruments. In an effort to manage the pricing risks of financial instruments, the Group virtually diversifies its investment portfolio in a manner that was based on the limits set by the Group. The Group has invested in financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income with the price of financial instruments such as profit or loss affected by the uncertainty of the future value of the investment target. All other risk factors being equal, a 1% movement in spot prices of the position in financial instruments would result in NT$1,805 thousand and NT$5,084 thousand change in the Group’s profit and loss and NT$52,097 thousand and NT$41,911 thousand change in the Group’s equity on December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

B. Credit risks

Credit risks refer to such risks in financial losses incurred in an event where a customer of the Group or financial instrument transaction counterparty fails to perform the contract. The credit risks of the Group primarily resulted from operating activities (primarily as accounts & notes receivable) and financial activities (primarily as bank deposits and a variety of financial instruments). The credit risks related to business

98

operation and financial credit risks have been managed respectively.

  • Credit risks related to business operation

The business department faithfully complies with the Group's customer credit risk policies, procedures and controls to manage customer credit risk. The credit risks assessment of all customers is a comprehensive consideration such as the financial status of the customers, the rating of the credit rating agency, past historical transaction experience, the current economic environment and the internal rating criteria of the Group. In addition, the Group also uses certain credit enhancement instruments (such as payments collected in advance, etc.) at appropriate times to minimize the credit risk of specific customers.

 Financial credit risks

Here at the Group, the Finance Department manages credit risks of bank deposits and other financial instruments in accordance with company policies. Since the Group’s transaction objects have been determined by internal control procedures as banks with good credit and an investment grade and above in the forms of institutions, company organizations. Where all such entities prove free of major performance doubts, there have been no major credit risks upon the Group.

 Information of credit-related risks in accounts receivable

The Group adopted the assumption provided under IFRS 9. As the payment was more than 30 days overdue from schedule in the provision of contracts, the financial asset was deemed to have significantly increased in credit risks from the initial recognition. In an event where a contract payment was more than 365 days overdue or where the loanee would be highly unlikely to fulfill the credit obligations to pay amount in full to the Group, the Group deemed that financial asset in default.

In an effort to minimize credit risks, the management of the Group would assign the special team to assume the responsibility to determine the facility of credit extension, approve of credit extension or other supervisory procedures with actions to be taken as appropriate to assure successful retrieval of receivables. Besides, on the balance sheet date, the Group would, on one-by-one basis, recheck the reclaimable amounts of receivables to assure that appropriate allowance would have been provided against the potential loss. For facts of changes regarding aging analysis of accounts receivables and allowance loss, please see Note 6(3) & (4).

 Exposure to credit risks

The Group has been well known for the sound quality of credit standing with financial institutions and has tried to profoundly diversify potential credit risks with multiple financial institutions. As natural result, the Group has seen very low potential default. Besides, the Group has been in transactions with only third parties of very fine credit standing and would grant credit lines toward customers exactly based on the credit facility procedures.

99

Meanwhile, with continued efforts to look into customers’ credit standing and with evaluation of the possibility to retrieve accounts receivable on a regular basis, the Group has amortized adequate allowance against loss. The management has, therefore, firmly believed that the Group’s receivables would not have been significantly concentrated in the credit risks. As of the balance sheet date in terms of cash & cash equivalents, contract assets - current, receivables and other financial assets - current, the maximum possible exposure to credit risks would be exactly the carrying amounts of such financial assets.

C. Liquidity risk

The liquidity risk refers to the risk that the position could not be settled as expected. The Group mainly used financial institutions to use loans, and cash & cash equivalents and other instruments to adjust funds, and achieve the goal of flexible use of funds and stable funds. The share capital and working capital of the Group were sufficient to meet all contract obligations, so there would be no liquidity risk due to the inability to raise funds to fulfill contract obligations.

The table below summarizes the Group's non-derivative financial liabilities, grouped by the relevant maturity date based on the earliest possible date of repayment and compiled with its undiscounted cash flow. The Group did not expect that the time when the cash flow of the analysis of the due date occurred would be significantly earlier or the actual amount would be significantly different. The interest cash flow paid at floating interest rates, the undiscounted interest amount derived based on the yield curve on the balance sheet date which was the amount of floating interest rate instrument of a non-derivative financial liability. The amount of the floating interest rate instrument would change according to the different interest rate and the estimated interest rate on the balance sheet date. For more details regarding the analysis of the due date of lease liabilities, please see Note 6(13)-2-(2).

  • (4) Information of fair value

  • 1) Fair value hierarchy

The evaluation technique used to measure the fair value of financial and nonfinancial instruments divided the fair value into the first to the third level based on the observable degrees. Each fair value hierarchy was defined as follows:

  • Level 1: Referring to the public quotation (unadjusted) from the same asset or liability in the active market.

  • Level 2: In addition to the public quotation of Level 1, the fair value is derived using observable input parameters that belong to the asset or liability directly (i.e., the price) or indirectly (i.e., derived from price).

  • Level 3: Referring to the input parameters (non-observable parameters) of the valuation techniques for assets or liabilities that are not based on observable market data to derive fair value.

  • 2) Financial instruments not measured at fair values

The Group's financial instruments not measured at fair values (including cash & cash equivalents, contract assets - current, notes receivable, accounts receivable (including related parties), other receivables (including related parties), other financial assets - current, short-term loans, notes payable, accounts payable, other payables (including related parties) and the like) refer to rational approximate values in the carrying amounts at fair values. Where refundable deposits and guarantee deposits received would not be subject to significant impact in the cash flow discounting, their carrying amounts should be the very rational grounds to estimate the fair values. The long-term loan contracts bore an agreed floating interest rate. Since the floating interest rates were mostly close to the market interest rates, the discounted value of its expected cash flow is used

101

to estimate its fair value to approximate its book value.

  • 3) As of December 31, 2021 and 2020 for financial and non-financial instruments at fair values were classified by the Group based on the attributes, characteristics, risks and fair value hierarchy of assets and liabilities, with the relevant information as follows:

  • 4) Evaluation technology and assumptions adopted to measure fair values:

The fair values of the financial and non-financial instruments refer to the amounts of current transaction of the said instruments with the interested counterparties (instead of mandatory means or liquidation). Here at the Group, the methods and assumptions used for the financial and non-financial instruments to measure the fair values are as follows:

  • A. In case of financial instruments with standard terms and conditions and traded in the active market, the fair value was determined by referring to the market quotation. The listed stocks were counted based on the closing price as fair value, the unlisted emerging stocks were counted based on the transaction price as the fair value. Mutual fund beneficiary certificates were counted based on net worth as fair values.

  • B. For financial instruments with higher complexity, the Group measured the fair value based on the evaluation model developed using evaluation method and technology which were widely used between the fellow traders. Some of the parameters used in such evaluation models were not market observable information. The Group must make appropriate estimates based on assumptions. The Company's unlisted stocks held by the Group (excluding the emerging stocks that were traded in the active market) and the limited partnership were counted based on the market approach or the

102

asset approach to estimate the fair value. The judgment was conducted with reference to the same type company evaluation, third-party quotation, the Company's net worth and business performance. In addition, the significant non-observable input value was mainly current discount. For more details regarding the impact of non-market observable parameters on the evaluation of financial instruments please see Note 12(4)-10.

  • C. The output of the evaluation model was the approximate value of the estimate and the evaluation technology might not reflect all relevant factors of the Group’s holding of financial instruments and non-financial instruments. Therefore, the estimated value of the evaluation model would be appropriately adjusted according to additional parameters, e.g., the model risk or liquidity risk. According to the Group’s fair value evaluation model management policy and related control procedures, the management believes that the fair value of financial instruments and nonfinancial instruments as shown in the balance sheet should be expressed in a fair way. The evaluation adjustment is appropriate and essential. The price information and parameters used in the evaluation process have been carefully evaluated and appropriately adjusted according to the current market conditions.

  • D. The Group took credit risks evaluation adjustment into consideration of calculation in fair value of the financial instruments and non-financial instruments to respectively reflect the credit risk of the transaction counterparties and credit quality of the Group.

  • 5) Transfer of fair values between Level 1 and Level 2 for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020: Nil

  • 6) Change in the financial instruments of Level 3 for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020.

  • 7) Facts of outward transfer from Level 3 and inward transfer into Level 3 for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020.

During the period starting for the year ended December 31, 2020, the Group's original holding of emerging stocks not listed onto TWSE/TPEx listed companies was terminated from transaction in emerging stocks on August 20, 2020. This resulted in a lack of sufficient observable market information. Accordingly, on the date such very fact took place, the Group transferred the fair value from Level 1 to Level 3.

  • 8) The Group's evaluation process for the fair value classified in Level 3 was the independent fair value verification of financial instruments conducted by the

103

Company's Financial Department in collaboration with an outsourced professional evaluation agency. The independent sources of data were used to bring the evaluation results closer to the market status as independent, reliable, and other resources consistent with and represent the executable price, and regularly update the required input values and data, and any other necessary fair value adjustments to ensure that the evaluation results would be rational.

  • 9) The quantitative information about the significant unobservable input value of the evaluation model used in Level 3 fair value measurement items and the sensitivity analysis of the significant unobservable input value change are explained as follows:

10) The Group selected the evaluation model and evaluation parameters used after prudential evaluation so it was reasonable to measure the fair value but the use of different evaluation models or evaluation parameters might lead to different evaluation results. For financial assets classified as Level 3 and financial liabilities, if the evaluation parameter changes by 1% basis point, the impact on the current profit/loss or other comprehensive income would be as follows:

  1. Information of the operating segments

  2. (1) The “operating segments” as set forth herein were business composing units which would comport with the following characteristics:

    • 1) The operating activities to obtain revenues and incur expenses.

    • 2) Where the operating results would be regularly rechecked by the enterprise’s decision-makers to formulate decisions to allocate resources of the segments and to evaluate the performance of the segments

    • 3) With individual and separable financial information.

  3. (2) Based on the view of the operating decision-makers, the Group would recheck the link up with various managerial departments and the products and labor services. The operating units were classified into three reportable operating segments:

    • 1) Petrochemistry Department: That department was responsible for the production, processing and trading of related products and their products using styrene as raw materials.

    • 2) Television Media Department: That department was responsible for TV program production, import and export agency distribution of cable TV programs and various advertising agencies and the planning and production thereof.

    • 3) Packaging Materials Department: That department was responsible for manufacturing, processing and trading of various packaging materials such as trademark paper and release paper.

Other operating activities not reported by the Group and related information of the operating segments are consolidated and disclosed under "Other Departments".

  • (3) The departments required to be reported to the Group were strategic business units to provide different products and labor services. Each strategic business unit would call for different technologies and marketing strategies, so they must be managed separately.

  • (4) Here in the Group, the management individually monitored the operating results of the business units to formulate resource distribution and performance evaluation decisions. The performance of the operating segment was measured based on operating profit or loss, and the amount so measured was provided to the chief operating decision maker to allocate resources to the department and evaluate its performance and, in turn, adopted the consistent method of operating profit or loss in the consolidated financial report. The operating cost of the headquarters in the consolidated financial report, income tax expense (gain) and non-recurring profit or loss (non-operating income and expenditure) were, nevertheless, based on the management of the parent company, and was not distributed to the reportable department. The reported amount and the report used by the operating decision maker proved consistent. The transfer price between the operating segments was based on the regular transactions as similar to external

117

third parties. The operating segment’s accounting policies were roughly the same as those shown in Note 4 to Consolidated Financial Statements.
