separately listed on the State plan:

Recently, Letter Concerning Issues of Solving Value-added Tax Refund of Enterprises with Foreign Investment Purchasing Domestic Equipments
issued by the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation (WaiJingMao ZiZongHan [2001] No.983 ) was received. It reflects
that during the course of handling tax refund procedures, some enterprises with foreign investment can not register for handling

It is known that according to the relevant laws and regulations, local competent departments in charge of foreign trade and economy
may examine and approve investment projects of enterprises with foreign investment except the circumstance that the Ministry of Foreign
Trade and Economic Cooperation examines and approves directly. Whereas the circumstances stated above, in order to facilitate handling
tax refund of purchasing equipments made in China of enterprises with foreign investment, the 5th Paragraph of Article 6 of Chapter
3 of the Circular of the State Administration of Taxation Concerning Printing and Distributing Measures for Trial Implementation
of Management of Tax Refund of Enterprises with Foreign Investment Purchasing Domestic Equipments (GuoShuiFa [1997] No.171), “Copy

CIRCULAR OF THE STATE ADMINISTRATION OF TAXATION ON SORTING OUT AND CHECKING THE PREFERENTIAL POLICIES ON ENTERPRISE INCOME TAX AND THE IMPLEMENTATION THEREOF

The State Administration of Taxation

Circular of the State Administration of Taxation on Sorting out and Checking the Preferential Policies on Enterprise Income Tax and
the Implementation Thereof

GuoShuiFa [2002] No.127

September 30, 2002

In order to implement the requirements of the National Conference for Revenue Increase and Expenditure Reduction, carry out the uniform
deployment of the State Administration of Taxation and strengthen the administration on the collection of enterprise income tax,
we have decided to sort out and check the preferential policies on enterprise income tax and the implementation thereof. We hereby
give our notice as follows regarding the relevant work requirements:

The Significance to Fully Recognize the Sorting out and Checking of the Preferential Policies on Enterprise Income Tax and the Implementation
Thereof

The preferential policies on enterprise income tax are the incentive taxation measures made by the state according to the needs in
the continuing, healthy and stable development of national economy as well as the overall target of macro-economic control. To earnestly
implement the preferential policies on enterprise income tax, regulate and carry out the procedures for each link of the administration
of the preferential policies on enterprise income tax are the inevitable requirements for doing well in the administration of enterprise
income tax, guaranteeing the state macro-control policy to play its role, and promoting the continuing, healthy and stable development
of the national economy under new conditions. At present, the overall situation for the tax authorities at all levels to implement
the preferential policies on enterprise income tax is good. Basically, as required by the principle of administering tax by law,
they can earnestly ensure the uniform implementation of the preferential policies on enterprise income tax, resist the act of unauthorizedly
making preferential policies in violation of the uniform provisions, and continuously regulate the implementation procedures. However,
there are also some problems in the implementation of the policies. For example, unauthorized preferential policies on enterprise
income tax are make in some regions by exceeding of power, and in some regions the ascertainment of the qualification for a taxpayer
to enjoy the preferential policies are not strictly controlled, the approval procedures are not normative, and the follow-up administration
is not well done, and so on. Such problems have objectively led to the inconformity of the preferential policies on enterprise income
tax with the standard of implementation, and impacted the active functions of the state macro-control policy.

In order to follow the principle of administering tax by law, rectify and regulate the taxation order, ensure the reform of the system
for sharing revenue from income tax, and adapt to the needs in China’s accession to the WTO, the tax authorities at all levels must
adhere to the principle of administering tax by law, maintain the uniformity and the taxation policies and the regularity of implementation
of the policies. Meanwhile, they shall earnestly implement the requirements of the National Conference for Revenue Increase and Expenditure
Reduction, further strengthen their administration on tax collection, and guarantee the completion of the taxation task of the whole
year. To meet the above requirements, it is indeed necessary to carry out the work of sorting out and checking the preferential policies
on enterprise income tax, verify the taxpayers’ qualifications to enjoy the preferential policies, stop the income tax reduction
or exemption in excess of power, and regulate the procedures to implement the preferential policies. It is also an urgent task, therefore
the tax authorities at all levels shall undertake this task from the point of view of politics and overall situation, and earnestly
make achievements.

and Financial Organizations like Banks

To regulate the accounting process of financial businesses between enterprises and financial organizations like banks, provisions
on accounting process of associated businesses are enacted herein:

The accounting principles of financing of receivable creditor’s rights

Enterprises sell to financial organizations like banks receivable creditor’s rights generating from sale contracts for providing services.
The principle that quality overweighs form should be taken into account for accounting, the economic nature of business being fully
considered. The selling of receivable creditor’s rights is valid and related profit and loss must be confirmed when there is clear-cut
evidence seeing associated dealing actually meets the requirements of confirming sale. For instance, when the risk and payment related
to receivable creditor’s rights in effect has been transferred. Otherwise, it should be regarded as the loan with a pledge of receivable
creditor’s rights and correspondent accounting treatment should be complied with.

II.

Accounting treatments of the loan with a pledge of receivable creditor’s rights

If enterprises give banks receivable creditor’s rights generating from sale contracts for providing services as a pledge for the loan,
the risk and payment associated with receivable creditor’s rights are not transferred. Under this circumstance, it is still the enterprise
that owns receivable creditor’s rights and it is responsible for gathering payment from customers and bears the possible risks of
receivable creditor’s rights. Meanwhile, the enterprise should regularly pay the loan as well as its interest back to the financial
organizations like banks.

When the loan is obtained with a pledge of receivable creditor’s rights, the enterprise should debit the received payment against
the item of bank account, the actually paying commission charge against the item of financial expense and credit the principles and
interest to items of short-term loan etc.

When receiving the payment from customers, the enterprise should debit the payment against the items such as cash and bank account
and credit to the item of receivable account.

As for the interest of loan generating in the enterprise and the accounting treatments of the principles and interest of the loan
paid by the enterprise to financial organizations like banks, the associated regulations of loan in Enterprise Accounting System
should be complied with.

Since the above-mentioned risk and payment related to receivable creditor’s rights as a pledge do not change substantially, the enterprise
should consider the situation of the debtor and reasonably withdraw bad debt reserves of receivable creditor’s rights as the pledge
in accordance with the provisions in Enterprise Accounting System. The selling withdrawal, selling discount and bad debt associated
with receivable creditor’s rights as the pledge should be dealt with in accordance with the provisions in Enterprise Accounting System.

The enterprise should have record books for future reference. All the issues such as account value, pledge term and payment of receivable
creditor’s rights as the pledge should be particularly recorded.

III.

Accounting treatment related to the selling of receivable creditor’s rights.

of the creditor’s receivables cannot be fulfilled at term, the risk in the selling of receivable creditor’s rights is totally undertaken
by financial organizations like banks. Under that circumstance, the accounting treatment should comply with the following provisions.

An enterprise should, in accordance with the contract signed between the enterprise and a financial organization like bank, debit
the received amount against the item of bank account, the predicted sum of selling withdrawal and selling discount (including cash
discount, the same below) presented in the contract against the item of other account receivables, the withdrawn bad debt reserve
of receivable creditor’s rights against the item of bad debt reserve, the amount of related due commission charge against the item
of financial expense, and credit the account value of selling receivable creditor’s rights to the item of account receivables while
debit the balance against the item of extra expense—the financing loss of receivable creditor’s rights or credit the item of extra
income—the financial proceeds of receivable creditor’s rights.

When the practically-generating selling withdrawal and selling discount associated with the selling of receivable creditor’s rights
equals to the amount that have been booked in the item of other receivables, the enterprise should debit the practical amounts of
selling withdrawal and selling discount against the items such as major business income (cash discount should be debit against the
item of financial expense, the same below), value-added tax which can be reduces or charged against the item of paying tax—paying
value-added tax (sale tax ) and credit the predicted selling withdrawal and selling discount associated with the sold creditor’s
rights of receivables that have been booked in the item of other account receivables to the item of other receivables. If there is
balance between the amounts of selling withdrawal and selling discount that practically generated and are related to receivable creditor’s
rights as well as the amounts booked in the item of other account receivables, the accounting treatments should be adopted in accordance
with the above provisions. What’s more, the amounts of selling withdrawal and selling discount paid to the financial organizations
like banks as the counterbalance should be booked in the items such as other account receivables or bank account and the amounts
of selling withdrawal and selling discount obtained from the financial organizations like banks should be booked in the items like
other account receivables or bank account.

The provisions in Enterprise Accounting System and other related rules of accounting should be complied with when the above selling
withdrawal and selling discount of the enterprise belong to the future item in balance sheet.

(II)

Accounting treatments related to the selling of receivable creditor’s rights attached right of recourse

If right of recourse is validly mentioned in the selling process of receivable creditor’s rights, that is, financial organizations
have the right to seek for compensation from the enterprise that sold receivable creditor’s rights or the enterprise is obliged to
buy back from the financial organizations like banks a portion of receivable creditor’s rights at an agreed price in accordance with
the agreement when the withdrawal of the creditor’s receivables cannot be fulfilled at term, the risk in the selling of receivable
creditor’s rights is totally undertaken by the enterprise that sold receivable creditor’s rights. Under that circumstance, the accounting
treatment about the loan obtained with the pledge of receivable creditor’s rights in the provision should be complied with.

IV.

Accounting treatments on discount of receivable creditor’s rights

According to the agreement signed between an enterprise and a financial organization like a bank, if the discount of receivable creditor’s
rights is actually in effect, its accounting treatment should comply with the relevant provisions on the discount of notes receivable
in Enterprise Accounting System.

The exposure of the selling and financing businesses based on receivable creditor’s rights
