Significant changes in the main assets 2.1. Significant changes in the main assets 2.2. Main assets overseas Applicable √ N/A 3. Analysis of core competitiveness A. Geographical advantage Luzhou City, where the Company is located, sits in the transitional area between the southern rim of the Sichuan Basin and the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, featuring a warmer and more humid sub-tropical climate compared to other areas at the same latitude, with a temperature above 0℃ throughout the year. The unique climate and soil are agreeable to grow grains for liquor brewing. The glutinous red sorghum and soft wheat grown in this area are the primary raw materials for the liquor of the Company. The cellars in which the Company brews its liquor are made of the local loessal clay characterized by strong viscosity, rich minerals and excellent moisture retention. In addition, the abundant and quality water in the region creates a unique geographical advantage for the production of the Company’s liquor. B. Advantage of cellars and brewing technique Aged cellars are the most essential condition for a strong aromatic liquor maker to produce good quality liquor. The Cellars of National Treasure 1573, founded in 1573, was granted by the State Council as the first Cultural Relic of National Importance in the industry under the Protection of the State in December 1996. 1,619 cellars of Luzhou Laojiao which have been continuously used for over 100 years, together with its 16 ancient brewing workshops and three natural cellar holes, were all selected as the fourth batch of Cultural Relics of National Importance under the Protection of the State in 2013. They are unique resources that cannot be replicated. In both 2006 and 2012, Luzhou Laojiao Daqu Cellars were twice selected into the preliminary list of China for World Heritage. In November 2018, Luzhou Laojiao Cellars and Brewing Workshops were selected into China’s Industrial Heritage List. The time-honored Traditional Brewing Technique of Luzhou Laojiao is a 23-generation inheritance and a classic brewing technique for strong aromatic liquor. This technique was selected as the first batch of National Intangible Cultural Heritage in May 2006. The Cellars of National Treasure 1573 and the Traditional Brewing Technique of Luzhou Laojiao together provide the most essential basis and assurance for the quality of the product series of National Cellar 1573 and Luzhou Laojiao. C. Brand advantage Brand is a key business resource for liquor producers. The Company’s reputation is greatly built on its superiority in brand. National Cellar 1573, which is of a connoisseurship level, is a world-famous high-end brand. Luzhou Laojiao Tequ, a classic brand for strong aromatic liquor, was selected in 1952 by the first national tasting competition judges as one of the four most famous liquor brands in China. It is the only strong aromatic liquor brand that won the title of “National Famous Liquor” for five consecutive times, as well as the pioneer with regard to the “Tequ” variety of liquor. In recent years, the Company has successfully put in place a brand system of “dual brands, three product series, and major single products” with great clarity and focus. The programs carried out to promote the brand of National Cellar 1573 and revive the brand of Luzhou Laojiao have produced remarkable results, with significant improvement in brand influence. The Company’s liquor is increasingly known by consumers as a national brand of strong aromatic liquor and of authentic flavor. D. Quality and R&D advantage The Company is committed to producing high-quality liquor, advocating a healthy lifestyle and “making the quality visible”. The first “Organic Sorghum Planting Base” was established and the six-factor management system (including organic, quality, safety, environment, measurement and energy) was built and improved. The research platforms are established, including National Engineering Research Center of Solid-State Brewing, National Liquor Test Center, National Postdoctoral Workstation, etc, which all support the innovation and upgrading of products with their strong technical force. In recent years, the Company has put in a lot of efforts in researching Tequ production, brewing informatization & automation. Relying on the technological innovation platforms such as the National Industrial Design Center, and continuously deepening the cooperation with universities and scientific research institutes including the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Jiangnan University, the Company has undertaken dozens of national- or provincial-level projects and has been granted hundreds of invention or utility model patents. And remarkable results have been achieved with respect to improvement of the quality of base liquor, as well as production efficiency improvement. E. Talent advantage The Company has built up the richness in its talent pool throughout the years. It has 1 inheritor of national intangible cultural heritage, 2 masters of Chinese brewing, 2 masters of Chinese liquor, 3 masters of Chinese liquor technique, 2 Chinese liquor connoisseurs, 5 senior professor engineers, 7 experts who receive special allowances from the State Council, 3 national technicians, 3 academic and technologic leaders of Sichuan province, 1 excellent expert with special contribution of Sichuan province, 1craftsman of Sichuan province, 1 technological elite of Sichuan province, as well as hundreds of highly skilled personnel including national liquor judges, senior brewing technicians and brewing technicians. The comprehensive and professional personnel system assures the sound development of the Company. Section IV Performance Discussion and Analysis 1. Overview 2020 marks the final year of the Company's "13th Five-Year Plan". This year, facing the sudden COVID-19 pandemic, the Company thoroughly implemented the development theme of "Firm Determination, Strong Confidence, Strict Management, Targeted Audit, Talent Development and All-out Efforts", made concerted efforts, rose to challenges, and fought courageously to promote the Company to continue the healthy and rapid development. The Company won the victory in both fighting against the pandemic and resuming work and production.

Outlook for the future development of the Company 9.1 Industry landscape and trends According to the data of National Bureau of Statistics, total production volume of brewed liquor by liquor companies above the scale designated by the Bureau was 7.4073 million kl during January-December 2020, down by 2.46% year-on-year; total sales revenue reached CNY 583.639 billion, up by 4.6% year-on-year; total profit of CNY 158.541 billion was realized, up by 13.35% year-on-year. Since 2020, due to the impact of globalization, anti-globalization and the COVID-19 pandemic, the world economy has fluctuated sharply. Meanwhile, China's labor force is at a turning point. The dividends of the peak birth period from 1960s to 1970s will gradually disappear as the labor withdraws from the market. The liquor industry is moving forward amid the collision and squeeze of the economic cycle, population cycle, industry cycle, and the impact of the pandemic. On the other hand, with the starting momentum of the "domestic economic circulation" and "dual circulation", China's economy will further release its market potential. The formation of urban clusters will accelerate. The consumption demands of emerging consumer groups will continue to upgrade. These will bring development room and opportunities for China's liquor industry. In this context, the liquor industry will enter a new round of development cycle. In the future, the total volume will shrink. Consumption will be iteratively upgraded. The market share will be concentrated in the leaders’ hands. The interference of uncertainty factors from time to time may become the norm in the industry. The industry competition will be the competition between systems. The shortcomings in corporate supply chain and ecological chain must be made up for. The era of joint operations of strategic product line mix and market has arrived. 9.2 Company’s development strategy 9.2.1. Development opportunities in the future A. After the test of the pandemic, China's economy has fully demonstrated the vigorous vitality, strong resilience and huge potential. With a complete science and technology industrial system, efficient social management system and manufacturing and construction capabilities, China will continue to maintain a momentum of high-speed and high-quality development in the future, and achieve a historic leap from low- and middle-income country to high-income country. As an outstanding representative of the national industries, liquor will better enjoy the spillover dividends brought about by China's economic and cultural rise, while benefit from the huge potential of China's consumer market in the future. B. As the economic driving force shifts from outside to inside, the external environment for the development of national industries is undergoing profound changes. The deep inland location provides a safer and more stable ecological environment and development environment. The development of information technology and transportation has completely reversed the disadvantages of the inland location; the brewing techniques that have been passed down for thousands of years provide valuable dominance such as full independent intellectual property rights, independent pricing power, independent supply chain, and independent raw materials; the relatively higher domestic market share provides a strong market moat amid the impact of the pandemic and the economic downturn cycle of western countries; the relatively dispersed industry concentration provides leading enterprises with vast space to become bigger and stronger. The liquor industry will expand its advantages in the new cycle of the restructuring of international industrial and trade relations and the adjustment of national economic policies, creating opportunities for Luzhou Laojiao to establish and expand its advantages. C. Since the "13th Five-Year Plan", the Company has firmly implemented the "12345" development strategy and made a series of major breakthroughs: The sales results repeatedly hit record highs. The value of the Company's famous liquor brands strongly returned. Leaping improvement was made in solid-state brewing capacity. Sufficient and competent talent team was in place. Key projects were vigorously advanced. All of these have laid a solid foundation for the Company's sound development in the future. 9.2.2. Possible challenges and risks in the future A. Pandemic risk: The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, which started at the end of 2019, has hugely impacted the global economy and changed people's consumption patterns and behavior habits, thus causing a greater impact on the consumption environment and product shelf sales of the liquor industry. Since the second half of 2020, the spread of the pandemic has never stopped. Due to the emergence of various virus variants, the domestic prevention and control of pandemic cannot be slackened, bringing certain uncertainty to the liquor industry. B. Economic risk: In recent years, there are frequent frictions in international trade. The macroeconomic environment remains difficult. If the total economic demand declines, it will affect the residents' per capita disposable income and their willingness to consume, which will have a negative impact on the liquor industry. C. Policy risk: As the pandemic gradually eases, the world economy returns to normal, and mainstream countries gradually withdraw the loose monetary policies, which may affect China's relevant policies. In the short term, the liquor consumption market will be affected. 9.2.3. The Company's "14th five-year" development strategy Focusing on the development concepts of "leveraging advantages, making up for shortcomings, improving quality, enhancing strength, and seeking revitalization", the Company, after prudent research, has formulated the "14th five-year" strategic plan: "136" strategy. Adhere to one development objective: Adhere to the objective of returning to China's liquor industry "top three". Adhere to three major development principles: The first is to adhere to brand guidance and vigorously enhance the value of famous liquor brands in China. The second is to adhere to the foundation of quality and vigorously build the core production area of famous liquor brands in the world. The third is to adhere to culture casting and vigorously build a pilgrimage site for Chinese liquor culture. Construct a "six-in-one" Luzhou Laojiao The first is to build the brand of Luzhou Laojiao. Focusing on the development arrangement of "dual brands, three product series, and major single products", the Company shall continue to enhance the value of the high-end brand National Cellar 1573, promote the value return of famous Luzhou Laojiao brands, and lead the direction of appealing to more younger consumers and becoming more international and stylish with brand innovation. The second is to build the quality of Luzhou Laojiao. The Company shall build a reputation of quality, adhere to brewing with organic raw grains, create new taste and flavors, increase trust in quality, and satisfy taste preferences. It shall establish a model for quality, expand the scope of quality supervision, and improve the innovative quality traceability system covering the entire product life cycle. It shall strengthen standard guidance, consolidate the image of standard liquor for Chinese liquor appreciation, and become a setter of Chinese liquor quality standards. The third is to build the culture of Luzhou Laojiao.

Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with CSAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. As part of an audit in accordance with CSAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also: (1) Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. (2) Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control. (3) Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors. (4) Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern. (5) Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. (6) Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Company to express an opinion on the financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion. We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit. We also provide the governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards. From the matters communicated with the governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication. 2.

The share of the book value of the merged party’s owner’s equity in the consolidated financial statements is taken as the initial investment cost of long-term equity investments in individual financial statements. The capital reserve (stock premium or capital premium) is adjusted according to the difference between the book value of net asset acquired through combination and the book value of consideration paid for the combination (or total par value of shares issued). If the capital reserve (stock premium or capital premium) is insufficient to offset, the retained earnings shall be adjusted. (2) Business combination not under common control Assets paid, liabilities incurred or assumed and the equity securities issued as consideration for combination shall be measured based on fair value on the acquisition date, the difference between fair value and its book value shall be included in current profit and loss. The Company shall recognize the difference of the combination costs in excess of the fair value of the net identifiable asset acquired from the acquiree through combination as goodwill. After the review, if the combination costs are still in short of the fair value of the net identifiable asset acquired from the acquiree through combination, include the difference in the current profit and loss. Fees, commissions, and other transaction expenses paid on issuance of equity securities as combination consideration in the business combination shall be included in the initial measurement amount of equity securities. 5.6 Preparation of consolidated financial statements (1) Consolidated Financial Statement Scope The scope of the Company’s consolidated financial statements is based on control, and all subsidiaries controlled are included in the consolidation scope of the consolidated financial statements.

When preparing consolidated financial statement, the Company considers the Group as an accounting entity, adopts unified accounting policies, and applies the requirements of ASBE related to recognition, measurement and presentation to reflect the Group’s financial position, operating results and cash flows. All the subsidiaries within the consolidation scope of consolidated financial statements shall adopt the same accounting policies and accounting periods as those of the Company. If the accounting policies or accounting periods of a subsidiary are different from those of the Company, the financial statements of the subsidiary, upon preparation of consolidated financial statements, shall be made necessary adjustment based on its own accounting policies and accounting periods of the Company. For subsidiaries acquired from the business combination not under common control, the financial statements shall be adjusted on the basis of the fair value of identifiable net assets on the date of purchase. For the subsidiary acquired from the business combination under common control, its assets and liabilities (including the goodwill formed by the acquisition of the subsidiary by the ultimate controlling party) shall be adjusted on the basis of the book value in the consolidated statements of the ultimate controlling party. The portion of a subsidiary’s equity, the current net profit and loss of subsidiaries, and the current comprehensive income attributable to non-controlling interests shall be separately presented as non-controlling interests in consolidated balance sheet within owners' equity, below the net profit line item and below the total comprehensive income line item in the consolidated income statement respectively. When the amount of current loss attributable to non-controlling shareholders of a subsidiary exceeds the balance of the non-controlling shareholders’ portion in the opening balance of owner's equity of the subsidiary, the excess shall be allocated against the non-controlling interests. Acquisition of subsidiaries or business During the reporting period, if the Company acquires subsidiaries from the business combination under common control, the opening balance in the consolidated balance sheet shall be adjusted. The income, expenses and profits of the newly acquired subsidiaries from the beginning to the end of the reporting period shall be included in the consolidated income statement. The cash flows of the newly acquired subsidiaries from the beginning to the end of the reporting period shall be included in the consolidated statement of cash flows. At the same time, the relevant items of the comparative information shall be adjusted as the combined entity existed since the control point of the ultimate controlling party. If the Company can control the investee from the business combination under common control due to additional investment or other reasons, the parties involved in the combine shall be deemed to adjust in the current state when the ultimate controlling party starts to control them. For the equity investment before obtaining control of the investee, the recognized relevant profit or loss and other comprehensive income and other changes in net assets between the later of acquisition date of previous equity and the date on which both the investor and the investee are under common control and the combination date shall respectively write-down the beginning retained earnings or current profits and losses during the period of comparative information. During the reporting period, if the Company acquires subsidiaries from the business combination not under common control, the opening balance in the consolidated balance sheet shall not be adjusted. The income, expenses and profits of the newly acquired subsidiaries from the acquisition date to the end of the reporting period shall be included in the consolidated income statement. The cash flows of the newly acquired subsidiaries from the acquisition date to the end of the reporting period shall be included in the consolidated statement of cash flows. When the Company becomes capable of exercising control over an investee not under common control due to additional investment or other reasons, the Company shall re-measure the previously held equity interests to its fair value on the acquisition date, and the difference shall be recognized as investment income. When the previously held equity investment is accounted for under equity method, any other comprehensive income previously recognized and other equity changes (excluding other comprehensive, net profit and loss and profit distribution ) in relation to the acquiree’s equity changes shall be transferred to profit and loss for the current period when acquisition took place, except for other comprehensive income resulting from changes in net liabilities or net assets due to re-measurement of defined benefit plan by investee. Disposal of subsidiaries and business General treatments During the reporting period, if the Company disposes subsidiaries, the income, expenses and profits of the newly disposed subsidiaries from the beginning to the disposal date shall be included in the consolidated income statement. The cash flows from the beginning to the disposal date shall be included in the consolidated statement of cash flows. In case of loss of control over the investee due to partial disposal of the equity investment or other reasons, the Company shall re-measure the remaining equity investment at its fair value at the date of loss of control. The amount of the consideration obtained from the disposal of the equity and the fair value of the remaining equity, minus the net asset shares calculated continuously from the acquisition date based on the previous shareholding proportion and the goodwill, the difference shall be included in the investment income of the period when the control is lost. Other comprehensive income related to the former subsidiary’s equity investment of or other changes in owners' equity excluding net profit and loss, other comprehensive income and profit distribution shall be transferred to investment income for the current period when control is lost. Other comprehensive income resulting from changes in net liabilities or net assets due to re-measurement of defined benefit plan by investee is excluded. Disposal of subsidiaries by step If the Company loses control of a subsidiary is through multiple transactions by steps, the terms, conditions and economic impact of the disposal transaction shall be considered. When one or more of the following conditions may indicate that multiple transactions should be treated as a package of transactions for accounting treatment: a.These arrangements were entered into at the same time or in contemplation of each other; b.These arrangements work together to achieve an overall commercial effect; c.The occurrence of one arrangement depends on the occurrence of at least one other arrangement; d.One arrangement alone is not economically justified, but it is economically justified when considered together with other arrangements If the transactions of the disposal of the equity investment of the subsidiary until the loss of control belong to a package transaction, the Company shall account for as a transaction; However, the difference between each disposal consideration received and the corresponding proportion of the subsidiary’s net assets before the loss of control shall be recognized as other comprehensive income in the consolidated financial statements and transferred into the profit and loss of the current period when the control is lost. If the transactions from the disposal of the equity investment of the subsidiary to the loss of control are not considered as a package transactions, the accounting treatment shall be conducted according to the relevant policies on the partial disposal of the equity investment of the subsidiary where control is retained before the loss of control. When the control is lost, the disposal shall be accounted for according to the general treatment. Purchase of non-controlling interests The difference between the increase in the cost of long-term equity investment result from acquisition of non-controlling shareholders and the share of net assets of the subsidiary calculated continuously from the acquisition date or combination date based on newly shareholding proportion shall be adjusted to equity (share) premium of capital reserves in the consolidated balance sheet. If the capital reserve is insufficient, any excess shall be adjusted against retained earnings. Partial disposals of equity investment in subsidiaries without loss of control When the Company disposes of a portion of a long-term equity investment in a subsidiary without loss of control, the difference between disposal consideration and net assets of the subsidiary calculated continuously since the acquisition date or the combination date related to the disposal of long-term equity investment shall be adjusted to equity (share) premium of capital reserves in the consolidated balance sheet. If the capital reserve is insufficient, any excess shall be adjusted against retained earnings. 5.7 Classification of joint venture arrangements and the accounting treatment method of common operation (1) Classification of joint venture arrangements A joint arrangement is classified as either a joint operation or a joint venture according to the structure, legal form, agreed terms and other facts and conditions of a joint arrangement. A joint arrangement that is structured through a separate vehicle is usually classified as a joint venture. However, when a joint arrangement provides clear evidence that it meets any of the following requirements and complies with applicable laws and regulations as a joint operation: a. The legal form of the joint arrangement indicates that the parties that have joint control have rights to the assets, and obligations for the liabilities, relating to the arrangement. b. The terms of the joint arrangement specify that the parties that have joint control have the rights to the assets, and the obligations for the liabilities, relating to the arrangement. c. Other facts and circumstances indicate that the parties that have joint control have rights to the assets, and the obligations for the liabilities, relating to the arrangement. The parties that have joint control have rights to substantially all of the output of the arrangement, and the arrangement depends on the parties that have joint control on a continuous basis for settling the liabilities of the arrangement. (2) Accounting by parties of a joint operator A joint operator shall recognize the following items in relation to its interest in a joint operation, and account for them in accordance with relevant accounting standards: a. Its solely-held assets, and its share of any assets held jointly; b. Its solely-assumed liabilities, and its share of any liabilities incurred jointly; c. Its revenue from the sale of its share of the output arising from the joint operation; d. Its share of the revenue from sale of the output by the joint operation; and e. Its solely-incurred expenses and its share of any expenses incurred jointly. The Company shall only recognize the portion of the profit and loss attributable to other participants in the joint venture, resulting from investment or sale of assets to the joint venture by the Company (excluding those assets constituting the business), prior to the sale of such assets to a third party. The Company shall fully recognize impairment loss when there are any impairment loss of invested or sold assets occurring in accordance with the ASBE No.8-Asset Impairment. The Company shall only recognize the part of the profit and loss attributable to other participants in the joint venture before selling the assets and other assets purchased from the joint venture (excluding those assets constituting the business) to a third party. When the impairment loss of the purchased assets is in accordance with the ASBE No.8-Asset Impairment, the Company shall recognize such losses according to its share. When the Company does not have common control over the joint venture, if the Company enjoys the assets related to the joint venture and assumes the liabilities related to the joint venture, the accounting treatment shall be conducted according to the above principles. Otherwise, the accounting treatment shall be conducted in accordance with the relevant accounting standards. 5.8 Cash and cash equivalents When preparing the cash flow statement, the Company recognizes cash on hand and deposits that can be readily withdrawn on demand as cash. Cash equivalents are the Company’s short-term (due within 3 months from purchase date), highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Restricted bank deposits are not recognized as cash and cash equivalents in the cash flow statement. 5.9 Foreign currency transactions and translation of foreign currency statements (1) Foreign currency transactions At the time of initial recognition of a foreign currency transaction of the Company, the amount in the foreign currency shall be translated into the amount in CNY currency at the spot exchange rate of the transaction date. For the monetary items of foreign currencies, the translation is done according to spot rate of the balance sheet date. The exchange difference generated from the difference of spot rate of the current balance sheet date and the time of initial recognition of a foreign currency or the previous balance sheet date is charged to the profit or loss of the current period except that the exchange difference generated from foreign currency borrowings relating to assets of which the acquisition or production satisfies the capitalization conditions is capitalized. Non-monetary items measured at fair value that is reflected in foreign currency at the end of the period, the Company shall firstly translate the foreign currency into the amount in functional currency at the spot exchange rate on the date when the fair value is determined, and then compare it with the original functional currency amount. Difference between the translated functional currency amount and the original functional currency amount is treated as profit or loss from changes in fair value (including changes in exchange rate) and is recognized in current profit and loss. If there is a non-monetary item of available-for-sale financial assets, the differences are recorded into other comprehensive income. (2) Translation of foreign currency statements Assets and liabilities in the balance sheets shall be translated at the spot exchange rates on balance sheet date. Shareholders’ equity items, except for the item of "undistributed profits", are translated at the spot exchange rates on the dates when the transactions occur. Revenue and expense items in the income statement are translated at the spot exchange rates on the dates when the transactions occur or at the exchange rate determined in a systematical and reasonable method and similar to the spot exchange rate on the day when the transactions occur. Differences arising from the above translations of foreign currency financial statements are separately listed under other comprehensive income in the consolidated balance sheet. If the overseas business is partly disposed of, the foreign currency financial statements exchange difference shall be calculated in proportion to the percentage of disposal and transferred to gain or loss on disposal for the current period. Foreign currency cash flow and cash flow of foreign subsidiaries shall be translated at approximate exchange rate of spot rate on the date of cash flow. 5.10 Financial Instruments A financial instrument is a contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity. When the Company becomes a party to a financial instrument contract, the related financial asset or financial liability should be recognized. (1) Classification, recognition and measurement of financial assets Based on the business model of financial asset management and the contract cash flow characteristics of financial assets, the Company classifies financial assets into: financial assets measured at amortized cost; financial assets measured at fair value with their changes included into other comprehensive income; and financial assets measured at fair value with their changes included into current profits/losses. At the initial recognition, financial assets are measured at fair value. For financial assets measured at fair value with their changes included into current profits/losses, the expenses involved in the transaction are directly recorded into current profits/losses; for other financial liabilities, the expenses involved in the transaction are recorded into the initially recognized amount. 1) Financial assets measured at amortized cost The business model in which the Company manages financial assets measured at amortized cost aims to receive contract cash flow. Furthermore, the characteristics of the contract cash flow of such financial assets are consistent with basic borrowing and lending arrangements, which means that cash flow generated on a specific date serves only as payment for principal and interests based on the amount of unpaid principal. The Company adopts the effective interest method for such financial interests, performs subsequent measurement of them at amortized cost, and includes the gains or losses from derecognition, changes or impairment of them into current profits/losses. 2) Financial assets measured at fair value with their changes included into other comprehensive income The business model in which the Company manages such financial assets both aims to receive contract cash flow and for the purpose of sale. Furthermore, the characteristics of the contract cash flow of such financial assets are consistent with basic borrowing and lending arrangements. The Company measure such financial assets at fair value and include their changes into other comprehensive income, but record impairment losses or gains, exchange gains or losses and interest income calculated in the effective interest method into current profits/losses. At the initial recognition, the Company may specify non-trading equity instrument investment as a financial asset measured at fair value with its changes included into other comprehensive income and should recognize the dividend income according to regulations; the specification is irrevocable once made. When the financial asset is derecognized, the cumulative gains or losses previously included into other comprehensive income should be transferred into retained earnings. 3) Financial assets measured at fair value with their changes included into current profits/losses For financial assets other than the above financial assets measured at amortized cost and financial assets measured at fair value with their changes included into other comprehensive income, the Company classifies them as financial assets measured at fair value with their changes included into current profits/losses. In addition, at the initial recognition, the Company specifies partial financial assets as financial assets measured at fair value with their changes included into current profits/losses, in order to eliminate or substantially reduce accounting mismatch. For such financial assets, the Company performs subsequent measurement using fair value and records changes in the fair value into current profits/losses. (2) Classification, recognition and measurement of financial liabilities At their initial recognition, financial liabilities are divided into financial liabilities measured at fair value with their changes included into current profits/losses and other financial liabilities. For financial liabilities measured at fair value with their changes included into current profits/losses, the expenses involved in the transaction are directly recorded into the current profits/losses. For other financial liabilities, the expenses involved in the transaction are recorded into the initially recognized value. 1) Financial liabilities measured at fair value with their changes included into current profits/losses Financial liabilities measured at fair value with their changes included into current profits/losses include trading financial liabilities (including derivatives classified as financial liabilities) and the financial liabilities specified to be measured at fair value with their changes included into current profits/losses at the initial recognition. Trading financial liabilities (including derivatives classified as financial liabilities) are subsequently measured at fair value, with changes in fair value recorded into current profits/losses, except for those related to hedge accounting. For those specified as financial liabilities measured at fair value with their changes included into current profits/losses, changes in the fair value of such liabilities caused by changes in the Company’s own credit risk should be included into other comprehensive income. In derecognition of such liabilities, cumulative changes in their value caused by the Company’s own credit risk that have been recorded into other comprehensive income should be transferred into retained earnings. Other changes in their fair value should be recorded into current profits/losses. If treatment of the impact of the Company’s own credit risk changes of such financial liabilities in the above manner causes or expands accounting mismatch in profits/losses, the Company will include all gains or losses of such financial liabilities (including the amount of the impact of the Company’s own credit risk changes) into current profits/losses. 2) Other financial liabilities Financial liabilities other than those formed from the transfer of financial assets not meeting derecognition conditions or continuous involvement into transferred financial assets and those outside financial guarantee contracts are classified as financial liabilities measured at amortized cost. Such financial liabilities should be subsequently measured at amortized cost and the gains or losses from derecognition or amortization should be included into current profits/losses. (3) Recognition basis and measurement method of transfer of financial assets If a financial asset meets any of the following conditions, it shall be derecognized: 1)The contractual right for collecting the cash flow of the financial asset has been terminated; 2)The financial asset has been transferred and almost all the risks and remunerations in respect of the ownership of the financial asset has been transferred to the transferee; 3)The financial asset has been transferred, and although the enterprise neither transfers nor retains almost all the risks and remunerations in respect of the ownership of the financial asset, it has abandoned its control over the asset. If the enterprise neither transfers nor retains almost all the risks and remunerations in respect of the ownership of the financial asset and does not abandon its control over the asset, the involved financial asset shall be recognized according to the level of continuous involvement of the transferred financial asset and the relevant liabilities shall be recognized accordingly. The level of continuous involvement of the transferred financial asset refers to the level of risk faced by the enterprise due to changes in the value of the financial asset. If the overall transfer of the financial asset meets the recognition conditions, the difference between the carrying value of the transferred financial asset as well as the consideration received from the transfer and the cumulative amount of fair value changes originally-recorded into other comprehensive incomes shall be recorded into the current profits/losses. If partial transfer of the financial asset meets the recognition conditions, the carrying value of the transferred financial asset shall be apportioned at the relative fair value between the derecognition and underecognition part. The difference between the summation of the consideration received from the transfer and the cumulative amount of fair value changes originally-recorded into other comprehensive incomes that should be apportioned to the derecognition part and the apportioned aforementioned carrying value shall be recorded into the current profits/losses. For a financial asset sold with the right of recourse or with the transfer of the financial asset endorsement, the Company shall decide whether almost all the risks and remunerations in respect of the ownership of the financial asset should be transferred. If they are transferred, the financial asset shall be derecognized; if they are retained, the financial asset shall not be derecognized; if they are neither transferred nor retained, the Company will continue to decide whether the enterprise should retain control over the asset and perform the accounting treatment according to the principles stated in previous paragraphs. (4) Derecognition of financial liabilities When the current obligation of a financial liability (or a part of it) is relieved, the Company will derecognize the financial liability (or the part of it). When the Company (borrower) signs an agreement with a lender to replace an original financial liability in the form of bearing a new financial liability and the contract terms for the new financial liability differ from those for the original in substance, the original financial liability should be derecognized and the new one should be recognized. When the Company makes substantial changes to the contract terms of an original financial liability (or a part of it), the original financial liability should be derecognized and a new financial liability should be recognized according to the amended contract terms. When a financial liability (or a part of it) is derecognized, the Company will include the difference between its carrying value and the consideration paid (including non-cash assets or liabilities borne that are transferred out) into current profits/losses. (5) Offsetting of financial assets and financial liabilities When the Company has the legal right to offset recognized financial assets and financial liabilities and may execute the legal right currently and simultaneously, the Company plans to settle or simultaneously encash the financial assets in net amounts and pay off the financial liabilities, the financial assets and the financial liabilities which are presented in the net amount after the mutual offset in the balance sheet. Other than that, they shall be presented separately in the balance sheet without the mutual offset. (6) Method of determining the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities Fair value refers to the price that a market participant can receive for selling an asset or transferring a liability in an orderly transaction on the measurement date. For an existing financial instrument in an active market, the Company adopts the quotations in the active market to determine its fair value. Quotations in the active market refer to prices that can be easily obtained from exchanges, brokers, industrial associations and pricing service institutions and represent the actual prices in the market transactions happening in a fair trade. For a non-existing financial instrument in an active market, the Company adopts the valuation technique to determine its fair value. The valuation technique includes references to familiar situations and the prices used by the parties voluntarily participating in the recent market transactions, as well as references to the present fair value of other financial instruments of the same nature, discounted cash flow method and options pricing model. In the valuation, the Company uses a valuation technique that is applicable in the current situation with sufficient data available and other information support, chooses input values that are consistent with the asset or liability characteristics considered by market players in related asset or liability transactions, and make maximum effort to use related observable input values on a preferential basis. When it is unable or unfeasible to obtain related observable input values, unobservable will be used. (7) Equity instruments Equity instruments refer to the contracts that can prove the Company’s residual equity of assets after the deduction of all liabilities. The Company’s issuance (including refinancing), repurchase, sale or cancellation of equity instruments serve as the change treatment of equity. Transaction expenses related to the equity transactions are deducted from the equity. The Company does not recognize changes in the fair value of equity instruments. Dividends from the Company’s equity instruments distributed during the validity (including the “interests” from instruments classified as equity instruments) are treated as profit distribution. (8) Impairment of financial instruments Based on the expected credit loss, the Company treats financial assets measured at amortized cost and debt instrument investment measured at fair value with its changes included into other comprehensive income by impairment and recognizes the provision for loss. Credit loss means the difference between all contract cash flow discounted at the original effective interest rate to be received according to contracts and all contract cash flow expected to be received, namely, the present value of all cash shortage. For a financial asset with credit impairment purchased by or originated from the Company, it should be discounted by the effective interest rate after credit adjustment to the financial asset. For accounts receivable that do not contain significant financing components, the Company adopts simplified measurement to measure loss provisions according to the amount equivalent to the expected credit loss for the entire duration. For a financial asset other than those using the above simplified measurement, the Company assesses on each balance sheet date whether its credit risk has substantially increased since the initial recognition. If it has not and is in the first stage, the Company will measure the loss provision at the amount equivalent to the expected credit loss for the next 12 months and calculate the interest income according to the book balance and the effective interest rate; if it has substantially increased since the initial recognition without credit impairment and is in the second stage, the Company will measure the loss provision at the amount equivalent to the expected credit loss for the entire duration and calculate the interest income according to the book balance and the effective interest rate; if credit impairment has occurred since the initial recognition and is in the third stage, the Company will measure the loss provision by the amount equivalent to the expected credit loss for the entire duration and calculate the interest income according to the amortization cost and the effective interest rate. For financial instruments with low credit risks on balance sheet dates, the Company assumes that their credit risks have not substantially increased since the initial recognition. The Company assesses expected credit losses of financial instruments based on individual and group assessment. The Company considers the credit risk characteristics of different customers and assesses the expected credit losses of accounts receivable and other receivables based on account age portfolio. When assessing expected credit losses, the Company considers reasonable and well-founded information on past matters, present conditions and forecast of future economic conditions. When it no longer reasonably expects to recover all or part of the contract cash flow of financial assets, the Company will directly write down the book balance of such financial assets. 5.11 Notes receivable The method of determining the expected credit loss of notes receivables and accounting treatment method: Divide notes receivables into various portfolios according to common risk characteristics based on the credit risk characteristics of acceptors and determine the accounting estimate policies of expected credit loss: 5.12 Accounts receivables The method of determining the expected credit loss of accounts receivables and accounting treatment method: As for accounts receivables, regardless of whether there is a significant financing component, the Company always measures the provision for loss based on the amount equivalent to the expected credit loss over the entire life, and the resulting increase or reversal of provision for loss shall be included in the current profit or loss as gains or losses on impairment. The accrual method is as follows: (1) When there is objective evidence showing that an account receivable has incurred credit impairment, the Company shall make bad debt provision for the account receivable and recognize the expected credit loss. (2) When the information about the expected credit loss of a single financial asset cannot be evaluated at a reasonable cost, the Company shall divide the accounts receivables portfolio according to credit risk characteristics and measure the expected credit loss based on portfolios. Other portfolio refers to the normal intercourse funds among the Company and businesses under the same control, the recovery of which are controllable with no risks. Thus, no bad debt provision was made. The Company combines the accounts receivables classified as risk portfolio in accordance with similar credit risk characteristics (aging), and calculates the expected credit loss through the exposure at default and expected credit loss rate over the entire life based on the current situation and prediction of future economic situation consulting historical credit loss experience. The comparative table of the credit loss rate is as follows: 5.13 Accounts receivables financing The accounts receivables financing of the Company refer to the notes receivables measured at fair value through other comprehensive income on the balance sheet date. For more details, see Note 5.10 Financial instruments. 5.14 Other receivables The method of determining the expected credit loss of other receivables and accounting treatment method: As for other receivables, regardless of whether there is a significant financing component, the Company always measures the provision for loss based on the amount equivalent to the expected credit loss over the entire life, and the resulting increase or reversal of provision for loss shall be included in the current profit or loss as gains or losses on impairment. The accrual method is as follows: (1) When there is objective evidence showing that the other receivable has incurred credit impairment, the Company shall make bad debt provision for the other receivable and recognize the expected credit loss. (2) When the information about the expected credit loss of a single financial asset cannot be evaluated at a reasonable cost, the Company shall divide the other receivables portfolio according to credit risk characteristics and measure the expected credit loss based on portfolios. Other portfolio refers to the normal intercourse funds among the Company and businesses under the same control, the recovery of which are controllable with no risks. Thus, no bad debt provision was made. The Company combines the other receivables classified as risk portfolio in accordance with similar credit risk characteristics (aging), and calculates the expected credit loss through the exposure at default and expected credit loss rate over the entire life based on the current situation and prediction of future economic situation consulting historical credit loss experience. The comparative table of the credit loss rate is as follows: 5.15 Inventory (1) Classification of inventory Inventories are classified as: raw materials, goods in progress, semi-finished goods, stock commodities, dispatched inventories, revolving materials (including packing materials and low-cost consumables). (2) Measurement method of dispatched inventories The standard cost is used for daily accounting of raw materials, and the difference of material cost should be carried forward on a monthly basis to adjust the standard cost into the actual cost; The goods in progress and semi-finished goods shall be accounted according to the actual cost, and the weighted average method shall be used when they are received and delivered. The actual cost of the inventory at the end of the month above shall be taken as the standard cost, and the delivery shall be priced according to the standard cost. At the end of the month, the standard cost of the inventory at the end of the month shall be adjusted into the actual cost through the cost-sharing difference. (3) Basis to determine net realizable values of inventories and method of provision for stock obsolescence At the end of the period, inventory is measured according to the lower of cost and net realizable value. The difference between inventory cost and net realizable value is higher than the provision for stock obsolescence , which is recorded into current profit and loss. For inventories that are related to product ranges produced and sold in the same district or used for the same or similar ultimate purpose and are difficult to be measured separately from other inventories, the Company provides for stock obsolescence as a whole. For inventories that have large quantities but low value, the Company provides for stock obsolescence on a category basis. The materials held for production shall be measured at cost if the net realizable value of the finished products is higher than the cost. If a decline in the value of materials shows that the net realizable value of the finished products is lower than the cost, the materials shall be measured at the net realizable value. (4) Inventory system The Company adopts perpetual inventory system. (5) Amortization method of packing materials and low-cost consumables It is amortized in full at once. 5.16 Contract assets The Company presents contract assets or contract liabilities on the balance sheet according to the relationship between the fulfillment of its contract performance obligations and its customers’ payment. Considerations that the Company has the right to collect for commodities transferred or services provided to customers (and such right depends on other factors than time lapses) are presented as contract assets. The Company presents the right possessed to collect consideration from customers unconditionally (only depending on the passing of time) as accounts receivable. Refer to “The method of determining the expected credit loss of accounts receivables and accounting treatment method” for the detail on the Company’s method of determining the expected credit loss of contract assets and accounting treatment method. 5.17 Contract costs Contract costs comprise incremental costs incurred as the Company obtains a contract, and costs for contract performance. Incremental costs incurred as the Company obtains a contract refer to those costs which will not incur without entering into a contract (such as sales commission). If it is expected that the costs are recoverable, the Company will recognize the costs incurred to obtain a contract as one form of assets. In case that the term of asset amortization is shorter than one year or one normal operating cycle, the costs will be recognized as profit and loss of the current period after occurrence. If the costs incurred from contract performance fall outside the inventory or the scope of other enterprise accounting standards and satisfy all of the following conditions, the Company will recognize the costs for contract performance as assets: a) The costs are directly related to one existing contract or contract that is expected to be obtained; b) The costs enrich the Company's resources for future contract performance (including continual fulfillment); c) The costs are estimated to be recovered. Assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain a contract and costs for contract performance (hereinafter referred to as "assets related to contract costs") will be amortized based on the basis the same with the income from commodities or services related to the assets, and will be recognized as profit and loss of the current period. In case that the book value of assets related to contract costs is higher than the difference of the two items below, the Company will set aside provisions for assets impairment to deal with the extra part, and recognize that part as impairment losses: a) Estimated residual consideration to be obtained from transfer of commodities or services related to the assets; b) Estimated costs incurred from transfer of the relevant commodities or services. 5.18 Assets held for sale (1) Classification of non-current assets held for sale or disposal groups The Company shall classify the non-current assets or disposal group meeting the following conditions into the held-for-sale category: The assets (or disposal group) must be available for immediate sale in its present condition subject only to terms that are usual and customary for sales of such assets (or disposal groups); Its sale must be highly probable.; The Company has already made a decision to dispose the component and has a commitment from the purchaser, the transfer will be completed within one year. The non-current assets or disposal group acquired by the Company for resale shall be divided into the held-for-sale category on the acquisition date if it meets the condition that "the sale is expected to be completed within one year" and if it is likely to meet other conditions for the held-for-sale category within a short period (usually three months). Due to one of the following reasons that the Company is unable to control, leading to the transactions uncompleted with non-related party within one year, and the Company still commits to sale non-current assets or disposal groups, it can continue to account for non-current assets or disposal groups as held-for-sale: the buyer or any other party accidentally set sale extension condition. The Company has to take action in time according to these conditions and the extension problem is expected to be solved within one year; In rare cases, the Company has taken the necessary steps and re-satisfy the hold for sale category condition within the first year for the new circumstances which caused it unable to complete the sale of the non-current assets or disposal group within one year. (2) Measurement of non-current assets or disposal groups held for sale a. Initial measurement and subsequent measurement When the Company measure a non-current asset or disposal group held for sale initially or re-measure at balance sheet date subsequently, the impairment loss should be recognized if the book value is higher than fair value less costs to sell at the amount of the difference of these two in profit and loss, the provision for assets held for sale need to be recognized at the same time. For the non-current assets or disposal groups divided into held-for-sale category on the acquisition date, they shall be measured as the lower of the initial measurement amount and the net amount after deducting the selling expenses from the fair value under the assumption that it is not divided into held-for-sale categories at the initial measurement. Except for the non-current assets or the disposal groups obtained in the enterprise merger, the difference caused by the non-current assets or the disposal groups taking the net amount after the fair value minus the selling expenses as the initial measurement amount shall be recorded into the current profit and loss. For the impairment of disposal group, it should write off goodwill if existing, and then write down the related assets proportionally. Depreciation or amortization should cease for the non-current asset held for sale. Interest and other charges on liabilities in the disposal groups held for sale continue to be recognized. b. Accounting treatment of reversal of impairment loss If the net amount of the non-current assets held for sale on the subsequent balance sheet date increases after the fair value minus the selling expenses, the amount previously written down shall be reversed, and the amount of the impairment loss recognized after being classified as the held-for-sale shall be reversed, and the reversed amount shall be included in the current profit and loss. The impairment loss recognized before the classification of the held-for-sale shall not be reversed. If the net amount of the disposal groups held for sale on the subsequent balance sheet date increases after the fair value deducting the selling expenses, the amount previously written down shall be reversed, and the amount of the impairment loss recognized as non-current assets after being classified as the held-for-sale shall be reversed, and the reversed amount shall be included in the current profit and loss. The book value of the goodwill that has been written down and the impairment losses recognized before the classification of the held-for-sale shall not be reversed. The subsequent reversed amount of the impairment loss recognized by the disposal groups held for sale shall be increased in proportion to the book value of non-current assets except goodwill in the disposal groups. c. The accounting treatment that does not continue to be classified as held-for-sale and the termination of recognition Non-current assets or disposal groups that are no longer divided into held-for-sale category or non-current assets are removed from disposal groups held for sale because of no longer meeting the condition of classification of held-for-sale, they are measured at lower of the following two: book value before being classified as the held-for-sale considering depreciation, amortization or impairment that should have been recognized under the assumption that it is not divided into held-for-sale categories; and recoverable amount. When terminating the recognition of the non-current assets held for sale or the disposal groups, the unrecognized gains or losses shall be recorded into the current profit and loss. 5.19 Long-term equity investment (1) Judgment criteria of common control and significant influence Common control on an agreement with other participants refers to the Company share control with other participants on an arrangement according to relevant conventions, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control. This arrangement belongs to joint venture. Where the joint venture arrangement is made by a separate entity and the Company is judged to have rights to the net assets of such a separate entity according to the relevant conventions. Such a separate entity shall be regarded as a joint venture and accounted by the equity method. If the Company is judged to be not entitled to the net assets of the separate entity according to relevant conventions, the separate entity shall be regarded as a joint venture and the Company shall recognize the items related to the shares of the joint venture and perform accounting treatment in accordance with relevant accounting standards. The term ‘significant influence’ refers to the power to participate in decision-making on the financial and operating policies of the investee, but with no control or joint control over the formulation of these policies. The Company judges that it has a significant impact on the invested entity through one or more of the following situations and taking all the facts and circumstances into consideration: a. Dispatch representatives to the board of directors or similar authorities of the investee. b. To participate in the financial and business policy making process of the investee. c. Significant transactions with the investee. d. Dispatch management personnel to the investee. e. To provide key technical data to the investee. (2) Determination of the initial investment cost a. Long-term equity investment resulting from combination Business combination under common control: For the long-term equity investments obtained by cash paid, non-monetary assets paid or assumed liabilities and the equity securities issued by the acquirer, on the merger date, the initial investment cost of long-term equity investment shall be taken as the share of the owner's equity of the investee in the book value of the final control party's consolidated financial statements. If the investee under business combination under common control can be controlled due to additional investment or other reasons, the initial investment cost of long-term equity investment shall be determined on the merger date according to the share of the net assets of the investee in the book value of the final control party's consolidated financial statements. The difference between the initial investment cost of the long-term equity investment on the merger date and sum of the book value of the long-term equity investment before the merger and the new consideration of acquiring shares on the merger date shall be recorded to adjust the equity premium. If the equity premium is insufficient to be written down, the retained earnings shall be written down. Business combination not under common control:The Company takes the initial investment cost of long-term equity investment as the merger cost determined on the purchase date. If the investee can be controlled under business combination not under common control due to additional investment or other reasons, the previous book value of the equity investment held plus the sum of the newly added investment cost shall be taken as the initial investment cost calculated according to the cost method. b. Long-term equity investment obtained by other means For the long-term equity investments obtained by cash paid, the Company recognizes their fair value as the initial investment costs. For the long-term equity investments acquired by the issue of equity securities, the initial investment cost shall be the fair value of the equity securities issued. For long-term equity investments obtained by non-monetary assets exchange, under the condition that an exchange of non-monetary assets is of commerce nature and the fair value of assets exchanged can be reliably measured, non-monetary assets traded in is initially stated at the fair value of the assets traded out, unless there is conclusive evidence indicating that the fair value of the assets traded in is more reliable; if the above conditions are not satisfied, initial investment costs of long-term equity investments traded in shall be recognized at the book value of the assets traded out and the relevant taxes and surcharges payable. For long-term equity investments obtained by debt restructuring, the Company recognizes the fair value of shares of debt-for-equity swap as the initial investment costs. (3) Subsequent measurement and recognition of profit and loss a. Long-term equity investments measured under the cost method Long-term equity investments that can control the investee are measured under the cost method. For long-term equity investments accounted at the cost method, except cash dividends or profits declared but not yet distributed which are included in the actual payments or the consideration actually paid for the investment, the cash dividends or profits declared by the investee shall be recognized as the investment income irrespective of net profits realized by the investee before investment or after investment. b. Long-term equity investments measured under the equity method For the long-term equity investment which has joint control or significant influence over the investee, the equity method is adopted for accounting. For long-term equity investments measured at the equity method, if the initial investment costs are higher than the investor’s attributable share of the fair value of the investee’s identifiable net assets, no adjustment will be made to the initial costs of the long-term equity investments; if the initial investment costs are lower than the investor’s attributable share of the fair value of the investee’s identifiable net assets, the difference shall be recognized in current profit and loss. The Company shall, according to the shares of net profits and other comprehensive income realized by the investee that shall be enjoyed or borne by the Company, recognize the profit and loss on the investments and adjust the book value of the long-term equity investments. When recognizing the net profits and losses and other comprehensive income of the investee that the Company shall enjoy or bear, the Company shall make a recognition and calculation based on the net book profits and losses of the investee after appropriate adjustments. However, where the Company is unable to obtain the relevant information due to failure to reasonably determine the fair value of the investee’s identifiable assets, minor difference between the investee’s identifiable assets and the book value thereof or other reasons, the profits or losses on the investments shall be directly calculated and recognized based on the net book profits and losses of the investee. The Company shall calculate the part distributed from cash dividends or profits declared by the investee and correspondingly reduce the book value of the long-term equity investments. When recognizing the income from investments in associates and joint ventures, the Company shall write off the part of incomes from internal unrealized transactions between the Company and associates and joint ventures which are attributable to the Company and recognize the profit and loss on investments on such basis. Where the losses on internal transactions between the Company and the investee are impairment of related assets, full amounts of such losses shall be recognized. Profit and loss from internal unrealized transactions between the Company’s subsidiaries included into the combination scope and associates and joint ventures shall be written off according to the above principles and the profit and loss on investments thereafter shall be recognized on such basis. When the share of net loss of the investee attributable to the Company is recognized, it is treated in the following sequence: Firstly, write off the book value of the long-term equity investments; where the book value of the long-term equity investments is insufficient to cover the loss, investment losses are recognized to the extent that book value of long-term equity which form net investment in the investee in other substances and the book value of long-term receivables shall be written off; after all the above treatments, if the Company still assumes additional obligation according to investment contracts or agreements, the obligation expected to be assumed should be recognized as provision and included into the investment loss in the current period. If the investee is profitable in subsequent accounting periods, the Company shall treat the loss in reverse order against that described above after deducting unrecognized share of loss: i.e. write down the book value of the recognized provision, then restore the book value of long-term interests which substantially form net investments in the investee, then restore the book value of long-term investments, and recognize investment income at the same time. 5.20 Investment property Measurement model of investment property Cost model Method of depreciation or amortization Investment property is the property that is held to earn rent or capital appreciation or both and can be measured and sold separately. The Company’s investment property includes land use right already rent, land use right held for appreciation and then sold, and buildings already rent. Initial Recognition When the Company can obtain the rental income or value-added income related to the investment property and the cost of the investment property that can be measured reliably, the Company will initially measure it according to the actual expenditure of purchase or construction: The cost of the purchased investment property includes the purchase price and related taxes directly attributable to the asset; The cost of self-built investment property consists of the necessary expenses incurred before the asset reaches the intended use condition; The cost of the investment property obtained by other means shall be recognized in accordance with relevant accounting standards. Subsequent measurement In general, the Company adopts the cost model to measure the follow-up expenditure of investment property. The depreciation or amortization of investment property shall be carried out in accordance with the accounting policies for the Company's fixed assets or intangible assets. If there is solid evidence suggests that the investment property acquired can be measured at fair value continuously and reliably, the Company can use fair value model for subsequent measurement. For the investment property measured at fair value model, the Company does not provide depreciation or amortization and adjusts its book value based on the fair value of investment property at the balance sheet date. The difference between the fair value and book value is recorded into current profit or loss. (3) When the Company changes the use of investment property, the relevant investment property will be transferred to other assets. 5.21. Fixed assets (1) Recognition of fixed assets Fixed assets refer to tangible assets held for the purpose of producing commodities, providing services, renting or business management with useful life exceeding one accounting year. Fixed assets are recognized when the following criteria are satisfied simultaneously: It is probable that the economic benefits relating to the fixed assets will flow into the Company; the cost of the fixed assets can be measured reliably. (2) Depreciation of fixed assets Except for fixed assets still in use after full depreciation, the Company depreciates all fixed assets and calculates the depreciation in the straight-line depreciation method. Based on the nature and use of fixed assets, the Company determines their service life and estimated net salvage value and reviews their service life, estimated net salvage value and depreciation method at the end of the year. Changes in the service life, estimated net salvage value and depreciation method of the same type of assets are treated as changes in accounting estimation. The Company’s newly-built brewing production lines, packaging production lines and warehousing assets, and the houses and buildings, special and general equipment formed thereof are obviously different from the existing same types of assets and have obviously longer estimated service life than the same types of fixed assets. The maximum years of depreciation for different types of the newly-built fixed assets are as follows: 45 years for houses and buildings; 35 years for special equipment and 25 years for general equipment. During the year, some of the Company’s projects in progress reached the expected usable state and were transferred into fixed assets. (3) Recognition standard, valuation method and depreciation method for fixed assets acquired under financing lease If the purchase price of a fixed asset exceeds the normal credit conditions and the payment is delayed, which has a financing nature, the cost of the fixed asset shall be determined on the basis of the present value of the purchase price. The difference between the actual price paid and the present value of the purchase price, unless it should be capitalized, shall be recorded into the current profit and loss in the credit period. For fixed assets acquired under financing lease, at the inception of the lease, the Company shall recognizes it at the lower of the fair value of the leased assets or the present value of the minimum lease payments. Fixed assets acquired under financing lease is adapted the same depreciation method as the one used on other fixed assets owned by the Company. If there is reasonable assurance that the Company will obtain the ownership of the leased assets when the lease term expires, the leased assets should be depreciated over its useful life; if there is no reasonable assurance that the Company will obtain the ownership of the leased assets when the lease term expires, the leased assets should be depreciated over the shorter of the lease term or the useful life of the leased assets. 5. 22. Construction in progress (1) Construction in progress refers to various construction and installation works carried out for the construction or repair of fixed assets, including the actual expenditure incurred in new construction, reconstruction and expansion, and the net value of fixed assets transferred from the reconstruction and expansion projects. (2) Construction in progress is accounted on an individual project basis with actual cost valuation method. The borrowing costs incurred before the projects reach the intended use condition shall be included in the project cost. The fixed assets shall be carried forward in the month when the project is qualified for acceptance and delivery for use. For those that have reached the intended use condition but have not yet completed the final account, from the date of reaching the intended use condition, according to the project budget, construction cost or the actual cost of the project, the cost transferred to the fixed assets shall be determined according to the estimated value, and the depreciation shall be recognized; After the completion of the final account, the original provisional value shall be adjusted according to the actual cost, but the amount of depreciation accrued shall not be adjusted. (3) The loan interest and related expenses incurred during the construction period shall be capitalized into the cost of the construction in Progress. (4) On the balance sheet date, the construction in progress is recognized at the lower of book value and recoverable amount. 5. 23. Borrowing costs (1) Scope of borrowing costs and its capitalization conditions The Company’s borrowing costs capitalized during period of capitalization are relevant loan expenses directly attributable to the assets eligible for capitalization, including interest thereon, amortization of discounts or premiums, ancillary expenses and exchange differences incurred from foreign currency loan, etc. Borrowing costs are capitalized when the following three conditions are met simultaneously: ① the asset expenditure has occurred, ② the borrowing costs have occurred, ③ the purchase and construction activities necessary to make the assets reach the intended use condition have started. (2) Recognition of capitalized amounts The capitalized amount of borrowing expenses is calculated as follows: As for special loan borrowed for acquiring and constructing or producing assets eligible for capitalization, borrowing costs of special loan actually incurred in the current period less the interest income of the loans unused and deposited in bank or return on temporary investment should be recognized as the capitalization amount of borrowing costs. As for general loans used for acquiring and constructing or producing assets eligible for capitalization, the interest of general loans to be capitalized should be calculated by multiplying the weighted average of asset disbursements of the part of accumulated asset disbursements in excess of special loans by the capitalization rate of used general loans. During the period of capitalization, the capitalized amount of interest of each accounting period shall not exceed the current actual interest of the relevant loans. Where there are discounts or premiums on loans, the amounts of interest for each accounting period should be adjusted taking account of amortizable discount or premium amounts for the period by effective interest method. Auxiliary expenses incurred from special loans before the acquired or constructed assets eligible for capitalization reach the working condition for their intended use or sale should be capitalized when they incur and charged to the costs of assets eligible for capitalization; those incurred after the acquired or constructed assets eligible for capitalization reach the working condition for their intended use or sale should be recognized as costs according to the amounts incurred when they incur and charged to the current profit or loss. (3) Recognition of capitalization rate For a special loan for the purchase and construction of fixed assets, the capitalization rate is the interest rate of the loan; For more than one special loan for the acquisition and construction of fixed assets, the capitalization rate is a weighted average interest rate of these loans. (4) Capitalization suspension of borrowing costs If the acquisition and construction or production activities of assets eligible for capitalization are interrupted abnormally and this condition lasts for more than three months, the capitalization of borrowing costs should be suspended. The borrowing costs incurred during interruption are charged to profit or loss for the current period, and the capitalization of borrowing costs continues when the acquisition and construction or production activities of the asset resume. (5) Capitalization cessation of borrowing costs Capitalization of borrowing costs should cease when the acquired and constructed or produced assets eligible for capitalization have reached the working condition for their intended use or sale. Borrowing costs incurred after the assets eligible for capitalization have reached the working condition for their intended use or sale should be recognized as the current profit and loss when they incur. If parts of the acquired and constructed or produced assets are completed separately but the assets cannot be used or sold externally until overall completion, the capitalization of borrowing costs should cease at the time of overall completion of the said assets. 5. 24. Intangible assets (1) Measurement method, useful life, impairment test Measurement method a. Costs of intangible assets purchased include purchase price, related tax and expenses and other expenditure that can be distributed to the asset directly to reach its expected use. b. Intangible assets invested by investors shall be valued at the value agreed upon in the investment contract or agreement; c. Expenses on the research phase of internally researched and developed intangible assets shall be included in the current profit and loss when they incur; The expenditures incurred in the development stage of the internal research and development projects shall be recognized as intangible assets when the following conditions are met; otherwise, they shall be recorded into the current profit and loss when they incur. i. It is technically feasible to finish intangible assets for use or sale; ii. It is intended to finish and use or sell the intangible assets; iii. The usefulness of methods for intangible assets to generate economic benefits shall be proved, including being able to prove that there is a potential market for the products manufactured by applying the intangible assets or there is a potential market for the intangible assets themselves or the intangible assets will be used internally; iv. It is able to finish the development of the intangible assets, and able to use or sell the intangible assets, with the support of sufficient technologies, financial resources and other resources. v. The expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development phase can be measured reliably. d. If payment of the purchase price of intangible assets can be deferred and exceeds normal credit conditions, the purchase has the nature of finance in fact and cost of the intangible asset shall be determined on the basis of present value of the purchase price. The difference between the amount actually paid and the present value of the purchase price should be recorded into current profit or loss other than those should be capitalized during the credit period. Useful life and amortization method For intangible assets with limited useful life, amortization shall be carried out according to the straight-line method within the period that brings economic benefits to the enterprise. At the end of each period, the useful life and amortization method of intangible assets with limited service life shall be reviewed. If there are differences with the original estimates, corresponding adjustments shall be made. Intangible assets whose useful life is uncertain shall be regarded as intangible assets if it is impossible to foresee the term in which intangible assets bring economic benefits to the enterprise. Intangible assets with uncertain useful life shall not be amortized during the holding period, and the life of intangible assets shall be reviewed at the end of each period. If it is still uncertain after the review at the end of the period, the impairment test shall continue during each accounting period. At the end of each period, the useful life of intangible assets with uncertain service life shall be reviewed. Impairment test On the balance sheet date, intangible assets are valued at the lower of book value and recoverable amount. (2) Internal research and development expenditure accounting policy The expenditures incurred in the development stage of the internal research and development projects shall be recognized as intangible assets when the following conditions are met; otherwise, they shall be recorded into the current profit and loss when they occur. a. It is technically feasible to finish intangible assets for use or sale; b. It is intended to finish and use or sell the intangible assets; c.

It is able to finish the development of the intangible assets, and able to use or sell the intangible assets, with the support of sufficient technologies, financial resources and other resources. e. The expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development phase can be measured reliably. Development expenditures that have been recorded into profit and loss in previous periods are not recognized as assets in subsequent periods. The capitalized expenditure in the development stage is listed as development expenditure in the balance sheet, and it will be recorded into intangible assets from the date when the project reaches its intended purpose. 5. 25. Long-term assets impairment On the balance sheet date, the Company makes a judgment on whether there are signs of possible impairment of long-term assets. If there are impairment indicators of non-current assets, the Company estimates the recoverable amount based on individual asset. If recoverable amount of individual asset is difficult to be estimated, the Company should recognize the recoverable amount of the asset group which the individual asset belongs to. The recoverable amount is the higher of fair values less costs of disposal and the present values of the future cash flows expected to be derived from the asset. If the measurement result of recoverable amount shows that recoverable amount of the non-current assets is less than its book value, the book value shall be written down to the recoverable amount, and the amount written down shall be recognized as the impairment loss of assets, recorded into the current profit and loss, and the corresponding impairment provision of assets shall be made at the same time. Once impairment loss stated above is recognized, reversal is not allowed in the subsequent accounting periods. After the recognition of the impairment loss, the depreciation or amortization expense of the impairment asset shall be adjusted accordingly in the future period so as to systematically apportion the adjusted book value of the asset (deducting the expected net salvage value) within the remaining service life of the asset. The Company should perform impairment test for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite life at least at each year end, no matter whether there is impairment indicator. Goodwill shall be combined with its related asset group or asset group portfolio so as to perform an impairment test. When the Company performs an impairment test on relevant asset group or asset group portfolio including goodwill, if there are signs of impairment, the Company shall firstly perform an impairment test on asset group or asset group portfolio excluding goodwill and calculate the recoverable amount, and compare with the related book value, recognize the corresponding impairment loss. Then, the Company performs an impairment test on relevant asset group or asset group portfolio including goodwill, and compares the book value of the relevant asset groups or asset group portfolio (including proportional book value of goodwill) with its recoverable amount. If the recoverable amount of relevant asset group or asset group portfolio is less than its book value, the Company shall recognize impairment loss of goodwill. 5. 26. Long-term deferred expenses Long-term deferred expenses shall be initially measured according to the actual costs incurred. It is amortized using the straight-line method over the beneficial period. If it cannot benefit the following accounting period, the amortized value of the item that has not been amortized will be transferred to the current profit and loss. 5. 27 Contract liabilities The recognition method of contract liabilities: The Company presents contract assets or contract liabilities on the balance sheet according to the relationship between the fulfillment of its contract performance obligations and its customers’ payment. Obligations to be fulfilled by the Company of transferring commodities or providing services to customers, as the Company has received or should receive customers’ considerations, are presented as contract liabilities. 5. 28. Employee benefits (1) Accounting treatment method of short-term benefits Short-term benefits are the benefits that the Company expects to pay in full within 12 months after the reporting period in which the employee provided relevant services, excluding the compensation for employment termination. Accrued short term benefits will be recognized as liability during the accounting period in which the employee is providing the relevant service to the Company. The liability will be included in the current profit and loss or the relevant assets cost. (2) Accounting treatment method of post-employment benefits a. Defined contribution plan The defined contribution plan of the Company includes payments of basic pension and unemployment insurance calculated according to the local payment base and proportion. The amount shall be included into the profit and loss or the relevant assets cost for the accounting period in which the employee provides the service to the Company. b. Defined benefit plan According to the formula determined by the expected accumulative projected unit credit method, the Company will record the benefit obligation generated by the defined benefit plan belonging to the period during in which the employee provides the service into the current profit and loss or the relevant assets cost. The deficit or surplus resulting from the present value minus the fair value of the assets of a defined benefit plan is recognized as a net liability or net asset of a defined benefit plan. If there is surplus in the defined benefit plan, the net assets of the defined benefit plan shall be measured at the lower of the surplus and the upper limit of assets of the defined benefit plan. All defined benefit plan obligations, including those expected to be paid within the twelve months following the end of the annual reporting period in which the employee provides the service, are discounted based on the market yield and high quality corporate bonds in an active market that match the duration and currency of defined benefit plan obligations on the balance sheet date. The service costs generated by the defined benefit plan and the net interest on net liabilities or net assets of the defined benefit plan are included in the current profit and loss or relevant assets cost; Changes in net liabilities or net assets generated by the re-measurement of the defined benefit plan are included in other comprehensive income and are not reversed to profit and loss in subsequent accounting periods. At the time of settlement of the defined benefit plan, the settlement gains or losses shall be recognized according to the difference between the present value of the obligations of the defined benefit plan and the settlement price determined on the settlement date. (3) Accounting treatment method of termination benefits Employee benefits liabilities shall be recognized and included into profit or loss for the current period on the earlier date of the two following circumstances: a. When the Company is not able to withdraw the benefits from termination of employment or resignation persuasion unilaterally; b. When the Company recognizes costs and fees relevant to reforming the termination benefits payment. As for the termination benefits that cannot be fully paid within 12 months after the end of the annual report period, the Company shall choose an appropriate discount rate and record it into current profit and loss based on it. (4) Accounting treatment method of other long-term employee benefits Employee benefits liabilities shall be recognized and included into profit or loss for the current period on the earlier date of the two following circumstances: a. When the Company is not able to withdraw the benefits from termination of employment or resignation persuasion unilaterally; b. When the Company recognizes costs and fees relevant to reforming the termination benefits payment. As for the termination benefits that cannot be fully paid within 12 months after the end of the annual report period, the Company shall choose an appropriate discount rate and record it into current profit and loss based on it. 5. 29. Estimated liabilities (1) Recognition criteria of estimated liabilities If the contingent obligations meet the following conditions simultaneously, the Company shall recognize it as an estimated liability: This obligation is the Company's current obligation; the performance of this obligation is highly likely to result in an outflow of economic benefits from the Company; The amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. (2) Measurement method of estimated liabilities The Company's estimated liabilities are initially measured in terms of the best estimate of the expenditure of fulfilling the relevant current obligations. For determining the best estimate, the Company takes various factors into account such as the risk, uncertainty and time value of money related to contingencies. If the time value of money has a significant impact, the best estimate is determined by discounting the relevant future cash outflows. The best estimate is processed as follows: Where there is a continuous range (or range) of required expenditures and the probability of the occurrence of various results within the range is same, the best estimate is determined according to the mean of the middle value of the range, namely the mean value of the upper and lower limits. Where there is no continuous range (or range) of required expenditures, or where there is a continuous range but the possibility of various outcomes within the range is different, if the contingencies involve a single item, the best estimate is determined according to the most likely amount; If the contingencies involve more than one item, the best estimate is calculated and determined according to various possible results and relevant probabilities. Where all or part of the expenses required for the liquidation of the estimated liabilities of the Company are expected to be compensated by a third party, the amount of compensation shall be recognized as an asset when it is basically confirmed that it can be received, and the confirmed amount of compensation shall not exceed the book value of the estimated liabilities. 5. 30. Share-based payment (1) The type of share-based payment Share-based payment is classified as equity-settled share-based payment and cash-settled share-based payment. (2) The method of determining the fair value of equity instruments For equity-settled share-based payment related with employees, the equity instrument is measured at fair value. The cash-settled share-based payment shall be measured according to the fair value of the liabilities calculated and determined on the basis of shares or other equity instruments undertaken by the Company. For the fair value of the stock option granted, the fair value is determined by using the stock option pricing model, and the following factors are taken into account: the current price of the underlying shares, the exercise price of the option, the risk-free interest rate within the period of the option, the option life, and the expected volatility of the stock price. (3) Recognition of the best estimate basis of instrument that can be exercised For the equity-settled share-based payment settled immediately after the grant, the fair value of the equity instrument shall be included in the relevant costs or expenses on the grant date, and the capital reserve shall be increased accordingly. Grant date means the date on which the share-payment agreement is approved. For the equity-settled share-based payment, in which the services during waiting period are completed and the performance conditions are met, in return for services of employees, on each balance sheet date during waiting period, the current obtained service shall be included in the relevant costs or expenses and the capital reserves in accordance with the fair value of the equity instruments on the grant date, based on best estimate of the number of vested equity instruments, and the subsequent changes in fair value shall not be recognized. On each balance sheet date during waiting period, the Company makes the best estimate based on the latest available employee number change and other subsequent information, and modifies the number of equity instruments for the estimated vesting. On the vesting date, the final expected number of vesting instruments is the same as the actual number of vesting instruments. (4) Relevant accounting treatment of implement, modification and termination of share-based payment plan For equity-settled share-based payment, no adjustments will be made to the recognized costs and total owners' equity after the vesting date. On the vesting date, the Company shall recognize the share capital and the equity premium according to the exercise situation, and carry forward the capital reserve recognized in the waiting period. No matter how it modifies the terms and conditions of the granted equity instruments or it cancels the granted equity instruments or its settlement, the equity instruments granted by the Company shall be recognized at fair value on the grant date and it measures obtained the corresponding services, unless it cannot be vested because it cannot meet the vesting conditions of equity instruments (except market conditions). 5. 31. Revenue Accounting policies for recognition and measurement of revenue The Company starts to implement the new revenue standards. (1) Basic principles of revenue identification The Company recognizes revenue when it has fulfilled the performance obligations under the contract, that is, when the customers obtain the control of relevant goods or services, at the transaction price allocated to the performance obligations. Performance obligations refer to the Company's promise that it will transfer clearly distinguishable goods or services to customers under the contract. Obtaining control of related goods refers to that customers can control the use of the goods and obtain almost all the economic benefits from the goods. The Company will evaluate the contract on the contract start date, identify each individual performance obligation contained in the contract, and judge whether each individual performance obligation will be performed within a certain period of time or at a certain point in time. If one of the following conditions is met, and the performance obligation are performed within a certain period of time, the Company will identify revenue within a period of time according to the performance progress: a. The customers obtain and consume the economic profits while the Company performs the contract. b. The customers can control the products under construction during the performance of the Company; c. The products produced during the performance of the Company cannot be replaced, and the Company has the right to collect payment for the completed performance accumulated during the entire contract period. Otherwise, the Company will identify revenue when the customers obtain control rights of the relevant goods or services. For the performance obligations performed within a certain period of time, the Company will apply the input-output method to identify the appropriate performance progress based on the nature of the goods and services. The input-output method is to identify the performance progress based on the value of the goods that have been transferred to the customers to the customers. When the performance progress cannot be reasonably identified and the Company's incurred costs are expected to be compensated, the Company will identify the revenue according to the amount of the incurred costs until the performance progress can be reasonably identified. (2) The methods of revenue identification The Company mainly sells alcoholic products, which is a performance obligation performed at a certain point in time. The revenue identification of domestic products must meet the following requirements: a. The Company has delivered the products to the purchasers according to the contract and the purchasers have signed and confirmed the receipts. b. The amount of sales revenue has been identified. c. The payment has been received; the receipt of the document of title has been obtained and the relevant economic benefits are likely to flow in. d. The product-related costs can be reliably calculated. The following requirements must be met to confirm the revenue of export products: a. The Company has declared the products in accordance with the contract, obtained the bills of lading, received the payment or obtained the receipt of payment and related economic benefits that are likely to flow in. b. The main risks and rewards of the product ownership have been transferred. c. The legal ownership of the goods has been transferred. Differences in accounting policies for the recognition of revenue caused by different business models for the same type of business 5. 32. Government grants Government grants are monetary assets and non-monetary assets acquired free of charge by the Company from the government like fiscal subsidies. (1) Judgment basis and accounting treatment method of government grants related to assets Government grants related to assets are government grants that are acquired by the Company and used for forming long-term assets through purchasing and constructing or other ways. If the government documents do not clearly specify the target of the subsidy, the Company shall separately explain judgment basis of classifying the government grants into the government grants related to assets or income. Accounting method: it shall be recognized as deferred income allocated evenly over the useful lives (the period of depreciation and amortization) of the relevant assets from the month of commence of depreciation or amortization when the relevant assets reaching the intended use condition, and included in the current profit or loss. However, government grants measured at the nominal amount shall be directly included in current profit and loss. (2) Judgment basis and accounting treatment method of government grants related to income Government grants related to income are government grants other than government grants related to assets; Accounting method: a. If it is used to compensate the Company’s relevant expenses or losses in future periods, it should be recognized as deferred income and included into the current profit and loss or written off of the related costs when the relevant expenses, losses are recognized. b. If it is used to compensate the Company’s relevant expenses or losses incurred, it is directly included into the current profit and loss on acquisition or written off of the related costs. c. Recognition time-point of government grants Government grants are recognized when the Company can meet the attached conditions for the government grants and the Company can receive the grants. d. Measurement of government grants If a government grant is a monetary asset, it shall be measured in the light of the received or receivable amount. If a government grant is a non-monetary asset, it shall be measured at its fair value; and if its fair value cannot be obtained in a reliable way, it shall be measured at a nominal amount. 5. 33. Deferred tax assets or deferred tax liabilities The Company adopts the balance sheet liability method to account for income tax. The Company recognizes deferred tax assets when the following conditions are met simultaneously: i. Temporary differences are highly likely to be reversed in the foreseeable future; ii. Taxable income that may be used to offset the deductible temporary difference is likely to be obtained in the future and is limited to the amount of taxable income that is likely to be obtained. On each balance sheet date, the current income tax liabilities (or assets) incurred in the current period or prior periods shall be measured by the Company in light of the expected payable (refundable) amount of income taxes according to the tax law; The deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities shall be measured at the tax rate applicable to the period during which the assets are expected to be recovered or the liabilities are expected to be settled. The Company shall review the carrying amount of deferred income tax assets on each balance sheet date. The current income tax and deferred income tax shall be recorded into the current profit and loss as income tax expense or income, except for the income tax generated from the enterprise merger, transactions or events directly recognized in the owner's equity. 5. 34. Lease (1) Accounting treatment of operating lease a. The Company records rents of leased assets into current expense using straight line method in each period of the lease term including rent-free period. Initial direct expenses incurred are recorded into current expense. Contingent rents are recorded into current profit or loss when occur. When the lessor bears the leasehold expenses which shall be borne by the Company, the expenses shall be deducted from total rents and the residual rent is recognized into current profit or loss in each period of the lease term. b. The rents arising from leasing assets shall be recorded into rent revenue using straight line method in each period of the lease term including rent-free period. Initial direct expenses incurred are recorded into current expense. If the amount is large, it shall be capitalized and recorded into current income in installment in the period of lease term according to the same recognition base of rent revenue. When the lessee bears the leasehold expenses which shall be borne by the Company, the expenses shall be deducted from total rents and the residual rent is amortized in each period of the lease term. (2) Accounting treatment of finance lease a. As the lessee, it recognizes the lower of fair value of lease asset and minimum lease payment at the beginning day of the lease as the initial value of the asset leased in and the minimum lease payment as long-term payable, the difference as unrealized finance expense. Unrealized finance expense is amortized in the period during the lease term and recognized as current finance expenses using actual effective rate method. b. As the lessor, it recognizes the difference between the total of minimum lease amount received and residual amount not guaranteed and the present value of that as unrealized finance income. It recognizes unrealized finance income as rent revenue in the period of lease term when the Company receives rent. The initial direct expense related to the lease transaction shall be recorded in the initial recognition of finance lease receivable and be deducted from recognized income in the period of lease term. 5. 35 Income tax expense The Company’s income tax is calculated in the balance sheet liability method. The Company recognized deferred tax assets when both of the following conditions are met: (1) Temporary differences are very likely to reverse in foreseeable future; (2) It is very likely in the future that the taxable income amount can be obtained and used to offset the deductible temporary differences, which is capped at the taxable income amount that is very likely to obtain. On the balance sheet date, the current income tax liabilities (or assets) formed in the current period and previous periods are measured at the expected income tax amount payable (or returnable) calculated according to tax laws. For deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities, in accordance with tax law, they shall be measured at the applicable tax rate during the period of expected recovery of such assets or satisfaction of such liabilities. On the balance sheet date, the Company reviews the carrying values of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities. The Company’s current income tax and deferred tax will be treated as income tax expenses or income, except for income tax from business combinations or transactions or matters recognized directly in owners’ equity. 5. 36 Changes in significant accounting policies and accounting estimates 5.36.1.
