4.3 Differences between Consolidated Financial Statements prepared in accordance with the accounting policies complying with ASBE and IFRS (unaudited)
Other than the differences in the classifications of certain financial statements captions and the accounting for the items described below, there are no material differences between the Group's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with the accounting policies complying with ASBE and IFRS. The reconciliation presented below is included as supplemental information, is not required as part of the basic financial statements and does not include differences related to classification, presentation or disclosures. Such information has not been subject to independent audit or review. The major differences are:
(i) Government Grants
Under ASBE, grants from the government are credited to capital reserve if required by relevant governmental regulations. Under IFRS, government grants relating to the purchase of fixed assets are recognized as deferred income and are transferred to the income statement over the useful life of these assets.
(ii) Safety Production Fund
Under ASBE, safety production fund should be recognized in profit or loss with a corresponding increase in reserve according to PRC regulations. Such reserve is reduced for expenses incurred for safety production purposes or, when safety production related fixed assets are purchased, is reduced by the purchased cost with a corresponding increase in the accumulated depreciation. Such fixed assets are not depreciated thereafter. Under IFRS, payments are expensed as incurred, or capitalised as fixed assets and depreciated according to applicable depreciation methods.
Effects of major differences between the net profit under ASBE and the profit for the period under IFRS are analysed as follows:
