If the following factors are found, including continual downslide of market price, technical obsolescence, damage or long-term idling, then the recoverable amount is evaluated for the fixed assets so as to check whether the fixed asset is devaluated or not. If the recoverable amount is lower than the book value of the fixed assets, then the depreciation provision is drawn as the difference between the recoverable amount and the book value. Once the fixed assets depreciation provision is confirmed, it shall not be reverted in the subsequent accounting period. |
7. | Accounting treatment method for borrowing costs | |
For the borrowing cost occurred, if it complies to the capitalization conditions of fixed assets construction or procurement, it can be added into the corresponding assets costs; the other borrowing costs shall be determined as expenses and listed in the income statement according to the amount occurred.

The basic format of entity cash flow model is:
Entity value=entity cash flow t/ (1+ weighted average cost of capital)
t
Shareholders equity value=entity value— liability value
Liability value = payable liability cash flow/ (1+equal risk liability cost) t
The entity cash flow= after-tax profit before interest+ depreciation and

amortization — operation capital increment- capital expenditure
4. | Establishment of the Forecast Period |
So as to be able to reflect cash flow of the power station operation in a long time, we confirmed
the predicted period is five years (including the fourth-quarter of the year 2007). It is from the
year 2007 (the first year) to the year 2011.
5. | Establishment of Benefit Period |
The operation period of the Yingchuan Hydropower Development Company is thirty years as stated in
the company regulations, counting from the issuance of the operation license. The operation period
stated in the business license of the enterprise as a legal person is from Aug. 26, 1998 to Aug.
25, 2028. On the base of the economic development prospect of generating power by water conservancy
and supposing the enterprise to be operate continentally, the appraisal benefit period is
permanent, namely from Sep. 30, 2007 to the permanency.
6. | Establishment of the Discounting Rate |
According to the principle of unifying the earning capacity and the discounting rate, the earning
capacity is entity cash flow, so the discounting rate” r” will choose the weighted average cost of
capital (WACC), i.e., the return on investment capital, also called investment capital cost, a
comprehensive return rate decided by the structure and return rate of the shareholders’ equity
capitals and interest-payment debenture capitals.
The computing formula is:
WACC = Ke*We+Kd*(1-T)*Wd
Ke: Shareholders’ equity capital cost;
Kd: debenture capital cost;
We: the ratio of shareholders’ equity capital in the capital structure;
Wd: the ratio of debenture capital in the capital structure;
T: valid income tax rate of the company;
Ke: Shareholders’ equity capital cost;
Kd: debenture capital cost;
We: the ratio of shareholders’ equity capital in the capital structure;
Wd: the ratio of debenture capital in the capital structure;
T: valid income tax rate of the company;

the individual
risk earning of Yingchuan Hydropower Development Company, the computing formula is:
Ke= Rf+β×Rpm+A
Rf: risk-free return rate;
RPm: market risk premium;
A: individual risk adjustment.
1 | Risk-free Return Rate Rf |
The annual interest of the registered national debt (seven-year term) face value in 2007 (the
fourteenth term) is 3.9% and if converted into the compound interest, the interest is 3.51%, so
the risk-free return rate is 3.51%.
• | Enterprise risk coefficient β | |
It is confirmed according to inquiry the enterprise analogous Xx Xxxx A shares stock listed company Beta value, the specific confirmation process as follows: | ||
Firstly, on the base of Beta without the finance lever from the listed companies of the same kind, the average Beta without the finance lever can be worked out. According to the interest-bearing debt status as well as the future financing plan of the enterprise, the Beta of the enterprise can be worked out. | ||
Through calculation, the Beta without finance level in the listed companies of the same kind is 0.2939. | ||
According to the operation capacity, financing capacity and the future capital structure of the enterprise, the debt/equity ratio (D/E) from October 2007 to 2011 can be determined. Through the formula βL=(1+(1-T)×D/E)×βU, we can work out the Beta coefficient of the enterprise, see the following table. |

3 | Market Risk Premium Rpm | |
Domestic securities market is an emerging but bundle one. On one hand, the domestic market has a relatively shorter history data and in the first several years of its establishment, the speculation atmosphere was pregnant, so the market fluctuation is large; on the other hand, presently, the control over the exchange flow under the capital account is strict, plus the particularity of the stock equity separation, so the stock equity risk premium deduced directly from the history data has a low reliability, while in the mature market, owing the long history data, the overall stock equity risk premium on the market could be got from analyzing the history data, so the risk premium of international emerging markets commonly could be decided by the risk premium of the mature market. In this appraisal, the market risk premium Rpm is 7.5%. |
• | The risk adjustment coefficient | |
According to the operation data statistics in the previous years, the power station has reached power generation capacity stated in the preliminary design report. Its installed capacity is 40,000kW, and its income is stable under the current power generation capacity. With the local government’s reconstruction on the power transmission circuit, the local power transmission capability is improved, and its power generation capacity is increased in the rainy season, so that its annual power generation capacity can be improved accordingly. Meanwhile, the coordination of Lishui Hydropower Bureau can improve its peak/valley ratio so as to increase income. Considering the influence of the aforesaid factors on revenue, this appraisal believes that it has certain operation risk. At present, the assets/liabilities ratio of the enterprise is not high and its business finance risk is not high. Whereas the above content, the specific risk adjustment “A” is confirmed to be 1%. |
