Ministry of Finance

Accounting Standard for Business Enterprises No. 7 – Exchange of Non-monetary Assets

Cai Kuai [2006] No. 3

February 15, 2006

Chapter I General Provisions

Article 1

To standardize the confirmation and measurement of non-monetary assets transaction, and disclosure of relevant information, these
standards are formulated according to the Accounting Standard for Business Enterprises – Basic Standards.

Article 2

The non-monetary assets transaction is an exchange of non-monetary assets between transacting parties, mainly including the transactions
of inventories, fixed assets, intangible assets and long-term equity investments. This kind of exchange involves little or no monetary
assets (namely, monetary assets are referred to as a “boot”).

The term “monetary assets” refers to the monetary capital held by enterprises, the assets to be received in fixed or determined amounts
of currency, including cash, bank deposits, accounts and notes receivable, and bond investments to be held to maturity.

The term “non-monetary assets” refers to the assets other than monetary assets.

Article 3

Where a non-monetary assets transaction satisfies the following conditions at the same time, the fair value of the assets and relevant
payable taxes shall be regarded as the transaction cost, and the difference between the fair value and the carrying value of the
asset surrendered shall be recorded into the profit or loss of the current period:

(1)

The transaction is commercial in nature; and

(2)

The fair value of the assets received or surrendered can be measured reliably.

If the fair values of both the assets received and surrendered can be reliably measured, the fair value of the assets surrendered
shall be the basis for the determination of the cost of the assets received, unless there is any exact evidence showing that the
fair value of the assets received is more reliable.

Chapter II Confirmation and Measurement

Article 4

A non-monetary assets transaction, meeting any of the following conditions, is commercial in nature:

(1)

The future cash flow of the assets received is different from that of the surrendered assets in the aspects of risk, time and amount
notably; and

(2)

The current values of the expected future cash flow of the assets received and surrendered is different, and the difference between
them is more significant than the fair values of the assets received and surrendered.

Article 5

When determining whether or not a non-monetary assets transaction is commercial in nature, an enterprise shall pay attention to whether
or not the transacting parties are connected ones. The existence of the relationship between connected parties is likely to cause
the loss of commercial nature of non-monetary assets transaction.

Article 6

Where any non-monetary assets transaction does not meet the conditions as prescribed in Article 3 of these Standards at the same
time, the carrying value and relevant payable taxes of the assets surrendered shall be the cost of the assets received and no profit
or loss is recognized.

Article 7

Where a boot is caused when an enterprise treats the fair value and relevant payable taxes as the cost of the assets received, the
boot shall be accounted for according to the following circumstances, respectively:

(1)

The enterprise, which pays the boot, shall record the difference between the cost of the assets received and the sum of the carrying
value of the assets surrendered plus the paid boot and relevant payable taxes into the profit or loss of the current period;

(2)

The enterprise, which receives the boot, shall record the difference between the costs of the assets received plus the received boot
and the carrying value of the assets surrendered plus relevant payable taxes into the profit or loss of the current period.

Article 8

Where a boot is caused when an enterprise treat the carrying value of the surrendered assets and the relevant payable taxes as the
cost of the received assets, the boot shall be accounted for according to the following circumstances, respectively:

(1)

The enterprise, which pays the boot, shall treat the result of the carrying value of the assets surrendered plus the paid boot and
relevant payable taxes as the cost of the assets received, and no profit or loss may be recognized; or

(2)

The business enterprise, which receives the boot, shall treat the result of the carrying value of the assets surrendered minus the
received boot and plus relevant payable taxes as the cost of the assets received, and no profit or loss may be recognized.

Article 9

Where several assets received in a non-monetary assets transaction simultaneously, the cost of each received assets shall be determined
according to the following circumstances, respectively:

(1)

If the non-monetary assets transaction is commercial in nature and the fair value of the assets received can be reliably measured,
the cost of each received asset shall be determined by applying the proportion of the fair value of each asset received to the total
fair value of the assets received to allocate the total cost of the assets received; or

(2)

If the non-monetary assets transaction is not commercial in nature, or it is commercial in nature, but the fair value of the assets
received can not be reliably measured, the cost of each received assets shall be determined by applying the proportion of the original
carrying value of each asset received to the total original carrying value of the assets received to allocate the total cost of the
assets received.

Chapter III Disclosure

Article 10

An enterprise shall disclose the following information relating to non-monetary transactions in the annotation:

(1)

Types of the assets received and surrendered;

(2)

Determination method for the assets received;

(3)

Fair values of the assets received and surrendered, as well as the carrying value of the surrendered assets; and

recognized amount of the financial asset or financial liability:

(1)

after deducting the already paid principal;

(2)

Article 14

The actual interest rate method refers to the method by which the post-amortization costs and the interest incomes of different installments

The actual interest rate refers to the interest rate adopted to cash the future cash flow of a financial asset or financial liability
within the predicted term of existence or within a shorter applicable term into the current carrying amount of the financial asset
or financial liability.

When the actual interest rate is determined, the future cash flow shall be predicted on the basis of taking into account all the contractual
provisions concerning the financial asset or financial liability (including the right to repay the loan ahead of schedule, call options,
similar options and etc.), and the future credit losses shall not be taken into account.

The various fee charges, trading expenses, premiums or reduced values, etc., which are paid or collected by the parties to a financial
asset or financial liability contract and which form a part of the actual interest rate, shall be taken into account in the determination
of the actual interest rate. Where the future cash flow or term of existence of a financial asset or financial liability cannot be
predicted reliably, the contractual cash flow of the financial asset or financial liability for the whole term of the contract shall
be taken into account.

Article 15

Under any of the following circumstances, it shows that the enterprise concerned is not able to hold the fixed term financial asset
investment until its maturity:

(3)

Any other circumstance showing that the enterprise concerned is not able to hold the fixed term financial asset investment until its
maturity.

Article 16

Where an enterprise sells its outstanding held-to-maturity investment within the current accounting year or re-classifies it as the
amount of sellable financial asset, and the such amount is considerably large as compared with the amount before such investment
is sold or re-classified, the surplus of such investment shall be re-classified as a sellable financial asset which shall not be
classified as a held-to-maturity investment within the current accounting year and the following two complete accounting years. However,
the following circumstances shall be excluded:

(1)

The date of sale or re-classification is quite near to the maturity date or the repo date of the said investment (e.g., within 3 months
prior to maturity) that any change of the market interest rate will produce little impact upon the fair value of the said investment;

(2)

After almost all the initial principal of the investment has been drawn back by way of repayment at fixed intervals or repayment ahead
of schedule according to the provisions of the contract, the remaining part of the investment will be sold or re-classified;

(3)

The sale or re-classification is caused by any independent event that the enterprise cannot control, is predicted not to occur again
and is hard to be reasonably predicted. Such events mainly include:

i.

The held-to-maturity investment is sold due to the serious worsening of the credit situation of the investee;

ii.

The held-to-maturity investment is sold due to the fact that the relevant tax provisions have canceled the relevant policies on the
pre-tax credit of interest taxes against the held-to-maturity investment or have remarkably reduced the pre-tax creditable amount;

iii.

The held-to-maturity investment is sold due to any important business enterprise combination or serious disposal so as to maintain
the prevailing interest risk position or maintain the prevailing credit risk policies;

iv.

The held-to-maturity investment is sold due to any significant readjustment of laws or administrative regulations on the scope of
permitted investment or the amount of investment of any particular investment product;

v.

The held-to-maturity investment is sold due to the regulatory department￿￿s demands for significantly enhancing the fluidity of assets
or significantly enhancing the risk weight of the held-to-maturity investment in the calculation of capital adequacy ratio;

Article 17

“Loans and accounts receivable” refers to the non-derivative financial assets for which there is no quoted price in the active market
and of which the repo amount is fixed or determinable. An enterprise shall not classify any of the following non-derivative financial
assets as a loan or account receivable:

(1)

the non-derivative financial assets which are to be sold immediately or in the near future;

(2)

the non-derivative financial assets which are designated to be measured at their fair value when they are initially recognized and
of which the variation is recorded into the profits and losses of the current period;

(3)

the non-derivative financial assets which are designated as sellable when they are initially recognized;

(4)

the non-derivative financial assets whose holder finds it hard to take back almost all of the initial investment due to any reason
other than the worsening of the credit of the debtor.

The funds for securities investment and other similar funds as held by an enterprise shall not be classified as a loan or account
receivable.

recognized as well as the financial assets other than those as described below:

(1)

loans and accounts receivables;

(2)

investments held until their maturity; and

(3)

financial assets measured at their fair values and of which the variation is recorded into the profits and losses of the current period.

Article 19

An enterprise shall not, after classifying a financial asset or financial liability as a financial asset or financial liability measured
at its fair value and of which the variation is recorded into the profits and losses of the current period when it is initially recognized,
re-classify it as any other type of financial assets or financial liabilities, nor may it re-classify any other type of financial
assets or financial liabilities as a financial asset or financial liability measured at its fair value and of which the variation
is recorded into the profits and losses of the current period.

Chapter III Embedded Derivative Instruments

Article 20

An embedded derivative instrument shall refer to a derivative instrument which is embedded into a non-derivative instrument (namely,
the principal contract) so that some or all of the cash flow of the mixed instrument changes with the change of particular interest
rates, prices of the financial instrument, prices of commodities, foreign exchange rates, pricing indexes, premium rate indexes,
credit ratings, credit indexes or other similar variables. The embedded derivative instruments and the principal contract jointly
form into a mixed instrument, e.g., the convertible company bonds, etc.

Article 21

An enterprise may designate a mixed instrument as a financial asset or financial liability measured at its fair value and of which
the variation is recorded into the profits and losses of the current period, excepting those under the following circumstances:

(1)

Where the embedded derivative instrument does not significantly change the cash flow of the mixed instrument;

(2)

Where the derivative instruments embedded in similar mixed instruments shall obviously not be separated from the relevant mixed instruments.

Article 22

Where a mixed instrument related to an embedded derivative instrument fails to be designated as a financial asset or financial liability
measured at its fair value and of which the variation is included in the current profits and losses, and it can simultaneously meet
the following conditions, the embedded derivative instrument shall be separated from the mixed instrument and treated as an independent
derivative instrument:

(1)

Where there is no close relationship between it and the principal contract in terms of economic features and risks; and

(2)

Where it shares the same conditions with that of the embedded derivative instrument, and the independent instrument meets the requirements
of the definition of derivative instrument.

Where it is impossible to make an independent measurement when it is obtained or subsequently on the balance sheet date, the mixed
instrument shall be designated entirely as a financial asset or financial liability measured at its fair value and of which the variation
is included in the current profits and losses.

Article 23

Where the principal contract is a financial instrument after the embedded derivative instrument is separated from the mixed instrument
according to the present Standard, it shall be dealt with according to the present Standard; if the principal contract is a non-financial
instrument, it shall be dealt with according to other accounting standards.

Chapter IV Recognition of Financial Instruments

Article 24

When an enterprise becomes a party to a financial instrument, it shall recognize a financial asset or financial liability.

Article 25

Where a financial asset satisfies any of the following requirements, the recognition of it shall be terminated:

(2)

Where the said financial asset has been transferred and meets the conditions for recognizing the termination of financial assets as
provided for in Accounting Standards for Enterprises No. 23 – Transfer of Financial Assets.

The “termination of recognition” shall refer to the writing off the financial asset or financial liability from the account or balance
sheet of the enterprise concerned.

Article 26

Only when the prevailing obligations of a financial liability are relieved in all or in part may the recognition of the financial
liability be terminated in all or partly.

Where an enterprise transfers any of its assets used for repaying its financial liabilities into any institution or to establish a
trust, and the prevailing obligations to repay the liabilities remain to exist, it shall not terminate the recognition of the said
financial liability and the transferred asset.

Article 27

Where an enterprise (debtor) enters into an agreement with a creditor so as to substitute the existing financial liabilities by way
of any new financial liability, and if the contractual stipulations regarding the new financial liability is substantially different
from that regarding the existing financial liability, it shall terminate the recognition of the existing financial liability, and
shall at the same time recognize the new financial liability.

Where an enterprise makes substantial revisions to some or all of the contractual stipulations of the existing financial liability,
it shall terminated the recognition of the existing financial liability or part of it, and at the same time recognize the financial
liability after revising the contractual stipulations as a new financial liability.

Article 28

Where the recognition of a financial liability is totally or partially terminated, the enterprise concerned shall include into the
profits and losses of the current period the gap between the carrying amount which has been terminated from recognition and the considerations
it has paid (including the non-cash assets it has transferred out and the new financial liabilities it has assumed).

CIRCULAR OF THE SUPREME PEOPLE’S COURT ON STRICTLY IMPLEMENTING THE RELATED PROVISIONS FOR THE DISPOSAL OF PROPERTIES INVOLVED IN SMUGGLING CASES

Circular of the Supreme People’s Court on Strictly Implementing the Related Provisions for the Disposal of Properties Involved in
Smuggling Cases

Fa [2006] No 114
April 30, 2006

The higher people’s courts of all provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government, the PLA
military courts, and Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps Branch of the Higher People’s Court,

The General Administration of Customs reported that some local courts failed to judge or only partially judged the illicit money and
properties related to the criminal cases of smuggling. As for the properties that the people’s court failed to make a judgment of
recovery or confiscation were confiscated or recovered by the customs offices by way of administrative punishment, which then results
in bad consequences such as administrative lawsuits. In order to earnestly regulate the law enforcement, we hereby restate the related
provisions as follows.

As for the disposal of illicit money and properties involved in criminal cases, there are definite laws and judicial interpretations.
In Article 92 of the Customs Law, it is provided that “Before the people’s court makes a judgment or the customs office makes a
decision on the punishment, the goods, articles and means of transportation detained by any customs office under law may not be disposed
of” and that “Smuggled goods, articles, illegal incomes, smuggling vehicles, or specially-made equipments, which are confiscated
by the people’s court or the customs office, shall be disposed of uniformly by the customs office under law, and the money from the
disposal and the fines over shall be turned in to the central treasury.” In Article 23 of the Opinions of the Supreme People’s Court,
the Supreme People’s Procuratorate and the General Administration of Customs on Some Issues concerning the Laws Applicable to the
Disposal of Criminal Cases of Smuggling, it is provided that “The people’s court shall, when adjudicating the criminal cases of smuggling,
examine and confirm the money and properties as stated in the lists and certification documents, and make a ruling of recovery and
confiscation according to law; the customs shall dispose of the articles in light of the judgment of the people’s court and the related
provisions in the Customs Law, and turn them in to the central treasury.”

Therefore, it shall strictly follow and implement the aforesaid provisions of laws and judicial interpretations and make judgments
of recovery or confiscation of the illicit money and properties involved in this case when any of the local people’s courts hears
a criminal case of smuggling. For any new situation or new problem occurring during the process of trial of the criminal case of
smuggling, it shall intensify the contact and collaboration with the customs office and other related departments. In case of any
new problem related to the application of laws, it shall report it to the Supreme People’s Court in a timely manner.
