1. Matters Regarding Summary Information
- Changes in Accounting Policies and Changes in Accounting Estimates
The material accounting policies adopted for the condensed interim consolidated financial statements are the same as those for the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 except the following item. The Group computes income taxes for the interim period based on the estimated average annual effective tax rate. The Company and certain subsidiaries transitioned from the consolidated taxation system to the group tax sharing system from the first quarter ended March 31, 2023.
(Changes in Accounting Policies)
The Group has adopted the following new accounting standards, amended standards and new interpretations from the beginning of the first quarter ended March 31, 2023.
IFRS
IFRS 1 | Presentation of Financial |
Statements | |
Description of new standards and amendments
Amended in order to carry out disclosures using material accounting policies instead of significant accounting policies
The adoption of the above standards and interpretations does not have a material impact on the condensed interim consolidated financial statements.
(Changes in Accounting Estimates)
The Group had previously used a period of 10 to 15 years for the estimated useful lives of tobacco production machinery. However, in consideration of changes in the business environment, the Group has, from the year ending December 31, 2023, revised the estimated useful lives for some tobacco production machinery to 18 years based on estimated economically useful lives that are more consistent with actual conditions and applied this change prospectively.
As a result, operating profit for the three months ended March 31, 2023 increased by ¥2,388 million compared to the figure calculated using the previous method.
