Approach to Environmental Accounting
Environmental accounting is, we consider, a framework to understand environmental preservation cost and its effect quantitatively, and to implement environmental management in an effective and efficient manner.
Also, it is an effective way to disclose information appropriately for outside person including interested party such as consumers or investors, and to obtain understanding about our company's approach.
In 2000, Ministry of the Environment published "Guideline for Introducing an Environmental Accounting system". Then we think this guideline will become a certain standard and introduced "Environmental accounting" based on it.

- The above is referred to "Environmental Accounting Guidebook (2005 editions)" released in February, 2005 by the Ministry of the Environment.
- As to the investment and expense in which all are not for environmental preservation purposes, difference is calculated when its difference with normal cost is clear, and expense is allocated proportionally at 10% or 50% when the difference is indefinite.
- Depreciation expense is not included in the above expense.
- As to personnel expenses, counting management activity cost, research and development cost and social activity cost, the time taken for environmental activity is multiplied by average unit price of the personnel expenses.
- As to research and development cost, it is difficult to grasp the cost and set us the subject of research of the environmental purpose. Therefore, in this year, 10% of the total amount of the research and development cost is allocated as environmental costs.
- As to the environmental preservation effect, we counted it in the range based on assured reason. "Expected" based on hypothetical calculation is not included.
