Presentation of anticipated return on plan assets pursuant to IAS 19
From the 2006 financial year, the anticipated return on plan assets is presented in the finan-
cial result, for ease of comparison. For the 2005 financial year, the anticipated return on plan
assets (EUR 11 million) recognised in the functional areas were reclassified under the finan-
cial result.
In addition to AUDI AG, the consolidated financial statements include all principal compa-
nies where AUDI AG directly or indirectly has scope for determining the financial and busi-
ness policy in such a way that other group companies benefit from the activities of the
companies in question (subsidiaries). Consolidation begins at that point in time from which
it acquires the opportunity for control; it ends when that opportunity ceases to be available.
Companies where AUDI AG is able to exercise significant direct or indirect influence on
financial and operating policy decisions (“associates”) are accounted for using the equity
method.
The following changes to the consolidated companies occurred in the past financial year:
the fully consolidated companies Audi Synko GmbH and Audi Zentrum Hannover GmbH, as
well as Audi Zentrum Stuttgart GmbH & Co. KG, which was accounted for using the equity
method, have been withdrawn from the group.
Subsidiaries excluded from consolidation and participating interests are always reported
at their cost of purchase, as no active market exists for the shares of these companies and
no fair value can reliably be determined with a justifiable amount of effort. These subsidiar-
ies are substantially dormant companies or companies with only limited business opera-
tions.
