Contingencies [Abstract] |
CONTINGENCIES | 21. CONTINGENCIES The Company’s operations in the PRC are subject to specific considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America and Western Europe. These include risks associated with, among others, the political, economic and legal environments and foreign currency exchange. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion and remittance abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things. The Company’s sales, purchases and expense transactions are denominated in RMB and all of the Company’s assets and liabilities are also denominated in RMB. The RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currencies under the current law. In China, foreign exchange transactions are required by law to be transacted only by authorized financial institutions. Remittances in currencies other than RMB may require certain supporting documentation in order to make the remittance. The Company sells electricity to its customers and receives commercial notes (bank acceptance) from them in lieu of payments for accounts receivable. The Company discounts the commercial notes with the bank or endorses the commercial notes to vendors for payment of their own obligations or to get cash from third parties. Most of the commercial notes have a maturity of less than six (6) months. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, Xi’an TCH had outstanding notes receivable of $0 and RMB 4 million ($656,071), respectively. Xi’an TCH was granted a subsidy by Xi’an City Science and Technology Bureau and Xi’an City Finance Bureau under Xi’an Hi-Tech Industry Development Special Project Fund. The special project fund for Xi’an TCH is for a three (3) years period, from January 1, 2012 to December 31, 2014, with two criteria established to measure the performance of Xi’an TCH: (i) total accumulated sales in three (3) years should be RMB 320 million ($52.8 million), and (ii) total accumulated taxable income should be RMB 56.9 million ($9.0 million). In 2012, Xi’an TCH’s total sales were RMB 129 million ($20.5 million) and total taxable income was RMB 59.8 million ($9.5 million) under PRC GAAP. Xian TCH achieved total accumulated taxable income target of RMB 56.9 million ($9.0 million) in 2012 under PRC GAAP. In 2013, Xi’an TCH’s total sales were RMB 154 million ($24.9 million) under PRC GAAP; in the three (3) months ended March 31, 2014, Xi’an TCH’s total sales were RMB 45 million ($7.4 million) under PRC GAAP; as a result, Xian TCH achieved total accumulated sales target of RMB 320 million ($52.8 million) under PRC GAAP as of March 31, 2014, and therefore was fully entitled to the subsidy income. Total subsidy income for three (3) years was $499,000 (RMB 3.15 million) and Xi’an TCH paid third party consulting company fees of $149,700 (RMB 945,000), for services relating to project evaluation and audit, application document preparation, assembling and compiling, the net subsidy received was $349,300 (RMB 2.21 million), which was recorded as part of other income.
