6. Accounting treatment of business combinations under common control and not under common control
(1) Business combination under common control
For the business combination involving entities under common control the assets and liabilities of the party being
merged that are obtained in the business combination by the absorbing party shall be measured at the carrying
amounts as recorded by the ultimate controlling party in the consolidated financial statements at the combination
date. The difference between the carrying amount of the consideration paid for the combination and the carrying
amount of the net assets obtained in the combination is charged to the capital reserve. If the capital reserve is not
sufficient to absorb the difference any excess shall be adjusted against retained earnings.Business combinations involving entities under common control and achieved in stages
The assets and liabilities of the party being merged that are obtained at the combination by the absorbing party
shall be measured at the carrying value as recorded by the ultimate controlling party in the consolidated financial
statements at combination date. The difference between the sum of the carrying value from original shareholding
portion and the new investment cost incurred at combination date and the carrying value of net assets obtained
at combination date shall be adjusted to capital reserve (share premium/capital premium) if the balance of capital
reserve is not sufficient to absorb the differences any excess is adjusted to retained earnings. The long-term
investment prior to the absorbing party obtaining the control of the party being merged the recognised profit or
loss comprehensive income and other change of owners’ equity at the closer date of the acquisition date and
combination date under common control shall separately offset the opening balance of retained earnings and
profit or loss during comparative statements.
(2) Business combination not under common control
For business combinations involving entities not under common control the cost for each combination is
measured at the aggregate fair value at acquisition date of assets given liabilities incurred or assumed and
equity securities issued by the acquirer in exchange for control of the acquiree. At acquisition date the acquired
assets liabilities or contingent liabilities of acquiree are measured at their fair value.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 19

(Cont’d)
(2) Business combination not under common control (Cont’d)
Where the cost of combination exceeds the acquirer’s interest in the fair value of the acquiree’s identifiable net
assets the difference is recognised as goodwill and subsequently measured on the basis of its cost minus
accumulative impairment provision; Where the cost of combination is less than the acquirer’s interest in the fair
value of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets the difference is recognised in profit or loss for the current period
after reassessment.Business combinations involving entities not under common control and achieved in stages
The combination cost is the sum of consideration paid at acquisition date and fair value of the acquiree’s equity
investment held prior to acquisition date. The cost of equity of the acquiree held prior to acquisition date shall be
remeasured at the fair value at acquisition date and the difference between the fair value and carrying amount
shall be recognised as investment income or loss for the current period. Other comprehensive income and
changes of other owners’ equity related with acquiree’s equity held prior to acquisition date shall be transferred
to investment profit or loss for current period at acquisition date except for the other comprehensive income
incurred by the changes of net assets or net liabilities due to the remeasurement of defined benefit plans and
the other comprehensive income related to investments in non-trading equity instruments that were previously
designated as at fair value through other comprehensive income.
(3) Transaction fees attribution during business combination
The audit legal valuation advisory and other intermediary fees and other relevant administrative expenses arising
from business combinations are recognised in profit or loss when incurred. Transaction costs of equity or debt
securities issued as the considerations of business combination are included in the initial recognition amounts.
7. Judgment criteria for control and preparation of consolidated financial statements
(1) Judgment criteria for control
The scope of consolidation of the consolidated financial statements is determined on the basis of control. The
term “control” refers to the fact that the Company has power over the investee and is entitled to variable returns
from its involvement with the investee and the ability to use its power over the investee to affect the amount of
those returns. The Company will reassess when changes in relevant facts and circumstances result in changes in
the relevant elements involved in the definition of control.When judging whether to include a structured entity into the scope of consolidation the Company
comprehensively considers all facts and circumstances including assessing the purpose and design of the
structured entity identifying the types of variable returns and assessing whether to control the structured entity
on the basis of whether it bears part or all of the return variability by participating in its related activities.

7. Judgment criteria for control and preparation of consolidated financial statements (Cont’d)
(2) Basis for preparation of the consolidated financial statements
The consolidated financial statements are prepared by the Company based on the financial statements of the
Company 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 and intra-
company significant transactions and balances are eliminated.A subsidiary and its business acquired through a business combination involving entities under common control
during the reporting period shall be included in the scope of the consolidation of the Company from the date
of being controlled by the ultimate controlling party and its operating results and cash flows from the date of
being controlled by the ultimate controlling party are included in the consolidated income statement and the
consolidated cash flow statement respectively.For a subsidiary and its business acquired through a business combination involving entities not under common
control during the reporting period its income expenses and profits are included in the consolidated income
statement and cash flows are included in the consolidated cash flow statement from the acquisition date to the
end of the reporting period.The shareholders’ equity of the subsidiaries that is not attributable to the Company is presented under
shareholders’ equity in the consolidated balance sheet as minority interest. The portion of net profit or loss of
subsidiaries for the period attributable to minority interest is presented in the consolidated income statement
under the “profit or loss of minority interest”. When the amount of loss attributable to the minority shareholders of
a 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) Acquisition of non-controlling interests in subsidiaries
The difference between the long-term equity investments costs acquired by the acquisition of non-controlling
interests and the share of the net assets from subsidiaries from the date of acquisition or the date of combination
based on the new shareholding ratio as well as the difference between the proceeds from the partial disposal
of the equity investment without losing control over its subsidiary and the disposal of the long-term equity
investment corresponding to the share of the net assets of the subsidiaries from the date of acquisition or the date
of combination is adjusted to the capital reserve. If the capital reserve is not sufficient any excess is adjusted to
retained earnings.
(4) 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 from
the sum of consideration received for disposal of equity interest and the fair value of remaining equity interest
over the sum of the share of the carrying amount of net assets of the former subsidiary calculated continuously
from the purchase date based on the shareholding percentage before disposal and the goodwill is recognised as

same basis as the former subsidiary’s direct disposal of relevant assets or liabilities when the control is lost. Other

10. Foreign currency operations and translation of statements denominated in foreign currency
(1) Foreign currency operations
The foreign currency operations of the Company are translated into the functional currency at the prevailing spot
exchange rate on the date of exchange.On the balance sheet date foreign currency monetary items shall be translated at the spot exchange rate on
the balance sheet date. The exchange difference arising from the difference between the spot exchange rate
on the balance sheet date and the spot exchange rate upon initial recognition or the last balance sheet date will
be recognised in profit or loss for the period. The foreign currency non-monetary items measured at historical
cost shall still be measured by the functional currency translated at the spot exchange rate on the date of the
transaction. Foreign currency non-monetary items measured at fair value are translated at the spot exchange
rate on the date of determination of the fair value. The difference between the amounts of the functional currency
before and after the translation will be recognised in profit or loss or other comprehensive income for the period
based on the nature of the non-monetary items.
(2) Translation of financial statements denominated in foreign currency
When translating the financial statements denominated in foreign currency of overseas subsidiaries assets and
liabilities on the balance sheet are translated at the spot exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date;
owner’s equity items except for “retained profit” are translated at the spot exchange rates at the dates on which

11. Financial instruments
A financial instrument is a contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one party and a financial liability or equity
instrument of another party.
(1) Recognition and derecognition of financial instruments
Financial asset or financial liability will be recognised when the Company became one of the parties under a
financial instrument contract.Financial asset that satisfied any of the following criteria shall be derecognised:
* the contract right to receive the cash flows of the financial asset has terminated;
* the financial asset has been transferred and meets the derecognition criteria for the transfer of financial
asset as described below.A financial liability (or a part thereof) is derecognised only when the present obligation is discharged in full or in
part. If an agreement is entered between the Company (debtor) and a creditor to replace the existing financial
liabilities with new financial liabilities and the contractual terms of the new financial liabilities are substantially
different from those of the existing financial liabilities the existing financial liabilities shall be derecognised and the
new financial liabilities shall be recognised.Conventionally traded financial assets shall be recognised and derecognised at the trading date.
(2) Classification and measurement of financial assets
The Company classifies the financial assets according to the business model for managing the financial assets
and characteristics of the contractual cash flows as follows: financial assets measured at amortised cost financial
assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income and financial assets measured at fair value
through profit or loss.Financial assets are measured at fair value upon initial recognition. For financial assets measured at fair value
through profit or loss relevant transaction costs 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 arising from sales of goods or rendering services without significant financing component
are initially recognised based on the transaction price expected to be entitled by the Company.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 designated
at fair value through profit or loss:
* The Company’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 solely
payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.Subsequent to initial recognition such financial assets are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest
method. A gain or loss on a financial asset that is measured at amortised cost and is not part of a hedging
relationship 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.

(2) Classification and measurement of financial assets (Cont’d)
Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income
A financial asset is classified as measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if it meets both of the
following conditions and is not designated at fair value through profit or loss:
* The Company’s business model for managing such financial assets is achieved both by collecting collect
contractual cash flows and selling such financial assets;
* The contractual terms of the financial asset stipulate that cash flows generated on specific dates are solely
payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.Subsequent to initial recognition such financial assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Interest calculated
using the effective interest method impairment losses or gains and foreign exchange gains and losses are
recognised in profit or loss for the current period and other gains or losses are recognised in other comprehensive
income. On derecognition the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in other comprehensive income is
reclassified from other comprehensive income to profit or loss.Financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss
The Company classifies the financial assets other than those measured at amortised cost and measured at fair
value through other comprehensive income as financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss. Upon
initial recognition the Company irrevocably designates certain financial assets that are required to be measured
at amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income as financial assets measured at fair value
through 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 hedging
purposes gains or losses (including interests and dividend income) arising from such financial assets are
recognised in the profit or loss for the current period.The business model for managing financial assets refers to how the Company manages its financial assets in
order to generate cash flows. That is the Company’s business model determines whether cash flows will result
from collecting contractual cash flows selling financial assets or both. The Company determines the business
model for managing financial assets on the basis of objective facts and specific business objectives for managing
financial assets determined by key management personnel.The Company assesses the characteristics of the contractual cash flows of financial assets to determine whether
the contractual cash flows generated by the relevant financial assets on a specific date are solely payments of
principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. The principal refers to the fair value of the financial
assets at the initial recognition. Interest includes consideration for the time value of money for the credit risk
associated with the principal amount outstanding during a particular period of time and for other basic lending
risks costs and profits. In addition the Company evaluates the contractual terms that may result in a change in
the time distribution or amount of contractual cash flows from a financial asset to determine whether it meets the
requirements of the above contractual cash flow characteristics.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 25

All affected financial assets are reclassified on the first day of the first reporting period following the change in
the business model where the Company changes its business model for managing financial assets; otherwise
financial assets shall not be reclassified after initial recognition.
(3) Classification and measurement of financial liabilities
At initial recognition financial liabilities of the Company are classified as financial liabilities measured at fair value
through profit or loss and financial liabilities measured at amortised cost. For financial liabilities not classified
as measured at fair value through profit or loss relevant transaction costs are included in the amount initially
recognised.Financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss
Financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss comprise held-for-trading financial liabilities and
financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss upon initial recognition. Such financial liabilities
are subsequently measured at fair value and the gains or losses from the change in fair value and the dividend or
interest expenses related to the financial liabilities are included in the profit or loss of the current period.Financial liabilities measured at amortised cost
Other 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 current
period.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 equity
instruments and the entity will deliver a variable number of its own equity instruments according to such
contract.* 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 asset
with a fixed number of its own equity instruments.

Classification between financial liabilities and equity instruments (Cont’d)
Equity instruments are any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all
of its liabilities.If the Company cannot unconditionally avoid the performance of a contractual obligation by paying cash or
delivering other financial assets the contractual obligation meets the definition of financial liabilities.Where a financial instrument must or may be settled with the Company’s own equity instruments the Company’s
own equity instruments used to settle such instrument should be considered as to whether it is as a substitute
for cash or other financial assets or for the purpose of enabling the holder of the instrument to be entitled to the
remaining interest in the assets of the issuer after deducting all of its liabilities. For the former it is a financial
liability of the Company; for the latter it is the Company’s own equity instruments.
(4) 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. 12.
(5) Impairment of financial assets
The Company makes provision for impairment based on expected credit losses (ECLs) on the following items:
* Financial assets measured at amortised cost;
* Receivables and investment in debt instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive
income;
* Contract assets as defined in the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 14 – Revenue;
* Lease receivables;
* Financial guarantee contracts (except those measured at fair value through profit or loss or formed by
continuing involvement of transferred financial assets or the transfer does not qualify for derecognition).SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 27

Measurement of ECLs
ECLs are the weighted average of credit losses of financial instruments weighted by the risk of default. Credit
losses refer to the difference between all contractual cash flows receivable according to the contract and
discounted according to the original effective interest rate and all cash flows expected to be received i.e. the
present value of all cash shortages.The Company takes into account reasonable and well-founded information such as past events current conditions
and forecasts of future economic conditions and calculates the probability-weighted amount of the present value
of the difference between the cash flows receivable from the contract and the cash flows expected to be received
weighted by the risk of default.The Company measures ECLs of financial instruments at different stages. If the credit risk of the financial
instrument did not increase significantly upon initial recognition it is at the first stage and the Company makes
provision for impairment based on the ECLs within the next 12 months; if the credit risk of a financial instrument
increased significantly upon initial recognition but has not yet incurred credit impairment it is at the second stage
and the Company makes provision for impairment based on the lifetime ECLs of the instrument; if the financial
instrument incurred credit impairment upon initial recognition it is at the third stage and the Company makes
provision for impairment based on the lifetime ECLs of the instrument.For financial instruments with low credit risk on the balance sheet date the Company assumes that the credit
risk did not increase significantly upon initial recognition and makes provision for impairment based on the ECLs
within the next 12 months.Lifetime ECLs represent the ECLs resulting from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial
instrument. The 12-month ECLs are the ECLs resulting from possible default events on a financial instrument
within 12 months (or a shorter period if the expected life of the financial instrument is less than 12 months) after
the 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 the
Company is exposed to credit risk including renewal options.For the financial instruments at the first and second stages and with low credit risks the Company calculates
the interest income based on the book balance and the effective interest rate before deducting the impairment
provisions. For financial instruments at the third stage interest income is calculated based on the amortised cost
after deducting impairment provisions made from the book balance and the effective interest rate.For receivables such as bills receivable accounts receivable accounts receivable financing and other receivables
if the credit risk characteristics of a customer are significantly different from other customers in the portfolio or the
credit risk characteristics of such customer change significantly the Company will make a separate provision for
bad debts for such receivables. In addition to the receivables for which bad debt provisions are made individually
the Company divides the receivables into portfolios based on credit risk characteristics and calculates bad debt
provisions on a combined basis.

Bills receivable and accounts receivable
For bills receivable accounts receivable and contract assets regardless of whether there is a significant financing
component the Company always makes provision for impairment at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs.When the Company is unable to assess the information of ECLs for an individual financial asset or contract assets
at a reasonable cost it classifies bills receivable accounts receivable and contract assets into portfolios based on
the credit risk characteristics and calculates the ECLs on a portfolio basis. The basis for determining the portfolios
is as follows:
A. Bills receivable
* Bills receivable portfolio 1: Bank acceptance bills
* Bills receivable portfolio 2: Commercial acceptance bills
B. Accounts receivable
* Accounts receivable portfolio 1: Due from related party customers
* Accounts receivable portfolio 2: Due from non-related party customers
* Accounts receivable portfolio 3: Factoring receivables
For bills receivable classified as a portfolio the Company refers to the historical credit loss experience combined
with the current situation and the forecast of future economic conditions to calculate the ECLs based on default
risk exposure and lifetime ECL rate.For accounts receivable classified as a portfolio the Company refers to the historical credit loss experience
combined with the current situation and the forecast of future economic conditions to prepare a comparison
table of the ageing of accounts receivable and the lifetime ECL rate to calculate the ECLs. The aging of accounts
receivable is calculated from the date of recognition.Other receivables
The Company classifies other receivables into portfolios based on credit risk characteristics and calculates the
ECLs on a portfolio basis. The basis for determining the portfolios is as follows:
* Other receivables portfolio 1: Amount due from government authorities
* Other receivables portfolio 2: Amount due from related parties
* Other receivables portfolio 3: Other receivables
For other receivables classified as a portfolio the Company calculates the ECLs based on default risk exposure
and the ECL rate over the next 12 months or the entire lifetime. For other receivables grouped by aging the aging
is calculated from the date of recognition.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 29

follows:
A. Finance lease receivables
* Finance lease receivables portfolio 1: Receivables not past due
* Finance lease receivables portfolio 2: Overdue receivables
B. Other long-term receivables
* Other long-term receivables portfolio 1: Deposits receivable
* Other long-term receivables portfolio 2: Other receivables
For accounts receivable financing and deposits receivable the Company refers to the historical credit loss
experience combined with the current situation and the forecast of future economic conditions and calculates
the ECLs based on default risk exposure and lifetime ECL rate.Except for those of finance lease receivables and deposits receivable the ECLs of other receivables and long-
term receivables classified as a portfolio are measured based on default risk exposure and ECL rate over the next
12 months or the entire lifetime.

Assessment of significant increase in credit risk
In assessing whether the credit risk of a financial instrument has increased significantly upon initial recognition the
Company compares the risk of default of the financial instrument at the balance sheet date with that at the date
of initial recognition to determine the relative change in risk of default within the expected lifetime of the financial
instrument.In determining whether the credit risk has increased significantly upon initial recognition the Company considers
reasonable and well-founded information including forward-looking information which can be obtained without
unnecessary extra costs or efforts. Information considered by the Company 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
significant adverse effect on the debtor’s ability to meet its obligation to the Company.Depending on the nature of the financial instruments the Company assesses whether there has been a significant
increase in credit risk on either an individual basis or a collective basis. When the assessment is performed on a
collective basis the financial instruments are grouped based on their common credit risk characteristics such as
past due information and credit risk ratings.The Company determines that the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly if it is more than 30
days past due.Credit-impaired financial assets
At balance sheet date the Company assesses whether financial assets measured at amortised cost and debt
investments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income are credit-impaired. A financial asset is
credit-impaired when one or more events that have an adverse effect on the estimated future cash flows of the
financial asset have occurred. Evidence that a financial asset is credit-impaired includes the following observable
events:
* 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 Company having granted
to the debtor 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
or debtor.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 31

Presentation of provisions for ECLs
ECLs are remeasured at each balance sheet date to reflect changes in the financial instrument’s credit risk upon
initial recognition. Any change in the ECL amount is recognised as an impairment gain or loss in profit or loss for
the current period. For financial assets measured at amortised cost the provisions of impairment is deducted
from the carrying amount of the financial assets presented in the balance sheet; for debt investments at fair value
through other comprehensive income the Company makes provisions of impairment in other comprehensive
income without reducing the carrying amount of the financial asset.Write-offs
The book balance of a financial asset is directly written off to the extent that there is no realistic prospect of
recovery of the contractual cash flows of the financial asset (either partially or in full). Such write-off constitutes
derecognition of such financial asset. This is generally the case when the Company determines that the debtor
does not have assets or sources of income that could generate sufficient cash flows to repay the amounts subject
to the write-off. However financial assets that are written off could still be subject to enforcement activities in
order to comply with the Company’s procedures for recovery of amounts due.If a write-off of financial assets is subsequently recovered the recovery is credited to profit or loss in the period in
which the recovery occurs.
(6) Transfer of financial assets
Transfer of financial assets refers to the transfer or delivery of financial assets to another party other than the
issuer of such financial assets (the transferee).If the Company transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset to the
transferee the financial asset shall be derecognised. If the Company retains substantially all the risks and rewards
of ownership of a financial asset the financial asset shall not be derecognised.If the Company 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 Company does not retain control it derecognises the
financial asset and recognises any resulting assets or liabilities; if the control over the financial asset is not waived
the relevant financial asset is recognised according to the extent of its continuing involvement in the transferred
financial asset and the relevant liability is recognised accordingly.
(7) Offset of financial assets and financial liabilities
If the Company owns the legitimate rights of offsetting the recognised financial assets and financial liabilities
which are enforceable currently and the Company plans to realise the financial assets or to clear off the financial
liabilities on a net amount basis or simultaneously the net amount of financial assets and financial liabilities shall
be presented in the balance sheet upon offsetting. Otherwise financial assets and financial liabilities are presented
separately in the balance sheet without offsetting.

12. Fair value measurement
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction
between market participants at the measurement date.The Company measures the relevant asset and liability at fair value based on the presumption that the orderly
transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either in the principal market for the relevant asset or
liability or in the absence of a principal market in the most advantageous market for relevant the asset or liability. The
principal or the most advantageous market must be a trading market accessible by the Company at the measurement
date. The Company adopts the presumption that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability in their
best economic interest.If there exists an active market for a financial asset or financial liability the Company uses the quotation on the active
market as its fair value. If the market for a financial instrument is inactive the Company uses valuation technique to
recognise its fair value.Fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant’s ability to generate economic
benefits by using the asset in its best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its
best use.The Company adopts valuation techniques that are appropriate in the current circumstance and for which sufficient data
and other information are available prioritises the use of relevant observable inputs and uses unobservable inputs only
under the circumstances where such relevant observable inputs cannot be obtained or practicably obtained.Assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorised within the
fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole. Level 1:
based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities obtainable at the measurement
date. Level 2: observable inputs for the relevant asset or liability either directly or indirectly except for Level 1 input.Level 3: unobservable inputs for the relevant assets or liability.At each balance sheet date the Company reassesses assets and liabilities measured at fair value that are recognised
in the financial statements on a recurring basis to determine whether transfers have occurred between fair value
measurement hierarchy levels.
13. Inventories
(1) Classification of inventories
Inventories of the Company mainly include raw materials work in progress goods in stock development products
and consumable biological assets etc.
(2) Pricing of inventories dispatched
Inventories of the Company are measured at their actual cost when obtained. Cost of raw materials goods in
stock and 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. Consumable
biological assets without a stock are stated at historical cost at initial recognition and subsequently measured
at fair value when there is a stock. Changes in fair values shall be recognised as profit or loss in the current
period. The cost of self-planting self-cultivating consumable biological assets is the necessary expenses
directly 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 loss
for the current period.The cost of consumable biological assets shall at the time of harvest or disposal be carried forward at carrying
amount using the stock volume proportion method.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 33

(3) Recognition of and provision for inventory impairment
At the balance sheet date inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. If the net
realisable value is below the cost of inventories a provision for inventory impairment is made.Net realisable value refers to the amount of the estimated price of inventories less the estimated cost incurred
upon completion estimated sales expenses and taxes and levies. The realisable value of inventories shall be
determined on the basis of definite evidence purpose of holding the inventories and effect of after-balance-sheet-
date events.The Company usually makes provisions for inventory impairment on the basis of individual inventory items;
however for inventories with large quantities and lower unit prices these inventories are accrued impairment
according to inventory categories.
(4) Inventory stock taking system
The Company implements permanent inventory system as its inventory stock taking system.
(5) Amortisation of low-value consumables and packaging materials
The low-value consumables of the Company are amortised when issued for use.Packaging materials for turnover are amortised when issued for use.
14. Long-term equity investments
Long-term equity investments include the equity investments in subsidiaries joint ventures and associates. Associates
of the Company are those investees that the Company imposes significant influence over.
(1) Determination of initial investment cost
Long-term equity investments acquired through business combinations: for a long-term equity investment
acquired through a business combination involving enterprises under common control the investment cost shall
be the absorbing party’s share of the carrying amount of the owners’ equity under the consolidated financial
statements of the ultimate controlling party on the date of combination. For a long-term equity investment
acquired through a business combination involving enterprises not under common control the investment cost of
the 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 cash
payment the initial investment cost shall be the purchase cost actually paid; for a long-term equity investment
acquired 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 meet
the conditions of holding for sale investments in associates and joint ventures shall be accounted for using the
equity method.For a long-term equity investment accounted for using the cost method the cash dividends or profits declared by
the investees for distribution shall be recognised as investment gains and included in profit or loss for the current
period except the case of receiving the actual consideration paid for the investment or the declared but not yet
distributed cash dividends or profits which is included in the consideration.

(2) Subsequent measurement and method for profit or loss recognition (Cont’d)
For a long-term equity investment accounted for using the equity method where the initial investment cost
exceeds the investor’s interest in the fair value of the investee’s identifiable net assets at the acquisition date no
adjustment shall be made to the investment cost of the long-term equity investment. Where the initial investment
cost is less than the investor’s interest in the fair value of the investee’s identifiable net assets at the acquisition
date adjustment shall be made to the carrying amount of the long-term equity investment and the difference shall
be charged to profit or loss for the current period.Under the equity method investment gain and other comprehensive income shall be recognised based on the
Company’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 of long-
term equity investment shall be reduced based on the Group’s share of profit or cash dividend distributed by
the investee. In respect of the other movement of net profit or loss other comprehensive income and profit
distribution of investee the carrying amount of long-term equity investment shall be adjusted and included in
the capital reserves (other capital reserves). The Group shall recognise its share of the investee’s net profits or
losses 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 the
Company.For additional equity investment made in order to obtain significant influence or common control over investee
without resulted in control the initial investment cost under the equity method shall be the aggregate of fair value
of previously held equity investment and additional investment cost on the date of transfer. For investments in non-
trading equity instruments that were previously classified as at fair value through other comprehensive income the
cumulative fair value changes associated with them that were previously included in other comprehensive income
are transferred to retained earnings upon the change to the equity method of accounting.In the event of loss of common control or significant influence over investee due to partial disposal of equity
investment the remaining equity interest after disposal shall be accounted for according to the Accounting
Standard for Business Enterprises No. 22 – Recognition and measurement of Financial Instruments. The difference
between its fair value and carrying amount shall be included in profit or loss for the current period. In respect
of other comprehensive income recognised under previous equity investment using equity method it shall be
accounted for in accordance with the same accounting treatment for direct disposal of relevant asset or liability by
investee at the time when equity method was ceased to be used. Movement of other owners’ equity related to the
previous 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 equity
interest which can apply common control or impose significant influence over the investee after disposal shall be
accounted for using equity method. Such remaining equity interest shall be treated as accounting for using equity
method since it is obtained and adjustment was made accordingly. For the remaining equity interest which cannot
apply common control or impose significant influence over the investee after disposal it shall be accounted for
using the Accounting Standard for Business Enterprises No. 22 – Recognition and measurement of Financial
Instruments. The difference between its fair value and carrying amount as at the date of losing control shall be
included in profit or loss for the current period.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 35

(2) Subsequent measurement and method for profit or loss recognition (Cont’d)
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 the
investee the net asset increase due to the capital increase of the investee attributable to the Company shall be
recognised according to the new shareholding ratio and the difference with the original carrying amount of the
long-term equity investment corresponding to the shareholding ratio reduction part that should be carried forward
shall be recorded in the profit or loss for the current period; and then it shall be adjusted according to the new
shareholding ratio as if equity method is used for accounting when acquiring the investment.In respect of the transactions between the Company and its associates and joint ventures the share of unrealised
gain or loss arising from internal transactions shall be eliminated by the portion attributable to the Company.Investment gain or loss shall be recognised accordingly. However any unrealised loss arising from internal
transactions between the Company and an investee is not eliminated to the extent that the loss is impairment loss
of the transferred assets.
(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 of
such arrangement must be decided by unanimously agreement from parties who share control. When determining
if there is any common control it should first be identified if the arrangement is controlled by all the participants
or the group consisting of the participants and then determined if the decision on the arranged activity can be
made only with the unanimous consent of the participants sharing the control. If all the participants or a group
of participants can only decide the relevant activities of certain arrangement through concerted action it can
be considered that all the participants or a group of participants share common control on the arrangement. If
there are two or more participant groups that can collectively control certain arrangement it does not constitute
common control. When determining if there is any common control the relevant protection rights will not be taken
into account.Significant influence is the power of the investor to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of
an investee but to fail to control or joint control the formulation of such policies together with other parties. When
determining if there is any significant influence on the investee the influence of the voting shares of the investee
held by the investor directly and indirectly and the potential voting rights held by the investor and other parties
which 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 shares
of the investee it is generally considered to have significant influence on the investee unless there is concrete
evidence to prove that it cannot participate in the production and operation decision-making of the investee and
cannot pose significant influence in this situation. When the Company owns less than 20% (exclusive) of the
voting shares of the investee it is generally considered that it has not significantly influenced on the investee
unless there is concrete evidence to prove that it can participate in the production and operation decision-making
of the investee and can impose significant influence in this situation.

15. Investment property
Investment property refers to real estate held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation or both. The investment property
of the Company includes leased land use rights land use rights held for sale after appreciation and leased buildings.The investment property of the Company is measured initially at cost upon acquisition and subject to depreciation or
amortisation 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 subsequent
measurement please refer to Note V. 23.When an investment property is sold transferred retired or damaged the amount of proceeds on disposal of the
property net of the carrying amount and related tax and surcharges is recognised in profit or loss for the current period.
16. Fixed assets
(1) Conditions for recognition of fixed assets
Fixed assets represent the tangible assets held by the Company using in the production of goods rendering of
services and for operation and administrative purposes with useful life over one year.Fixed assets are recognised when it is probable that the related economic benefits will flow to the Company and
the costs can be reliably measured.The Company’s fixed assets are initially measured at the actual cost at the time of acquisition.Subsequent expenditures incurred for a fixed asset are included in the cost of the fixed asset when it is probable
that the associated economic benefits will flow to the Company and the related cost can be reliably measured.The cost of routine repairs of fixed assets that do not qualify as capitalised subsequent expenditure is charged to
current profit or loss or included in the cost of the related assets in accordance with the beneficiary object when
incurred. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised.
(2) Depreciation method of fixed assets
The Company adopts the straight-line method for depreciation. Provision for depreciation will be started when the
fixed asset reaches its expected usable state and stopped when the fixed asset is derecognised or classified as a
non-current asset held for sale. Without regard to the depreciation provision the Company determines the annual
depreciation rate by category estimated useful lives and estimated residual value of the fixed assets as below:
Year of Estimated residual Annual depreciation
Category depreciation (year) value (%) rate (%)
Housing and building structure 20-40 5-10 2.25-4.75
Machinery and equipment 8-20 5-10 4.50-11.88
Transportation equipment 5-8 5-10 11.25-19.00
Electronic equipment and others 5 5-10 18.00-19.00
Where for the fixed assets for which impairment provision is made to determine the depreciation rate the
accumulated amount of the fixed asset impairment provision that has been made shall be deducted.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 37

(3) The impairment test method and impairment provision method of the fixed assets are set out in Note V. 23.
(4) The Company will review 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 useful
lives of the fixed asset shall be adjusted. When there is any difference between the estimated net residual value
estimate and the originally estimated value the estimated net residual value shall be adjusted.
(5) Disposal of fixed assets
A fixed asset is derecognised on disposal or when it is expected that there shall be no economic benefit arising
from using or after disposal. Where the fixed assets are sold transferred retired or damaged the income received
after disposal after deducting the carrying amount and related taxes are recognised in profit or loss for the current
period.
17. Construction in progress
Construction in progress of the Company is recognised based on the actual construction cost including all necessary
expenditures incurred for construction projects capitalised borrowing costs for the construction in progress before it
has 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.For technological transformation or new machine-made paper projects the projects will be put into trial operation for a
period of time (usually three months) upon completion of construction. After the internal acceptance is completed during
the trial operation period the construction in progress will be transferred to fixed assets.The method for impairment provision of construction in progress is set out in Note V. 23.
18. Materials for project
The materials for project of the Group refer to various materials prepared for construction in progress including
construction materials equipment not yet installed and tools for production.The purchased materials for project are measured at cost and the planning materials for project are transferred to
construction in progress. After the completion of the project the remaining materials for project are transferred to
inventory.The method for impairment provision of materials for project is set out in Note V. 23.The closing balance of materials for project is presented as “construction in progress” item in the balance sheet.

19. Borrowing costs
(1) Recognition principle for the capitalisation of the borrowing costs
The borrowing costs incurred by the Company directly attributable to the acquisition construction or production
of a qualifying asset will be capitalised and included in the cost of relevant asset. Other borrowing costs will be
recognised as expenses when incurred according to the incurred amount and included in the profit or loss for the
current 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 or
producing the qualifying assets;
* the borrowing costs have been incurred; and
* the acquisition construction or production activity necessary for the asset to be ready for its intended use
or sale has been started.
(2) Capitalisation period of borrowing costs
When a qualifying asset acquired constructed or produced by the Company is ready for its intended use or sale
the capitalisation of the borrowing costs shall discontinue. The borrowing costs incurred after a qualifying asset
is ready for its intended use or sale shall be recognised as expenses when incurred according to the incurred
amount 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 or
production of a qualifying asset is interrupted abnormally when the interruption is for a continuous period of more
than 3 months. The capitalisation of the borrowing costs shall be continued in the normal interruption period.
(3) Calculation methods for capitalisation rate and capitalised amount of the borrowing costs
Where funds are borrowed for a specific purpose the amount of interest to be capitalised shall be the actual
interest expense incurred on that borrowing for the period less any bank interest earned from depositing the
borrowed funds before being used into banks or any investment income on the temporary investment of those
funds. Where funds are borrowed for general purpose the Company shall determine the amount of interest
to be capitalised on such borrowings by applying a capitalisation rate to the weighted average of the excess
amounts 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-purpose
borrowings.During the capitalisation period exchange differences on a specific purpose borrowing denominated in foreign
currency shall be capitalised. Exchange differences related to general-purpose borrowings denominated in foreign
currency shall be included in profit or loss for the current period.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 39

20. Bearer biological assets
(1) Standards for recognising bearer biological assets
Bearer biological assets refer to biological assets held for the purpose of producing agricultural products
providing labour services or renting. The Company’s bearer biological assets are mainly tea trees. Bearer
biological assets are initially measured at cost. The cost of a planted or propagated bearer biological asset
includes the expenses directly attributable to the asset and necessarily incurred before the asset is ready for its
intended production and operation including the borrowing costs that are eligible for capitalisation.The management protection and feeding costs of a biological asset subsequent to crown closure or after the
asset is ready for its intended production and operation are expensed and recognised in profit or loss as incurred.According to experience the tea trees grown by the Company generally take 7 years to reach the crown closure
stage.Depreciation of bearer biological assets is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life
of each biological asset less its residual value as follows:
Estimated residual Annual depreciation
Type of bearer biological assets Useful life (year) value (%) rate (%)
Tea tree 20 5.00
The Company reviews the useful life and estimated net residual value of a bearer biological asset and the
depreciation method applied at least at each financial year-end. A change in the useful life or estimated net
residual value of a fixed asset or the depreciation method used shall be accounted for as a change in accounting
estimate.The difference between the disposal income of the sale loss death or damage of a bearer biological asset net of
its carrying amount and related taxes is recognised in profit or loss for the current period.
(2) Treatment of impairment of bearer biological assets
The method for impairment provision of bearer biological assets is set out in Note V. 23.

21. Intangible assets
The intangible assets of the Company include land use rights software patents 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 is
finite the intangible asset will be amortised over the estimated useful life using the amortisation method that can reflect
the 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. The
intangible assets with uncertain useful life will not be amortised.The amortisation methods for the intangible assets with finite useful life are as follows:
The basis for determining Method of
Category Useful life useful life amortisation Remark
Land use rights 50-70 Years of certificate Straight-line method
Software 5-10 Estimated years for Straight-line method
software replacement
Patents 5-20 Useful life of purchase Straight-line method
Certificates of third party right 3 Useful life of purchase Straight-line method
The Company reviews the useful life and amortisation method of the intangible assets with finite useful life at the end of
each year. If it is different from the previous estimates the original estimates will be adjusted and will be treated as a
change in accounting estimate.If it is estimated on the balance sheet date that certain intangible asset can no longer bring future economic benefit to
the company the carrying amount of the intangible asset will be entirely transferred into the profit or loss for the current
period.The impairment method for the intangible assets is set out in Note V. 23.
22. R&D expenses
The R&D expenses of the Company are expenses directly related to the R&D activities of the Company including the
wages R&D staff direct investment costs depreciation expenses and long-term prepaid expenses design expenses
equipment testing expenses amortisation expenses of intangible assets and outsourced R&D expenses and other
expenses. Among them the wages of R&D staff are included in R&D expenses based on working hours of related
projects. Equipment production lines and sites shared between R&D activities and other production and operation
activities are included in R&D expenses according to the proportion of working hours and the proportion of area.The Company divides the expenses on internal R&D projects into expenses in the research phase and expenses in the
development phase. All R&D expenses of the Company are included in the current profits and losses when incurred.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 41

23. Asset impairment
Impairment of long-term equity investments in subsidiaries associates and joint ventures asset impairment on
investment property fixed assets construction in progress bearer biological assets measured at cost right-of-
use assets intangible assets goodwill and others (excluding inventories deferred tax assets and financial assets)
subsequently measured at cost is determined as follows:
The Company determines if there is any indication of asset impairment as at the balance sheet date. If there is any
evidence indicating that an asset may be impaired recoverable amount shall be estimated for impairment test. Goodwill
arising from business combinations intangible assets with an indefinite useful life and intangible assets not ready for
intended use will be tested 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 the
future cash flows expected to be derived from the asset. The Company estimates the recoverable amount of an
individual asset. If it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of the individual asset the Company shall
determine the recoverable amount of the asset group to which the asset belongs. The determination of an asset group
is based on whether major cash inflows generated by the asset group are independent of the cash inflows from other
assets or asset groups.When the recoverable amount of an asset or an asset group is less than its carrying amount the carrying amount is
reduced to its recoverable amount. The reduction amount is charged to profit or loss and an impairment provision is
made accordingly.For the purpose of impairment test of goodwill the carrying amount of goodwill acquired in a business combination is
allocated to the relevant asset groups on a reasonable basis from the acquisition date; where it is difficult to allocate
to the related asset groups it is allocated to the combination of related asset groups. The related asset groups or
combination of asset groups are those which can benefit from the synergies of the business combination and are not
larger than the reportable segments identified by the Company.In the impairment test if there is any indication that an asset group or a combination of asset groups related to goodwill
may be impaired the Company 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 carried
out on the asset group or combination of asset groups containing goodwill by comparing its carrying amount with its
recoverable amount. If the recoverable amount is lower than the carrying amount an impairment loss is recognised for
goodwill.An impairment loss recognised shall not be reversed in a subsequent period.
24. Long-term prepaid expenses
The long-term prepaid expenses incurred by the Company shall be recognised based on the actual cost and evenly
amortised over the estimated benefit period. For the long-term prepaid expense that cannot benefit the subsequent
accounting periods its value after amortisation shall be entirely included in the profit or loss for the current period.
25. Contract liabilities
A contract liability represents the Company’s obligation to transfer goods to a customer for which the Company has
received consideration (or an amount of consideration is due) from the customer. If the customer has already paid
the contract consideration before the Company transfers goods to the customer or the Company has obtained the
unconditional collection right the Company will recognise such amount received or receivable as contract liabilities
at earlier of the actual payment by the customer or the amount payable becoming due. Contract assets and contract
liabilities under the same contract are presented on a net basis and contract assets and contract liabilities under
different contracts are not offset.

26. Employee benefits
(1) Scope of employee benefits
Employee benefits are all forms of considerations or compensation given by an entity in exchange for services
rendered by employees or for the termination of employment. Employee benefits include short-term staff
remuneration post-employment benefits termination benefits and other long-term employee benefits. Employee
benefits include benefits provided to employees’ spouses children other dependants survivors of the deceased
employees or other beneficiaries.Employee benefits are presented as “employee benefits payable” and “long-term employee benefits payable” in
the balance sheet respectively according to liquidity.
(2) Short-term staff remuneration
Employee wages or salaries actually incurred bonuses and social insurance contributions such as medical
insurance work injury insurance maternity insurance and housing fund contributed at the applicable benchmarks
and rates are recognised as a liability as the employees provide services with a corresponding charge to profit or
loss or included in the cost of assets where appropriate.
(3) Post-employment benefits
Post-employment benefit plans include defined contribution plans and defined benefit plans. A defined
contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which the Company pays fixed contributions into
a separate fund and the Company has no further obligations for payment. A defined benefit plan is a post-
employment benefit plan other than a defined contribution plan.Defined contribution plans
Defined contribution plans include basic pension insurance unemployment insurance and enterprise annuity plan (if
any).During the accounting period in which an employee provides service the amount payable calculated according to
the defined contribution plan is recognised as a liability and included in the profit or loss for the current period or
the cost of relevant assets.
(4) Termination benefits
When the Company provides termination benefits to employees employee benefits liabilities arising from
termination benefits are recognised in profit or loss for the current period at the earlier of the following dates: when
the Company cannot revoke unilaterally compensation for dismissal due to the cancellation of labour relationship
plans and employee redundant proposals; the Company recognises cost and expenses related to payment of
compensation for dismissal and restructuring.For the early retirement plans economic compensations before the actual retirement date were classified as
termination benefits. During the period from the date of cease of render of services to the actual retirement
date relevant wages and contribution to social insurance for the employees proposed to be paid are recognised
in profit or loss on a one-off basis. Economic compensation after the official retirement date such as normal
pension is accounted for as post-employment benefits.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 43

(5) Other long-term benefits
Other long-term employee benefits provided by the Group to employees that meet the conditions for defined
contribution plans are accounted for in accordance with the relevant provisions relating to defined contribution
plans 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 net liabilities or net assets of defined benefit plans” in the relevant employee benefits shall be
included in the current profit and loss or the relevant costs of assets.
27. Provisions
Obligations pertinent to the contingencies which satisfy the following conditions are recognised by the Company as
provisions:
(1) the obligation is a current obligation borne by the Company;
(2) it is likely that an outflow of economic benefits from the Company will be resulted from the performance of the
obligation;
(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 performance
of the current obligation after taking into account relevant risks uncertainties time value of money and other
factors pertinent to the contingencies. If the time value of money has significant influence the best estimates shall
be determined after discounting the relevant future cash outflow. The Company reviews the carrying amount of the
provisions on 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 amount
recognised shall not be more than the carrying amount of provisions.
28. Share-based payments and equity instruments
(1) Category of share-based payment
The Company’s share-based payment is either equity-settled or cash-settled.
(2) Determination of fair value of equity instruments
For the existence of an active market for options and other equity instruments granted by the Company the fair
value is determined at the quoted price in the active market. 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 shall be taken into account using option pricing models: A. the exercise price of the option; B. the validity
period of the option; C. the current market price of the share; D. the expected volatility of the share price; E.predicted dividend of the share; and F. risk-free rate of the option within the validity period.

(3) Recognition of vesting of equity instruments based on the best estimate
On each balance sheet date within the vesting period the estimated number of equity instruments expected to
vest is revised based on the best estimate made by the Company according to the latest available subsequent
information as to changes in the number of employees with exercisable rights. On the vesting date the final
estimated number of equity instruments expected to vest should equal the actual number of equity instruments
expected to vest.
(4) Accounting treatment of implementation modification and termination of share-based payment
Equity-settled share-based payment shall be measured at the fair value of the equity instruments granted to
employees. For those may immediately vest after the grant the fair value of equity instrument at the grant date
shall be included in the relevant costs or expenses and the capital reserve shall be increased accordingly.If the right may not be exercised until the vesting period comes to an end or until the specified performance
conditions are met on each balance sheet date within the vesting period the services obtained in the current
period shall based on the best estimate of the number of vested equity instruments be included in the relevant
costs or expenses and the capital reserve at the fair value of the equity instrument at the grant date. After the
vesting period relevant costs or expenses and total shareholders’ equity which have been recognised will not be
adjusted.Cash-settled share-based payment shall be measured in accordance with the fair value of liability calculated
and recognised based on the shares or other equity instruments undertaken by the Company. For those may
immediately vest after the grant the fair value of the liability undertaken by the Company shall on the date of the
grant be included in the relevant costs or expenses and the liabilities shall be increased accordingly. If the right
may not be exercised until the vesting period comes to an end or until the specified performance conditions are
met on each balance sheet date within the vesting period the services obtained in the current period shall based
on the best estimate of the information about the exercisable right be included in the relevant costs or expenses
and the corresponding liabilities at the fair value of the liability undertaken by the Company. For each of the
balance sheet date and settlement date before the settlement of the relevant liabilities fair value of the liabilities
shall be remeasured and the changes will be included in the profit or loss for the current period.When there are changes in Company’s share-based payment plans if the modification increases the fair value of
the equity instruments granted corresponding recognition of service increase in accordance with the increase in
the fair value of the equity instruments; if the modification increases the number of equity instruments granted
the increase in fair value of the equity instruments is recognised as a corresponding increase in service achieved.An increase in the fair value of equity instruments refers 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 employees
share-based payment plans to modify the terms and conditions of service it will continue to be accounted for in
the accounting treatment as if the change had not occurred unless the Company cancelled some or all of the
equity instruments granted.During the vesting period if the cancelled equity instruments (except for failure to meet the conditions of the non-
market vesting conditions) granted by the Company to cancel the equity instruments granted amount treated as
accelerated vesting of the remaining period should be recognised immediately in profit or loss while recognising
capital reserves. If employees or other parties can choose to meet non-vesting conditions but they are not met in
the vesting period the Company will treat them as cancelled equity instruments granted.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 45

(5) Restricted shares
If the Company grants the restricted shares to incentive participants under an equity incentive plan the incentive
participants shall subscribe for the shares first. If the unlocking conditions stipulated in the equity incentive plan
cannot be fulfilled subsequently the Company repurchase the shares at the predetermined price. If the registration
and other capital increase procedures for the restricted shares issued to employees are completed in accordance
with relevant regulations the Company recognises share capital and capital reserve (or capital premium) based on
the subscription money received from the employees on the grant date; and recognises treasury shares and other
payables for repurchase obligation.
29. Other financial instruments such as preference shares and Perpetual Bonds
(1) Classification of financial liabilities and equity instruments
Financial instruments issued by the Company are classified into financial assets financial liabilities or equity
instruments on the basis of the substance of the contractual arrangements and the economic nature not only
its legal form together with the definition of financial asset financial liability and equity instruments on initial
recognition.
(2) Accounting treatment of other financial instruments such as preference shares and Perpetual Bonds
Financial instruments issued by the Company are initially recognised and measured in accordance with the
financial instrument standards; thereafter interest or dividends are accrued on each balance sheet date and
accounted for in accordance with relevant specific ASBEs i.e. to determine the accounting treatment for interest
expenditure or dividend distribution of the instrument based on the classification of the financial instrument issued.For financial instruments classified as equity instruments their interest expenses or dividend distributions are
treated as profit distribution of the Company 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
in principle accounted for with reference to borrowing costs and the gains or losses arising from their repurchases
or redemption are included in the profit or loss for the current period.For the transaction costs such as fees and commissions incurred by the Company for issuing financial
instruments if such financial instruments are classified as debt instruments and measured at amortised cost they
are included in the initial measured amount of the instruments issued; if such financial instruments are classified
as equity instruments they are deducted from equity.

30. Revenue
(1) General principles
The Company recognises revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation in the contract i.e. when the
customer obtains control of the relevant goods or services.Where a contract has two or more performance obligations the Company allocates the transaction price to each
performance obligation based on the percentage of respective unit price of goods or services guaranteed by
each performance obligation and recognises as revenue based on the transaction price that is allocated to each
performance obligation.If one of the following conditions is fulfilled the Company 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 Company when the
Company performs its obligations under the contract;
* when the customer is able to control the goods in progress in the course of performance by the Company
under the contract;
* when the goods produced by the Company under the contract are irreplaceable and the Company has the
right to payment for performance completed to date during the whole contract term.For performance obligations performed within a certain period the Company recognises revenue by measuring
the progress towards complete of that performance obligation within that certain period. When the progress
of performance cannot be reasonably determined if the costs incurred by the Company are expected to be
compensated the revenue shall be recognised at the amount of costs incurred until the progress of performance
can be reasonably determined.For performance obligation performed at a point of time the Company recognises revenue at the point of time at
which the customer obtains control of relevant goods or services. To determine whether a customer has obtained
control of goods or services the Company considers the following indications:
* The Company has the current right to receive payment for the goods which is when the customer has the
current payment obligations for the goods.* The Company has transferred the legal title of the goods to the customer which is when the client
possesses the legal title of the goods.* The Company has transferred the physical possession of goods to the customer which is when the
customer obtains physical possession of the goods.* The Company 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 or services.* Other information indicates that the customer has obtained control of the goods.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 47

(2) Specific methods
The Company’s revenue mainly comes from the following types of business: sales of goods provision of hotel and
property services and provision of financial leasing and factoring services.Sales of goods
The Company produces and sells machine-made paper and raw materials electricity and steam construction
materials papermaking chemicals plastic automobile accessories moulds and other products.In terms of domestic sales revenue is recognised at a point in time when the control over the goods is transferred
after the Company has delivered the goods (other than electricity and steam) sold to the location as specified in
the contract and the customer has accepted the goods.In terms of overseas sales revenue is recognised on the day when the goods (other than electricity and steam)
sold are loaded on board and declared.The sales of electricity and steam by the Company are performance obligations performed within a certain
period. For sales of electricity the Company recognises revenue from sales of electricity based on the quantity of
electricity delivered to customers every month at a price agreed in the contract. For sales of steam the Company
recognises revenue from sales of steam based on the amount of steam delivered to customers every month at a
price agreed in the contract.The credit periods granted by the Company to customers in various industries are consistent with the practices of
various industries therefore there is no significant financing component.The Company provides product quality assurance for the sales of products and recognises corresponding
provisions. The Company does not provide any additional services or additional quality assurance so the product
quality assurance does not constitute a separate fulfilment obligation.The Company’s cooperation model with distributors is outright sales and the recognition of sales revenue under
the distribution model is consistent with the direct sales model.Certain contracts between the Company and its customers contain arrangements on sales rebates which will give
rise to variable consideration. Where a contract contains variable consideration the Company determines the best
estimates on the variable consideration based on expected values or the most probable amount provided that
transaction prices including variable consideration shall not exceed the cumulative amount of recognised revenue
upon the removal of relevant uncertainties in connection with which a significant reversal is highly unlikely.For sales of machine-made paper with sales return clauses the revenue recognised is subject to the cumulative
amount of recognised revenue in connection with which a significant reversal is highly unlikely. The Company
recognises the liabilities according to the expected amount of refund and recognises the carrying amount of the
goods returned at the time of transfer deducting the estimated cost of recovering the goods as an asset (including
the loss of the value of the returned goods).

(2) Specific methods (Cont’d)
Provision of hotel and property services
The Company provides hotel and property services to external parties. Since the customers obtain and consume
the economic benefits brought by the Company’s performance of the contract while the Company performs the
contract the Company recognises revenue according to the progress of the contract performance. Since the
performance progress occurs evenly the Company recognises revenue by amortising on a straight-line basis over
the service period.Provision of financial leasing and factoring services
The Company recognises revenue from external financial leasing and factoring services according to the effective
interest rate.For assets that have not experienced credit impairment the Company determines its interest income based on
the amount of the book balance of the financial asset (i.e. without considering the impact of impairment) multiplied
by the effective interest rate.There are two cases for financial assets with credit impairment:
For financial assets that are not credit-impaired when purchased or originated but are credit-impaired in
subsequent periods the Company shall in the subsequent periods when impairment occurs determine its
income based on the amount of the amortised cost of the financial asset (i.e. the book balance minus the accrued
impairment) multiplied by the effective interest rate (the effective interest rate determined at the time of initial
recognition which does not change due to the occurrence of impairment).For financial assets that are credit-impaired when purchased or originated the Company shall upon initial
recognition determines its income based on the amount of the amortised cost of the financial asset multiplied
by the credit-adjusted effective interest rate (i.e. the interest rate at which the projected future cash flows after
impairment are discounted to the amortised cost at the time of purchase or origination).SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 49

31. Contract costs
Contract costs are either the incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer or the costs to fulfil a contract
with a customer.Incremental costs of obtaining a contract are those costs that the Company incurs to obtain a contract with a customer
that it would not have incurred if the contract had not been obtained e.g. sales commission. The Company recognises
the incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer as an asset if it expects to recover those costs. Other
costs of obtaining a contract other than incremental costs that are expected to be recovered are recognised in profit or
loss in the period in which they are incurred.If the costs to fulfil a contract with a customer are not within the scope of inventories or other ASBEs the Company
recognises an asset from the costs incurred to fulfil a contract only if those costs meet all of the following criteria:
* the costs relate directly to an existing contract or to a specifically identifiable anticipated contract including direct
labour direct materials allocations of overheads (or similar costs) costs that are explicitly chargeable to the
customer and other costs that are incurred only because the Company entered into the contract;
* the costs generate or enhance resources of the Company that will be used in satisfying (or in continuing to satisfy)
performance obligations in the future;
* the costs are expected to be recovered.Assets recognised for the incremental costs of obtaining a contract and assets recognised for the costs to fulfil a
contract (the “assets related to contract costs”) are amortised on a systematic basis that is consistent with the transfer
to the customer of the goods or services to which the assets relate and recognised in profit or loss for the current
period. If the amortisation period does not exceed one year it shall be recognised in profit or loss for the current period.The Company recognises an impairment loss in profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of an asset related
to contract costs exceeds:
* remaining amount of consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for the goods or services to
which the asset relates;
* the cost estimated to be happened for the transfer of related goods or services.

32. Government grants
A government grant is recognised when the grant will be received and that the Company will comply with the conditions
attaching to the grant.If a government grant is in the form of a monetary asset it is measured at the amount received or receivable. If a
government grant is in the form of non-monetary asset it is measured at fair value; if the fair value 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 asset
formation are classified as government grants related to assets while the remaining government grants are classified as
government grants related to revenue.Regarding the government grant not clearly defined in the official documents and can form long-term assets the part
of government grant which can be referred to the value of the assets is classified as government grant related to assets
and 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.A government grant related to an asset shall be recognised as deferred income and evenly amortised to profit or loss
over the useful life of the asset in a reasonable and systematic manner. For a government grant related to revenue if
the grant is a compensation for related costs expenses or losses incurred the grant shall be recognised in profit or
loss for the current period or used to offset related costs; if the grant is a compensation for related costs expenses or
losses to be incurred in subsequent periods the grant shall be recognised as deferred income and recognised in profit
or loss over the periods in which the related costs expenses or losses are recognised or used to offset related costs. A
government grant measured at nominal amount is directly included in profit or loss for the current period. The Company
adopts a consistent approach to the same or similar government grants.A government grant related to daily activities is recognised in other gains or used to offset related costs relying on
the essence of economic business; otherwise recognised in non-operating income or used to offset non-operating
expenses.For the repayment of a government grant already recognised if the carrying amount of relevant assets was written off
at initial recognition the carrying amount of the assets shall be adjusted; if there is any related deferred income the
repayment shall be offset against the carrying amount of the deferred income and any excess shall be recognised in
profit or loss for the current period; otherwise the repayment shall be recognised immediately in profit or loss for the
current period.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 51

33. Deferred income tax assets/deferred income tax liabilities
Income tax comprises current income tax expense and deferred income tax expense which are included in profit or
loss for the current period as income tax expenses except for deferred tax related to transactions or events that are
directly recognised in owners’ equity which are recognised in owners’ equity and deferred tax arising from a business
combination 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 base
at the balance sheet date of the Company shall be recognised as deferred income tax using the balance sheet liability
method.All the taxable temporary differences are recognised as deferred income tax liabilities except for those incurred in the
following 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 transaction
occurs (other than a single transaction that the initially recognised assets and liabilities result in an equal amount
of taxable temporary differences and deductible temporary differences);
(2) The taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries associates and joint ventures and
the Company is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the
temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.The Company recognises a deferred income tax asset for the carry forward of deductible temporary differences
deductible losses and tax credits to subsequent periods to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits
will be available against which the deductible temporary differences deductible losses and tax credits can be utilised
except for those incurred in the following transactions:
(1) The transaction is neither a business combination nor affects accounting profit or taxable profit (or deductible loss)
when the transaction occurs (other than a single transaction that the initially recognised assets and liabilities result
in an equal amount of taxable temporary differences and deductible temporary differences);
(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 is
probable that the temporary difference will reverse in the foreseeable future and it is probable that taxable profits
will 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 tax
rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled and their tax effect is
reflected accordingly.At the balance sheet date the Company reviews the carrying amount of a deferred income tax asset. If it is probable
that sufficient 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
becomes probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available.

33. Deferred income tax assets/deferred income tax liabilities (Cont’d)
At the balance sheet date deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities are presented as the net
amount after offsetting when the following conditions are met at the same time:
(1) The tax payer within the Company has the legal right to settle current income tax assets and current income tax
liabilities on a net basis;
(2) Deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities are related to income taxes levied by the same tax
collection and administration authority on the same taxpayer within the Company.
34. Leases
(1) Identification of leases
On the beginning date of the contract the Company (as a lessee or lessor) assesses whether the customer in
the contract has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the identified asset
throughout the period of use and has the right to direct the use of the identified asset throughout the period of
use. If a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset and multiple identified assets for a
period of time in exchange for consideration the Company identifies such contract is or contains a lease.
(2) The Company 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. 35.The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the beginning
date of the lease using the interest rate implicit in the lease. Where the interest rate implicit in the lease cannot be
determined the incremental borrowing rate is used as the discount rate. Lease payments include fixed payments
and in-substance fixed payments less any lease incentives receivable; variable lease payments that are based
on an index or a rate; the exercise price of a purchase option if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise
that option; payments for terminating the lease if the lease term reflects the lessee exercising that 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 a constant
periodic rate of interest and is recognised in profit or loss for the current period. Variable lease payments not
included in the measurement of lease liabilities are recognised in profit or loss for the period in which they actually
arise.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 53

(2) The Company as lessee (Cont’d)
Short-term lease
Short-term leases refer to leases with a lease term of less than 12 months from the commencement date except
for 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 a
straight-line basis over the lease term.For short-term leases the Company chooses to adopt the above simplified approach for the following types of
assets that meet the conditions of short-term lease according to the classification of leased assets.* Low-value equipment
* Transportation vehicles
Low-value asset lease
A low-value asset lease is a lease that the value of a single leased asset is below RMB40000 when it is a new
asset.Lease payments on low-value asset leases are recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term and either
included in the cost of the related asset or charged to profit or loss for the current period.For a low-value asset lease the Company chooses the above simplified approach based on the specific
circumstances of each lease.Lease modification
The Company accounts for a lease modification as a separate lease when the modification occurs and the
following conditions are met: * the lease modification expands the scope of lease by adding the right to use
one or more of the leased assets; and * the increase in consideration is equivalent to the separate price for the
expanded scope of lease adjusted for that contractual situation.Where a lease modification is not accounted for as a separate lease at the effective date of the lease modification
the Company reallocates the consideration of the modified contract redetermines the lease term and remeasures
the lease liability based on the present value of the lease payments after the modification and the revised discount
rate.If a lease modification results in a reduction in the scope of the lease or a shortening of the lease term the
Company reduces the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset accordingly and includes in the profit or loss for
the period the gain or loss associated with the partial or complete termination of the lease.Where other lease modifications result in a remeasurement of the lease liability the Company adjusts the carrying
amount of the right-of-use asset accordingly.

(3) The Company as lessor
When the Company is a lessor a lease is classified as a finance lease whenever the terms of the lease transfer
substantially all the risks and rewards of asset ownership to the lessee. All leases other than financial leases are
classified as operating leases.Finance leases
Under finance leases the Company accounts for finance lease receivables at the beginning of the lease term at
the net lease investment which is the sum of the unsecured residual value and the present value of the lease
receipts outstanding at the commencement date of the lease discounted at the interest rate implicit in the lease.The Company as lessor calculates and recognises interest income for each period of the lease term based on
a fixed periodic interest rate. Variable lease payments acquired by the Company as lessor that are not included
in the net measurement of lease investments are included in profit or loss for the period when they are actually
incurred.Derecognition and impairment of finance lease receivables are accounted for in accordance with the requirements
under the Accounting Standard for Business Enterprises No. 22 – Recognition and Measurement of Financial
Instruments and the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 23 – Transfer of Financial Assets.Operating lease
Lease payments on short-term leases are recognised in the cost of related assets or current profit or loss on a
straight-line basis over the lease term. 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 the same basis as rental income and recognised in profit or loss for the
current period. The variable lease payments obtained in relation to operating leases that are not included in the
lease payments are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they actually incurred.Lease modification
The Company accounts for a modification in an operating lease as a new lease from the effective date of the
modification and the amount of lease receipts received in advance or receivable in respect of the lease prior to the
modification is treated as a receipt under the new lease.The Company accounts for a modification in a finance lease as a separate lease when the change occurs and
the following conditions are met: * the modification expands the scope of lease by adding the right to use one
or more of the leased assets; and * the increase in consideration is equivalent to the separate price for the
expanded scope of lease adjusted for that contractual situation.Where a finance lease is modified and not accounted for as a separate lease the Company accounts for the
modified lease in the following circumstances: * If the modification takes effect on the lease commencement
date the lease will be classified as an operating lease the Company will account for it as a new lease from the
effective date of the lease modification and use the net lease investment before the effective date of the lease
modification; * If the modification takes effect on the lease commencement date the lease will be classified as a
finance lease and the Company will conduct accounting treatment in accordance with the Accounting Standards
for Business Enterprises No. 22 – Recognition and Measurement of Financial Instruments on modifying or
renegotiating contracts.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 55

(4) Sublease
When the Company is an intermediate lessor the sublease is classified with reference to the right-of-use assets
arising from the head lease. If the head lease is a short-term lease for which the Company adopts a simplified
approach then the Company classifies the sublease as an operating lease.
(5) Sale and leaseback
The lessee and the lessor shall assess and determine whether the transfer of assets in a sale and leaseback
transaction 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-use assets created by the sale and leaseback based on the portion of carrying amount of the original assets
related to right of use obtained upon leaseback and only recognise relevant profit or loss for the right transferred
to the lessor. The lessor shall account for the purchase of assets in accordance with other applicable ASBEs and
account 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 to
recognise the transferred assets while recognising a financial liability equal to the transfer income and account
for such liability according to the Accounting Standard for Business Enterprises No. 22 – Recognition and
Measurement of Financial Instruments; or not to recognise the transferred assets but recognise a financial asset
equal to the transfer income and account for such asset according to the Accounting Standard for Business
Enterprises No. 22 – Recognition and Measurement of Financial Instruments.
35. Right-of-use assets
(1) Conditions for recognition of right-of-use assets
Right-of-use assets are defined as the right of underlying assets in the lease term for the Company as a lessee.Right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost at the commencement date of the lease. The cost includes the
amount of the initial measurement of lease liability; lease payments made at or before the inception of the lease
less any lease incentives enjoyed; initial direct costs incurred by the Company as lessee; costs to be incurred in
dismantling and removing the underlying assets restoring the site on which it is located or restoring the underlying
asset to the condition required by the terms and conditions of the lease incurred by the Company as lessee. As
a lessee the Company recognises and measures the costs of dismantling and restoration in accordance with the
Accounting Standard for Business Enterprises No. 13 – Contingencies. Subsequently the lease liability is adjusted
for any remeasurement of the lease liability.
(2) Depreciation method of right-of-use assets
The Company uses the straight-line method for depreciation. Where the Company as a lessee is reasonably
certain to obtain ownership of the leased asset at the end of the lease term such asset is depreciated over the
remaining useful life of the leased asset. Where ownership of the lease assets during the lease term cannot be
reasonably determined right-of-use assets are depreciated over the lease term or the remainder of useful lives of
the lease assets whichever is shorter.
(3) For the methods of impairment test and impairment provision of right-of-use assets please refer to Note V. 23.

36. Production safety expenses and maintenance costs
According to relevant provisions the Company makes provisions for production safety expenses based on the revenue
of the power plant in the previous year and the prescribed percentages. The specific provisions are as follows: * if
the revenue of the previous year did not exceed RMB10 million provisions would be made at 3%; * if the revenue of
the previous year exceeded RMB10 million but did not exceed RMB100 million provisions would be made at 1.5%; *
if the revenue of the previous year exceeded RMB100 million but did not exceed RMB1000 million provisions would
be made at 1%; * if the revenue of the previous year exceeded RMB1000 million but did not exceed RMB5000
million provisions would be made at 0.8%; * if the revenue of the previous year exceeded RMB5000 million but did
not exceed RMB10000 million provisions would be made at 0.6%; * if the revenue of the previous year exceeded
RMB10000 million provisions would be made at 0.2%.Provisions for production safety expenses are included in the cost of related products or profit or loss of the current
period and included in “special reserves” correspondingly.When the provisions for production safety expenses and maintenance costs are utilised within the prescribed scope
if such production safety expenses are applied and related to revenue expenditures specific reserve is directly offset.When fixed assets are incurred they are included in the “construction in progress” item and transferred to fixed assets
when the status of the assets is ready for intended use. They are then offset against specific reserve based on the
amount included in fixed assets while corresponding amount is recognised in accumulated depreciation. Such fixed
assets are no longer depreciated in subsequent periods.
37. Repurchase of shares
Prior to cancellation or transfer of shares repurchased the Company recognises all expenditures arising from share
repurchase as cost of treasury shares in the treasury share account. Considerations and transaction fee incurred from
the repurchase of shares shall lead to the elimination of owners’ equity and does not recognise profit or loss when
shares of the Company are repurchased transferred or cancelled.The difference between the actual amount received and the carrying amount of the treasury shares are recognised as
capital reserve when the treasury shares are transferred if the capital reserve is not sufficient to be offset the excess
amount shall be recognised to offset surplus reserve and retained profit. When the treasury shares are cancelled
the capital shall be eliminated according to the number of shares and par value of cancelled shares the difference
between the actual amount received and the carrying amount of the treasury shares are recognised as capital reserve
if the capital reserve is not sufficient to be offset the excess amount shall be recognised to offset surplus reserve and
retained profit.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 57

38. Debt restructuring
(1) The Company as the debtor
The debt is derecognised when the current obligation of the debt is discharged. Specifically when the uncertainty
about the execution process and results of the debt restructuring agreement is eliminated the gains and losses
related to the debt restructuring are recognised.If debt restructuring is carried out by repaying debts with assets the Company shall derecognise the relevant
assets and the debts paid off when they meet the conditions for derecognition and the difference between the
book value of the debts paid off and the book value of the transferred assets shall be included in the current profit
and loss.If the debt is converted into equity instruments for debt restructuring the Company shall derecognise the debts
paid off when they meet the conditions for derecognition. When the Company initially recognises an equity
instrument it is measured based on the fair value of the equity instrument. If the fair value of the equity instrument
cannot be measured reliably it is measured based on the fair value of the debt paid off. The difference between
the book value of the debts paid off and the recognised amount of the equity instrument shall be included in the
current profit and loss.When a debt restructuring involves the modification of other terms of a debt the Company shall recognise and
measure the restructured debts in accordance with the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 22 –
Recognition and Measurement of Financial Instruments and the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises
No. 37 – Presentation of Financial Instruments.When a debt is settled by multiple assets or combination of various methods in a debt restructuring the Company
shall recognise and measure the equity instruments and restructured debts in accordance with the aforementioned
methods and the difference between the book value of the debts paid off and the sum of the book value of the
transferred assets and the recognised amount of the equity instruments and restructured debts shall be included
in the current profit and loss.

(2) The Company as the creditor
The debt receivable are derecognised when the contractual rights to receive the cash flows under the debt
receivable expire. Specifically when the uncertainty about the execution process and results of the debt
restructuring agreement is eliminated the gains and losses related to the debt restructuring are recognised.If debt restructuring is carried out by repaying debts with assets the Company shall initially recognise assets
other than the transferred financial assets at cost. In particular the cost of inventories includes the fair value of the
debt receivable and any directly attributable expenditure including taxes transportation costs handling costs
insurance and other costs for bringing the assets to the current position and condition; the cost of investment
in associates or joint ventures includes the fair value of the debt receivable and any directly attributable taxes
and other costs; the cost of investment property includes the fair value of the debt receivable and any directly
attributable taxes and other costs; the cost of fixed assets includes the fair value of the debt receivable and
any directly attributable expenditure including taxes transportation costs handling costs installation costs
professional service fees and other costs for bringing the assets to the status for intended use; the cost of
intangible assets includes the fair value of the debt receivable and any directly attributable expenditure including
taxes for bringing the assets to the status for intended use. The difference between the fair value and the book
value of the debt receivable is included in the current profit and loss.When the debt restructuring causes the Company to convert the debt receivable to an equity investment of joint
ventures or associates the Company shall measure the equity investment based on the sum of the fair value of
debt receivable and any directly attributable taxes and other costs of the investment. The difference between the
fair value and the book value of the debt receivable is included in the current profit and loss.When a debt restructuring involves the modification of other terms of a debt the Company recognises and
measures the restructured debt receivable in accordance with the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises
No. 22 – Recognition and Measurement of Financial Instruments.When a debt is settled by multiple assets or combination of various methods in a debt restructuring the Company
first recognises and measures the financial assets received and restructured debt receivable in accordance
with the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 22 – Recognition and Measurement of Financial
Instruments and then allocates the net value which is the fair value of the debt receivable deducted by the
recognised amount of financial assets received and restructured debt receivable to the costs of nonfinancial
assets received based on their relative fair value. The difference between the fair value and the book value of the
debt receivable is included in the current profit and loss.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 59

39. Critical accounting judgments and estimates
The Company gives continuous assessment on among other things the reasonable expectations of future events and
the critical accounting estimates and key assumptions adopted according to its historical experience and other factors.The critical accounting estimates and key assumptions that are likely to lead to significant adjustment risks of the
carrying amount of assets and liabilities for the next financial year are listed as follows:
Deferred income tax assets
Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit
will be available against which the losses can be utilised. Significant management judgement is required to determine
the amount of deferred income tax assets that can be recognised based upon the likely timing and level of future
taxable profits together with future tax planning strategies.Classification of financial assets
Significant judgements involved in determining the classification of financial assets include the analysis of business
models and contractual cash flow characteristics.Factors considered by the Company in determining the business model for a group of financial assets include how the
asset’s performance is evaluated and reported to key management personnel how risks are assessed and managed
and how the relevant management personnel are compensated.When the Company assesses whether the contractual cash flows of the financial assets are consistent with basic
lending arrangements the main judgements are described as below: whether the principal amount may change over
the life of the financial asset (for example if there are repayments of principal); whether the interest includes only
consideration for the time value of money credit risk other basic lending risks and a profit margin and cost. For
example whether the amount repaid in advance reflects only the outstanding principal and interest thereon as well as
reasonable compensation paid for early termination of the contract.Measurement of the ECLs of accounts receivable
The Company calculates the ECLs of accounts receivable using the exposure to default risk and ECL rate of accounts
receivable and determines the ECL rate based on default probability and default loss rate. When determining the ECL
rate the Company adjusts its historical data by referring to information such as historical credit loss experience as well
as current situation and forward-looking information. When considering the forward-looking information indicators used
by the Company include the risk of economic downturn external market environment technology environment and
changes in customers. The assumptions relating to the ECL calculation are monitored and reviewed by the Company on
a regularly basis.Measurement of past due credit losses on finance lease receivables
The Company calculates the ECLs of financial lease receivables using the exposure to default risk and ECL rate of
financial lease receivables and determines the ECL rate based on default probability and default loss rate. When
determining the ECL rate the Company takes into account the current status and repayment ability of the counterparty
while considering the value of collateral guarantees and other credit enhancement measures related to the lease
receivables.

Deferred income tax assets
Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit
will be available against which the losses can be utilised. Significant management judgement is required to determine
the amount of deferred income tax assets that can be recognised based upon the likely timing and level of future
taxable profits together with future tax planning strategies.Impairment of goodwill
The Company assesses the impairment of goodwill at least annually which requires estimates of the use value of asset
groups allocated with goodwill. When estimating the use value the Company is required to estimate the future cash
flows from such asset groups while selecting the appropriate discount rate to calculate the present value of future cash
flows.Impairment of inventories
On the balance sheet date the Company determines the net realisable value of its inventories based on the estimated
selling prices of the inventories less costs estimated to be incurred upon completion estimated selling expenses and
related taxes. The realisable value of inventories shall be determined on the basis of definite evidence purpose of
holding the inventories and effect of after-balance-sheet-date events. If the net realisable value is below the cost of
inventories a provision for inventory impairment is made.Impairment of fixed assets and long-term equity investments
The Company assesses the impairment of fixed assets and long-term equity investments at least annually. When any
event or change in circumstances indicates that the carrying amount may not be recoverable the carrying amount of
such project is reviewed for impairment. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount impairment
loss is recognised for the difference. The recoverable amount is determined as the higher of the asset’s fair value less
costs of disposal and the present value of the asset’s estimated future cash flows. A number of assumptions are made
in estimating the recoverable amount of assets including future cash flows and discount rates relating to non-current
assets. If future events differ from these assumptions the recoverable amount shall be revised which may have an
impact on the operations or financial position of the Company.

Explanation: All the accounts receivable financing of the Company were bank acceptance bills. Since the terms
of the bank acceptance bills did not exceed one year and both parties to the endorsement of the bills agreed to
offset equal amounts of accounts receivable and payable based on the face value of the bills fair value equalled
amortised cost.Certain subsidiaries of the Company discount and endorse part of the bank acceptance bills based on their daily
capital management needs. Therefore the bank acceptance bills of the subsidiaries are classified as financial
assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income.The Company has no bank acceptance bill assessed individually for impairment provision. At the end of the
period the Company believed that there was no significant credit risk in the bank acceptance bills held and no
major losses would be incurred due to default of banks.

* For classification and amount of mortgage borrowings and mortgage assets please see 1. Monetary funds

reclassified long-term payables that were past due and non-current liabilities that were previously reported

require the borrower to immediately repay the full amount of the loan. Since the above debts had triggered
the default clause in the contract and no extension agreement had been reached with the creditors on
the balance sheet date based on the characteristics of liquidity risk and the immediacy of repayment
obligations the Company adjusted the full amount of the book balance to the “other current liabilities”
account.* Among mortgage borrowings borrowings of RMB2865831101.20 have been guaranteed by related
parties.* Long-term borrowings included accrued interest of RMB2254042.96.

(3) Market risk
Market risk for financial instrument refers to the risk that the fair value or future cash flow of a financial instrument
will be fluctuated due to the changes in market price and includes interest rate risk exchange rate risk and other
price risk.Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk refers to the risk that the fair value or future cash flow of a financial instrument will be fluctuated
due to the floating rate. Interest rate risk arises from recognised interest-bearing financial instrument and
unrecognised financial instrument (e.g. loan commitments).The Company’s interest rate risk arises from long-term interest-bearing liabilities including long-term borrowing
and bonds payable. Financial liabilities issued at floating rate expose the Company to cash flow interest rate
risk. Financial liabilities issued at fixed rate expose the Company to fair value interest rate risk. The Company
determines the relative proportions of its fixed rate and floating rate contracts depending on the prevailing market
conditions and to maintain an appropriate combination of financial instruments at fixed rate and floating rate
through regular reviews and monitors.The Company closely monitors the interest rate position of the Company. The Company did not enter into any
interest rate hedging arrangements. However the management is responsible to monitor the risks of interest
rate and consider to hedge significant interest risk if necessary. Increase in interest rates will increase the cost
of new borrowing and the interest expenses with respect to the Company’s outstanding floating rate interest-
bearing borrowings and therefore could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial result. The
management will make adjustments with reference to the latest market conditions. These adjustments may
include enter into interest swap agreement to mitigate its exposure to the interest rate risk.Interest bearing financial instrument held by the Company are as follows (in RMB’0000):

Interest rate risk (Cont’d)
The financial instruments held by the Company at the reporting date expose the Company to fair value interest
rate risk. This sensitivity analysis as above has been determined assuming that the change in interest rates had
occurred at the reporting date and arisen from the recalculation of the above financial instrument issued at new
interest rates. The non-derivative tools issued at floating interest rate held by the Company at the reporting date
expose the Company to cash flow interest rate risk. The effect to the net profit and shareholder’s equity illustrated
in the sensitivity analysis as above is arisen from the effect to the annual estimate amount of interest expenses or
revenue at the floating interest rate. The analysis is performed on the same basis for prior year.Exchange rate risk
Exchange risk refers to the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will be fluctuated
due to the changes in foreign currency rates. Foreign currency risk arises on financial instruments that are
denominated in a currency other than the functional currency in which they are measured.The principal business of the Company is situated within the PRC and is denominated in RMB. However foreign
exchange risks still exist for the assets and liabilities in foreign currencies and future foreign currency transactions
as recognised by the Company (assets and liabilities in foreign currencies and foreign currency transactions are
mainly denominated in US dollar Euro Hong Kong dollar and Japanese yen).The following table details the financial assets and liabilities held by the Company which denominated in foreign
currencies and amounted to RMB as at 30 June 2025 are as follows (in RMB’0000):

(1) In the case of the equity financing business dispute between Chenming Holdings (Hong Kong) Limited (hereinafter
referred to as “Chenming Holdings (Hong Kong)”)a wholly-owned subsidiary of Chenming Holdings Company
Limited (hereinafter referred to as “Chenming Holdings”) and three overseas institutions (hereinafter referred to
as “Lenders”) over the Company’s 210.72 million B shares (representing 7.16% of the total share capital of the
Company) and 153.41 million H shares (representing 5.22% of the total share capital of the Company) Chenming
Holdings (Hong Kong) had appointed counsel to take litigation and arbitration measures in the courts of the
relevant jurisdictions.On 28 June 2024 Chenming Holdings (Hong Kong) filed a complaint with the New York Court of the United
States. On 29 October 2024 the New York Court of the United States held a pre-trial conference and ordered that
the plaintiffs and the defendant must complete two rounds of cross-examinations before 28 February 2025.On 22 November 2024 Chenming Holdings (Hong Kong) filed an amended complaint with the US court; and
on 15 February 2025 it filed a reply to the defendant’s defence pending further instructions from the court on
subsequent procedures.As of the date of this announcement Chenming Holdings is actively safeguarding its legitimate rights and interests
via legal means
There is a risk that the shares involved may not be returned which may result in a decrease in the percentage of
shareholding of Chenming Holdings in the Company but will have no impact on the status of Chenming Holdings
as the largest shareholder and will have no impact on the control of the Company.
(2) On 14 June 2022 the Hong Kong Court of Final Appeal handed down its judgment in the case of H-share
liquidation filed by ArjowigginsHKK2Limited (“HKK2 Company”) in relation to the Company’s Joint Venture dispute
and the Company has paid the relevant amount of compensation.On 25 October 2022 the Company instructed its legal adviser in Hong Kong to apply to the Court of First Instance
to seek the dismissal or adjournment of the winding-up petition filed by HKK2 against the Company On 25 July
2023 the Court of First Instance held a hearing on the said application.
On 10 August 2023 the Company received a judgment from the judge of the Court of First Instance Mr. Justice
Harris which ruled that the winding-up petition be stayed given that the Company’s arbitration petition filed
in the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre in June 2022 against the Joint Venture Contracts formed the
basis of the Company’s cross claim against HKK2 in the winding-up proceedings. The relevant arbitration hearing
was heard at the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre in May 2024. At present the parties have reached a
settlement and the case has been concluded.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 167
