Recording guidelines for gold transactions

Gold is initially recorded at cost and subsequently revalued at the market value
based on international market’s average rates per ounce of gold every month
end. Gold is recorded in the Khmer Riel (“Riel”), which is the Central Bank’s
functional and presentation currency. Both revaluations for price changes
(changes in market price) and exchange rate changes (foreign exchange
translation) are recorded to an equity account. The gold bullion is comprised of
physical gold holding and gold receivables (gold certificates), and separated
accounts are used to record two forms of gold.

1. Gold Acquisition

2. Gold Deposits

The gold price and exchange rate to be used in determining the amount
are the latest market price and exchange rate used for gold revaluation.
For example, the latest revaluation rates are 1 gold ounce = 1,100USD and
1USD = 4,000KHR for gold price and exchange rate respectively; so the
amount would be 4,400,000,000KHR when making a term deposit of
1,000 gold ounce (1,000 gold ounce x 1,100USD x 4,000KHR).

3. Monthly accrued interest income from gold deposits
