Siam Makro Public Company Limited Notes to the Consolidated and Company Financial Statements For the years ended 31 December 1999 and 1998 1 Significant Accounting Policies The principle accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these consolidated and company financial statements which have been applied consistently, are set out below: 1.1 Basis for preparation The consolidated and company financial statements are prepared in accordance with and comply with accounting principles generally accepted in Thailand. The consolidated and company financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation of certain property, plant and equipment. 1.2 Consolidation Subsidiary undertakings which are those companies in which the Group, directly, has an interest of more than one half of the voting rights or otherwise has power to exercise control over the financial and operating policies, have been consolidated. Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which effective control's transferred to the Group. Significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements. Where necessary accounting policies for subsidiaries have been changed to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group. The minority interest is immaterial and not, therefore, shown separately in the consolidated financial statements. 1.3 Investment in subsidiaries Investment in subsidiary undertakings are accounted for in the Company financial statements by the equity method of accounting. These undertakings are over which the Company has over 50% of the voting rights, and over which the Company exercise control. Provisions are recorded for impairment in value. Equity method of accounting involves recognising in the income statements the Company's share of the subsidiaries' profit or loss for the year. The Company's interest in the subsidiary is carried in the balance sheet an amount that reflects its share of the net assets of the subsidiaries. 1.4 Foreign currencies Foreign currency transactions in the Group are accounted for at the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transactions. Gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, are recognised in the income statements. Such balances are translated at year- end exchange rates unless hedged by forward foreign exchange contracts, in which case the rates specified in such forward contracts are used. 1.5 Trade accounts receivable Trade accounts receivable are carried at anticipated realisable value. An estimate is made for doubtful receivables based on a review of all outstanding amounts at the year end. Bad debts are written off during the year in which they are identified. Allowance for doubtful account is provided according to the estimated losses that may be incurred in the collections from accounts receivable. The estimated losses are determined by the collection experience and the current status of accounts receivable. 1.6 Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realisable value. Cost is determined on the latest purchase price which is approximate to cost determined on a first-in first-out basis. The cost of purchase comprises both the purchase price and costs directly attributable to the acquisition of the inventory, such as import duties and transportation charge, less all attributable discounts , allowances or rebates. Net realisable value is the estimate of the selling price of selling in the ordinary course of business, less the costs of completion and selling expenses. Provision is made where necessary for obsolete, slow-moving and shrinkage inventories. 1.7 Property, plant and equipment All property, plant and equipment is initially recorded at cost, and is stated at cost less subsequent depreciation. Property held for sale or under future development is initially recorded at cost and subsequently shown at appraised value, based on valuations by external independent valuers. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line method to write off the cost of each asset except for land as it is deemed to have an indefinite life , or the revalued amounts, to their residual values over their estimated useful life which range from 5 - 20 years. Leasehold rights are amortised by the straight-line method over the period of agreements, which range from 6 - 27 years. Where the carrying amount of an assets is greater than its estimated recoverable amount, it is written down immediately to its recoverable amount. Estimated recoverable amount is the higher of the anticipated discounted cash flows from the continuing use of the asset and the amount obtainable from the sale of the asset less any cost of disposal. Gains and losses on disposal of property, plant and equipment are determined by reference to their carrying amount and are taken into account in determining operating profit. 1.8 Provisions Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation can be made. 1.9 Provident fund and provision for retirement indemnity The Group operates a provident fund, being a defined contribution plan, the asset for which are held in a separate trustee- administered fund. The provident fund is funded by payments from employees and by the relevant Group companies. The Group's contributions to the provident fund are charged to the income statements in the years to which they related. Provision for retirement indemnity is made for employees whose length of service exceeds 3 years and is normally payable on termination of service. The calculation is based on the latest basic salary multiplied by the years of each employee's service as set out in the Group companies' retirement indemnity plan. 1.10 Provision for warranty claim Provision for warranty claim represents the estimated liabilities due under warranties given on products and services of a subsidiary. This provision is calculated based on claim history and management 's expectation of future claim. 1.11 Revenue recognition Sales are recognised upon delivery of products and customer acceptance, if any, or performance of services , net of discounts. For consolidated financial statements , inter-group sales are eliminated. Services income earned by the Group are recognised on an accrual basis in accordance with the substance of the relevant agreement. 1.12 Comparatives Where necessary, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform with changes in presentation in the current year. In 1999, the Group implemented following new Thai Accounting Standards namely: TAS 32 - Property, Plant and Equipment TAS 35 - Presentation of Financial Statements TAS 36 - Impairment of Assets TAS 37 - Revenue Recognition TAS 38 - Earnings per Share TAS 39 - Net Profit or Loss for the Period, Fundamental Errors and Accounting Changes There are no changes in accounting policy resulting from the adoption of the above standards in these financial statements, as the Group was already following the recognition and measurement principles in these standards, except for the adoption of TAS 36 - Impairment of Assets as explained in Note 8. 2 Change in accounting policy In the third quarter ended 30 September 1999, in accordance with the recent developments in International Accounting Standards and Thai Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, the Company reviewed its accounting policy in respect of capitalisation of certain intangible assets including Deferred development rights and Pre-opening and start up expenses. As a result of this review, the Company changed its accounting policy to expense such costs as incurred. The Company therefore accounted for the change in accounting policy retrospectively by adjustments to the opening balance of retained earnings as at 1 January 1999 and 1998. The effect of the change reduced previously reported balances included in the consolidated balance sheets and company's balance sheets as at 1 January 1999 and 1998 as follows : 1 January 1999 Consolidated Company Baht Baht Deferred development rights 35,161,766 - Pre-opening and start-up expenses 154,590,905 139,969,477 Investment in subsidiaries - 49,783,194 Opening retained earnings 189,752,671 189,752,671 1 January 1998 Consolidated Company Baht Baht Deferred development rights 46,272,472 - Pre-opening and start-up expenses 189,729,267 174,650,292 Investment in subsidiaries - 61,351,447 Opening retained earnings 236,001,739 236,001,739 In addition, the effect of the change resulted in increase of net profit and earnings per share of 1999 and 1998 as follows : Consolidated and Company 1999 1998 Baht Baht Increase in net profit 46,423,745 46,249,068 Increase in earnings per share 0.19 0.19 3 Cash on hand and at banks Consolidated 1999 1998 Baht Baht Cash on hand 325,614,609 285,255,503 Deposits held at call with banks 2,776,790,000 3,158,770,796 3,102,404,609 3,444,026,299 Company 1999 1998 Baht Baht Cash on hand 315,459,921 276,924,346 Deposits held at call with banks 2,701,273,000 3,051,131,015 3,016,732,921 3,328,055,361 4 Short-term investments As at 31 December 1999 and 1998, short-term investments comprise fixed deposits and bills of exchange bearing interest at rates 1.00-3.00% per annum.
