ASUSTEK COMPUTER INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(In thousands of New Taiwan dollars unless otherwise stated)
(4) As required by the government, if the Company’s stockholders’ equity has any debit
balances such as unrealized loss for financial instruments and cumulative translation
adjustments, an equal amount of such debit balances shall be appropriated as a special
reserve before any distribution of earnings. The appropriation shall comply with the
following rules:
(A) For debit balances incurred during the year, the amount of the special reserve shall
not exceed the summation of current income after tax and beginning accumulated
earnings.
(B) For debit balances incurred in prior years, the amount of the special reserve set aside
shall not exceed beginning accumulated earnings minus the appropriated special
reserve as per (1) above.
If there is any reversal of the debit balances subsequently, the amount of the reversal shall
be eligible for earnings distributions.
(5) The Company estimated the employees’ bonuses and directors’ and supervisors’
remuneration for 2008 to be $950,837 thousand and $52,824 thousand, respectively, which
would be recognized as operating expenses in this year. The difference of distribution
between the estimation and the resolution of stockholders’ meeting will be recognized as
profit or loss of the year.
