<strong>SCI</strong> ELECTRIC PUBLIC COMPANY LIMITED AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES<br />

(FORMERLY KNOW AS “<strong>SCI</strong> ELECTRIC MANUFACTURER COMPANY LIMITED”)<br />

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)<br />

FOR THE TEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER <strong>2015</strong><br />

The Company records deferred tax directly to shareholders’ equity if the tax relates to items that are<br />

recorded directly to shareholders’ equity.<br />

3.18 Employee benefits<br />

Short-term employee benefits<br />

Salaries, wages, bonuses and contributions to the social security fund are recognised as expenses when incurred.<br />

Post-employment benefits<br />

Defined contribution plans<br />

The Company and its employees have jointly established a provident fund. The fund is monthly contributed<br />

by employees and by the Company. The fund’s assets are held in a separate trust fund and the Company<br />

contributions are recognised as expenses when incurred.<br />

Defined benefit plans<br />

The Company has obligations in respect of the severance payments it must make to employees upon retirement<br />

under labor law. The Company treats these severance payment obligations as a defined benefit plan.<br />

The obligation under the defined benefit plan is determined by a professionally qualified independent<br />

actuary based on actuarial techniques, using the projected unit credit method. Actuarial gains and losses<br />

arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are charged or credited to equity in<br />

other comprehensive income in the period in which they arise.<br />

Past-service costs are recognised immediately in profit or loss.<br />

The defined benefits liability comprises the present value of the defined benefit obligation less unrecognised<br />

past service cost and unrecognised actuarial gains or losses.<br />

3.19 Provision<br />

Provisions for environmental restoration and legal claims are recognised when: the Group has a present legal or<br />

constructive obligation as a result of past events; it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle<br />

the obligation; and the amount has been reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses.<br />

Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required in settlement<br />

is determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. A provision is recognised even if the likelihood<br />

of an outflow with respect to any one item included in the same class of obligations may be small.<br />

Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the<br />

obligation using a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks<br />

specific to the obligation. The increase in the provision due to passage of time is recognised as interest expense.<br />

3.20 Share Capital<br />

Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net<br />

of tax, from the proceeds.<br />

Where any Group company purchases the Company’s equity share capital (treasury shares), the consideration<br />

paid, including any directly attributable incremental costs (net of income taxes) is deducted from equity<br />

attributable to the company’ s equity holders until the shares are cancelled or reissued. Where such shares are<br />

subsequently reissued, any consideration received, net of any directly attributable incremental transact costs<br />

and the related income tax effects, is included in equity attributable to the company’s equity holders.<br />
