The assets are divided into two groups, i.e. the assets for business and the assets for
rent respectively in business places. Since land prices have dropped due to the burst of
the bubble economy, mainly book value of the assets groups as marketing base was
decreased to the recoverable amount. As a result of this change, "income before income
taxes" decreased by 3,774 million yen. Its breakdown is 3,752 million yen for land and
21 million yen for others. The amount is included in "other income and expenses" of
