3. PREPAID LAND LEASES | The Company has the rights to use certain parcels of land located in Shouguang, the PRC, through lease agreements signed with local townships or the government authority. The production facilities and warehouses of the Company are located on these parcels of land. The lease term ranges from ten to fifty years. Some of the lease contracts were paid in one lump sum upfront and some are paid annually at the beginning of each anniversary date. These leases have no purchase option at the end of the lease term and were classified as operating lease prior to and as of January 1, 2019 when the new lease standard was adopted. Prior to January 2019, the prepaid land lease was amortized on a straight line basis. As of January 1, 2019, all these leases that have commenced were classified as operating lease right-of-use assets (“ROU”). See Note 6. In December 2017, the Company paid a one lump sum upfront amount of $9,442,047 for a 50-year lease of a parcel of land at Bohai Marine Fine Chemical Industrial Park (“Bohai”) for the new chemical factory to be built. There is no purchase option at the end of the lease term. This was classified as an operating lease prior to and as of January 1, 2019. The land use certificate is being processed by the government and the commencement date of the lease will be known upon completion of the application process. Since the construction plan of the factory at Bohai is still in the process of being approved by the government and the lease term of the land has not commenced, the Company classified the lease payment in prepaid land lease instead of Right-of –use assets. No amortization of this prepaid land lease was recorded as of March 31, 2019. During the three-month period ended March 31, 2018, amortization of prepaid land lease totaled $144,097 was recorded as direct labor and factory overheads incurred during plant shutdown. For parcels of land that are collectively owned by local townships, the Company cannot obtain land use rights certificates. The parcels of land of which the Company cannot obtain land use rights certificates cover a total of approximately 38.6 square kilometers of aggregate carrying value of $599,747 as at December 31, 2018.
