(II) Performance drivers (Cont’d)
3. Focus on principal activities to achieve perfect complementary pulp and paper production capacity
The paper making industry is a large-scale industry with large inflows and outflows. Whoever controls the rawmaterials has the market initiative. As the chemical wood pulp projects of Huanggang Chenming and ShouguangMeilun commence production, the Company currently has three major pulp mills in Zhanjiang, Huanggang andShouguang. It has become the first domestic paper making enterprise to have fully complementary pulp andpaper production capacity, and has absolute competitiveness in terms of cost.As environmental protection inspections by the National Development and Reform Commission and the Ministryof Environment become a long-term and common practice, and environmental protection production restrictionpolicies are implemented based on classification and hierarchy, import quotas for waste paper continue to tighten.Against the backdrop of the waste paper import ban which will be implemented by the end of 2020, the forestry,pulp and paper integration strategy of the Company starts to work gradually. However, at present, the advantagesof the Company’s self-produced pulp have not been fully utilised, and there is still much scope and potential fordevelopment. As the market price of wood pulp gradually rebounds, the core advantages of the Company’s pulpand paper balance will be further brought into play, and corporate efficiency will be greatly improved.

IV Discussion and Analysis of Operations
I. OverviewDuring the reporting period, the paper making industry was greatly affected by the epidemic. The overseas epidemic outbreaksuppressed the overseas demand for paper products. In addition, the domestic demand for paper had been sluggish sincethe epidemic. The downward pressure on the prices of major paper types had increased. There was a significant decline in theeconomic benefit of the paper making industry as a whole.Wuhan Chenming and Huanggang Chenming, subsidiaries of the Company, were at the centre of the epidemic. Theirsuspension of production to fight against the epidemic affected the overall performance of the Company to a certain extent.However, other major production bases of the Company not only did their best to prevent and control the epidemic, but alsoachieved production at close to full capacity, gradually demonstrating the benefits of pulp and paper integration. Variousoperating indicators improved during the first half of the year as compared to the corresponding period of last year, includingcompleting pulp production of 1.66 million tonnes and machine-made paper production of 2.75 million tonnes, representing ayear-on-year increase of 59.70% and 27.90% respectively; achieving revenue of RMB13.6 billion, representing a year-on-yearincrease of 1.88%; and achieving net profit of RMB516 million, steadily increasing from the corresponding period of last year.In the second half of the year, with the epidemic further under control, the economy is expected to gradually regain its vitality,market demand will gradually rebound, and the prices of the Company’s major paper types will steadily rise. Coupled with thegradual recovery of wood pulp market prices, the core advantage of pulp and paper balance of the Company will be furtherbrought into play. The performance of the Company will significantly improve with the recovery of the national economy andmarket conditions.II. Analysis of principal operationsPlease see“I.

INTERIM REPORT 2020
IV Discussion and Analysis of Operations
X. Risk exposures of the Company and the measures to be taken
1. Macroeconomic risk
Paper making industry is a basic raw materials industry, with particularly significant cyclicality, and its prosperity ispositively correlated with macroeconomic trends. Since the first half of the year, the epidemic has affected the growth ofthe national economy, and weak consumer demand in the market has directly affected the profitability of the Company.Hence, following the principles of scientific development and quality and efficiency enhancement, the Company willcomprehensively improve its industrial structure and regional layout through incorporation of smart technology into itsindustrial activities. The Company will emphasise on the development of leading businesses including pulp productionand paper making, so as to construct an efficient industrial system with synergies, making use of cost advantages tosteadily address to the crises.
2. Market fluctuation risk
With the rapid growth of the national economy, economic globalisation and China’s accession to the WTO, China’spaper making industry has been facing increasingly fierce competition. Leveraging on the strength and capitalaccumulated over the years, domestic enterprises have further expanded their size and improved their technologicallevels and product quality. Well-known paper making enterprises overseas have also directly set up production basesin China through sole proprietorship or joint ventures so as to participate in the domestic market competition by virtueof their advantages in size and technology. Besides, the Sino-US trade war in recent years has also had effect on theexports of the Company to a certain extent.Hence, the Company will strive to enhance the quality of paper products and achieve the target of establishing a layoutfor high-end paper industry so as to increase the proportion of high-end paper. In recent years, the Company has beenexpanding its business size while optimising its product mix and has set up a few production lines for high-end paper.A diversified and high-end product mix enables the Company to spread market risk and strengthen the resistancetowards market volatility. Besides, as high-end products have better profit margins, the Company can increase theproportion of high-end products through consistent improvement in product mix, thereby enhancing its profitability andcomprehensive competitiveness.
3. Risk of price fluctuation of raw materials
Wood pulp is a major raw material in the Company. The market price of wood pulp fluctuates significantly. The marketprice fluctuation of raw material has significantly affected the production costs of the Company. In addition to intensifiedmarket competition resulting from surging capacity in the industry in recent years, the increases in prices of a numberof paper products were not in line with the increases in prices of raw materials. The market price fluctuation of rawmaterials will have an impact on the performance of the Company.For this purpose, the Company adheres to the development path of“forestry, pulp and paper integration”. With theoperation commencement of the Huanggang Chenming and Shouguang Meilun chemical wood pulp projects, theCompany currently has three pulp mills in Zhanjiang, Huanggang and Shouguang, the largest wood pulp productioncapacity in China. With production capacity of more than 4.3 million tonnes, it is the first integrated forestry, pulp andpaper enterprise in China with self-sufficiency in wood pulp and perfect complementary pulp and paper productioncapacity. In the future, the gross profit rate of its products will increase significantly, and its anti-risk capability will alsobe effectively enhanced.

X. Risk exposures of the Company and the measures to be taken (Cont’d)
4. Risk of change in environmental protection policies
China has been raising the standards for environmental protection in recent years. More stringent environmentalprotection policies have been implemented in the paper making industry with successive implementation ofenvironmental inspections and licensing system for pollutant discharge. A multi-pronged approach has been adoptedto promote industrial restructuring, and the paper making industry has entered into an important transitional period ofdevelopment. A higher emission standard is bound to increase the environmental protection costs in the industry and ahigh entry standard may result in the slowdown of scale expansion.In recent years, the Company and its subsidiaries have invested more than RMB8 billion to construct the pollutiontreatment facilities including the alkali recovery system, middle water treatment system, middle water reuse system,white water recovery system and black liquor comprehensive utilisation system. The environmental indicators of theCompany rank high in the country and in the world. At present, the Company adopts the world’s most advanced“ultrafiltration membrane+reverse osmosis membrane”technology to complete the reclaimed water recycling membranetreatment project. The reclaimed water recycle rate reaches more than 75%. The reclaimed water quality meets drinkingwater standards, which can save fresh water every day 170,000 cubic metres.
5. Risk on financial leasing business
The Company may suffer from loss if the lessees of its financial leasing business cannot make full rental payment ontime due to any reason. Although the risk of such rental being unrecoverable is minimal, the Company will also makebad debt provision as required under its accounting policy. If such amounts cannot be recovered on time, the Companymay be exposed to risk of bad debts.The stringent risk management measures of Chenming Leasing provide comprehensive risk prevention and controlfor its projects. Besides, its clients are mostly state-owned enterprises and government platforms, with strong riskresistance and low risk of default. In addition, the financial leasing company has been continuously reducing the scale ofthe financial leasing business in recent years, adhering to the policy of“continuous reduction”.

√ Applicable Not applicable
Jiangxi Chenming adjusted its water treatment technique, refined dosing operation, increased sludge press quality, andestablished, among others, monitoring response mechanism for water quantity and water standard at the middle watersection designed to respond to changes in BTMP ingredient ratio and load. As a result, Jiangxi Chenming proved qualifiedon all indicators during spontaneous sampling inspections conducted by Nanchang Ecological Environment Bureau and theenvironmental monitor station as well as a scheduled sampling inspection conducted by a third party. Based on such results,Nanchang Ecological Environment Bureau determined that the rectification for out-of-limit waste water (SS standard) ofJiangxi Chenming had been completed.After Zhanjiang Chenming discovered that water pollutants flowed outside its factory, it immediately suspended the cleaningof the reservoir and shut down the production system of the section where the green liquid tank was located. Meanwhile,emergency measures were initiated to prevent the continuous outflow of water pollutants within a very short time. The waterpollutants trapped in the factory were recycled to the sewage treatment system and the rainwater gutter was thoroughlycleaned. After the implementation of the above measures, when the relevant department conducted a-sampling inspectionagain in the water area connected to the rainwater discharge outlet the next day, the relevant indicators met the nationalstandards, and the rectification measures achieved good results.XI.

5. Accounting treatment of business combinations under common control and not under common control
Business combinations refer to the transactions or events in which two or more separate enterprises merged as a singlereporting entity. Business combinations are divided into business combinations under common control and not undercommon control.
(1) Business combination under common control
A business combination involving enterprises under common control is a business combination in which all of thecombining enterprises are ultimately controlled by the same party or parties before and after the combination,and that control is not transitory. The party that, on the combination date, obtains control of another enterpriseparticipating in the combination is the absorbing party, while that other enterprise participating in the combinationis a party being absorbed. The combination date is the date on which the absorbing party effectively obtainscontrol of the party being absorbed.Assets and liabilities obtained by the absorbing party are measured at their carrying amount at the combinationdate as recorded by the party being merged. The difference between the carrying amount of the net assetsobtained and the carrying amount of the consideration paid for the combination (or the aggregate nominal value ofshares issued as consideration) is charged to the capital reserve (share capital premium). If the capital reserve (sharecapital premium) is not sufficient to absorb the difference, any excess shall be adjusted against retained earnings.Cost incurred by the absorbing party that is directly attributable to the business combination shall be charged toprofit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.
(2) Business combination not under common control
A business combination not involving enterprises under common control is a business combination in whichall of the combining enterprises are not ultimately controlled by the same party or parties before and after thecombination. For a business combination not involving enterprises under common control, the party that, on theacquisition date, obtains control of another enterprise participating in the combination is the acquirer, while thatother enterprise participating in the combination is the acquiree. The acquisition date is the date on which theacquirer effectively obtains control of the acquiree.For business combination involving entities not under common control, the cost of a business combination is theaggregate of the fair values, on the date of acquisition, of assets given, liabilities incurred or assumed, and equityinstruments issued by the acquirer to be paid by the acquirer, in exchange for control of the acquire plus agencyfee such as audit, legal service and evaluation consultation and other management fees charged to the profit orloss for the period when incurred. Transaction cost attributable to equity or debt securities issued by the acquireras consideration is included in the initial costs. Contingent consideration involved is charged to the combinationcost at its fair value on the acquisition date, in the event that adjustment on the contingent consideration isrequired as a result of new or additional evidence in relation to circumstances existed on the acquisition dateemerges within 12 months from the acquisition date, the combination goodwill shall also be adjusted. Thecombination cost incurred by the acquirer and the identifiable net assets acquired from the combination aremeasured at their fair values on the acquisition date. Where the cost of a business combination exceeds theacquirer’s interest in the fair value of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets on the acquisition date, the differenceis recognised as goodwill. Where the cost of a business combination is less than the acquirer’s interest in thefair value of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets, the acquirer shall first reassess the measurement of the fairvalue of the acquiree’s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities and the measurement of the cost ofcombination. If after such reassessment the cost of combination is still less than the acquirer’s interest in the fairvalue of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets, the difference is charged to profit or loss for the period.

’d)In relation to the deductible temporary difference acquired from the acquiree, which was not recognised asdeferred tax assets due to non-fulfilment of the recognition criteria at the date of the acquisition, if new orfurther information that is obtained within 12 months after the acquisition date indicates that related conditionsat the acquisition date already existed, and that the implementation of the economic benefits brought by thedeductible temporary difference of the acquiree can be expected, the relevant deferred tax assets shall berecognised and goodwill shall be deducted. When the amount of goodwill is less than the deferred tax assets thatshall be recognised, the difference shall be recognised in the profit or loss of the period. Except for the abovecircumstances, deferred tax assets in relation to business combination are recognised in the profit or loss of theperiod.For combination of business not under common control achieved by several transactions, these severaltransactions will be judged whether they belong to“transactions in a basket”in accordance with the judgementstandards on“transactions in a basket”as set out in the Notice of the Ministry of Finance on Issuing AccountingStandards for Business Enterprises Interpretation No. 5 (Cai Kuai [2012] No. 19) and Rule of 51 to“AccountingStandard for Business Enterprises No. 33 – Consolidated Financial Statements”. If they belong to“transactions ina basket”, they are accounted for with reference to the descriptions as set out in the previous paragraphs of thissection and Note V. 17“Long-term equity investments”, and if they do not belong to“transactions in a basket”,they are accounted for in separate financial statements and consolidated financial reports:
In separate financial statements, the initial equity investment cost is the aggregate of the carrying amount of theequity investment in the acquiree held prior to the acquisition date and the investment cost newly added as at theacquisition date. In respect of any other comprehensive income attributable to the equity interest in the acquireeprior to the acquisition date, other comprehensive income is accounted for on the same accounting treatmentas direct disposal of relevant asset or liability by the acquiree at the time of disposal (i.e. to be transferred toinvestment income for the period, except for the changes arising from remeasuring net assets or net liabilities ofdefined benefit plan using the equity method attributable to the acquiree).In consolidated financial statements, the equity interest in the acquiree held prior to the acquisition date isremeasured at fair value as at the acquisition date, and the difference between the fair value and the carryingamount is recognised as investment income for the current period. In respect of any other comprehensive incomeattributable to the equity interest in the acquiree held prior to the acquisition date, other comprehensive income isaccounted for on the same accounting treatment as direct disposal of relevant asset or liability by the acquiree (i.e.to be transferred to investment income at the acquisition date, except for the changes arising from remeasuringnet assets or net liabilities of defined benefit plan using the equity method attributable to the acquiree) istransferred to investment income in the period of the acquisition date.

(1) Scope of consolidation
The scope of consolidation of the consolidated financial statements is determined on the basis of control. Theterm“control”refers to the fact that the Company has power over the investee and is entitled to variable returnsfrom its involvement with the investee and the ability to use its power over the investee to affect the amount ofthose returns. A subsidiary is an entity controlled by the Company (including an enterprise, a separable part of aninvestee, a structured entity, etc.).
(2) Basis for preparation of the consolidated financial statements
The consolidated financial statements are prepared by the Company based on the financial statements of theCompany and its subsidiaries and other relevant information. In preparing the consolidated financial statements,the accounting policies and accounting periods of the Company and its subsidiaries shall be consistent, andintra-company significant transactions and balances are eliminated.A subsidiary and its business acquired through a business combination involving entities under common controlduring the reporting period shall be included in the scope of the consolidation of the Company from the dateof being controlled by the ultimate controlling party, and its operating results and cash flows from the date ofbeing controlled by the ultimate controlling party are included in the consolidated income statement and theconsolidated cash flow statement, respectively.For a subsidiary and its business acquired through a business combination involving entities not under commoncontrol during the reporting period, its income, expenses and profits are included in the consolidated incomestatement, and cash flows are included in the consolidated cash flow statement from the acquisition date to theend of the reporting period.The shareholders’equity of the subsidiaries that is not attributable to the Company is presented undershareholders’equity in the consolidated balance sheet as minority interest. The portion of net profit or loss ofsubsidiaries for the period attributable to minority interest is presented in the consolidated income statementunder the“profit or loss of minority interest”. When the amount of loss attributable to the minority shareholders ofa subsidiary exceeds the minority shareholders’ portion of the opening balance of owners’equity of the subsidiary,the excess amount shall be allocated against minority interest.
(3) Accounting treatment for loss of control over subsidiaries
For the loss of control over a subsidiary due to disposal of a portion of the equity investment or other reasons,the remaining equity is measured at fair value on the date when the control is lost. The difference arising fromthe sum of consideration received for disposal of equity interest and the fair value of remaining equity interestover the sun of the share of the carrying amount of net assets of the former subsidiary calculated continuouslyfrom the purchase date based on the shareholding percentage before disposal and the goodwill is recognised asinvestment income in the period when the control is lost.Other comprehensive income related to equity investment in the former subsidiary shall be transferred to currentprofit or loss at the time when the control is lost, except for other comprehensive income arising from changes innet assets or net liabilities due to remeasurement of defined benefit plan by the investee.

(2) Classification and measurement of financial assets
The Group classifies the financial assets according to the business model for managing the financial assets andcharacteristics of the contractual cash flows as follows: financial assets measured at amortised cost, financialassets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, and financial assets measured at fair valuethrough profit or loss.Financial assets measured at amortised cost
A financial asset is measured at amortised cost if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designatedat fair value through other comprehensive income:
The Group’s business model for managing such financial assets is to collect contractual cash flows;The contractual terms of the financial asset stipulate that cash flows generated on specific dates are solelypayments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.Subsequent to initial recognition, such financial assets are measured at amortised cost using the effective interestmethod. A gain or loss on a financial asset that is measured at amortised cost and is not part of a hedgingrelationship shall be recognised in profit or loss for the current period when the financial asset is derecognised,amortised using the effective interest method or with impairment recognised.
Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive incomeA financial asset is classified as measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if it meets both of thefollowing conditions and is not designated at fair value through profit or loss:
The Group’s business model for managing such financial assets is achieved both by collecting collect contractualcash flows and selling such financial assets;The contractual terms of the financial asset stipulate that cash flows generated on specific dates are solelypayments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.Subsequent to initial recognition, such financial assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Interest calculatedusing the effective interest method, impairment losses or gains and foreign exchange gains and losses arerecognised in profit or loss for the current period, and other gains or losses are recognised in other comprehensiveincome. On derecognition, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in other comprehensive income isreclassified from other comprehensive income to profit or loss.

’d)Financial assets measured at fair value through profit or lossThe Group classifies the financial assets other than those measured at amortised cost and measured at fair valuethrough other comprehensive income as financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss. Uponinitial recognition, the Group irrevocably designates certain financial assets that are required to be measured atamortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income as financial assets measured at fair valuethrough profit or loss in order to eliminate or significantly reduce accounting mismatch.Upon initial recognition, such financial assets are measured at fair value. Except for those held for hedgingpurposes, gains or losses (including interests and dividend income) arising from such financial assets arerecognised in the profit or loss for the current period.The business model for managing financial assets refers to how the Group manages its financial assets in order togenerate cash flows. That is, the Group’s business model determines whether cash flows will result from collectingcontractual cash flows, selling financial assets or both. The Group determines the business model for managingfinancial assets on the basis of objective facts and specific business objectives for managing financial assetsdetermined by key management personnel.The Group assesses the characteristics of the contractual cash flows of financial assets to determine whetherthe contractual cash flows generated by the relevant financial assets on a specific date are solely payments ofprincipal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. The principal refers to the fair value of the financialassets at the initial recognition. Interest includes consideration for the time value of money, for the credit riskassociated with the principal amount outstanding during a particular period of time and for other basic lendingrisks, costs and profits. In addition, the Group evaluates the contractual terms that may result in a change in thetime distribution or amount of contractual cash flows from a financial asset to determine whether it meets therequirements of the above contractual cash flow characteristics.All affected financial assets are reclassified on the first day of the first reporting period following the change in thebusiness model where the Group changes its business model for managing financial assets; otherwise, financialassets shall not be reclassified after initial recognition.Financial assets other than accounts receivable without a significant financing component are measured at fairvalue upon initial recognition. For financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss, relevant transactioncosts are directly recognised in profit or loss for the current period. For other categories of financial assets,relevant transaction costs are included in the amount initially recognised. Accounts receivable without significantfinancing component are initially recognised based on the transaction price expected to be entitled by the Group.

(3) Classification and measurement of financial liabilities
At initial recognition, financial liabilities of the Group are classified as financial liabilities measured at fair valuethrough profit or loss and financial liabilities measured at amortised cost. For financial liabilities not classifiedas measured at fair value through profit or loss, relevant transaction costs are included in the amount initiallyrecognised.Financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or lossFinancial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss comprise held-for-trading financial liabilities andfinancial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss upon initial recognition. Such financial liabilitiesare subsequently measured at fair value, and the gains or losses from the change in fair value and the dividend orinterest expenses related to the financial liabilities are included in the profit or loss of the current period.Financial liabilities measured at amortised costOther financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method,and the gains or losses arising from derecognition or amortisation are recognised in profit or loss for the currentperiod.
Classification between financial liabilities and equity instruments
A financial liability is a liability if:
it has a contractual obligation to pay in cash or other financial assets to other parties.it has a contractual obligation to exchange financial assets or financial liabilities under potential adverse
condition with other parties. it is a non-derivative instrument contract which will or may be settled with the entity’s own equityinstruments, and the entity will deliver a variable number of its own equity instruments according to suchcontract. it is a derivative instrument contract which will or may be settled with the entity’s own equity instruments,except for a derivative instrument contract that exchanges a fixed amount of cash or other financial assetwith a fixed number of its own equity instruments.Equity instruments are any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting allof its liabilities.If the Group cannot unconditionally avoid the performance of a contractual obligation by paying cash or deliveringother financial assets, the contractual obligation meets the definition of financial liabilities.Where a financial instrument must or may be settled with the Group’s own equity instruments, the Group’s ownequity instruments used to settle such instrument should be considered as to whether it is as a substitute for cashor other financial assets or for the purpose of enabling the holder of the instrument to be entitled to the remaininginterest in the assets of the issuer after deducting all of its liabilities. For the former, it is a financial liability of theGroup; for the latter, it is the Group’s own equity instruments.

(4) Derivative financial instruments
The Group’s derivative financial instruments are mainly forward foreign exchange contracts, which are initiallyrecognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently measured at theirfair value. A derivative financial instrument is recognised as an asset when the fair value is positive and as aliability when the fair value is negative. Any gain or loss arising from changes in fair value and not complying withthe accounting requirements on hedging shall be recognised in profit or loss for current period.
(5) Fair value of financial instruments
The methods for determining the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities are set out in Note V. 10.
(6) Impairment of financial assets
The Group makes provision for impairment based on expected credit losses (ECLs) on the following items:
Financial assets measured at amortised cost;Debt investments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income;
Measurement of ECLsECLs are the weighted average of credit losses of financial instruments weighted by the risk of default. Creditlosses refer to the difference between all contractual cash flows receivable according to the contract anddiscounted according to the original effective interest rate and all cash flows expected to be received, i.e. thepresent value of all cash shortages.The Group takes into account reasonable and well-founded information such as past events, current conditionsand forecasts of future economic conditions, and calculates the probability-weighted amount of the present valueof the difference between the cash flows receivable from the contract and the cash flows expected to be receivedweighted by the risk of default.The Group measures ECLs of financial instruments at different stages. If the credit risk of the financial instrumentdid not increase significantly upon initial recognition, it is at the first stage, and the Group makes provision forimpairment based on the ECLs within the next 12 months; if the credit risk of a financial instrument increasedsignificantly upon initial recognition but has not yet incurred credit impairment, it is at the second stage, and theGroup makes provision for impairment based on the lifetime ECLs of the instrument; if the financial instrumentincurred credit impairment upon initial recognition, it is at the third stage, and the Group makes provision forimpairment based on the lifetime ECLs of the instrument.For financial instruments with low credit risk on the balance sheet date, the Group assumes that the credit risk didnot increase significantly upon initial recognition, and makes provision for impairment based on the ECLs withinthe next 12 months.

’d)Measurement of ECLs(Cont’d)
Lifetime ECLs represent the ECLs resulting from all possible default events over the expected life of a financialinstrument. The 12-month ECLs are the ECLs resulting from possible default events on a financial instrumentwithin 12 months (or a shorter period if the expected life of the financial instrument is less than 12 months) afterthe balance sheet date, and is a portion of lifetime ECLs.The maximum period to be considered when estimating ECLs is the maximum contractual period over which theGroup is exposed to credit risk, including renewal options.For the financial instruments at the first and second stages and with low credit risks, the Group calculates theinterest income based on the book balance and the effective interest rate before deducting the impairmentprovisions. For financial instruments at the third stage, interest income is calculated based on the amortised costafter deducting impairment provisions made from the book balance and the effective interest rate.For bills receivable, accounts receivable and contract assets, regardless of whether there is a significant financingcomponent, the Group always makes provision for impairment at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs.When the Group is unable to assess the information of ECLs for an individual financial asset at a reasonable cost,it classifies bills receivable and accounts receivable into portfolios based on the credit risk characteristics, andcalculates the ECLs on a portfolio basis.

(6) Impairment of financial assets (Cont
’d)Assessment of significant increase in credit risk
In assessing whether the credit risk of a financial instrument has increased significantly upon initial recognition,the Group compares the risk of default of the financial instrument at the balance sheet date with that at the dateof initial recognition to determine the relative change in risk of default within the expected lifetime of the financialinstrument.In determining whether the credit risk has increased significantly upon initial recognition, the Group considersreasonable and well-founded information, including forward-looking information, which can be obtained withoutunnecessary extra costs or efforts. Information considered by the Group includes:
The debtor’s failure to make payments of principal and interest on their contractually due dates;An actual or expected significant deterioration in a financial instrument’s external or internal credit rating (if any);An actual or expected significant deterioration in the operating results of the debtor;Existing or expected changes in the technological, market, economic or legal environment that have a significantadverse effect on the debtor’s ability to meet its obligation to the Group.Depending on the nature of the financial instruments, the Group assesses whether there has been a significantincrease in credit risk on either an individual basis or a collective basis. When the assessment is performed on acollective basis, the financial instruments are grouped based on their common credit risk characteristics, such aspast due information and credit risk ratings.The Group determines that the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly if it is more than 30 dayspast due.
Credit-impaired financial assets
At balance sheet date, the Group assesses whether financial assets measured at amortised cost and debtinvestments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income are credit-impaired. A financial asset iscredit-impaired when one or more events that have an adverse effect on the estimated future cash flows of thefinancial asset have occurred. Evidence that a financial asset is credit-impaired includes the following observableevents:
Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or debtor;A breach of contract by the debtor, such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal payments;For economic or contractual reasons relating to the debtor’s financial difficulty, the Group having granted to thedebtor a concession that would not otherwise consider;It becoming probable that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation;The disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties of the issuer ordebtor.

Presentation of provisions for ECLsECLs are remeasured at each balance sheet date to reflect changes in the financial instrument’s credit risk uponinitial recognition. Any change in the ECL amount is recognised as an impairment gain or loss in profit or loss forthe current period. For financial assets measured at amortised cost, the provisions of impairment is deductedfrom the carrying amount of the financial assets presented in the balance sheet; for debt investments at fair valuethrough other comprehensive income, the Group makes provisions of impairment in other comprehensive incomewithout reducing the carrying amount of the financial asset.Write-offsThe book balance of a financial asset is directly written off to the extent that there is no realistic prospect ofrecovery of the contractual cash flows of the financial asset (either partially or in full). Such write-off constitutesderecognition of such financial asset. This is generally the case when the Group determines that the debtor doesnot have assets or sources of income that could generate sufficient cash flows to repay the amounts subject tothe write-off. However, financial assets that are written off could still be subject to enforcement activities in orderto comply with the Group’s procedures for recovery of amounts due.If a write-off of financial assets is later recovered, the recovery is credited to profit or loss in the period in whichthe recovery occurs.
(7) Transfer of financial assets
Transfer of financial assets refers to the transfer or delivery of financial assets to another party other than theissuer of such financial assets (the transferee).If the Group transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset to the transferee,the financial asset shall be derecognised. If the Group retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownershipof a financial asset, the financial asset shall not be derecognised.If the Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset,it accounts for the transaction as follows: if the Group does not retain control, it derecognises the financial assetand recognises any resulting assets or liabilities; if the control over the financial asset is not waived, the relevantfinancial asset is recognised according to the extent of its continuing involvement in the transferred financial assetand the relevant liability is recognised accordingly.
(8) Offset of financial assets and financial liabilities
If the Group owns the legitimate rights of offsetting the recognised financial assets and financial liabilities, whichare enforceable currently, and the Group plans to realise the financial assets or to clear off the financial liabilitieson a net amount basis or simultaneously, the net amount of financial assets and financial liabilities shall bepresented in the balance sheet upon offsetting. Otherwise, financial assets and financial liabilities are presentedseparately in the balance sheet without offsetting.

(1) Classification of inventories
Inventories of the Group mainly include raw materials, work in progress, goods in stock, development productsand consumable biological assets, etc.
(2) Pricing of inventories dispatched
Inventories of the Group are measured at their actual cost when obtained. Cost of raw materials, goods in stockand others will be calculated with weighted average method when being dispatched.Consumable biological assets refer to biological assets held-for-sale which include growing timber. Consumablebiological assets without a stock are stated at historical cost at initial recognition, and subsequently measuredat fair value when there is a stock. Changes in fair values shall be recognised as profit or loss in the currentperiod. The cost of self-planting, self-cultivating consumable biological assets is the necessary expensesdirectly attributable to such assets prior to canopy closure, including borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation.Subsequent expenses such as maintenance cost incurred after canopy closure shall be included in profit or lossfor the current period.

The realisable value ofinventories shall be determined on the basis of definite evidence, purpose of holding the inventories and effect ofafter-balance-sheet-date events.At the balance sheet date, provision for inventory impairment is made when the cost is higher than the netrealisable value. The Group usually make provision for inventory impairment based on categories of inventories. Atthe balance sheet date, in case the factors causing inventory impairment no longer exists, the original provision forinventory impairment shall be reversed.

The low-value consumables of the Group are amortised when issued for use.Packaging materials for turnover are amortised when issued for use.
15. Held for sale and discontinued operations
(1) Classification and measurement of non-current assets or disposal groups held for sale
A non-current asset or disposal group is classified as held for sale if its carrying amount will be recoveredprincipally through a sale transaction (including a non-monetary asset exchange with commercial substance)rather than through continuing use.The aforesaid non-current asset does not include the investment property subsequently measured at fair value,the biological assets measured at the net amount of the fair value deducting the sales expense, the assetsgenerated from remuneration, financial assets, deferred income tax assets and rights from insurance contract.A disposal group is a group of assets to be disposed of together as a whole by sale or other means in atransaction, and liabilities directly associated with those assets that will be transferred in the transaction. In certaincircumstances, the disposal group includes the goodwill acquired in the business combination.A non-current asset or a disposal group is classified as held for sale if it meets all of the following conditions: thenon-current asset or disposal group is available for immediate sale in its present condition subject only to termsthat are usual and customary for sales of such asset or disposal group; the sale is highly probable, i.e. a sale planhas been resolved and a firm purchase commitment has been obtained, and the sale is expected to be completedwithin one year. When the Group loses control of a subsidiary due to reasons such as disposal of investment ina subsidiary, regardless of whether the Group retains part of the equity investment after the disposal, when theinvestment in a subsidiary intended to be disposed of meets the conditions for classification as held for sale, theinvestment in a subsidiary is classified as held for sale as a whole in the separate financial statements, and allassets and liabilities of the subsidiary are classified as held for sale in the consolidated financial statements.

’d)When the non-current assets or disposal groups held for sale are initially measured or remeasured at the balancesheet date, the excess of the carrying amount over the net amount of the fair value less selling expenses isrecognised as asset impairment loss. For the amount of impairment loss recognised on disposal groups heldfor sale, the carrying amount of the goodwill of the disposal group shall be offset against first, and then beoffset against the carrying amount of non-current assets according to the proportion of the carrying amount ofnon-current assets.If the net amount of the fair value of the non-current assets or disposal groups held for sale less the sellingexpenses increases on the subsequent balance sheet date, the amount previously written down shall berecovered and reversed in the amount of asset impairment loss recognised after be classified as held for sale, andthe reversed amount shall be included in the current profit and loss. The carrying amount of goodwill written offshall not be reversed.Non-current assets held for sale and assets in disposal group held for sale are not depreciated or amortised.Interest and other expenses of a disposal group classified as held for sale continue to be recognised. For all orpart of an investment in an associate or a joint venture that is classified as held for sale, the part of being classifiedas held for sale shall cease to be accounted for using the equity method, while any retained portion (not classifiedas held for sale) shall continue to be accounted for using the equity method; The Group ceases to use the equitymethod from the date when the Group ceases to have significant influence over an associate or a joint venture.If a non-current asset or disposal group is classified as held for sale but subsequently no longer meets the criteriafor being classified as held for sale, the Group shall cease to classify it as held for sale and measure it at the lowerof:
the carrying amount of the asset or disposal group before being classified as held for sale is adjusted by the
depreciation, amortisation or impairment that would have been recognised if the asset or disposal grouphad not been classified as held for sale; recoverable amount.
(2) Discontinued operations
A discontinued operation is a component of the Group that either has been disposed of or is classified as held forsale, and can be distinguished separately, and meets one of the following conditions:
The component represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations.The component is part of a related plan to dispose of a separate major line of business or geographical areaof operations. The component is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale.

For non-current assets and disposal groups held for sale that do not meet the definitionof discontinued operation, their impairment losses and reversal amounts and gains or losses are presented asprofit or loss from continuing operations. Operating profit or loss such as impairment loss and reversal amount ofdiscontinued operation and disposal gain or loss is presented as profit or loss from discontinued operation.Disposal groups that are intended to be closed for use rather than for sale and meet the conditions for thecomponents in the definition of discontinued operations are presented as discontinued operations from the dateof cessation of use.For the discontinued operations presented in the current period, the information originally presented as profitor loss from continuing operations in the current financial statements is re-presented as profit or loss fromdiscontinued operations in the comparable accounting period. If the discontinued operations no longer meetthe conditions for being classified of held-for-sale, the information originally presented as profit or loss fromdiscontinued operations in the current financial statements shall be re-presented as profit or loss from continuingoperations in the comparable accounting period.
16. Long-term receivables
The Company measures the impairment loss of long-term receivables at an amount equal to the ECLs in the next 12months or the lifetime ECLs, depending on whether its credit risk has significantly increased upon initial recognition.Other than the long-term receivables assessed individually for credit risks, long-term receivables are classified intodifferent groups based on their credit risk characteristics:

17. Long-term equity investments
Long-term equity investments include the equity investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates. Associatesof the Group are those investees that the Group imposes significant influence over.
(1) Determination of initial investment cost
Long-term equity investments acquired through business combinations: for a long-term equity investmentacquired through a business combination involving enterprises under common control, the investment cost shallbe the absorbing party’s share of the carrying amount of the owners’equity under the consolidated financialstatements of the ultimate controlling party on the date of combination. For a long-term equity investmentacquired through a business combination involving enterprises not under common control, the investment cost ofthe long-term equity investment shall be the cost of combination.Long-term equity investments acquired through other means: for a long-term equity investment acquired by cashpayment, the initial investment cost shall be the purchase cost actually paid; for a long-term equity investmentacquired by issuing equity securities, the initial investment cost shall be the fair value of equity securities issued.
(2) Subsequent measurement and method for profit or loss recognition
Investments in subsidiaries shall be accounted for using the cost method. Except for the investments which meetthe conditions of holding for sale, investments in associates and joint ventures shall be accounted for using theequity method.For a long-term equity investment accounted for using the cost method, the cash dividends or profits declared bythe investees for distribution shall be recognised as investment gains and included in profit or loss for the currentperiod, except the case of receiving the actual consideration paid for the investment or the declared but not yetdistributed cash dividends or profits which is included in the consideration.For a long-term equity investment accounted for using the equity method, where the initial investment costexceeds the investor’s interest in the fair value of the investee’s identifiable net assets at the acquisition date, noadjustment shall be made to the investment cost of the long-term equity investment. Where the initial investmentcost is less than the investor’s interest in the fair value of the investee’s identifiable net assets at the acquisitiondate, adjustment shall be made to the carrying amount of the long-term equity investment, and the difference shallbe charged to profit or loss for the current period.Under the equity method, investment gain and other comprehensive income shall be recognised based on theCompany’s share of the net profits or losses and other comprehensive income made by the investee, respectively.Meanwhile, the carrying amount of long-term equity investment shall be adjusted. The carrying amount oflong-term equity investment shall be reduced based on the Group’s share of profit or cash dividend distributedby the investee. In respect of the other movement of net profit or loss, other comprehensive income and profitdistribution of investee, the carrying amount of long-term equity investment shall be adjusted and included inthe capital reserves (other capital reserves). The Group shall recognise its share of the investee’s net profits orlosses based on the fair values of the investee’s individual separately identifiable assets at the time of acquisition,after making appropriate adjustments thereto according to the accounting policies and accounting periods of theGroup.

(2) Subsequent measurement and method for profit or loss recognition (Cont
’d)
For additional equity investment made in order to obtain significant influence or common control over investeewithout resulted in control, the initial investment cost under the equity method shall be the aggregate of fairvalue of previously held equity investment and additional investment cost on the date of transfer. The differencebetween the fair value and carrying amount of previously held equity investment on the date of transfer and theaccumulated change in fair value originally included in other comprehensive income shall be recognised in theprofit or loss for the current period under the equity method.In the event of loss of common control or significant influence over investee due to partial disposal of equityinvestment, the remaining equity interest after disposal shall be accounted for according to the AccountingStandard for Business Enterprises No. 22 – Recognition and measurement of Financial Instruments. The differencebetween its fair value and carrying amount shall be included in profit or loss for the current period. In respectof other comprehensive income recognised under previous equity investment using equity method, it shall beaccounted for in accordance with the same accounting treatment for direct disposal of relevant asset or liability byinvestee at the time when equity method was ceased to be used. Movement of other owners’equity related to theprevious equity investment shall be transferred to profit or loss for the current period.In the event of loss of control over investee due to partial disposal of equity investment, the remaining equityinterest which can apply common control or impose significant influence over the investee after disposal shall beaccounted for using equity method. Such remaining equity interest shall be treated as accounting for using equitymethod since it is obtained and adjustment was made accordingly. For the remaining equity interest which cannotapply common control or impose significant influence over the investee after disposal, it shall be accounted forusing the Accounting Standard for Business Enterprises No. 22 – Recognition and measurement of FinancialInstruments. The difference between its fair value and carrying amount as at the date of losing control shall beincluded in profit or loss for the current period.If the shareholding ratio of the Company is reduced due to the capital increase of other investors, and as a result,the Company loses the control of but still can apply common control or impose significant influence over theinvestee, the net asset increase due to the capital increase of the investee attributable to the Company shall berecognised according to the new shareholding ratio, and the difference with the original carrying amount of thelong-term equity investment corresponding to the shareholding ratio reduction part that should be carried forwardshall be recorded in the profit or loss for the current period; and then it shall be adjusted according to the newshareholding ratio as if equity method is used for accounting when acquiring the investment.In respect of the transactions between the Group and its associates and joint ventures, the share of unrealisedgain or loss arising from internal transactions shall be eliminated by the portion attributable to the Group.Investment gain shall be recognised accordingly. However, any unrealised loss arising from internal transactionsbetween the Group and an investee is not eliminated to the extent that the loss is impairment loss of thetransferred assets.(In case of using accounting policy options, the following disclosure should be added:
The Group’s long-term equity investments in associates and joint ventures, which are held indirectly by venturecapital institutions, mutual funds, trust companies or similar entities including investment-linked insurance funds,are measured at fair value and their changes are included in the profit or loss.)

(3) Basis for determining the common control and significant influence on the investee
Common control is the contractually agreed sharing of control over an arrangement, which relevant activities ofsuch arrangement must be decided by unanimously agreement from parties who share control. When determiningif there is any common control, it should first be identified if the arrangement is controlled by all the participantsor the group consisting of the participants, and then determined if the decision on the arranged activity can bemade only with the unanimous consent of the participants sharing the control. If all the participants or a groupof participants can only decide the relevant activities of certain arrangement through concerted action, it canbe considered that all the participants or a group of participants share common control on the arrangement. Ifthere are two or more participant groups that can collectively control certain arrangement, it does not constitutecommon control. When determining if there is any common control, the relevant protection rights will not be takeninto account.Significant influence is the power of the investor to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions ofan investee, but to fail to control or joint control the formulation of such policies together with other parties. Whendetermining if there is any significant influence on the investee, the influence of the voting shares of the investeeheld by the investor directly and indirectly and the potential voting rights held by the investor and other partieswhich are exercisable in the current period and converted to the equity of the investee, including the warrants,stock options and convertible bonds that are issued by the investee and can be converted in the current period,shall be taken into account.When the Company holds directly or indirectly through the subsidiary 20% (inclusive) to 50% of the voting sharesof the investee, it is generally considered to have significant influence on the investee, unless there is concreteevidence to prove that it cannot participate in the production and operation decision-making of the investee andcannot pose significant influence in this situation. When the Group owns less than 20% of the voting shares of theinvestee, it is generally considered that it has not significantly influenced on the investee, unless there is concreteevidence to prove that it can participate in the production and operation decision-making of the investee andcannot pose significant influence in this situation.

For the method for making impairment provision for the investment in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures,please refer to Note V. 25.
18. Investment property
Measurement of investment property
Measured by using the cost method
Investment property refers to real estate held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation, or both. The investment propertyof the Group includes leased land use rights, land use rights held for sale after appreciation, and leased buildings.The investment property of the Group is measured initially at cost upon acquisition, and subject to depreciation oramortisation in the relevant periods according to the relevant provisions on fixed assets or intangible assets.For the method for making impairment provision for the investment property adopted cost method for subsequentmeasurement, please refer to Note V. 25.When an investment property is sold, transferred, retired or damaged, the amount of proceeds on disposal of theproperty net of the carrying amount and related tax and surcharges is recognised in profit or loss for the current period.

19. Fixed assets
(1) Conditions for recognition of fixed assets
Fixed assets of the Group are tangible assets that are held for use in the production or supply of goods orservices, for rental to others, or for administrative purposes; and have a useful life of more than one accountingyear.Fixed assets are recognised only if the Company is very likely to receive economic benefits from the asset and itscost can be measured reliably.A fixed asset of the Group shall be initially measured at actual cost when acquired.
(2) Depreciation method of various types of fixed assets
The Group adopts the straight-line method for depreciation. Provision for depreciation will be started when thefixed asset reaches its expected usable state, and stopped when the fixed asset is derecognised or classified asa non-current asset held for sale. Without regard to the depreciation provision, the Group determines the annualdepreciation rate of various types of fixed assets by category, estimated useful lives and estimated residual valueof the fixed assets, as shown below:
Category

(3) The impairment test method and impairment provision method of the fixed assets are set out in Note V. 25.
(4) The Group will recheck the useful lives, estimated net residual value and depreciation method of the fixed assets
at the end of each year.When there is any difference between the useful lives estimate and the originally estimated value, the usefullives of the fixed asset shall be adjusted. When there is any difference between the estimated net residual valueestimate and the originally estimated value, the estimated net residual value of the fixed asset shall be adjusted.
(5) Overhaul expense
For the overhaul expense incurred by the Group during the regular inspection on the fixed assets, if there isconcrete evidence to prove that it meets the fixed asset recognition condition, it shall be included in the cost offixed asset; if it does not meet the fixed asset recognition condition, it shall be included in the profit or loss for thecurrent period. The depreciation of fixed assets shall be continued in the intervals of the regular overhaul of thefixed asset.

20. Construction in progress
Construction in progress of the Group is recognised based on the actual construction cost, including all necessaryexpenditures incurred for construction projects, capitalised borrowing costs for the construction in progress before ithas reached the working condition for its intended use, and other related expenses during the construction period.A construction in progress is reclassified to fixed assets when it has reached the working condition for its intended use.The method for impairment provision of construction in progress is set out in Note V. 25.
21. Borrowing costs
(1) Recognition principle for the capitalisation of the borrowing costs
The borrowing costs incurred by the Group directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or productionof a qualifying asset will be capitalised and included in the cost of relevant asset. Other borrowing costs will berecognised as expenses when incurred according to the incurred amount, and included in the profit or loss for thecurrent period. When the borrowing costs meet all the following conditions, capitalisation shall be started:
The capital expenditure has been incurred, which includes the expenditure incurred by paying cash,transferring non-cash assets or undertaking interest-bearing liabilities for acquiring, constructing orproducing the qualifying assets; The borrowing costs have been incurred;The acquisition, construction or production activity necessary for the asset to be ready for its intended useor sale has been started.
(2) Capitalisation period of borrowing costs
When a qualifying asset acquired, constructed or produced by the Group is ready for its intended use or sale,the capitalisation of the borrowing costs shall discontinue. The borrowing costs incurred after a qualifying assetis ready for its intended use or sale shall be recognised as expenses when incurred according to the incurredamount, and included in the profit or loss for the current period.Capitalisation of borrowing costs shall be suspended during periods in which the acquisition, construction orproduction of a qualifying asset is interrupted abnormally, when the interruption is for a continuous period of morethan 3 months. The capitalisation of the borrowing costs shall be continued in the normal interruption period.
(3) Calculation methods for capitalisation rate and capitalisation amount of the borrowing costs
Where funds are borrowed for a specific purpose, the amount of interest to be capitalised shall be the actualinterest expense incurred on that borrowing for the period less any bank interest earned from depositing theborrowed funds before being used into banks or any investment income on the temporary investment of thosefunds. Where funds are borrowed for general purpose, the Company shall determine the amount of interestto be capitalised on such borrowings by applying a capitalisation rate to the weighted average of the excessamounts of cumulative expenditures on the asset over and above the amounts of specific-purpose borrowings.The capitalisation rate shall be the weighted average of the interest rates applicable to the general-purposeborrowings.During the capitalisation period, exchange differences on a specific purpose borrowing denominated in foreigncurrency shall be capitalised. Exchange differences related to general-purpose borrowings denominated in foreigncurrency shall be included in profit or loss for the current period.

22. Biological assets
Consumable biological assets refer to biological assets held-not-for-sale, which include forest trees being grown.Consumable biological assets are stated at cost at initial recognition. The cost of self-planting, self-cultivating,self-breeding or self-farming consumable biological assets is the necessary expenses directly attributable to such assetsprior to canopy closure, including borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation. Subsequent expenses such as maintenanceincurred after canopy closure shall be included in profit or loss for the current period.The cost of consumable biological assets shall, at the time of harvest or disposal, be carried forward at carrying amountusing the batch averaging method.On the balance sheet date, consumable biological assets are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value,and the impairment provision for consumable biological assets is made using the same approach as that used for therecognition of impairment provision for inventories. In case the factors causing impairment no longer exists, the reducedamount shall be recovered and reversed in the provision amount originally provided for impairment. The reversedamount shall be recognised in profit or loss for the current period.
23. Right-of-use assets
(1) Conditions for recognition of right-of-use assets
Right-of-use assets of the Group are defined as the right of underlying assets in the lease term for the Group as alessee.Right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost at the commencement date of the lease. The cost includes theamount of the initial measurement of lease liability; lease payments made at or before the inception of the leaseless any lease incentives enjoyed; initial direct costs incurred by the Group as lessee; costs to be incurred indismantling and removing the underlying assets, restoring the site on which it is located or restoring the underlyingasset to the condition required by the terms and conditions of the lease incurred by the Group as lessee. Asa lessee, the Group recognises and measures the costs of dismantling and restoration in accordance with theAccounting Standard for Business Enterprises No. 13 – Contingencies. Subsequently, the lease liability is adjustedfor any remeasurement of the lease liability
(2) Depreciation method of right-of-use assets
The Group uses the straight-line method for depreciation. Where the Group, as a lessee, is reasonably certain toobtain ownership of the leased asset at the end of the lease term, such asset is depreciated over the remaininguseful life of the leased asset. Where ownership of the lease assets during the lease term cannot be reasonablydetermined, right-of-use assets are depreciated over the lease term or the remainder of useful lives of the leaseassets, whichever is shorter

24. Intangible assets
The intangible assets of the Group include land use rights, software and certificates of third party right.The intangible asset is initially measured at cost, and its useful life is determined upon acquisition. If the useful life isfinite, the intangible asset will be amortised over the estimated useful life using the amortisation method that can reflectthe estimated realisation of the economic benefits related to the asset, starting from the time when it is available for use.If it is unable to reliably determine the estimated realisation, straight-line method shall be adopted for amortisation. Theintangible assets with uncertain useful life will not be amortised.The amortisation methods for the intangible assets with finite useful life are as follows:
TypeUseful lifeMethod of amortisationLand use rights50-70Straight-line methodSoftware5-10Straight-line methodCertificates of third party right3Straight-line methodThe Group reviews the useful life and amortisation method of the intangible assets with finite useful life at the end ofeach year. If it is different from the previous estimates, the original estimates will be adjusted, and will be treated as achange in accounting estimate.If it is estimated on the balance sheet date that certain intangible asset can no longer bring future economic benefit tothe company, the carrying amount of the intangible asset will be entirely transferred into the profit or loss for the currentperiod.The impairment method for the intangible assets is set out in Note V. 25.
25. Asset impairment
Impairment of long-term equity investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures, investment property, fixedassets, construction in progress, intangible assets, goodwill and others (excluding inventories, deferred tax assets andfinancial assets) subsequently measured at cost is determined as follows:
The Group determines if there is any indication of asset impairment as at the balance sheet date. If there is any evidenceindicating that an asset may be impaired, recoverable amount shall be estimated for impairment test. Goodwill arisingfrom business combinations, intangible assets with an indefinite useful life and intangible assets not ready for use will betested for impairment annually, regardless of whether there is any indication of impairment.The recoverable amount of an asset is the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal and the present value of thefuture cash flows expected to be derived from the asset. The Group estimates the recoverable amount of an individualasset. If it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of the individual asset, the Group shall determine therecoverable amount of the asset group to which the asset belongs. The determination of an asset group is based onwhether major cash inflows generated by the asset group are independent of the cash inflows from other assets or assetgroups.

25. Asset impairment (Cont
’d)When the recoverable amount of an asset or an asset group is less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount isreduced to its recoverable amount. The reduction amount is charged to profit or loss and an impairment provision ismade accordingly.For the purpose of impairment test of goodwill, the carrying amount of goodwill acquired in a business combination isallocated to the relevant asset groups on a reasonable basis from the acquisition date; where it is difficult to allocateto the related asset groups, it is allocated to the combination of related asset groups. The related asset groups orcombination of asset groups are those which can benefit from the synergies of the business combination and are notlarger than the reportable segments identified by the Group.In the impairment test, if there is any indication that an asset group or a combination of asset groups related to goodwillmay be impaired, the Group first tests the asset group or set of asset groups excluding goodwill for impairment,calculates the recoverable amount and recognises the corresponding impairment loss. An impairment test is then carriedout on the asset group or combination of asset groups containing goodwill by comparing its carrying amount with itsrecoverable amount. If the recoverable amount is lower than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognised forgoodwill.An impairment loss recognised shall not be reversed in a subsequent period.
26. Long-term prepaid expenses
The long-term prepaid expenses incurred by the Group shall be recognised based on the actual cost, and evenlyamortised over the estimated benefit period. For the long-term prepaid expense that cannot benefit the subsequentaccounting periods, its value after amortisation shall be entirely included in the profit or loss for the current period.
27. Contract liabilities
A contract liability represents the Company’s obligation to transfer goods to a customer for which the Company hasreceived consideration (or an amount of consideration is due) from the customer. If the customer has already paidthe contract consideration before the Company transfers goods to the customer or the Company has obtained theunconditional collection right, the Company will recognise such amount received or receivable as contract liabilitiesat earlier of the actual payment by the customer or the amount payable becoming due. Contract assets and contractliabilities under the same contract are presented on a net basis, and contract assets and contract liabilities underdifferent contracts are not offset.
28. Employee benefits
(1) Scope of employee benefits
Employee benefits are all forms of considerations or compensation given by an entity in exchange for servicesrendered by employees or for the termination of employment. Employee benefits include short-term staffremuneration, post-employment benefits, termination benefits and other long-term employee benefits. Employeebenefits include benefits provided to employees’spouses, children, other dependants, survivors of the deceasedemployees or to other beneficiaries.Employee benefits are presented as“employee benefits payable”and“long-term employee benefits payable”inthe balance sheet, respectively, according to liquidity.

28. Employee benefits (Cont
’d)
(2) Short-term staff remuneration
Employee wages or salaries actually incurred, bonuses, and social insurance contributions such as medicalinsurance, work injury insurance, maternity insurance, and housing fund, contributed at the applicable benchmarksand rates, are recognised as a liability as the employees provide services, with a corresponding charge to profit orloss or included in the cost of assets where appropriate. Where the payment of liability is expected not to be fullysettled within 12 months after the end of the annual reporting period in which the employees render the relatedservices, and the financial impact would be material, these liabilities are measured at their discounted values.
(3) Post-employment benefits
Post-employment benefit plans include defined contribution plans and defined benefit plans. A definedcontribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which the Group pays fixed contributions into aseparate fund and the Group has no further obligations for payment. A defined benefit plan is a post-employmentbenefit plan other than a defined contribution plan.Defined contribution plansDefined contribution plans include basic pension insurance and unemployment insurance.During the accounting period in which an employee provides service, the amount payable calculated according tothe defined contribution plan is recognised as a liability and included in the profit or loss for the current period orthe cost of relevant assets.
(4) Termination benefits
When the Group provides termination benefits to employees, employee benefits liabilities arising from terminationbenefits are recognised in profit or loss for the current period at the earlier of the following dates: when the Groupcannot revoke unilaterally compensation for dismissal due to the cancellation of labour relationship plans andemployee redundant proposals; the Group recognises cost and expenses related to payment of compensation fordismissal and restructuring.For the early retirement plans, economic compensations before the actual retirement date were classified astermination benefits. During the period from the date of cease of render of services to the actual retirementdate, relevant wages and contribution to social insurance for the employees proposed to be paid are recognisedin profit or loss on a one-off basis. Economic compensation after the official retirement date, such as normalpension, is accounted for as post-employment benefits.
(5) Other long-term benefits
Other long-term employee benefits provided by the Group to employees that meet the conditions for definedcontribution plans are accounted for in accordance with the relevant provisions relating to defined contributionplans as stated above. If the conditions for defined benefit plans are met, the benefits shall accounted for inaccordance with the relevant provisions relating to defined benefit plans, but the“changes arising from theremeasurement of the net liabilities or net assets of the defined benefit plans”in the relevant employee benefitsshall be included in the current profit or loss or the relevant asset cost.

29. Provisions
Obligations pertinent to the contingencies which satisfy the following conditions are recognised as provisions:
(1) the obligation is a current obligation borne by the Group;
(2) it is likely that an outflow of economic benefits from the Group will be resulted from the performance of the
obligation; and
(3) the amount of the obligation can be reliably measured.
The provisions shall be initially measured based on the best estimate for the expenditure required for the performanceof the current obligation, after taking into account relevant risks, uncertainties, time value of money and other factorspertinent to the contingencies. If the time value of money has significant influence, the best estimates shall bedetermined after discounting the relevant future cash outflow. The Group reviews the carrying amount of the provisionson the balance sheet date and adjust the carrying amount to reflect the current best estimates.If all or some expenses incurred for settlement of recognised provisions are expected to be borne by the third party,the compensation amount shall, on a recoverable basis, be recognised as asset separately, and compensation amountrecognised shall not be more than the carrying amount of provisions.
30. Share-based payments
(1) Category of share-based payment
The Group’s share-based payment is equity-based.
(2) Fair value of equity instrument
For the existence of an active market for options and other equity instruments granted by the Group, the fair valueis determined at the active market quotations. For options and other equity instruments with no active market,option pricing model shall be used to estimate the fair value of the equity instruments. The following factors shallbe taken into account using option pricing models: A. the exercise price of the option, B. the validity of the option,C. the current market price of the share, D. the expected volatility of the share price, E. predicted dividend of theshare, and F. risk-free rate of the option within the validity period.
(3) Recognition of vesting of equity instrument based on the best estimate
During the waiting period at each balance sheet date, the Group shall make the best available estimate ofthe number of equity instruments expected to vest and shall revise that estimate, if necessary, if subsequentinformation indicates that the number of equity instruments expected to vest differs from previous estimates.On the vesting date, the entity shall revise the estimate to equal the number of equity instruments that ultimatelyvested.

(4) Accounting treatment of implementation, modification and termination of share-based payment
Equity-settled share-based payment is measured at the fair value of the equity instruments granted to employees.For the shares exercise immediately after the grant, the fair value of equity instrument at the grant date includedin the relevant costs or expenses and increase in capital reserve accordingly. Within the vesting period, it willrecognise the received service-related costs or expense and capital reserves for each reporting date based on thebest estimate of the number of vested equity instruments on the grant date of the equity instruments value. Afterthe vesting period, relevant costs or expenses and total shareholders’equity has been confirmed and will not beadjusted.When there is changes in Group’s share-based payment plans, if the modification increases the fair value of theequity instruments granted, corresponding recognition of service increase in accordance with the increase in thefair value of the equity instruments; if the modification increases the number of equity instruments granted, theincrease in fair value of the equity instruments is recognised as a corresponding increase in service achieved.Increase in the fair value of equity instruments refer to the difference between the fair values of the modified date.If the modification reduces the total fair value of shares paid or not conductive to the use of other employeesshare-based payment plans to modify the terms and conditions of service, it will continue to be accounted for inthe accounting treatment, as if the change had not occurred, unless the Group cancelled some or all of the equityinstruments granted.During the vesting period, if the cancelled equity instruments (except for failure to meet the conditions of thenon-market vesting conditions, such as length of service performance conditions or market conditions arecancelled) granted by the Group to cancel the equity instruments granted amount treated as accelerated vestingof the remaining period should be recognised immediately in profit or loss, while recognizing the capital reserve. Ifemployees or other parties can choose to meet non-vesting conditions but they are not met in the vesting period,the Group will treat them as cancelled equity instruments granted.
31. Preference shares, perpetual bonds and other financial instruments
(1) Classification of financial liabilities and equity instruments
Financial instruments issued by the Group are classified into financial assets, financial liabilities or equityinstruments on the basis of the substance of the contractual arrangements and the economic nature not onlyits legal form, together with the definition of financial asset, financial liability and equity instruments on initialrecognition.
(2) Accounting treatment of preference shares, perpetual bonds and other financial instruments
Financial instruments issued by the Group are initially recognised and measured in accordance with the financialinstrument standards; thereafter, interest or dividends are accrued on each balance sheet date and accounted forin accordance with relevant specific ASBEs, i.e. to determine the accounting treatment for interest expenditureor dividend distribution of the instrument based on the classification of the financial instrument issued. Forfinancial instruments classified as equity instruments, their interest expenses or dividend distributions are treatedas profit distribution of the Group, and their repurchases and cancellations are treated as changes in equity;for financial instruments classified as financial liabilities, their interest expenses or dividend distribution are inprinciple accounted for with reference to borrowing costs, and the gains or losses arising from their repurchasesor redemption are included in the profit or loss for the current period.For the transaction costs such as fees and commissions incurred by the Group for issuing financial instruments, ifsuch financial instruments are classified as debt instruments and measured at amortised cost, they are includedin the initial measured amount of the instruments issued; if such financial instruments are classified as equityinstruments, they are deducted from equity.

32. Revenue
(1) General principles
The Group recognises revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation in the contract, i.e. when the customerobtains control of the relevant goods or services.Where a contract has two or more performance obligations, the Group allocates the transaction price to eachperformance obligation based on the percentage of respective unit price of goods or services guaranteed byeach performance obligation, and recognises as revenue based on the transaction price that is allocated to eachperformance obligation.If one of the following conditions is fulfilled, the Group performs its performance obligation within a certain period;otherwise, it performs its performance obligation at a point of time:
when the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Group when theGroup performs its obligations under the contract;when the customer is able to control the goods in progress in the course of performance by the Group
under the contract;when the goods produced by the Group under the contract are irreplaceable and the Group has the right topayment for performance completed to date during the whole contract term.For performance obligations performed within a certain period, the Group recognises revenue by measuringthe progress towards complete of that performance obligation within that certain period. When the progressof performance cannot be reasonably determined, if the costs incurred by the Group are expected to becompensated, the revenue shall be recognised at the amount of costs incurred until the progress of performancecan be reasonably determined.For performance obligation performed at a point of time, the Group recognises revenue at the point of time atwhich the customer obtains control of relevant goods or services. To determine whether a customer has obtainedcontrol of goods or services, the Group considers the following indications:
the Group has the current right to receive payment for the goods, which is when the customers have the
current payment obligations for the goods;the Group has transferred the legal title of the goods to the customer, which is when the client possesses
the legal title of the goods;the Group has transferred the physical possession of goods to the customer, which is when the customer
obtains physical possession of the goods;the Group has transferred all of the substantial risks and rewards of ownership of the goods to the customer,
which is when the customer obtain all of the substantial risks and rewards of ownership of the goods to the
customer; the customer has accepted the goods; other information indicates that the customer has obtained control of the goods.

(1) General principles (Cont
’d)The Group’s right to consideration in exchange for goods or services that the Group has transferred to customers(and such right depends on factors other than passage of time) is accounted for as contract assets, and contractassets are subject to impairment based on ECLs (see Note V. 25). The Group’s unconditional right to receiveconsideration from customers (only depends on passage of time) is accounted for as accounts receivable. TheGroup’s obligation to transfer goods or services to customers for which the Group has received or should receiveconsideration from customers is accounted for as contract liabilities.Contract assets and contract liabilities under the same contract are presented on a net basis. Where the netamount has a debit balance, it is presented in“contract assets”or“other non-current assets”according to itsliquidity. Where the net amount has a credit balance, it is presented in“contract liabilities”or“other non-currentliabilities” according to its liquidity.
(2) Specific methods
Specific method for revenue recognition of machine-made paper business of the Group: in terms of domesticsales of machine-made paper, revenue is recognised when goods are delivered to the customers and suchdeliveries are confirmed; while in terms of overseas sales of machine-made paper, revenue is recognised on theday when goods are loaded on board and declared.Specific method for recognition of finance lease income of the Group: according to the repayment schedule, theincome is recognised by instalments according to the effective interest rate.Specific method for recognition of revenue from real estate of the Group: revenue is recognised by amortising therental income on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
33. Government grants
A government grant is recognised when there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and that the Groupwill comply with the conditions attaching to the grant.If a government grant is in the form of a transfer of a monetary asset, it is measured at the amount received orreceivable. If a government grant is in the form of a transfer of non-monetary asset, it is measured at fair value; if the fairvalue cannot be obtained in a reliable way, it is measured at the nominal amount of RMB1.Government grants obtained for acquisition or construction of long-term assets or other forms of long-term assetformation are classified as government grants related to assets, while the remaining government grants are classified asgovernment grants related to revenue.Regarding the government grant not clearly defined in the official documents and can form long-term assets, the partof government grant which can be referred to the value of the assets is classified as government grant related to assetsand the remaining part is government grant related to revenue. For the government grant that is difficult to distinguish,the entire government grant is classified as government grant related to revenue.

33. Government grants (Cont
’d)A government grant related to an asset shall be recognised as deferred income, and evenly amortised to profit or lossover the useful life of the asset in a reasonable and systematic manner. For a government grant related to revenue, ifthe grant is a compensation for related costs, expenses or losses incurred, the grant shall be recognised in profit or lossfor the current period; if the grant is a compensation for related costs, expenses or losses to be incurred in subsequentperiods, the grant shall be recognised as deferred income, and recognised in profit or loss over the periods in which therelated costs, expenses or losses are recognised. A government grant measured at nominal amount is directly includedin profit or loss for the current period. The Group adopts a consistent approach to the same or similar governmentgrants.A government grant related to daily activities is recognised in other gains relying on the essence of economic business;otherwise, recognised in non-operating income or non-operating expenses.For the repayment of a government grant already recognised, if there is any related deferred income, the repaymentshall be off set against the carrying amount of the deferred income, and any excess shall be recognised in profit or lossfor the current period; otherwise, the repayment shall be recognised immediately in profit or loss for the current period.For the policy preferential interest subsidy, if it is provided by the financial authority through banks, it is recognisedat the amount of borrowings actually received, and the borrowings costs are calculated based on the principal of theborrowings and the policy preferential interest rate; if it is provided by the financial authority directly, the correspondinginterest will be used to offset the relevant borrowing expenses.
34. Deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities
Income tax comprises current income tax expense and deferred income tax expense, which are included in profit orloss for the current period as income tax expenses, except for deferred tax related to transactions or events that aredirectly recognised in owners’ equity which are recognised in owners’equity, and deferred tax arising from a businesscombination, which is adjusted against the carrying amount of goodwill.Temporary differences arising from the difference between the carrying amount of an asset or liability and its tax baseat the balance sheet date of the Group shall be recognised as deferred income tax using the balance sheet liabilitymethod.All the taxable temporary differences are recognised as deferred income tax liabilities except for those incurred in thefollowing transactions:
(1) The initial recognition of goodwill, and the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction which is neither
a business combination nor affects accounting profit or taxable profit (or deductible loss) when the transactionoccurs;
(2) The taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures,
and the Group is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that thetemporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

(1) The transaction is neither a business combination nor affects accounting profit or taxable profit (or deductible loss)
when the transaction occurs;
(2) The deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures,
the corresponding deferred income tax asset is recognised when both of the following conditions are satisfied: it isprobable that the temporary difference will reverse in the foreseeable future, and it is probable that taxable profitswill be available in the future, against which the temporary difference can be utilised.At the balance sheet date, deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities are measured at the taxrates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, and their tax effect isreflected accordingly.At the balance sheet date, the Group reviews the carrying amount of a deferred income tax asset. If it is probable thatsufficient taxable profits will not be available in future periods to allow the benefit of the deferred tax asset to be utilised,the carrying amount of the deferred tax asset is reduced. Any such reduction in amount is reversed when it becomesprobable that sufficient taxable profits will be available.
35. Lease
(1) Identification of leases
On the beginning date of the contract, the Group (as a lessee or lessor) assesses whether the customer inthe contract has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the identified assetthroughout the period of use and has the right to direct the use of the identified asset throughout the period ofuse. If a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset and multiple identified assets for aperiod of time in exchange for consideration, the Group identifies such contract is, or contains, a lease
(2) The Group as lessee
On the beginning date of the lease, the Company recognises right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for all leases,except for short-term lease and low-value asset lease with simplified approach.The accounting policy for right-of-use assets is set out in Note V. 23.The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the beginningdate of the lease using the interest rate implicit in the lease or the incremental borrowing rate. Lease paymentsinclude fixed payments and in-substance fixed payments, less any lease incentives receivable; variable leasepayments that are based on an index or a rate; the exercise price of a purchase option if the lessee is reasonablycertain to exercise that option; payments for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the lessee exercisingthat option of terminating; and amounts expected to be payable by the lessee under residual value guarantees.Subsequently, the interest expense on the lease liability for each period during the lease term is calculated using aconstant periodic rate of interest and is recognised in profit or loss for the current period. Variable lease paymentsnot included in the measurement of lease liabilities are charged to profit or loss in the period in which they actuallyarise. The Group calculates the interest expense of the lease liability for each period of the lease term based onthe fixed periodic interest rate and is included in the current profit and loss. The variable lease payments that arenot included in the measurement of the lease liability are recognised in profit or loss when incurred.

’d)Short-term lease
Short-term leases refer to leases with a lease term of less than 12 months from the commencement date, exceptfor those with a purchase option.Lease payments on short-term leases are recognised in the cost of related assets or current profit or loss on astraight-line basis over the lease term.For short-term leases, the Group chooses to adopt the above simplified approach for the following types of assetsthat meet the conditions of short-term lease according to the classification of leased assets.Low-valve machinery and equipmentTransportation vehiclesLow-value asset leaseA low-value asset lease is a lease that the value of a single leased asset is below RMB2,000,000 when it is a newasset.For a low-value asset lease, the Group chooses the above simplified approach based on the specificcircumstances of each lease.Lease payments on low-value asset leases are recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term, and eitherincluded in the cost of the related asset or charged to profit or loss for the current period.
(3) The Group as lessor
When the Group is a lessor, a lease is classified as a finance lease whenever the terms of the lease transfersubstantially all the risks and rewards of asset ownership to the lessee. All leases other than financial leases areclassified as operating leases.Operating lease
Lease payments under operating leases are recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.Initial direct costs incurred in relation to operating leases are capitalised and amortised over the lease term on thesame basis as rental income and recognised in profit or loss for the current period. The variable lease paymentsobtained in relation to operating leases that are not included in the lease payments are recognised in profit or lossin the period in which they actually incurred.

(4) Sale and leaseback
The lessee and the lessor shall assess and determine whether the transfer of assets in a sale and leasebacktransaction is a sale in accordance with the requirements of the Accounting Standard for Business Enterprises No.14 – Revenue.Where asset transfer under the sale and leaseback transactions is a sale, the lessee shall measure the right-of-useassets created by the sale and leaseback based on the portion of carrying amount of the original assets relatedto right of use obtained upon leaseback, and only recognise relevant profit or loss for the right transferred tothe lessor. The lessor shall account for the purchase of assets in accordance with other applicable ASBEs andaccount for the lease of assets in accordance with this standard.Where asset transfer under the sale and leaseback transactions is not a sale, the lessee shall continue torecognise the transferred assets while recognising a financial liability equal to the transfer income and accountfor such liability according to the Accounting Standard for Business Enterprises No. 22 – Recognition andMeasurement of Financial Instruments; or not to recognise the transferred assets but recognise a financial assetequal to the transfer income and account for such asset according to the Accounting Standard for BusinessEnterprises No. 22 – Recognition and Measurement of Financial Instruments.
36. General risk reserves
General risk reserve is a reserve provided from net profit for the partial offset unidentified possible lossesAdopting the principle of dynamic provisioning, the Finance Company employs the standard method to quantitativelyanalyse the risk situation faced by risk assets, to determine the estimated potential risk value. After calculating thepotential risk value, if the potential risk value is higher than the provision for impairment of assets, the accrued provisionfor impairment of assets will be deducted and provision for general risk will be made. If the potential risk value is lowerthan the provision for impairment of assets, provision for general risk will not be made.Dynamic provisioning is a counter-cyclical provisioning method adopted by financial companies based on changesin the macroeconomic situation, as in, in the upward cycle of macro economy and when the risk asset default rateis relatively low, more provisions are made to enhance financial buffer capacity; and in the downturn cycle of macroeconomy and when the risk asset default rate is relatively high, the accumulated provisions are used to absorb assetlosses.The Finance Company makes general risk provisions for assets bearing risks and losses at the end of each year, thebalance of which, in principle, shall not be lower than 1.5% of the closing balance of risk assets. The risk provisionmade by factoring companies shall not be lower than 1% of the closing balance of the financial factoring business.Based on changes in the macroeconomic situation, and with reference to non-performing corporate loans,non-performing loan ratio, provision coverage ratio for non-performing loans, loan provision ratio, standard risk factorand the requirement of general risk provision as a percentage of risk assets, the Ministry of Finance makes adjustmentsto the scope of risk assets for general risk provisions, standard risk factor and the requirement of general risk provisionas a percentage of risk assets as appropriate. The Finance Company shall make adjustments accordingly according tothe requirements of the Ministry of Finance.Provisions for general risk are insufficient, in principle, the company shall not engage in after-tax profit distribution. Asconsidered and approved by the board of directors and general meeting of the Finance Company, such provisions maybe used to offset losses but not for dividends. For special reasons, as approved by the Board and the general meeting,general risk reserves may be reclassified into undistributed profits.

37. Critical accounting judgments and estimates
The Group gives continuous assessment on, among other things, the reasonable expectations of future events and thecritical accounting estimates and key assumptions adopted according to its historical experience and other factors. Thecritical accounting estimates and key assumptions that are likely to lead to significant adjustment risks of the carryingamount of assets and liabilities for the next financial year are listed as follows:
Classification of financial assetsSignificant judgements involved in determining the classification of financial assets include the analysis of businessmodels and contractual cash flow characteristics.Factors considered by the Group in determining the business model for a group of financial assets include how theasset’s performance is evaluated and reported to key management personnel, how risks are assessed and managedand how the relevant management personnel are compensated.When the Group assesses whether the contractual cash flows of the financial assets are consistent with basic lendingarrangements, the main judgements are described as below: whether the principal amount may change over the life ofthe financial asset (for example, if there are repayments of principal); whether the interest includes only considerationfor the time value of money, credit risk, other basic lending risks and a profit margin and cost. For example, whetherthe amount repaid in advance reflects only the outstanding principal and interest thereon, as well as reasonablecompensation paid for early termination of the contract.Measurement of the ECLs of accounts receivableThe Group calculates the ECLs of accounts receivable using the exposure to default risk and ECL rate of accountsreceivable, and determines the ECL rate based on default probability and default loss rate. When determining the ECLrate, the Group adjusts its historical data by referring to information such as historical credit loss experience as well ascurrent situation and forward-looking information. When considering the forward-looking information, indicators used bythe Group include the risk of economic downturn, external market environment, technology environment and changesin customers. The assumptions relating to the ECL calculation are monitored and reviewed by the Group on a regularlybasisDeferred income tax assetsDeferred income tax assets are recognised for all unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that taxable profitwill be available against which the losses can be utilised. Significant management judgement is required to determinethe amount of deferred income tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely timing and level of futuretaxable profits together with future tax planning strategies.
