ASUSTEK COMPUTER INC.
Notes to Non-Consolidated Financial Statements
(In thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)
(3) Credit risk
The Company trades only with established and creditworthy third parties. It is the
Company's policy that all customers who wish to trade on credit terms are subject to
credit verification procedures. In addition, receivable balances are monitored on an
ongoing basis, which consequently minimizes the Company's exposure to bad debts.
With respect to credit risk arising from the other financial assets of the Company, which
comprise of cash and cash equivalents, available-for-sale financial assets and certain
derivative instruments, the maximum exposure to credit risk arising from the default of
counter-parties is limited to the carrying amount of these instruments.
Although the Company trades only with established third parties, it will nevertheless
request collateral to be provided by third parties with less favorable financial positions.
(4) Liquidity risk
The Company's objective is to maintain a balance of funding continuity and flexibility
through the use of financial instruments such as cash and cash equivalents, bank loans
and bonds.
