Key
Audit Matters
The
key
audit
matter
is
a matter
that,
in
o
ur
professional
judgment,
was
of
most
significance
in
our
audit
of the consolidated financial sta
tements of the current period.
This matter
was addressed in the context
of
our
audit
of
the
consolidated
financial
statements
as
a
whol
e,
and
in
forming
our
opinion
thereon,
and we do not provide a separ
ate opinion on this matter
.
(A)
Sales deduction related
to sales promotion activities
Reasons why the matter was determined to be a key audit matter:
The Information technology &
Mobile communications (IM) and Con
sumer Electronics (CE) business
divisions
perform
sales
promotion
activities,
such
as
price
or
volume
discounts
and
incentives,
based
on explicit
or
implicit agreements
with
customers, including
retail and
telecommunication
companies.
As
disclosed
in
Notes
2
(Significant Accounting
Policies)
and
3
(Critical
Accounting
Estimates
and
Assumptions),
these
activities
are
recognized
as
deductions
fro
m
revenue
at
the
expected
payment
amount.
As
for
the
appropriateness
of
t
he
revenue
deduction
amounts,
su
ch
amounts
may
involve
significant
management estimates
and judgments.
In addition,
we believe
that those amounts
could be
material to
the
consolidated
financial
state
ments.
As
such,
we
determined
t
he
sales
deduction
related
to
sales
promotion activities as a key audit matter
.
How the Key Audit Matter was addressed in the audit
Our
audit
procedures
with
respect
to
the
Company’s
sales
promot
ion
activities
related
to
the
sales
of
products included, but were not
limited to the followi
ng:
•
Obtained an understanding
of management’
s accounting
policies,
processes a
nd internal
controls related to the sales deduction.
•
Obtained
an
understanding
and
evaluated
the
Company’
s
informati
on
technology
system
related to the sales deduction.
•
Assessed the
Company’
s internal controls
relating to the approv
al p
rocess of the
sales
deduction policy
.
•
Evaluated the
Company’
s internal controls
relating to the
appro
val process of the
sales
deduction estimation and post-settled amounts.
•
Evaluated
the
estimates
and
accompanying
assumptions
by
inspect
ing
supporting
documentation relating to the
sales deduction transactions.
•
Examined
the
sales
deduction
amount
by
comparing
the
sales
dedu
ction
estimates
to
post-
settled amounts and inspecting supporting documentation.
Responsibilities of
Management and
Those Charged
with Governanc
e
for
the Consolidated
Financial Statements
Management
is responsible
for
t
he
preparation of
the accompanyi
ng
consolidated financial
statements
in
accordance
with
K-IFRS,
and
fo
r
such
internal
control
as
the
y determine
is
n
ecessary
to
enable
the
preparation of
consolidated financial
statements that
are free
from material
misstatement,
whether due
to fraud or error
.
In
preparing
the
consolidated
financial
statements,
management
of
the
Company
is
responsible
for
assessing
the
Company’
s
ability
to
continue
as
a
going
concern,
disclosing,
as
applicable,
matters
related
to
going
concern
and
using
the
going
concern
basis
of
a
ccounting
unless
management
either
intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has
no realistic alternative but to
do so.
Those
charged
with
governance
are
responsible
for
overseeing
the
Company’
s
financial
reporting
process.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements
Our
objectives
are to
obtain
reasonable
assurance
about
whether
the
consolidated financial
statements
as a whole are free from material
misstatement, whether due to
fraud or error
, and to issue an auditor
’
s
report
that
includes
our
opinion.
Reasonable
assuranc
e
is
a
hig
h
level
of
assurance,
but
is
not
a
guarantee
that
an
audit
conducted
in
accord
ance
with
KSAs
will
always
det
ect
a
material
misstatement
when
it
exists. Misstatements can arise
from fraud or error and
are con
sidered material if, indivi
dually or in the
aggregate, they
could reasonably be
expected to
influence the e
cono
mic decisions
of users
tak
en on
the
basis of these consolidated financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordan
ce with KSAs, we exercise profes
sional judgment and maintain
professional skepticism throughout the audit.
W
e also:
•
Identify and
assess the
risks of
material misstatement of
the c
onsolidated financial statements,
whether
due
to fraud
or
error
,
design
and
perform audit
procedu
res
responsive
to
those
risks,
and
obtain
audit
evidence
that
is
sufficient
and
appropriate
to
p
r
o
v
i
d
e
a
b
a
s
i
s
f
o
r
o
u
r
a
u
d
i
t
opinion. The risk
of
not detecting
a
material
misstatement
resu
lting from
fraud is
higher
than
for
one
resulting
from
error,
as
fraud
may
involve
collusion,
f
orgery
,
intentional
omissions,
misrepresentations, or the ove
rride of internal control.
•
Obtain
an
understanding
of
internal
c
ontrol
relevant
to
the
aud
it
in
order
to
design
audit
procedures that are
appropriate in the
circumstances, but
not f
or the
purpose of expressing an
opinion on the ef
fectiveness of the Company’
s internal control.
•
Evaluate
the
appropriateness of
accounting
policies used
and th
e reasonableness
o
f
accounting
estimates and related disclos
ures made by management.
•
Conclude
on
the
appropriateness
of
the
management’
s
use
of
the
going
concern
basis
of
accounting
and,
based
on
the
audit
evidence
obtained,
whether
a
material
uncertainty
exists
related
to
events
or
conditions
that
may
cast
significant
doubt
on
the
Company’
s
ability
to
continue as a
going concern. If
we conclude that a
material unc
ertainty exists, we
are required
to draw attention
in our auditor
’
s report to the
related disclo
sures in the consolidated
financial
statements
or
,
if
such
disclosures
are
inadequate,
to
modify
ou
r
opinion.
Our conclusions
are
based
on
the
audit
evidence
obtained
up
to
the
date
of
our
audi
tor’
s
report.
However
,
future
events or conditions may cause
the Company to cease to continue
as a going concern.
•
Evaluate
the
overall
presentation,
structure
and
content
of
t
he
consolidated
financial
statements, including
the disclosures, and whether the
consolid
ated financial statements
represent the underlying transacti
ons and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
•
Obtain suf
ficient appropriate
audit evidence regarding
the fina
ncial
information of
the entities
or business activities within
the Company to express an opinion
on the consolidated
financial
statements.
W
e
are
responsible
for
the
d
irection,
supervision
a
nd
p
erformance
o
f
the
group
audit. W
e are
solely responsible for our audit opinion.
W
e
communicate
with
those
charged
with
governance
regarding,
am
ong
other
matters,
the
planned
scope
and
timing
of
the
audit
and
significant
audit
findings,
i
ncluding
any
significant
defici
encies
in
internal control that we identify during our audit.
W
e
also
provide those
charged with
governance with
a
statement
that we
have
complied
with relevant
ethical
requirements
regarding
independence,
and
to communicate
with
them all
relationships
and
other
matters
that
may
reasonably
be
t
hought
to
bear
on
our
independe
nce,
and
where
applicable,
related
safeguards.
From the m
atters communicated with
those charged with
governanc
e, we det
ermine those
matters that
were of
most significance in
the audit of
the consolidated
fina
ncial statements of
the current period
and
are
therefore
the
key
audit
matters.
W
e
describe
these
matters
in
our
auditor
’
s
report
unless
law
or
regulation
precludes
public
disclosure
about
the
matter
or
when
,
in
extremely
rare
circumstances,
we
determine that
a matter
should
not be
communicated in
our repor
t
because the adverse consequences
of
doing
so w
ould reasonably
be
expected
to outweigh
the
public
in
terest benefits
of
such communication.

(B)
Measurement
At
initial

the
Company measures
a
financial
asset
at
its
fair
value.
In
the
case
of
financial
asset
not
measured
at

through

transaction
costs
that
are
d
irectly
attributable
to
th

acquisition
o
f
the
finan

asset
or
the
issuance of
the financial liabilities are added
to its fair

. Transaction costs
of financial
assets carried
at fair value
thro
ugh
profit or l

t or loss.
Hybrid (co

with embedded de
rivatives are consi
dered in their e
ntirety when determini
ng whether their cas
h
flows solely consist of the paym
ents of principal and interest.
a) Debt instruments

measurement of
debt instruments
depends on t

for managing t
he asset and t

all eq

following
the

When
the

asset
is
derecognized, the
cumulative gain
or
loss
on
valuation
of
financial
assets
at

Changes in the fair value of

ough p
rofit or

recognized in
‘other non

ncome’
or ‘other
non-operating expens
es’ in the consolidated
statement

(C)
Impairment
The
Company
assesses
on
a
forward-looking
basis
the
expected
cr
edit
losses
associated
with
its
debt
instruments
carried
at
amortized
cost
and
fair
value
through
other
comprehe
nsive i
ncom
e.
The
impairment
methodology
applie
d
depends
on
whether
there ha
s been a sig
nificant increase i
n credit ris
k. For trade
receivables, the Company applies
the
simplified
approach, whic
h
requires expected lifetime losses to
be recognized from initial
recognition of the receivables.
(D)
Recogn
ition and derecognition
Regular way purchases and sales o
f fi
nancial assets are recogni
zed or derecognized o
n a trade date basis. Financial assets are
derecognized
when
t
he
rights
to
receive
cash
flows
from
the
fin
ancial
assets
have
expired
or
have
been
transferred
and
the
Company
has
transferred
substantially
all
the
risks
and
rewards
of
ownership.
If
a
transfer
does
not
result
in
derecognition
because the
Company has retained substantially all the
risks an
d rewards of ownership of the transferre
d asset,
the Company
continues
to
reco
gnize
the
transf
erred
asset
in
its
entirety
an
d
recogn

a
f
inancial
liability

The Company classifies the finan
cial liab
ility as ‘borrowings’ in the conso
lidated statement of financial position.

2.8 Invent
ories
Inventories are stated
at
the lower of

2.18 Employe
e Benefits
The Company
has a variety of retireme
nt pension plans includi
ng a defined bene
fit plan and a defi
ned contribution pla

A
defined
contribution
plan
is
a
pension
plan
under
which
the
C
ompan
y
pays
fixed
contributions
into
a
separate
fund.
The
Company has
no legal or con
struc
tiv
e obligation to pay
further
contrib

basis.
The
Company
has no
further
futu
re
payment
obligations
once
the contri
butions
h
ave
been
paid.
The contrib
utions are recogni
zed as employee benefit
expense w
hen they are due. Prepai
d contributions
are recognized as an
asset to the extent that a cash
refund or a reduction in the
f
u
ture payments is available.
A
defined benefit plan
is
a
pension
plan that
is
not
a
defined
contribution plan.
Typically,
a defined
benefit
plan establishe
s
an
amount of
pension
benefit
th
at
an
employee
will receive
upon
retirement, usually
dependent on one
or
more
factors such
as age,
years of serv
ice and co
mpensation. The
liability
(asset
) recognized
in the
consolidated
statement of
financial positio
n
with
respect
to the
defined
benefit
pension
plan
is
the present
value
o
f
the
defined
benefit
obligation
at
the end
of
the
repo
r
ting
period less
the fair
value of
plan
assets. The defined
benefit
oblig
ation
is calculated
annually
by
indep
endent actuaries
usin
g
the
projected
unit
credit
method.
The
present
value
of
the
defi
ned
be
nefit
obligation
is
determined
by
disco
unting
the
estimat
ed
future cash
outflows using the
interest rates of
high-qu

method’,
depending
on
which
method
the

2.25 Leases
A lease is a contract, whereby the lessor c
onveys to the lessee
, the
right to control
the use of an ident
ified asset for a per
iod
of time in e
xchange for consi
deration.
At inceptio
n of a contract, the
Company assesses
whether the co
ntract is, o
r contains
, a lease. However,
the Company did
not
reassess all contracts
at initial application
of Korean IFRS 11
16
Leases
because the Company applied the practical expedient
to contracts entered into b
efore January 1, 2019.
For
a
contract
that
is,
or
contains,
a
lease,
both
lessee
and
l
essor
account
for
each
lease
comp
onent
within
the
contract
as
a
lease
separately from
the
non-l
ease components
of
the contract.
In
lessee a
ccounting, however,
the Company
does not account
for
them
separately
but
instead
applies
the
practical
expedient
to account
for
each
lease
component
and
any
associated
non-
lease components as a single lease component.
(A)
Lessee accounting
The
Company
recognizes
a
rig
ht-of-use
asset
r
epresenting
its
ri
ght
to
use
the
und
erlying
leased
a
sset
and
a
lease
liability
representing its obligatio
n to m
ake lease payments at the c
omme
ncemen
t date of the lease.
The
right-of-use
asset
is
in
itially
measured
at
cost
and
su
bseq
uently
measured
at
cost
less
accumulated
depreciation
and
accumulated
impairment
losses,
adj
usted
for
the
remeasurement
o
f
lease
liability.
The
right-of-use
asset
is
depreciated
ove
r
the shorter
of the
asset’s useful life
and the lease
term from
the
commencement date
of the leas
e
and is
classified as ‘prope
r
ty,
plant and equi
pment’ in the cons
olidated financial stat
ements.
At th
e commencement
date,
the
lease liability
is
measured at
th
e present
value of
the lease
paym
ents that
are no
t paid
at th
at
date. W
hen measuring
the present
value, the
lease payments
are
disco
unted
usin
g th
e int
eres
t rat
e imp
lici
t in t
he le
ase.
If su
ch
implicit
rate cannot
be
readily
determined, the
Company
uses th
e
Company’
s incremental
borrowing
rate. The
lease
liability
is
subsequently
increased
by
the
amount
of
interest
expenses
re
cognized
on
the
lease
liability
and
reduced
by
the
lease
payments made. Lease liabilities are remeasur
ed when the future
lease payment
s are changed due t
o the following:
Changes in a
n index or rate
Changes in amounts expected to be
payable by the lessee under t
he residual value guarantees
Changes in the
assessment of whether a purc
h
ase option o
r an op
tion to
renew is
reason
ably c
ertain
to be exercised, or
Changes
in the
assessment of
whether it
is reasonabl
y certain t
hat
an option to
terminate the lease will
not be exercised.
Lease
liabilitie
s
are
classified
as
‘current
portion
of
long-te
rm
liabilities’
and/or
‘long-term
borrowings’
in
the
consolidat
ed
financial statements.
The
Company
elected
the
practi
cal expedient
for
short-ter
m
leas
es
(lease
s
that
have
a
lease
term
of 12
months
or
less at
the
commencement
date)
and
leases
of
low-value
assets
(leases
for
w
hich
the
underlying
asset
is
valued
at
USD
5,000
or
less),
for which t
h
e lease pa
yments are recognized
as an expense on a
straight
-line basis over the lease term.
(B)
Lessor accounting
The
ac
counting
treatment
as
a
lessor
did
not
change
significant
ly
from
the
Korean
IFRS
1116
Leases
initially
applied
on
January 1, 2
019.
The Company classifies a lease a
s a
finance leas
e if it transfe
rs substantially all th
e risks an
d rewards inciden
tal to owners
hip
at the
inception
of the
lease. A
lease
other than
a finance
lease
is classified

Lease
income from

3. Critical Accounting Estimates
and Assumptions
The
Company
mak
es
estimates
and
assumptions
concerning
the
fu
tu
re.
The
estimates
and
assumptions
are
continuously
assessed,
considering
historical
experience
and
other
factors,
including
expectations
of
future
events
that
are
believed
to
be
reasonable
under
the
circumstances.
The
resulting
accounting
estimates
will,
by
definition,
seldom
equal
the
related
actual
results. In
particular, the recent
spread of
COVID-19 during th
e year
ended December 31,
2021 may result
in
changes to the
Company’s
assumptions
and
estimates
but
its
potential
financial
impact
cannot
be
reasonably
estimated
as
of
the
reporting
date.
The estimates and assumpt
ions that have a significant ris
k
of c
ausing a material adjustment to
the carrying amounts of
assets
and liabilities within the next financial y
ear are addressed be
low.
(A)
Rev
enue recognition
A refund li
ability and a ri
ght to the ret
urned goods are reco
gn
ized for the
products expect
ed to be returne
d at the time of
sa
le.
Accumulative
experience
is
used
to
estimate
such
returns
at
the
t
i
m

o
f
s
a
l
e
a
t
a
p
o

t
f
o
l
i
o
l
evel
(through
expected
value
method), and t
he Company’s revenue i
s affected by the change
s i
n expected return rate.
Sales
of
goods
are
recognized based
on
the
considerations
specified in
the
contract,
net
of
sales
incentives,
when
control
of
the products ha
s transferred. The
sales deduction, w
hich affect
s the
Company’s revenue,
is reasonably e
stimated based on
the
historical expe
rience and past contracts.
(B)
Provision for warranty
The Company recognizes provision for warranty on products sold.
The Compa
ny accrues
provision f
o
r
warranty based
on the
best
estimate
of
amounts
necessa
ry
to
settle
futur
e
and
existin
g
claims
at
the
end
of
each
reporting
period.
The
amounts
are
estimated based on the past expe
rience.
(C)
Fair value of fi
nancial instruments
The fair
value of fi
nancial instrument
s that are n
ot traded i
n
an active ma
rket is determine
d by using a
variety of met
hods an
d
assumptions that are mainly based on market condition
s existing
at the end of each reporting period
.
(D)
Impairment of financi
al assets
The loss allowance for
financial assets are based on assumption
s about risk of default and expecte
d
loss rates. The Compan
y
uses judgement in making these assumptions and selecting the
in
puts to the impairment calculati
on
based on the Company’s
past history, existin
g market c
onditions as well as forward loo
king estimates at the end
of each re
porting period.
(E)
Lease
In
determining
the
lease
term, th
e
Company
considers
all
facts
and
circumstances
that
create
an
economic
incentiv
e
to
exercise
an extensio
n option, or not to exercise a t
ermination option. E
xtension option
s (or periods after terminat
ion options) are onl
y
included i
n
the
lease term if th
e lease is reasonably certain t
o be
extended (or
not terminated).
The lease term is reassessed if
an option is
actually exercised
(or n
ot exercised) or the Com
pany becomes obliged t
o exercise
(or
not
exercise)
it.
The Co
mpany
reassesses whet
her it
is reas
onab
ly
certain to
exercise
an
extension
option (or
not to
e
xerc
ise
such
option)
upon
the
occurrence
of
either
a
significant
event
or
a
significant
change
in
circumstances
that
is
within
the
con
trol
of the lessee.

(G)
Imp
airment of goodwill and intang
ible assets that have an ind
ef
inite useful life
At
the
end of
each
reportin
g period
, the
Company
tests
whether
goodwill
and
intangible
assets
that
have a
n ind
efinite useful
life have become i
mpaired by comparing
the carrying amount
s of assets or cash-ge
nerating units to
the recovera
ble amounts.
The
recoverable
amounts
of
assets
or
cash-generating
units
have
been
determined
based
on
valu
e-in-use
calcu
lations,
an
d
these calculations are based on estimates.
(H)
Income taxes
Income taxes
on
the Company’s taxable
income from
operating act
ivities
are
subject
to
various
tax
laws
and
determination
s
of
each
tax
authority
across
va
rious
countries
throughout
the
w
orld.
There
is
uncertainty
in
determining
the
even
tual
tax
effe
cts
on
the
taxable income
from operating
activities. The
Company
ha
s recognized
current
ta
x
and deferred tax
at
the
end
of
the
fiscal
year
based
on the
best
estimate
of f
uture t
axes paya
ble
as
a result
of operating
activities. However,
the resulting
def
erred
income tax assets and liabilitie
s may n
ot equal the actual futu
re taxes paya
ble and such difference
may impact the cur
rent tax
and deferred income tax assets
and liab
ilities upon the determi
nation of eventual
tax effects.
Regarding ta
xes payable in Korea
, if a certain porti
on of taxable income i
s not used for i
nvestments or for inc
reases in wages
or
dividends,
in
accordance
with
the
Tax System For Recirculatio
n of Corporate Income
,
the
Company
is
liable
to
pay
additional
income
tax
calcu
lated
based
on
the
Ko
rean
tax
law.
T
he
current
and
deferred
tax
at
the
end
of
the
fiscal year
are
based
on the best
estimate of
future taxes
payable, whi
ch can d
iffer
from the actual future
taxes payable as
a result of c
hang
es
in investments, wages and
dividends; this results in
an additio
nal uncertainty in meas
uring the final tax
effects.
The
Company
assesses
uncertainty
over
a
tax
treatment.
When
the
Company
concludes
it
is
not
probabl
e
that
the
taxation
authority
will
accept
an
uncertain
t
ax
treatment,
the
Company
w
ill
reflect
th
e
effect
of
un
cert
ainty
for
each
uncertain
tax
treatment
by
using
eith
er
of
the
following
methods,
depen
ding
o
n
which
metho
d
the
Company
expects
to
better
predict
the
resolution of the uncertainty:
-
The most li
k
ely amount
: the single most like
ly amount in a range of
possible outcomes.
-
The expected value: the sum of t
h
e probability-weighted amounts
in a range of possi
ble outcomes.
