washing machine greeted the world in the Company. With 37 years of focus on washing machines, the Company

mainly produces front-loading washing machines (also known as “roller washing machines”) and top-loading

washing machines (also “pulsator washing machines”). Pulsator washing machines can be divided into fully-auto

ones and double-cylinder ones according to structure. Currently, these three kinds of washing machines are the

mainstream in the market. In 2015, the Company produced and sold over 14 million units of such washing

machines, with the second largest market share in China’s washing machine industry. In addition, the Company

can also produce clothes dryers and agitator washing machines. The recent years have witnessed a fast growth in

sale, we focus on OEM and attach importance to our own brands at the same time. We adopt a two-brand strategy

(“Little Swan” and “Midea”) and the business under both brands has seen fast and sound growth in the recent

years.

Section IV. Discussion & Analysis by Management

I. Business review

I. Macro-environment

In 2015, China’s economy was in a “new normal state” featuring stable development at a low level due to

structural adjustment and transformation. Affected by the macro economic environment, slow recovery in the real

estate market, etc, growth in domestic sale of home appliances was weak. And the export market as a whole was

also sluggish because the international economy was being hit by political and economic chaos, considerable

fluctuations in exchange rates, fading of the competitive edge of China’s home appliances in cost and so on.

However, the home appliance industry maintained a good momentum in consumption and transformation by

upgrading in spite of the slowdown in growth.

In 2015, the structure of washing machine products was further optimized, with roller, large-capacity, inverter and

smart products growing fast and becoming a new engine for the development of the industry. Traditional channels

were battered while the e-commerce channel rose quickly. The traditional way of manufacturing, stocking and

selling in a large size was in face of a serious challenge. In the reporting period, the washing machine industry

became more centralized due to slowing growth and increasing competition. According to statistics from

ChinaIOL, China sold a total of 56.1369 million units of washing machines in Jan.-Dec. 2015, down 0.40% from

the year earlier, of which 39.0534 million units were sold domestically, representing a YoY growth of 3.78%, and

17.0836 million units were exported, decreasing 8.80% year on year.

II. Main business analysis

In face of rapid changes in domestic and overseas environments, closely adhering to the strategic axis of “leading

products, efficiency-driven and global operation”, we focused on our main business, firmly pushed forward

organizational reform and operating transformation with customers as the center and production & sale as the

main line, and kept improving our capability in lean management and profitability. In 2014, we continued to

optimize our product structure, improve our product quality and steadily increase the operating efficiency, which

further solidified our capability of sustainable development. For the reporting period, the Company achieved

operating revenues of RMB13.132 billion, up 21.54% from the year earlier; net profit attributable to shareholders

of the Company stood at RMB919 million, representing a YoY growth of 31.65%; and the overall gross profit rate

stood at 26.54%, increasing by 0.66 percentage points from last year.

The revenue growth was mainly attributed to an increased sales volume, which was further attributed to optimized

structures. Firstly, the product structure was optimized. Through our continuous efforts in product innovation, our

product competitiveness and structure continued to improve, with a larger proportion of roller washing machines

and a smaller proportion of double-cylinder products. Secondly, the channel structure was optimized. We

vigorously pushed forward marketing reform, boosting growth in both the domestic and overseas sales, of which

13

2015 Annual Report of Wuxi Little Swan Company Limited

the domestic online sales increased significantly from last year and the sales to Europe witnessed fast growth.

Finally, the brand structure was optimized. Steady growth in the sales of products under the “Little Swan” brand

as well as fast growth in the sales of products under the “Midea” brand both contributed to the growth in the total

sales. In the reporting period, sales of the Company went up 27% from last year, a lot higher than the average

growth in the industry.

The profit growth was attributed to a larger business scale, an increased gross profit margin as well as more

investment gains. Our product structure was further optimized, with a larger proportion of high-gross-profit

products. Our operating efficiency was obviously improved, with operating costs decreasing from last year due to

low prices of raw materials. The Company had more self-owned funds and gained more from investments with the

said funds. The reporting period also saw considerable increase in our profitability.

The financial statements of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2015 are in compliance

with the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises, and truly and completely present the

financial position of the Group and the Company as of 31 December 2015 and the operating results,

4 Functional currency

The functional currency is Renminbi (RMB).

5 Accounting method for business combinations involving enterprises under common control

and not under common control

(a) Business combinations involving enterprises under common control

The consideration paid and net assets obtained by the absorbing party in a business combination are

measured at the carrying amount. The difference between the carrying amount of the net assets

obtained from the combination and the carrying amount of the consideration paid for the

combination is treated as an adjustment to capital surplus (share premium). If the capital surplus

(share premium) is not sufficient to absorb the difference, the remaining balance is adjusted against

retained earnings. Costs directly attributable to the combination are included in profit or loss in the

period in which they are incurred. Transaction costs associated with the issue of equity or debt

securities for the business combination are included in the initially recognised amounts of the equity

or debt securities.

(b) Business combinations involving enterprises not under common control

The cost of combination and identifiable net assets obtained by the acquirer in a business

combination are measured at fair value at the acquisition date. Where the cost of the combination

84

2015 Annual Report of Wuxi Little Swan Company Limited

exceeds the acquirer’s interest in the fair value of the acquirer’s identifiable net assets, the difference

is recognised as goodwill; where the cost of combination is lower than the acquirer’s interest in the

fair value of the acquirer’s identifiable net assets, the difference is recognised in profit or loss for the

current period. Costs directly attributable to the combination are included in profit or loss in the

period in which they are incurred. Transaction costs associated with the issue of equity or debt

securities for the business combination are included in the initially recognised amounts of the equity

or debt securities.

V Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (continued)

6 Basis of preparation of consolidated financial statements

The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Company and all of its

subsidiaries.

Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which the Company obtains control and are

de-consolidated from the date that such control ceases. For a subsidiary that is acquired in a business

combination involving enterprises under common control, it is included in the consolidated financial

statements from the date when it, together with the Company, comes under common control of the

ultimate controlling party. The portion of the net profits realised before the combination date is

presented separately in the consolidated income statement.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, where the accounting policies and the accounting

periods of the Company and subsidiaries are inconsistent, the financial statements of the subsidiaries

are adjusted in accordance with the accounting policies and the accounting period of the Company. For

subsidiaries acquired from business combinations involving enterprises not under common control, the

individual financial statements of the subsidiaries are adjusted based on the fair value of the

identifiable net assets at the acquisition date.

All significant intra-group balances, transactions and unrealised profits are eliminated in the

consolidated financial statements. The portion of a subsidiary’s equity and the portion of a subsidiary’s

net profits, losses and comprehensive income for the period not attributable to the Company are

recognised as minority interests and presented separately in the consolidated financial statements

within equity, net profits and total comprehensive income respectively. Unrealised gain or loss from

selling assets to subsidiaries fully offsets the net income attributable to equity holders of the company.

Unrealised gain or loss from purchasing assets from subsidiaries offsets the net income attributable to

equity holders of the company and atrributable to the minority interest by the distribution proportion

regarding the company and the subsidiary. Unrealised gain or loss from transaction between

subsidiaries offsets the net income attributable to equity holders of the company and atrributable to the

minority interest by the distribution proportion regarding the company and the selling side of the

subsidiaries.

If different recognition perspectives for the same transaction arise within different accounting identities

setup, there is adjustment for the transaction from the Group’s perspective.

subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

V Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (continued)

8 Foreign currency business and translation

(a)(a) Foreign currency transactions

Foreign currency transactions are translated into RMB using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates

of the transactions.

At the balance sheet date, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into RMB

using the spot exchange rates on the balance sheet date. Exchange differences arising from these

translations are recognised in profit or loss for the current period, except for those attributable to

foreign currency borrowings that have been taken out specifically for the acquisition or construction of

qualifying assets, which are capitalised as part of the cost of those assets. Non-monetary items

denominated in foreign currencies that are measured at historical costs are translated at the balance

sheet date using the spot exchange rates at the date of the transactions. The effect of exchange rate

changes on cash is presented separately in the cash flow statement.

(b) Foreign currency financial statements translations

rate on the balance sheet date. Items in Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity are translated

into RMB using the spot exchange rate at the date of the transactions, except for the retained earnings.

exchange rate at the date of the transactions. The translation differences of foreign currency

transactions are presented in other comprehensive income. Cash flow items, which are oversea

operating, are translated into RMB using the spot exchange rate at the date of the cash in or cash out.

9 Financial Instruments

(a) Financial assets

(i) Classification

Financial assets are classified into the following categories at initial recognition: financial assets at fair

value through profits or losses, receivables, available-for-sale financial assets and held-to-maturity

investments. The classification of financial assets depends on the intention of the Company and its

subsidiaries and ability to hold the financial assets.

The financial assets held by the Company and its subsidiaries include financial assets at fair value

through profits or losses, receivables and available-for-sale financial assets.

86

2015 Annual Report of Wuxi Little Swan Company Limited

Financial assets at fair value through profits or losses

Financial assets at fair value through profits or losses are derivatives, especially forward foreign

exchange contracts.

V Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (continued)

9 Financial Instruments (continued)

(a) Financial assets (continued)

(i) Classification (continued)

Receivables

Receivables, including notes receivable, accounts receivable, other receivables and structured

deposits, are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted

in an active market.

Available-for-sale financial assets

Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that are designated to be

available for sale upon initial recognition and financial assets not classified in any other categories.

Available-for-sale financial assets are included in other current assets if management intends to

dispose of them within 12 months from balance sheet date.

(ii) Recognition and measurement

Financial assets are recognized at fair value on the balance sheet when the Company and its

subsidiaries become a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument. Transaction

costs that are attributable to the acquisition of the financial assets at fair value through profits or

losses are included in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred, and transaction costs

that are attributable to the acquisition of other financial assets are included in their initially

recognized amounts.

Financial assets at fair value through profits or losses and available-for-sale financial assets are

subsequently measured at fair value. Investments in equity instruments are measured at cost when

they do not have a quoted market price in an active market and whose fair value cannot be reliably

measured. Receivables and held-to-maturity investments are measured at amortised cost using the

effective interest method.

Gains or losses arising from change in fair value of financial assets at fair value through profits or

losses are recognized as change in fair value in profit or loss for the period in which they are

incurred. Interests, cash dividends arising from its holding period and gains or losses arising from

the disposition are included in profit or loss for the period in which they are incurred.

除减 Gains or losses arising from change in fair value of available-for-sale financial assets are recognized

directly in equity, except for impairment losses and foreign exchange gains and losses arising from

translation of monetary financial assets. When such financial assets are derecognized, the

87

2015 Annual Report of Wuxi Little Swan Company Limited

cumulative gains or losses previously recognized directly into equity are recycled into profit or loss

for the current period. Cash dividends declared by the investee on available-for-sale investments in

equity instruments are recognized as investment income, which is recognized in profits or losses for

the period.

V Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (continued)

9 Financial Instruments (continued)

(a) Financial assets (continued)

(iii) Impairment of financial assets

The Company and its subsidiaries assess the carrying amount of financial assets other than those at

fair value through profits or losses at each balance sheet date. If there is objective evidence that the

financial asset is impaired, an impairment loss is provided for.

The objective evidence are matters that occur after the financial assets been recognised, affect its

estimated future cash flow and could be measured accuractly by the Company and its subsidiaries.

表明 The objective evidence, of which provided for available-for-sale equity instruments being impaired,

includes an investment in an equity instrument with serious or prolonged decline. the Company and

its subsidiaries assess available-for-sale equity instruments at each balance sheet date. If the fair

value of equity instruments is less than its initial investment cost of more than 50% (including

50%), or less than the duration of its initial investment cost of more than one year (including one

year), it indicates that the equity instruments are impaired. If the fair value of equity instruments is

less than its initial investment cost of more than 20% (including 20%) to 50% (not including 50%),

the Company and its subsidiaries will consider other relevant factors such as ratios of price

fluctuation to judge that whether equity instruments are impaired. The Company and its

subsidiaries measured the initial investment cost of available-for-sale equity instruments using the

weighted average method.

When an impairment loss on a financial asset carried at amortized cost has been incurred, the

amount of loss is measured at the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present

value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred). If

there is objective evidence that the value of the financial asset recovered and the recovery is related

objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized, the previously recognized

impairment loss is reversed and the amount of reversal is recognized in profits or losses.

When an impairment loss on available-for-sale financial assets incurred, the cumulative losses

arising from the decline in fair value that had been recognized directly in equity are transferred out

from equity and into impairment loss. For an investment in debt instrument classified as

available-for-sale on which impairment losses have been recognized, if, in a subsequent period, its

fair value increases and the increase can be objectively related to an event occurring after the

impairment loss was recognized in profit or loss, the previously recognized impairment loss is

88

2015 Annual Report of Wuxi Little Swan Company Limited

reversed into profit or loss for the current period. For an investment in an equity instrument

classified as available-for-sale on which impairment losses have been recognized, the increase in its

fair value in a subsequent period is recognized directly in equity.

If an impairment loss incurred on a financial asset carried at amortized cost, the amount of loss is

measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated

future cash flows discounted at the current market rate of return for a similar financial asset and

cannot be revert in the subsequent periods.

V Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (continued)

9 Financial Instruments (continued)

(a) Financial assets (continued)

(iv) Derecognition of financial assets

Financial assets are derecognised when: i) the contractual rights to receive the cash flows from the

financial assets have expired; or ii) substantial risks and rewards of ownership of the financial assets

have been transferred; or iii) the control over the financial asset has been waived even if the

Company and its subsidiaries does not transfer or retain nearly all of the risks and rewards relating

to the ownership of a financial asset.

On derecognition of a financial asset, the difference between the carrying amount and the aggregate

of consideration received and the accumulative amount of the changes of fair value originally

recorded in the owner’s equity is recognised in the profit or loss.

(b) Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are classified into the following categories at initial recognition: the financial

liabilities at fair value through profit or loss and other financial liabilities. The financial liabilities in

the Company and its subsidiaries mainly comprise of other financial liabilities, including payables

and borrowings.

Payables comprise accounts payable and other payables, which are recognised initially at fair value

and measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Borrowings are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred, and subsequently

carried at amortised costs using the effective interest method.

Other financial liabilities are classified as current liabilities if they mature within one year (one year

included); others are classified as non-current liabilities; non-current liabilities due for repayment

within one year since the balance sheet date are classified as current portion of non-current

liabilities.

A financial liability (or a part of financial liability) is derecognised when and only when the

obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled. The difference between the carrying

amount of a financial liability (or a part of financial liability) extinguished and the consideration

89

2015 Annual Report of Wuxi Little Swan Company Limited

paid is recognised in profit or loss.

(c) Determination of the fair value of the financial instruments

The fair value of a financial instrument that is traded in an active market is determined at the quoted

price in the active market. The fair value of a financial instrument for which the market is not active is

determined by using a valuation technique. Valuation techniques include using prices of recent market

transactions between knowledgeable, willing parties, reference to the current fair value of another

financial asset that is substantially the same with this instrument, and discounted cash flow analysis.

When a valuation technique is used to establish the fair value of a financial instrument, management

uses market data as much as possible and avoids use of data that is particularly related to the

Company and its subsidiaries.

V Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (continued)

10 Receivables

(1) The recognition criteria and method of provision for impairment of receivables those are

individually significant:

The criteria for individually significant receivables: the amount of account receivable individually

accounts for over 10% (including 10%) of total amount of accounts receivable on balance sheet date

or is individually more than RMB 10,000,000.00 (including RMB 10,000,000.00); the amount of

other receivable individually accounts for over 10% (including 10%) of total amount of other

receivable on balance sheet date or is individually more than RMB 5,000,000.00 (including RMB

5,000,000.00);

The provision for impairment of the receivables that are individually significant is established at the

difference between the carrying amount of the receivable and the present value of estimated future

cash flows.

(2) The recognition criteria and method of provision for impairment of receivables grouped on the basis

of similar credit risk:

Group Provision of bad debt method

Group based on aging of receivables Aging analysis method

A provision for impairment of the receivables is made based on the aging of receivables at the

following percentage:

Over 5 years 100.00% 100.00%

(3) The recognition criteria and method of provision for impairment of receivables those are not

individually significant:

Receivables that are not individually significant are subject to separate impairment assessment if

there is objective evidence that the Company and its subsidiaries will not be able to collect the full

amounts according to the original terms.

The provision for impairment of the receivables is established at the difference between the carrying

amount of the receivables and the present value of estimated future cash flows.

When the Company and its subsidiaries transfer the accounts receivable to the financial institutions

without recourse, the difference between the proceeds received from the transaction and their

carrying amounts and the related taxes is recognised in profit or loss for the current period.

V Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (continued)

11 Inventories

(a) Classification

Inventories include raw materials, work in progress, finished goods and turnover materials, and are

presented at the lower of cost and net realizable value.

(b) Determination of cost

Cost is determined on the weighted average method. The cost of finished goods and work in

progress comprises raw materials, direct labour and an allocation of all production overhead

expenditures incurred based on normal operating capacity.

(c) The determination of net realizable value and the method of provisions for impairment of inventories

Provisions for declines in the value of inventories are determined at the carrying value of the

inventories net of their net realizable value. Net realizable value is determined based on the

estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs to completion and

estimated costs necessary to make the sale and relevant taxes.

(d) The Company and its sudsidiaries adopt the perpetual inventory system.

(e) Amortisation methods of low value consumables and packaging materials

Turnover materials include low value consumables and packaging materials, which are expensed

when issued.

12 Long-term equity investments

长 期 Long-term equity investments comprise the Company’s long-term equity investments in its

subsidiaries and the long-term equity investments of the Company and its subsidiaries in its

91

2015 Annual Report of Wuxi Little Swan Company Limited

associates.

Subsidiaries are all entities over which the Company is able to control. Associates are all entities

over which the Company and its subsidiaries has significant influence, but not control, on their

financial and operating policies.

Investments in subsidiaries are measured using the cost method in the Company’s financial

statements, and adjusted by using the equity method when preparing the consolidated financial

statements. Interests in associates are accounted for using the equity method.

(a) Determination of investment cost

For long-term equity investments acquired through a business combination: for long-term equity

investments 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 owners’ equity of

the party being absorbed at the combination date; for long-term equity investment acquired through

a business combination involving enterprises not under common control, the investment cost shall

be the combination cost.

For long-term equity investments acquired not through a business combination: for long-term equity

investment acquired by payment in cash, the initial investment cost shall be the purchase price

actually paid; for long-term equity investment acquired by issuing equity securities, the initial

investment cost shall be the fair value of the equity securities.

V Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (continued)

12 Long-term equity investments (continued)

(b) Subsequent measurement and recognition of related profits and losses

For long-term equity investments accounted for using the cost method, they are measured at the

initial investment costs, and cash dividends or profits distribution declared by the investees are

recognised as investment income in profits or losses.

For long-term equity investments accounted for using the equity method, where the initial

investment cost of a long-term equity investment exceeds the Company and its subsidiaries’ share of

the fair value of the investee’s identifiable net assets at the acquisition date, the long-term equity

investment is measured at the initial investment cost; where the initial investment cost is less than

the share of the Company and its subsidiaries of the fair value of the investee’s identifiable net

assets at the acquisition date, the difference is included in profits or losses and the cost of the

long-term equity investment is adjusted upwards accordingly.

For long-term equity investments accounted for using the equity method, the Company and its

subsidiaries recognize the investment income according to its share of net profit or loss of the

investee. The Company and its subsidiaries discontinue recognizing its share of net losses of an

investee after the carrying amount of the long-term equity investment together with any long-term

interests that, in substance, form part of the investor’s net investment in the investee are reduced to

92

2015 Annual Report of Wuxi Little Swan Company Limited

zero. However, if the Company and its subsidiaries have obligations for additional losses and the

criteria with respect to recognition of provisions under the accounting standards on contingencies

are satisfied, the Company and its subsidiaries continue recognizing the investment losses and the

provisions. For changes in owners’ equity of the investee other than those arising from its net profit

or loss,other comprehensive income and profit distribution, the Company and its subsidiaries record

its proportionate share directly into capital surplus, provided that the proportion of the Company and

its subsidiaries of shareholding in the investee remains unchanged. The carrying amount of the

investment is reduced by the share of the Company and its subsidiaries of the profit distribution or

cash dividends declared by an investee. The unrealized profits or losses arising from the intra-group

transactions amongst the Company, its subsidiaries and its investees are eliminated in proportion to

the equity of the Company and its subsidiaries interest in the investees, and then based on which the

investment gains or losses are recognised. For the loss on the intra-group transaction amongst the

Company, its subsidiaries and its investees attributable to asset impairment, any unrealized loss is

not eliminated.

(c) Basis for determine existence of control, joint control or significant influence over investees

Control is the power to govern the financial and operating policies of the investee so as to obtain

benefits from its operating activities. When determining whether to control the investees or not, the

potential voting rights, of which convertible bonds and executable warrants issued by the investees

in current period, should be considered as well.

Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control over an economic activity, and exists only

when the strategic financial and operating decisions relating to the activity require the unanimous

consent of the parties sharing control.

Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the

investee, but is not control or joint control over those policies.

V Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (continued)

12 Long-term equity investments (continued)

(d) Impairment of long-term equity investments

The carrying amount of long-term equity investments in subsidiaries and associates is reduced to the

recoverable amount when the recoverable amount is less than the carrying amount (Note V (18)).

13 Investment properties

Method of depreciation or amortization

Investment properties, including land use rights that have already been leased out and buildings that

are held for the purpose of leasing, are measured initially at cost. Subsequent expenditures incurred

in relation to an investment property are included in the cost of the investment property when it is

probable that the associated economic benefits will flow to the Company and its subsidiaries and

their costs can be reliably measured; otherwise, the expenditures are recognised in profit or loss in

93

2015 Annual Report of Wuxi Little Swan Company Limited

the period in which they are incurred.

The Company and its subsidiaries adopt the cost model for subsequent measurement of investment

properties. Buildings and land use rights are depreciated or amortised to their estimated net residual

values over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful lives, the estimated net residual values

that are expressed as a percentage of cost and the annual depreciation (amortisation) rates of

investment properties are as follows:

Estimated useful Estimated residual Annual depreciation

lives value (amortization) rates

Buildings 20-35 years 5.00% 2.71% to 4.75%

Land use rights 50 years - 2.00%

When an investment property is transferred to owner-occupied properties, it is reclassified as fixed

asset or intangible asset at the date of the transfer. When an owner-occupied property is transferred

out for earning rentals or for capital appreciation, the fixed asset or intangible asset is reclassified as

investment properties at its carrying amount at the date of the transfer.

The investment property’s estimated useful life, net residual value and depreciation (amortization)

method applied are reviewed and adjusted as appropriate at each year-end.

An investment property is derecognised on disposal or when the investment property is permanently

withdrawn from use and no future economic benefits are expected from its disposal. The net amount

of proceeds from sale, transfer, retirement or damage of an investment property after its carrying

amount and related taxes and expenses are recognised in profit or loss for the current period.

The carrying amount of an investment property is reduced to the recoverable amount if the

recoverable amount is below the carrying amount (Note V (18)).

V Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (continued)

14 Fixed assets

(a) Recognition and initial measurement of fixed assets

Fixed assets comprise buildings, machinery and equipment, motor vehicles and office equipment,

etc.

Fixed assets are recognized when it is probable that the related economic benefits will flow to the

Company and its subsidiaries and the costs can be reliably measured. Fixed assets purchased or

constructed by the Company and its subsidiaries are initially measured at cost at the acquisition

date.

Subsequent expenditures incurred for fixed assets are included in the cost of the fixed assets when it

is probable that the associated economic benefits will flow to the Company and its subsidiaries and

the related costs can be reliably measured. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised.

All the other subsequent expenditures are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they are

94

2015 Annual Report of Wuxi Little Swan Company Limited

incurred.

(b) Depreciation

Fixed assets are depreciated using the straight-line method to allocate the cost of the assets to their

estimated residual values over their estimated useful lives. For the fixed assets being provided for

impairment loss, the related depreciation charge is prospectively determined based upon the

adjusted carrying amounts over their remaining useful lives.

The estimated useful lives, estimated residual values expressed as a percentage of cost and annual

depreciation rates are as follows:

Method of Estimated Annual

depreciation Estimated residual value Depreciation rate

Straight-line

Buildings method 20-35 years 5.00% 2.71%-4.75%

Machinery and Straight-line

equipment method 10-15 years 5.00% 6.33%-9.50%

Motor vehicles Straight-line method 5 years 5.00% 19%

Office Straight-line

equipment method 3-5 years 5.00% 19%-31.67%

(c) The carrying amount of fixed assets is reduced to the recoverable amount when the recoverable

amount is less than the carrying amount (Note V(18)).

V Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (continued)

14 Fixed assets (continued)

(d) Disposal

A fixed asset is derecognized on disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its

use or disposal. The amount of proceeds on sale, transfer, retirement or damage of a fixed asset net

of its carrying amount and related taxes and expenses is recognized in profit or loss.

15 Construction in progress

Construction in progress is measured at actual cost. Actual cost comprises construction costs,

installation costs, borrowing costs that are eligible for capitalization and other costs necessary to

bring the fixed assets ready for their intended use. Construction in progress is transferred to fixed

assets when the assets are ready for their intended use, and depreciation begins from the following

month. The carrying amount of construction in progress is reduced to the recoverable amount when

the recoverable amount is less than the carrying amount (Note V (18)).

16 Borrowing costs

95

2015 Annual Report of Wuxi Little Swan Company Limited

The borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition and construction of a fixed asset

that needs a substantially long period of time for its intended use commence to be capitalized and

recorded as part of the cost of the asset when expenditures for the asset and borrowing costs have

been incurred, and the activities relating to the acquisition and construction that are necessary to

prepare the asset for its intended use have commenced. The capitalization of borrowing costs ceases

when the asset under acquisition or construction becomes ready for its intended use, the borrowing

costs incurred thereafter are recognized in profit or loss. Capitalization of borrowing costs is

suspended when the acquisition or construction of a fixed asset is interrupted abnormally and the

interruption lasts for more than 3 months, until the acquisition or construction is resumed.

For the specific borrowings obtained for the acquisition or construction of a fixed asset qualifying

for capitalization, the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation is determined by

deducting any interest income earned from depositing the unused specific borrowings in the banks

or any investment income arising on the temporary investment of those borrowings during the

capitalization period.

For the general borrowings obtained for the acquisition or construction of a fixed asset qualifying

for capitalization, the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalization is determined by

applying the weighted average effective interest rate of general borrowings, to the weighted average

of the excess amount of cumulative expenditures on the asset over the amount of specific

borrowings. The effective interest rate is the rate at which the estimated future cash flows during the

period of expected duration of the borrowings or applicable shorter period are discounted to the

initial amount of the borrowings.

V Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (continued)

17 Intangible assets

Intangible assets include land use rights, non-patented technology and computer soft wares, which

initially recognized at cost.

(a) Land use rights

A land use right granted by government with a infinite useful life would not be amortised. Other

land use rights are amortised on the straight-line basis over 50 years. If the acquisition costs of land

use rights and the buildings located thereon cannot be reliably allocated between the land use rights

and the buildings, all of the acquisition costs are recognised as fixed assets.

(b) Non-patented technology

Non-patented technology are amortised on the straight-line basis over the shorter of their

useful life/benefit period stipulated in the agreement or contract and the legal age.

(c) Computer softwares

Computer softwares purchased by the Company and its subsidiaries are initially measured at cost,

which are amortised on the straight-line over their approved useful period of 3-5 years.

96

2015 Annual Report of Wuxi Little Swan Company Limited

(d) Periodical review of useful life and amortisation method

For an intangible asset with a finite useful life, review of its useful life and amortisation method is

performed at each year-end, with adjustment made as appropriate.

(e) Research and development

The expenditure on an internal research and development project is classified into expenditure on

the research phase and expenditure on the development phase based on its nature and whether there

is material uncertainty that the research and development activities can form an intangible asset at

end of the project.

Expenditure for investigation, evaluation and selection of production process researches is

recognised in profit or loss in the period in which it is incurred. Expenditure on the designation,

assessment of the final utilization of the production process before mass production, is capitalised

only if all of the following conditions are satisfied:

development of the production process has been fully demonstrated by the technical team;

management has approved the budget of production development;

existed market research analysis suggests that the products produced by the new production

technology are able to be promoted;

adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and subsequent

mass production and the ability to use or sell the intangible asset; and

the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development phase can be reliably

measured.

V Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (continued)

17 Intangible assets (continued)

(e) Research and development (continued)

Other development expenditures that do not meet the conditions above are recognised in profit or

loss in the period in which they are incurred. Development costs previously recognised as expenses

are not recognised as an asset in a subsequent period. Capitalised expenditure on the development

phase is presented as development costs in the balance sheet and transferred to intangible assets at

the date that the asset is ready for its intended use.

(f) Impairment of intangible assets

The carrying amount of intangible assets is reduced to the recoverable amount when the recoverable

amount is less than the carrying amount (Note V (18)).

18 Impairment of long-term assets

97

2015 Annual Report of Wuxi Little Swan Company Limited

Fixed assets, construction in progress, intangible assets with finite useful lives, investment

properties measured using the cost model and long-term equity investments in subsidiaries and

associates are tested for impairment if there is any indication that an asset may be impaired at the

balance sheet date. Intangible assets which are not yet ready to use should be tested at least annually

for impairment, irrespective of whether there is any indication that it may be impaired. If the result

of the impairment test indicates that the recoverable amount of the asset is less than its carrying

amount, a provision for impairment and an impairment loss are recognised for the amount by which

the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of

an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and the present value of the future cash flows expected to be

derived from the asset. Provision for asset impairment is determined and recognised on the

individual asset basis. If it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset,

the recoverable amount of a group of assets to which the asset belongs is determined. A group of

assets is the smallest identifiable group of assets that is able to generate independent cash inflows.

Intangible assets with infinite useful lives and capitalized development expenditures are tested at

least annually for impairment, irrespective of whether there is any indication that it may be

impaired.

Once the above asset impairment loss is recognised, it will not be reversed for the value recovered in

the subsequent periods.

19 Long-term prepaid expenses

Long-term prepaid expenses include the expenditure for improvements to fixed assets under

operating leases, and other expenditures that have been made but should be recgonised as expenses

over more than one year in the current and subsequent periods. Long-term prepaid expenses are

amortised on the straight-line basis over the expected beneficial period and are presented at actual

expenditure net of accumulated amortization.

V Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (continued)

20 Employee benefits

(a) Short-term employee benefits

Short-term employee benefits mainly include wages or salaries, bonus, allowances and subsidies,

staff welfare, medical insurance, work injury insurance, maternity insurance, housing funds, and

union running costs and employee education costs. The employee benefits are recognised in the

accounting period in which the service has been rendered by the employees, and as costs of assets or

expenses to whichever the employee service is attributable.

(b) Pension obligations

The Company and its subsidiaries operate various post-employment schemes, including both

defined benefit plans and defined contribution plans. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan

98

2015 Annual Report of Wuxi Little Swan Company Limited

under which the Company and its subsidiaries pay fixed contributions into a separate entity then the

Company and its subsidiaries have no legal or constructive obligations to pay further contributions.

In the reporting period, The Company and its subsidiaries’s pension obligations mainly include the

basic endowment insurance and unemployment insurance; both belong to the defined contribution

plan.

Pension insurance

Employees of the Company and its subsidiaries participate in the social pension insurance organized

by the local labour and social security departments. The Company and its subsidiaries pay pension

insurance premium to the pension insurance agency with the local provision of social pension

insurance base pay and proportional monthly. When the employee is retired, the local labour and

social security departments have the responsibility to pay the basic pension insurance to retired

employees

(c) Termination benefits

Termination benefits are payable when employment is terminated by the Company and its

subsidiaries before the normal retirement date, or whenever an employee accepts voluntary

redundancy in exchange for these benefits. the Company and its subsidiaries recognise termination

benefits at the earlier of the following dates, when the Company and its subsidiaries can no longer

withdraw the offer of those benefits and when the entity recognises costs related to restructuring.

Retirement benefits

The Company and its subsidiaries provide termination benefits to employees who accept voluntary

redundancy in exchange for these benefits. Termination benefits are the payments of wages or

salaries and social insurance for the employees who accept termination plan before the normal retire

age. The termination benefits plan covers the period from the starting date of termination benefit

plan to the normal retire age. When the Company and its subsidiaries terminate the employment

relationship with employees before the end of the employment contract, a provision for termination

benefits for the compensation arising from termination of the employment relationship with

employees to the retire age is recognised with a corresponding change to profit or loss. The

difference from change of actuarial assumptions and adjustment on benefit is recognised in the

current profits and losses.

Retirement benefits falling due within a year are reclassified as a current liability.

V Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (continued)

99

2015 Annual Report of Wuxi Little Swan Company Limited

21 Dividend distribution

Cash dividends distribution is recognised as a liability in the period in which it is approved by the

annual shareholders’ meeting.

22 Provisions

Provisions for product warranties, onerous contracts etc. are recognised when the Company and its

subsidiaries has a present obligation, it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be

required to settle the obligation, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.

A provision is initially measured at the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the related

present obligation. Factors surrounding a contingency, such as the risks, uncertainties and the time

value of money, are taken into account as a whole in reaching the best estimate of a provision.

Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the best estimate is determined by

discounting the related future cash outflows. The increase in the discounted amount of the provision

arising from passage of time is recognised as interest expense.

The carrying amount of provisions is reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect the

current best estimate.

23 Share-based payments

24 Revenue recognition

The amount of revenue is determined in accordance with the fair value of the consideration received

or receivable for the sale of goods and services in the ordinary course of the Company and its

subsidiaries’s activities. Revenue is shown net of discounts and returns.

Revenue is recognized when the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the

Company and its subsidiaries, the relevant revenue can be reliably measured and specific revenue

recognition criteria have been met for each of the Company and its subsidiaries’ activities as

described below:

V Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (continued)

24 Revenue recognition (continued)

(a) Sales of goods

100

2015 Annual Report of Wuxi Little Swan Company Limited

The Company and its subsidiaries are engaged in manufacturing and sales of washing

machines. Revenue from sales of goods is recognized when the goods and confirmed documents are

delivered, significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods are transferred to the customers,

the Company and its subsidiaries retain neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree

usually associated with the ownership nor effective control over the goods sold, relevant

consideration or the documents which grant the right to receive the relevant consideration has been

received, and related costs can be measured reliably.

During the reporting period,the Company and its subsidiaries sale goods mainly through dealers,

large-scale chain retailers, e-business platform and export to foreign countries. Revenue is

recognized when products accepted by dealers, chain retailerss and third-party e-business sellers.

After the acceptance, the risks of damage of goods or price fluctuations and the right to sale goods

belongs to dealers, chain retailers and e-business sellers. As for self-operation e-business website,

revenue is recognized when products accepted by ultimate customers. As for export sales, revenue is

recognized when goods are delivered to customs, ships go across the appointed ports and the

Company and its subsidiaries get the bills of landing.

(b) Transfer of asset use rights

Interest income is determined by using the effective interest method, based on the length of time for

which the cash of the Company and its subsidiaries is used by others.

Income from an operating lease is recognised on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.

25 Government grants

Government grants are the monetary asset that the Company and its subsidiaries received from the

government for free, including tax refund, financial subsidies, etc.

A government grant is recognized when the conditions attached to it can be complied with and the

government grant can be received. For a government grant in the form of transfer of monetary

assets, the grant is measured at the amount received or receivable. For a government grant in the

form of transfer of non-monetary assets, the grant is measured at nominal value.

(a) Government grants related to assets

The government grants related to assets mean the government assets that are obtained by enterprises

used for purchase or construction, or forming the long-term assets by other ways. The government

grants related to income refer to all the government grants except those pertinent to assets.

A government grant related to an asset is recognized as deferred income, and evenly amortized to

profit or loss over the useful life of the related asset.

V Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (continued)

25 Government grants (continued)

(b) Government grants related to income

For government grants related to income, where the grant is a compensation for related expenses or

101

2015 Annual Report of Wuxi Little Swan Company Limited

losses to be incurred by the Company and its subsidiaries in the subsequent periods, the grant is

recognized as deferred income, and included in profit or loss over the periods in which the related

costs are recognized; where the grant is a compensation for related expenses or losses already

incurred by the Company and its subsidiaries, the grant is recognized immediately in profit or loss

for the current period.

26 Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are calculated and recognised based on the differences

arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts (temporary

differences). Deferred tax asset is recognised for the deductible losses that can be carried forward to

subsequent years for deduction of the taxable profit in accordance with the tax laws. No deferred tax

asset or deferred tax liability is recognised for the temporary differences resulting from the initial

recognition of assets or liabilities due to a transaction other than a business combination, which

affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit (or deductible loss). At the balance sheet date,

deferred tax assets and deferred 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.

Deferred tax assets are only recognised for deductible temporary differences, deductible losses and

tax credits to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available in the future against

which the deductible temporary differences, deductible losses and tax credits can be utilised.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for temporary differences arising from investments in

subsidiaries and associates, unless 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. When it is probable that the temporary differences arising from investments in

subsidiaries and associates will be reversed in the foreseeable future and that the taxable profit will be

available in the future against which the temporary differences can be utilized, the corresponding

deferred tax assets are recognized.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when:

The deferred taxes are relate to the same tax payer within the Company and its subsidiaries

and the same taxation authority, and;

That tax payer has a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax

liabilities

27 Operating lease

Lease payments under an operating lease are recognized on a straight-line basis over the period of the

lease, and are either capitalized as part of the cost of related assets, or charged as an expense for the

current period.

28 Segment information

The Company and its subsidiaries identify operating segments based on the internal organisation

structure, management requirements and the internal reporting system, and discloses segment

102

2015 Annual Report of Wuxi Little Swan Company Limited

information of reportable segments determined on the basis of operating segments.

V Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (continued)

28 Segment information (continued)

An operating segment is a component of the Company and its subsidiaries that satisfy all of the

following conditions:

(a) the component is able to earn revenues and incur expenses from its ordinary activities.

(b) whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the Company and its subsidiaries’

management to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and to assess its

performance.

(c) for which the information on financial position, operating results and cash flows is available to

the Company and its subsidiaries. If two or more operating segments have similar economic

characteristics, and satisfy certain conditions, they are aggregated into a single operating segment.

29 Critical accounting policies and estimates

The Company and its subsidiaries continually evaluate the critical accounting estimates and key

judgments applied based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future

events that are believed to be reasonable.

(a) Critical accounting estimates and key assumptions

The critical accounting estimates and key assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material

adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are outlined

below:

(i) Accounting estimates on impairment of accounts receivable

In accordance with the accounting policy of the Company and its subsidiaries (Note V (10)), the

Company’s management tests annually whether receivables have suffered any impairment. Impairment

of receivables has been assessed by taking into account the customers’ credit history and financial

position together with the current market conditions. Even if the Company and its subsidiaries’

management has made bad debt provision for the expected loss at its best estimate, there is a

possibility that changes in customers’ financial position or market conditions will alter the result.

(ii) Accounting estimates on impairment of inventories

In accordance with the accounting policy of the Company and its subsidiaries (Note V (11) (c)), the

management of the Company and its subsidiaries estimate the net realizable value of the inventory. Net

realisable value is determined based on the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business,

less the estimated costs to completion and estimated costs necessary to make the sale and related taxes.

Even if the management of the Company and its subsidiaries have made provision for the expected

impairment of inventories at its best estimate, there is a possibility that changes in market conditions

will alter the result.

103

2015 Annual Report of Wuxi Little Swan Company Limited

(iii) Estimated residual value and useful lives of fixed assets, investment properties and intangible assets

The Company and its subsidiaries’ management estimates the useful lives and residual value of fixed

assets, investment properties and intangible assets. Fixed assets comprise buildings, machinery and

equipment, motor vehicles, office and electronic equipment, ect. Investment properties comprise

buildings and land use rights, ect. Intangible assets include land use rights, non-patent technology

and computer softwares, ect. The three kinds of assets mentioned above have been assessed by taking

into account the actual residul value and useful lives of assets with similar nature and function based

on historical experience. However, there is a possibility that changes in technical renovation or other

reason will alter the result. The management of the Company and its subsidiaries will increase

depreciation and amortizations when the residual value and estimated useful lives are less than the

previous estimate.

V Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (continued)

29 Critical accounting policies and estimates (continued)

(iv) Accounting estimates on impairment of fixed assets, intangible assets and other long-term assets

Fixed asssets, intangible assets and other long-term assets are reviewed for impairment if there is

any incident or environmental change that the value of the asset may be impossible to recover. The

recoverable amount is determined by the useful value or market value calculated which judgement

and estimate should be applied to.

The management of the Company and its subsidiaries shall determine the asset impairment,

especially when judging any of the incidents below: (i) if there is any indication that value of related

assets may be impossible to recover; (ii) whether the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell

and the present value of the future cash flows expected to be derive form the asset based on the

continuous operation is higher than its carrying amount; (iii) whether the main assumptions of cash

flows forecasting are applied appropriately, including whether the cash flows forcasting is

discounted in a proper rate. Even if the management of the Company and its subsidiaries have chosen

proper assumptions for impairment assessment (including assumptions for discount rate and growth

rate for cash flow forecast), there is a possibility that changes in the assumptions will have significant

effect on the result.

(v) Sales rebates

The Company and its subsidiaries apply the rebating policies with buyers. The amount of the rebates

is estimated periodically taking into account related sales contracts, examination of particular

transactions, market environment, inventory stock, historical experiences and the agreed indicator of

particular customers. As it determined by the judgement and estimation of management, there is a

possibility that changes in the estimation will have significant effect on the provision of sales rebates

of the period when the changes occurred.

(vi) Income taxes

104

2015 Annual Report of Wuxi Little Swan Company Limited

The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to income taxes in different jurisdictions. There are

many transactions and events for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain during the

ordinary course of business. Significant judgment is required from the management in determining

the provision for income taxes in each of these jurisdictions. The Company and its subsidiaries

recognise income taxes in each jurisdiction based on estimates. Where the final tax outcome of these

matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the

income tax and deferred tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made.

VI Taxation

XII Fair value disclosure

1 Closing balance of assets and liabilities measured at fair value

Based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety, the fair

value hierarchy has the following levels:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or

liability, either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices).

Level 3: Inputs for the assets or liabilities that are not based on observable market data (that is,

unobservable inputs).

XII Fair value disclosure (continued)

1 Closing balance of assets and liabilities measured at fair value (continued)

The fair value of a financial instrument that is traded in an active market is determined at the quoted

price in the active market. The fair value of a financial instrument for which the market is not active is

determined by using a valuation technique. Valuation techniques include cash flow discount model and

market comparable company model. The input of valuation techniques mainly include risk free rate,

benchmark interest rate, exchange rate, credit spreads, liquidity premium, EBITDA multiplier and

lack of liquidity discount,etc.

As at 31 December 2015, the financial assets measured at fair value by the above three levels are

analysed below:

2 Valuation technique and qualitative and quantitative information of significant parameter used

by instruments measured at fair value by Level 3 on a continuous and non-continuous basis

As at 31 December 2015, the Company and its subsidiaries’ financial assets measured at fair value by

Level 3 are financial product investments with floating income and unprotected principles. The fair

value is determined by the Company and its subsidiaries using valuation techniques.

3 Reasons of conversion among levels and policies of determining conversion date of instruments

measured at fair value on a continuous basis

The Company and its subsidiaries consider the date of events leading the conversion between

different levels as the conversion recognizing date. In 2015, there was no conversion between Level 1

and Level 2.

4 The movement of financial assets measured at fair value by Level 3

The movement of financial assets measured at fair value by Level 3 is analysed below:

2015 Annual Report of Wuxi Little Swan Company Limited

5 Financial instruments not measured at fair value

Available-for-sale financial assets measured in cost model are investments on shares of unlisted

companies, which have no quoted price in the active market and the range of reasonable estimation

of their fair value is relatively wide and probabilities used to determine the estimation cannot be

ascertained reasonably. Therefore, the fair values cannot be measured reliably.

Financial assets and liabilities measured at amortized cost mainly represent receivables and

payables.

The book value of financial assets and liabilities not measured at fair value are close to their fair

value.

Company and its subsidiaries’ ability to continue operating, in order to provide returns for
