③ The main reasons for the company's large losses in 2021 and the losses mainly concentrated in the fourth quarter are as follows:

1) Reasons for the company's large losses in 2021

a. The gross profit margin of the company in this reporting period is relatively low. The overall gross profit margin is expected to be 20.55%, down 4.16% from 24.71% last year; Among them, the gross profit margin of commercial housing sales is expected to be 28.70%, down 9.7% from 38.40% last year;

b. The amount of impairment provision to be withdrawn in 2021 is 800-1 billion yuan. According to the requirements of the accounting standards for business enterprises, the company conducts impairment tests on inventory and other asset items every year. Due to the continuous downward trend of the real estate market and the repeated impact of the epidemic, based on the principle of prudence, the company plans to withdraw impairment reserves for some inventory items and intangible assets;

c. During the reporting period, due to the judicial disposal of some shares of Bank Of Changsha Co.Ltd(601577) held by the wholly-owned subsidiary Hunan Macrolink Culturaltainment Development Co.Ltd(000620) Construction Engineering Co., Ltd., the company is expected to recognize an investment loss of 620 million yuan;

d. The financial expenses in the reporting period are expected to be 1.489 billion yuan, an increase of 256 million yuan over the same period last year, of which the interest expenditure (including penalty interest) is expected to be 1.548 billion yuan, an increase of 174 million yuan over the same period last year, which is due to the gradual completion of the project over time and the cessation of interest capitalization in accordance with the requirements of the accounting standards for business enterprises.

2) The rationality of losses concentrated in the fourth quarter

The company suffered a loss of 1.788 billion yuan in the first three quarters of 2021, of which Bank Of Changsha Co.Ltd(601577) some shares were judicially disposed, resulting in an investment loss of 620 million yuan. The company expects a loss of 2.940 billion yuan to 3.720 billion yuan in the whole year and 1.152 billion yuan to 1.932 billion yuan in the fourth quarter. The main reasons are as follows:

a. The amount of asset impairment is large. The company conducts asset impairment test at the end of each year, calculates the impairment of various assets and withdraws asset impairment reserves. During the reporting period, the company expects to make provision for asset impairment of RMB 800-1 billion, which is mainly due to the impact of the overall downturn of the real estate market since 2021. In order to eliminate the real estate project as soon as possible and return cash in 2022, the company will have impairment;

b. Interest expense increased. The annual interest expenditure is expected to be 1.548 billion yuan, the interest expenditure in the first three quarters is 961 million yuan, and the interest expenditure in the fourth quarter is expected to be 587 million yuan, which is mainly due to the cessation of capitalization and conversion of interest into expensed interest after the completion and delivery of the project;

c. Increased costs during the period. The annual expenses (taxes and surcharges, sales expenses and management expenses) are expected to be 2.015 billion yuan, 973 million yuan in the first three quarters and 1.042 billion yuan in the fourth quarter. The real estate sales carry over income in the first three quarters was 2.392 billion yuan, and the expected carry over income in the fourth quarter was 4.246 billion yuan, with a carry over increase of 43.67%. With the centralized delivery of real estate projects in the fourth quarter, the corresponding taxes, surcharges and sales expenses Commission increased; At the same time, according to the company's system, the increase of accrued bonus at the end of the year resulted in the increase of management and sales expenses.

In conclusion, it is reasonable for the company to concentrate its losses in the fourth quarter.

2. In combination with the operation of your company, the region where the real estate is located and the sales situation, the specific content of intangible assets, etc., explain the main inventory items and the specific situation of intangible assets for which large impairment is accrued, the basis for impairment accrual, the setting of key parameters and the specific calculation process, as well as the main reasons, compliance and rationality of large impairment accrual. The annual audit accountant shall check and give opinions.

reply:

(1) Business conditions of the company and its real estate sales area

See the reply to question 1 for details of the company's operation, real estate location and sales.

(2) Details of major inventories and intangible assets

See the reply to question 1 for details of major inventory and intangible assets.

(3) Impairment accrual basis, key parameter settings and specific calculation process, as well as the main reasons, compliance and rationality of large impairment accrual

1) Basis for withdrawing inventory impairment

The company's inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The net realizable value of inventory refers to the amount of the estimated selling price of inventory minus the estimated cost to be incurred at the time of completion, estimated selling expenses and relevant taxes in daily activities. If the management of the company revises the estimated selling price of the inventory, the estimated cost to be incurred by the time of completion, the estimated selling expenses and relevant taxes, the revised estimated selling price is lower than the currently adopted estimated selling price, or the revised estimated cost to be incurred by the time of completion, the estimated selling expenses and relevant taxes are higher than the currently adopted estimates, The company needs to withdraw depreciation reserves for inventory increase. On the contrary, the company needs to reverse the originally accrued falling price reserves for inventories.

The parameters used in determining the net realizable value mainly include the estimated selling price of inventory, the estimated cost to be incurred by the time of completion, the estimated selling expenses and relevant taxes. The signed inventory price shall be confirmed according to the actual signed inventory price; For the inventory not contracted, it is based on the average selling price of the same project in the current year, with reference to the price trend of the real estate market in the region and the transaction price of the surrounding buildings of the same business type. For the inventory that fails to reach the delivery status, the estimated cost is comprehensively calculated according to the actual completion progress, actual cost and estimated total cost of the project. The estimated sales expenses are calculated based on the historical data and the percentage of sales expenses in revenue in different regions, combined with the company's marketing strategy planning. The relevant taxes and fees are calculated according to the estimated selling price according to the relevant tax policies and regulations of the area where the real estate is located.

2) Basis for impairment of intangible assets

According to the accounting standards for Business Enterprises No. 8 - asset impairment, goodwill and intangible assets with uncertain service life formed by business combination shall be tested for impairment every year, regardless of whether there are signs of impairment. The final maturity date of the license management right held by the company is uncertain, so it will not be amortized during the holding period, but the company will conduct impairment test for it in each accounting period.

3) Inventory key parameter setting and specific calculation process

In this period, it is planned to withdraw inventory falling price reserves for three projects: Tianjin Yuelan Bay, Taicang Binjiang Yayuan and Daqing Aslan town.

Taicang Binjiang Yayuan project is expected to have a total remaining contract amount of 1.291 billion yuan, an estimated sales tax and surcharges (including value-added tax) of 109 million yuan, a sales expense of 116 million yuan, an estimated net realizable value of 1.066 billion yuan and an inventory book value of 1.371 billion yuan. According to the difference between net realizable value and book value, an inventory falling price reserve of about 300 million yuan is accrued.

It is estimated that the total remaining contract amount of Tianjin Yuelan Bay project is 863 million yuan, the estimated sales tax and surcharges (including value-added tax) is 71 million yuan, the sales expense is 65 million yuan, the estimated net realizable value is 727 million yuan, and the book value of inventory is 958 million yuan. According to the difference between the net realizable value and the book value, the provision for inventory falling price is about 231 million yuan.

Daqing Aslan town project is expected to have a total remaining contract amount of 445 million yuan, and the expected sales taxes and surcharges (including value-added tax)
