Annex of the annual report of nine Months of 2010

General principles of methodology of accounting and evaluation

Foundation of preparation of financial report

• Annual report of the Company prepared according to the Laws of the Republic of Latvia "On Accounting", "On annual reports of companies", Latvian accounting standards: No. 1 "General principles of preparation of financial reports", No. 2 "Cash flow report", No.3 "Events after date of balance", No. 4 "Changes of accounting policies, accounting assumptions and mistakes of previous periods", No.5 "Long-term agreements", No.6 "Revenues", No.7 "Fixed assets", No. 8 "Reserves, probable liabilities and assets", and the Statues of JSC VEF "On preparations of annual reports".
• "Profit and loss statement" prepared according to the method of turnover payments.
• "Cash flow statement" prepared using indirect methods of calculating cash flows from basic activities.
• Comparing to the previous reporting period applied accounting and evaluation methods had not been changed (reclassification does not have effect on comparative indicators because indicators of 2010 are classified by principles of 2009 are comparable).

Net turnover

Net turnover is total amount of all values of provided services during the reporting period without value added tax.

Fixed assets

Fixed assets are evaluated according to their initial value or reevaluated value less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation of fixed assets is calculated starting from first day of next month after beginning of their exploitation and ended from first day of next month after they are excluded from fixed assets. Depreciation of fixed assets is calculated using linear methodology. Depreciation rates depending on division are following:

• Buildings, edifices = 1%;
• Equipment and machinery = 20%;
• Other fixed assets or inventory = 25%/

Increased values taken in the process of reevaluation are showed in the position of equity "Reserve of reevaluation of long-term investments", but decreased values are written-off from incremental additions to values of the particular fixed asset accumulated in previous periods – excess is appropriated in profit and loss calculations of the according period.

Residual value of fixed assets of the Company is 3 848 725 LVL, land – 343 523 LVL. Total value of fixed assets – 4 192 248 LVL.

Debts of debtors

In the balance sheet debts of debtors are showed in net values from initial values less special reserves for doubtful and bad debts. Special reserves for doubtful and bad debts are made in occasions when the Management decides that collection of particular debts of debtors is doubtful.

Debts of debtors and creditors are evaluated at the end of the reporting period according to accounting information and statements about comparison of mutual payments with debtors and creditors.

Debts of debtors are evaluated taking into account principles of precaution showing in the balance sheet only real debtors.

Actual amounts of debts of debtors agree with bills and amounts registered in other primary accounting documents.

Income tax of company

Income tax of the company in the reporting period is calculated according to requirements of normative acts of Republic of Latvia.

Deferred tax is calculated using liabilities methods concerning all temporary discrepancies between values of assets and liabilities shown in financial reports and their values in taxation calculations. In calculations of deferred tax there is used rate of tax that is expected in periods when discrepancies would disappear. Temporary discrepancies take place mainly because of use of different depreciation rates and losses from taxes that are transferable to next taxation periods. In occasions when total amount of deferred tax should be showed in active side of the balance sheet, it is included in the financial report only if it is expected that there would be income available for taxation from which it would be possible to except temporary discrepancies that constitute assets of deferred tax.

Reserves

Reserves for vacations of employees are created as an estimation taking into account unused vacations during the reporting period.

Reevaluation of foreign currencies to lats

Accounting in the company is made in lats. All transactions in foreign currencies are reevaluated in lats according to the official exchange rate of the Bank of Latvia in the particular day of transaction. Assets and liabilities that evaluated in foreign currencies are recalculated in lats according to the exchange rate of the Bank of Latvia at the last day of the reporting period. Profit or loss accumulated due to changes in exchange rates of foreign currencies are shown in the profit and loss statement,

Cash and its equivalents

In the cash flow statement cash and its equivalents consist of cash in the cashier's office and remains of current bank accounts.

• LGS 2 "On cash flow statement"
• LGS 3 "On events after date of balance"
• LGS 4 "On changes of accounting policy, changes in accounting estimations and mistakes from previous periods"
• LGS 5 "On long-term agreements"
• LGS 6 "On revenues"
• LGS 7 "On assets"
• LGS 8 "On reserves, probable liabilities and probable assets"

Positions of annual reports are evaluated according the following accounting principles:

• Same evaluation methods are used as in last periods;
• Evaluation is made with accordant precaution;
• Only revenues taken during the reporting period are included in the report;
• All expected risks and losses that occurred in the reporting year or previous years are taken into account even if they are occurred during period of time between date of balance and date of preparation of annual report;
• Calculated and accounted all decreases in values and depreciations despite whether the reporting year is concluded with profit or loss;
• All revenues and costs are taken into account independently of dates of payments, reception of bills. Payouts are accordant with revenues at the end of the reporting period.
• Components of assets and liabilities are evaluated separately;
• Starting balance of the reporting year is equal to the closing balance of previous reporting year;

• All positions that substantially affect evaluation or decision making of users of the report are shown but all insignificant positions are consolidated and their detailed breakdown are shown in annexes;
• Business transactions in the annual report are shown taking into account their economical essence and content but not their legal form.
