Officium et Civitas 敬業樂群 The University motto encapsulates our educational philosophy and the attitude we want our students to develop. The first two Chinese words 敬業 encompass the requirement to combine academic professionalism and career ethics. The last two words 樂群 emphasise personal growth and development, and advocate group spirit and the need to care for society. Officium et Civitas is the Latin translation for the motto. Officium denotes a high-minded sense of duty. Civitas refers to both town/city and “union of citizens”.

City University of Hong Kong Annual Report 2008 – 2009 Chairman’s Foreword


As a new Chairman of the CityU Council who joined this vibrant community last October, it is with a sense of pride and satisfaction that I introduce the 2008-09 Annual Report for City University of Hong Kong (CityU) which coincides with its 25th anniversary. The future of Hong Kong depends heavily on the size and quality of its talent pool. All in the tertiary education sector owe the people of Hong Kong the duty to provide the best possible education to the students. As a major and publicly funded university in Hong Kong, we are no exception. There may well be other demand for our resources and attention, but students’ best interests have to come first. At the same time, we are here also to ensure that the best possible education that is provided will, through the diligence of the students themselves, produce graduates of the highest possible calibre. They have to be competitive enough to continue to command a large premium over their counterparts in the region in whatever they choose to do. Our focus on professional education and research has secured the University’s central role in not only meeting the various needs of the Hong Kong society but also ensures that our graduates are competitive on the regional and international stage. Various sectors of the economy and society continue to benefit from the growing number of graduates whose professional competence, aptitude and communication skills, nurtured during their studies, enable them to move into coveted positions in Hong Kong and the region. The number of prizes, best paper awards and accolades bestowed upon our student body are testament to the quality of students that CityU attracts and the tireless, creative and energetic efforts of our committed and highly-regarded faculty and teaching staff. Close collaboration with industry has seen useful application of our innovative research to many sectors. 去年10月,我接任香港城市大學校董會主席,躬逢25周年校慶,並於此首次為城大的年度報告提序,深感榮幸。 香港的未來發展,人才的質和量是決定性因素。凡本港高教界同寅,均有責任為香港的下一代提供最好的高等教育,為國家、為 社會培養最優秀的畢業生。城大作為本港一所重要的公立大學,更不例外。「生之者寡,食之者眾」,本港的教育資源並非無窮無 盡,因此更應以學生的最高利益為首要。同時,學生也應盡最大努力,通過大學提供的最好教育,成為最優秀的畢業生。 城大教研並重,培養的畢業生不僅可以滿足本港社會各方面的需求,而且在亞太區乃至世界各地的不同領域皆有優異展現。城大 同寅充分了解畢業生踏出城大校門之後,不分行業,不分崗位,必須具備足够的競爭能力,才能在亞太區中爭一日長短。 城大畢業生為社會貢獻所學所長,以學識和專業技能,在本港和亞太區各地贏得令人稱羨的職位。此外,本校學生贏得的大獎、 最佳研究論文獎及其他讚譽,不可勝數,在在證明城大學生的素質。同時,教研人員以飽滿的精神、充沛的創意,克盡己職,令 人敬佩。城大與產業界的密切協作,更使校內多項創新研究成果,得以用得其所,反饋社會。

Twenty five years is a relatively young age for a university but at the culmination of that quarter century CityU has come a long way. The academic portfolio of the institution has grown and developed through the devotion and commitment of our staff members and students, establishing the University as an internationally recognised institution ranked among the best 150 universities in the world this year according to The Times Higher Education Supplement. We believe the University will continue to scale new heights. We have built our strength in developing professional education and intellectual capability in major disciplines in the colleges of Business, Science and Engineering, Humanities and Social Sciences and the two schools of Law and Creative Media. Added to this family of disciplines is a new School of Energy and Environment approved this year by the Council to address two pressing issues of our time. The growth in this new and important area can enhance our niche in advancing knowledge and contributing to the development of higher education in Hong Kong and the region. While we continue to grow in terms of the breadth and variety of our curriculum, we also face the significant challenge of ensuring that we have in place a good learning and teaching environment and facilities to provide a stimulating learning experience for our students and support to our broader academic endeavours. Thanks in large part to the support that CityU receives from the Government, donors and the wider community, a major expansion of the Kowloon Tong campus and the addition of research facilities in Shenzhen is underway. With the advent of the 2012 four-year normative degree structure drawing ever closer, the Council has made this expansion one of its top priorities. Major milestones of several capital projects have been reached including the Multi-media Building, the Community College Building and the new Academic and Administration Building to cope with the expansion of the undergraduate curriculum. We are also embarking on a further expansion of our student residences. 一所25歲的大學,正如東昇的旭日,雖然只走了四分之一世紀,但已成就斐然。師生的共同努力,令教學研究水平不斷提高,國 際聲譽逐年上升:據《泰晤士報高等教育特刊》評鑑,城大現已躋身全球最佳150學府之列。我們深信,城大必將繼續進步,再創新 高。 在城大的商學院、科學及工程學院、人文及社會科學學院、法律學院、創意媒體學院,主要學科都開設了各有擅長的專業課程, 形成強大的研究力量。 今年校董會通過創辦能源及環境學院,適切社會需要,並正確應對當今世界亟待解決的兩大難題。這一重大領域的開發,將繼續 提升城大的獨特地位,不斷拓展知識領域,並推進本港乃至亞太區的高等教育。 課程數量日益增多,城大積極準備面對各種考驗,以確保良好的教學環境與設施,及學生的求學經歷,同時要促進整體教學水 平。得政府、捐助者、社會各界的鼎力支持,城大正在擴建九龍塘校園和深圳的研究設施。 本科四年制即將在2012年開始施行,時間緊迫,校董會將各有關擴建工程列為當務之急。數項重大擴建工程正進行得如火如荼, 包括多媒體大樓、專上學院大樓,以及新的教學行政大樓,為轉制做好充分準備。此外,學生宿舍也開始進一步擴建。

City University of Hong Kong Annual Report 2008 – 2009 Chairman’s Foreword


Numerous innovative research projects which are of high relevance to society have been awarded funding from the Research Grants Council (RGC). The announcement of the 2008-09 General Research Fund revealed that 127 CityU projects were funded with a net value of more than $61.2 million. Three research projects led by CityU also received funding from RGC’s Collaborative Research Fund 2008-09 totaling $16.2 million, making CityU the recipient of the highest amount of funding among the local universities. This is a true reflection of the diverse and outstanding research abilities of our University and drives research that could ultimately yield an array of discoveries or improvements to current and developing technologies. The far-reaching changes in the Country and in Hong Kong in the past 25 years will not slow down. City University will continue to envision its future with a clear sense of purpose, anticipating and responding to new developments, staying well ahead of the many curves and exceeding expectations. 城大眾多的研究項目獲研究資助局(研資局)撥款資助,各項目與社會密切相關。2008–09年度,城大有127項研究獲得資助,總值 超過6,120萬元。此外,由城大領導的三項研究也獲得研資局2008–09年度協作研究金,總值達1,620萬元,令城大成為獲得最高 額研究金的本地院校,充分證明城大的科研質量。城大獲得的資助將促進研究,並最終取得一系列發現或進展,推動當前和未來 科技的進步。 過去25年,中國內地和香港的發展,對未來有深遠影響,這個大趨勢今後將更為彰顯。 城大放眼未來,與全社會走在時代的前沿,必將乘風而起,再創佳績。

City University of Hong Kong Annual Report 2008 – 2009 Treasurer’s Report


Overview 2008–09 was a most eventful and challenging year in financial management for the University. We have been affected by the most devastating series of financial catastrophes that investors globally have ever suffered. Despite this, the cumulative surpluses built up in successive years through prudent investment practices, continued productivity growth and cost-effective management strategies have served to cushion the impact of the severe economic downturn and provided the necessary financial support for the University to continue its initiatives and programmes as planned. While the Group reported a deficit of $723 million for the financial year, due in part to the strategic allocation of the University Reserves for the recruitment of quality staff, enhancement of learning and research infrastructure and facilities, and improvement in campus ambience, I am pleased to report that our balance sheet remains strong and our reserves remain at a satisfactory level. The University has taken appropriate steps to minimise the impact of the unforeseeable financial crisis so as to provide a stable budget environment in which our progressive academic programmes and the preparations for the phase-in of the four-year normative degree structure can continue in an orderly pace.

摘要 2008–09年度對大學財務管理來說是不同尋常和充滿挑戰的一年。連串波及全球投資者的重大金融事件,我們也難免受影響。然 而,過往多年穩健投資累積的財政盈餘、持續增長的生產力,以及有效的成本管理策略,均減輕了這次經濟大幅下滑對我們造成 的影響,並為大學提供了必需的財政支持,繼續實行原訂的舉措和計劃。 雖然大學整體於財政年度錄得7億2,300萬元虧損,部分原因是從大學儲備中撥出款項用以聘請高質素員工、提升教學及研究的基 本建設和設施,以及改善校園環境,但大學整體的財政狀況穩健,儲備維持在良好的水平。 大學已採取適當步驟,把難以推測的金融危機帶來的影響減至最低,提供穩定的財政環境,以便正在推行的學術計劃及為迎接本 科四年制所作的準備能夠繼續按部就班地進行。

Financial Results Highlights The consolidated results of the Group for the year ended 30 June 2009 are summarised below:

Income Total consolidated income for the year 2008–09, comprising government subventions, student tuition and other fees, donations and matching grants, interest and net investment return, and other contract and auxiliary revenue, was $2,629 million. In comparison with 2007–08, the reduction of $552 million in revenue was mainly due to a reduction in government subventions and a significant drop in interest and investment income on account of the adverse investment environment.

Government Subventions Government subventions for 2008–09 totalled $1,373 million. In comparison with 2007–08, there was a reduction of $42 million in recurrent grants, $43 million in earmarked grants and $25 million from donation matching grants under the Government’s Matching Grant Scheme. Capital Grants and Alterations, Additions and Improvement Block Allocations and Rates and Government Rent Refund also reduced by $5 million respectively, offset in part by an increase of $4 million from Grants from Government Agencies.

Tuition and Other Income Tuition and other fees from students for the year were $1,416 million. The $42 million increase over 2007–08 was attributable mainly to the increase in student numbers and upward adjustment of tuition fee levels of self-financing programmes. The University has continued to adopt a prudent, diversified and long-term approach to its investments. Nevertheless, the financial turmoil experienced last year had a major impact on the performance of the University’s portfolio. Investment losses for the year were $374 million, with the tactical changes to increase cash funds and deposits. In response to the Fourth Matching Grant Scheme completed in February 2009, the University received generous donations totalling $36 million from corporations, friends of the University and philanthropists. The University is thankful to all donors for their generous financial support, which is essential for the University’s development, research and student education.

收入 2008–09年度的綜合收入為26億2,900萬元,包括政府撥款、學費和其他收費、捐款及配對補助金、利息及淨投資回報,以及其 他合約與雜項收益。收入較2007–08年度減少5億5,200萬元,主要由於政府撥款減少以及投資環境欠佳,導致利息及投資收入下 降。

政府撥款 2008–09年度的政府撥款共13億7,300萬元。與2007–08年度相比,政府經常性撥款減少4,200萬元,特定撥款減少4,300萬元,政 府配對補助金計劃下的捐款配對補助金減少2,500萬元。基本工程撥款及改建、加建、維修及改善工程整體撥款,以及退還差餉及 政府地租分別減少500萬元,但來自其他政府機構撥款則增加400萬元,抵銷了部分減少的撥款。

學費及其他收入 年內的學費及其他收費達到14億1,600萬元,較2007–08年度增加4,200萬元,主要是由於大學自資營運課程的學生人數上升以及 學費水平上調。 大學繼續採取審慎、多元化及長期投資策略。不過,去年的金融風暴嚴重影響大學的投資組合的表現。經策略性增持現金及存款 後,年內投資虧損3億7,400萬元。 在2009年2月結束的第四輪配對補助金計劃中,大學得到各機構、友好及慈善家慷慨捐助,共籌得3,600萬元。大學謹此感謝所有 捐助者慷慨捐款,支持大學的發展、研究及學生教育。

Expenditure Total consolidated expenditure for 2008–09 was $3,352 million, an increase of $307 million, or 10%, as compared with the previous year. This increase in expenditure was mainly due to increases in staffing cost and other investment in infrastructure to support the enhancement of the quality of teaching and research facilities and ambiance and to cope with increase in student numbers and programmes.

開支 2008–09年度綜合開支總額為33億5,200萬元,較去年增加10%,即3億700萬元。開支增加主要因為員工成本及其他基建投資有 所增加,以提高教學及研究設施及環境質素,並配合學生人數及課程數量的上升。

Learning and Research During the year, the Group spent $2,452 million, constituting 73% of total expenditure, on teaching and research, the library, central computing facilities and other academic services. Expenditure on library and central computing facilities in 2008–09 was $276 million, an increase of $64 million, mainly due to the implementation of the long-term notebook loan scheme for needy undergraduate students for the purpose of using improved technology and tools to enhance teaching outcomes and to ease the space problem in providing computer terminals on campus. The increase in expenditure during the year was also due to replacement of personal computers for administrative offices to improve work efficiency and for purchasing of e-resources. Expenditure on research projects and studentships in 2008–09 was $303 million. Of the 1,200 ongoing research projects, 460 were new projects. In addition to research activities funded by recurrent income, earmarked grants of $72 million were spent during the year. The University has also been actively engaged in research that responds to the needs of industry, commerce and the community.

Institutional Support Institutional Support which accounted for 27% of total expenditure in 2008–09 totalled $900 million. To support world-class teaching and research activities, the University has initiated a much needed infrastructure improvement on the facilities and laboratories which have been used for more than 15 years on the main campus for health and safety reasons. Classrooms and lecture theatres were substantially upgraded and large scale energy efficiency works intended to achieve long term savings were also carried out.

Capital Programmes In 2008–09, a total of $334 million was incurred on capital development programmes and various alterations, additions and improvement projects. To meet the University’s academic development needs and associated space requirements, several buildings are currently in the planning or construction phase, including the Multi-media Building, which will be a focal point for the development of creative media in Asia. Other buildings set to enhance the quality of professional education and research are the Academic and Administration Building, Student Residences Phase 4, CCCU Building and the CityU (Shenzhen) Research Institute Building at Shenzhen. The capital outlay for these projects is estimated at $2,570 million.

教育及科研 年內大學整體於教學及科研、圖書館、中央電腦設施及其他教學服務方面的支出共24億5,200萬元,佔總支出73%。 在2008–09年度,圖書館及中央電腦設施的開支為2億7,600萬元,增加了6,400萬元,主要是為有需要的本科生提供手提電腦長期 借用計劃,旨在運用更佳的科技及工具加強教學成效,並減少因提供電腦終端機而佔用的校園用地。年內開支增加的另一原因是 購置電子資源以及為行政部門汰換個人電腦,以提升工作效率。 科研計劃及助學金於2008–09年度的開支為3億300萬元。在1,200項持續進行的科研計劃中,460項為新計劃。研究項目除獲經常 性收入資助外,年內由特定科研撥款資助的項目開支共7,200萬元。大學亦積極發展配合工商界及社會需要的研究。

教學支援 2008–09年度教學支援開支共9億元,佔總開支27%。 為支持世界級的教學及研究活動,並保障學生及員工的健康及安全,大學為已使用逾15年的校園設施和實驗室進行必需的改善工 程。此外,大幅提升課室及演講廳的設施水平,並進行大型能源效益改善工程,以便長遠節省資源。

基本工程項目 2008–09年度基本工程及其他改建、加建、維修及改善工程項目的開支共3億3,400萬元。 為配合大學的學術發展及有關用地的需求,大學正籌建或興建多幢建築物,其中包括將成為亞洲創意媒體發展中心的多媒體大 樓。其他用以加強專業教育及研究質素的建築物分別有教學行政大樓、第四期學生宿舍、城大專上學院大樓以及位於深圳的城大 (深圳)產學研大樓。所有工程項目總資本支出預計為25億7,000萬元。

City University of Hong Kong Annual Report 2008 – 2009 Treasurer’s Report


Self-financed Teaching Activities During the year under review, student enrolment in quality self-financing programmes hit a record high and contributed $1,002 million to the Group’s income, an increase of 3% over 2007–08. With the return of the staff seconded to CCCU since its establishment in 2004, CCCU is operating on a clean slate, as it turned completely self-financing on 1 July 2008. It is pleasing to report that SCOPE is on track to achieve better than budgeted financial results.

Subsidiaries and Associates The income received and expenditure incurred by University subsidiaries in 2008–09 was $345 million and $185 million respectively. After taking into account the consolidated entity’s share of net surpluses of associates and other non-operating income and expenses and taxation, the surplus of income over expenditure for the year was $178 million, compared with a surplus of $161 million last year.

Moving forward While the investment environment seems to have stabilised in recent months, we have not seen clear signs of full economic recovery and sustained improvement in investment conditions. Instead of cutting expenditure that will affect the University’s development, we will provide a stable budget environment by investing further in new academic initiatives and fundraising activities, and to provide adequate resources to position ourselves in this critical transitional period to the four-year undergraduate programme structure. To further improve the quality of education, the 2009–10 budgets will be funded in part by the University Reserves. In an operating environment in which public funding and investment income are on the decline, we have implemented measures to further improve productivity and efficiency. We have also fostered, without adversely affecting the quality of academic activities, a healthy income-generating culture that continues to look for income from private sources, in particular from benefactions and alumni, from self-financing courses and programmes, and from the industry through transfer of technology and commercialisation of research results. By investing wisely, managing strategically and spending prudently, we are well positioned for the future.

自資營運課程 年內開設的優質自資營運課程,收生人數創紀錄,為大學整體帶來10億200萬元收入,較2007–08年度增加3%。 原本借調至2004年成立的城大專上學院的員工回歸大學本部後,城大專上學院自2008年7月1日起完全自資營運,獨立運作。專業 進修學院亦取得較財政預算為佳的業績。

附屬及聯營公司 2008–09年度附屬公司的收入及開支分別為3億4,500萬元及1億8,500萬元。計入綜合帳目的應佔聯營公司淨盈餘、其他非營運收 入與開支及稅項以後,年內收入減去開支共錄得盈餘1億7,800萬元,去年的盈餘為1億6,100萬元。

前瞻 金融市場最近數月雖然看似穩定,但我們仍未看到經濟全面復蘇以及投資環境持續改善的清晰跡象。為避免影響大學發展,我們 不欲採取削減開支的政策;相反,我們會通過進一步投資於新的學術項目及進行籌款活動,以提供穩定的財政環境,並提供充足 資源為現今過渡至大學四年制本科課程的關鍵時期作好預備。為進一步提升教育質素,2009–10年度的部分財政預算將由大學儲 備撥款支持。 面對目前政府撥款及投資收入下降的營運環境,我們已推行多項措施以進一步提升生產力及效率。此外,在不影響學術活動質素 原則下,我們已營造良好的開源文化,包括私人募捐及校友捐獻、開辦自資營運科目及課程、技術轉移和研究成果的商品化。通 過明智投資、策略管理以及謹慎開支,我們已為未來的發展作好準備。

City University of Hong Kong Annual Report 2008 – 2009 President’s Report


Since its inception a quarter of a century ago, City University of Hong Kong (CityU) has continued to excel and improve by all major parameters. CityU has matured into a dynamic university distinguished by scholarship in research and professional education. The University is committed to nurturing and developing students’ talent and creating applicable knowledge to support social and economic advancement. It is now home to about 26,000 students benefiting from the expertise and hard work of more than 3,000 fulltime faculty and staff from diverse international backgrounds and ethnicities. This report chronicles a year in which the University once again outdid its previous excellent performance on many indicators. In it you will read of our success across a range of activities, from teaching to our physical transformation, from advanced research to the nascent School of Energy and Environment. By adhering to our values and striving for continued improvement I have the utmost faith that CityU’s silver anniversary year will be the runway from which we soar towards our golden future.

Anniversary milestone The 25th anniversary has presented an ideal opportunity to showcase University’s international standing and achievements, while also offering staff and students past and present the chance to revel in the moment and reflect upon the years gone by and look forward to the years to come. Among the highlight events organised during a fine year were the series of distinguished lectures by world-renowned scholars and a series of four academician conferences on a range of subjects, led by “Frontiers in Bioscience: Learning and Memory” that took place in June. The subsequent conferences would cover energy and environment, engineering innovation, science and technology, all topical issues affecting our local community, the region and the world in a very real way. With the anniversary as a thematic backdrop, CityU has proven its standing in the world by attracting Nobel Laureates, renowned academicians and world-class experts in their fields to help illustrate CityU’s visionary approach to matters of societal importance.

香港城市大學(城大)創立於25年前,四分之一世紀來進步不息,如今各方面均有優異表現。 城大成長壯大、充滿活力,已成為學術研究與專業教育並重而兼優的大學。城大致力於培育學生才能、創造實用知識,以促進社 會與經濟的發展。校內現有學生約二萬六千名;來自多國各族的全職教研人員與職工共三千餘人,各盡其才各司其職,為學生提 供優良的學習環境。 本報告記錄一年來城大的工作,回顧本校如何再上層樓,在各方面取得較既往更優異的成績。一年來,城大的成就涵蓋寬廣,既 見於教學提升、校園新貌,也表現在研究成果,更包括新近創立的能源及環境學院。 我深信,城大秉持其宗旨理念,不懈追求自我完善,建校25周年的銀禧誌慶活動,必將成為展翅飛向錦繡未來的新起點。

周年里程碑 建校25周年是個大好時機,使城大得以展示其國際地位及各方面成就,也令新舊師生及歷屆校友得以歡聚一堂,重溫往日時光, 展望母校未來。 一年來的紀念活動中,令人矚目者有一系列傑出學人講座,主講者均為全球知名專家;另有四場學術論壇,為首一場是今年6月間 舉行的「生物科學前沿:學習與記憶」。此後的數場學術論壇探討能源與環境、工程創新、科學與科技,均為與本港及亞太區乃至 全球各地息息相關的重大課題。城大以25周年紀念為舞台背景,有幸邀得諾貝爾獎得主、著名科學院院士等各領域世界級專家前 來演講,不僅彰顯本校的國際地位,且展示城大關注社會重大問題之宗旨。

City University of Hong Kong Annual Report 2008 – 2009 President’s Report


Striving for perfection Self-awareness is a vital ingredient in self-improvement. But it is also vital to periodically seek and receive feedback from those you respect in order to gain a fuller comprehension of your overall standing in society. With that in mind, the University conducted an internal quality audit assisted by a panel of experts from the UK and Australia. In preparation for the University Grants Committee’s academic quality audit scheduled in 2010, the panel made a number of useful observations and recommendations in their report, affirming at the same time that CityU “is a highly respected institution demonstrating successful outcomes.” Appropriately for such an energetic institution, the establishment of the School of Energy and Environment was approved by the Council of the University. This truly exciting endeavour is a first for Hong Kong. It will be one of the very few such schools in Asia, placing CityU at the forefront of two of the most pressing issues of our time. The School is committed to improving environmental quality and supporting sustainable development by specialising in professional education and cutting-edge research relating to energy sufficiency and security, climate change and air pollution.

Measures of success A dual focus on teaching and research and an excellent academic and research team has seen CityU steadily climb the rankings among the world’s best universities. The respected Times Higher Education Supplement 2008 survey places CityU at 147th in the world. As a measure of the University’s progress, it is significant that since breaking into the world’s top 200 five years ago (ranked 198th in 2004) it has continued to rise ever since.

止於至善 凡人求自我完善,必須自覺自省;但不時也須求教於賢能,就正於尊長,始能透徹了解自身的地位及表現。 有鑒於此,城大邀請來自英國和澳洲的專家小組做內部品質審核,目的是為2010年大學教育資助委員會的質素核證預作準備。專 家小組在審核報告中提出許多有益的意見及建議,同時也肯定城大「是一所成績顯著、聲譽優良的大學」。 在這努力上進的大學裏,校董會批准增設一所能源及環境學院,可謂適時合宜。新學院在本港屬於首創,在亞洲則是少數同類學 院之一,令城大在當代兩大亟待突破的科研領域位於前列。這所學院將致力於能源效益與安全、氣候變化、空氣污染方面的專業 教育及尖端研究,以期有助於改善環境,促進經濟可持續發展。

成功的標誌 城大以教學與科研並重為方針,高素質的教學及研究團隊攜手努力,令本校的評鑑排名穩步上升,現已躋身全球最佳學府之林。 據《泰晤士報高等教育特刊》2008年的調查,城大位於全球最佳學府第147名。該名次是城大進步的標誌;值得注意的是,城大在 2004年進入全球最佳二百學府之列(第198名),五年來排名步步上升。

Regionally, we ranked a commendable 18th among the hundreds of institutions graded in the 2009 Asian University Ranking published by Quacquarelli Symonds. CityU also ranked number one in Hong Kong for the quality of engineering research papers, according to a survey released by the Higher Education Evaluation and Accreditation Council of Taiwan in 2008. Our top ranking demonstrates our outstanding academic and research performance and reflects the University’s preeminent status in engineering. (The 2009 result will be reflected in next year’s report.) The University regards the rankings as just one among many barometers of performance but the constant improvement in the rankings does positively reflect the focus and achievements of CityU staff, students and graduates. It also demonstrates that the University is well-respected internationally for its research and professional education.

Getting organised In a bid to streamline operations and clarify lines of accountability and responsibility, the University initiated a review of several aspects of the university management structure. The report commissioned by the Audit Committee of the Council drew upon relevant parallels with several of the leading universities in the world and the resulting organisation structure will empower the faculty and leadership teams on all levels. The establishment of the Provost (commonly known as Vice-President for Academic Affairs) was made to oversee academic matters including faculty appointments, retention and promotion, which had been under different lines of management. The underlying reason for the change was to prepare CityU for the challenge of moving from a three-year to a four-year undergraduate curriculum.

據 Quacquarelli Symonds發表的2009年亞洲大學評鑑排名,城大在本區域數百所大學之中名列第18位。據台灣的財團法人高等教 育評鑑中心基金會2008年公佈的調查,城大的工程學研究論文水準在香港名列第一。此排名標誌城大教學及研究的水準,也突顯 城大工程學科的前列地位。(2009年的調查結果,將刊於明年的報告。) 此類評鑑排名,城大僅視為衡量自身表現的諸多標尺之一;然而排名的穩步上升,確實反映全校教研人員和歷屆學生的共同成 就。這也顯示城大在專業教育與研究兩大領域均已贏得國際聲譽。

精簡整編 為了精簡運作、明確問責關係及工作職責,城大對校內各層面管理架構作了一輪檢討。校董會審計委員會提交的報告書,借鑑若 干世界著名大學的相關經驗,而後建議採用的架構,將授權予各級領導層及教研人員,使眾人各知職守。 增設學務副校長一職,以統領與教學相關的事務,包括教研人員之任命、延任、晉升,而此類事務先前分別由多個部門分管。精 簡運作之最終目的,在於本科生課程結構即將由三年制轉為四年制,城大須預作準備以資應對。

City University of Hong Kong Annual Report 2008 – 2009 President’s Report


Four other vice presidential roles now bring a stronger sense of purpose to the management structure, namely the VicePresident for Development and External Relations, Vice-President for Student Affairs, Vice-President for Research and Technology and Chief Administration Officer. Looking further ahead, CityU’s 2010-15 Strategic Plan is a key element in our planning and development. It will position us as a leading global university in the 21st century. Six priority action areas have been identified by the Strategic Planning Core Group student learning and career development, research and technology transfer, faculty and staff recruitment, reward and retention, campus planning and development, globalisation as well as branding, image, and culture.

Golden future CityU has made great strides since its foundation in 1984. Together, we have established in a little over twenty years a substantial research profile and developed an international reputation in a number of important academic areas. Our educational role has extended across the entire spectrum of awards from PhD to undergraduate qualifications. We have embraced globalisation and forged significant and ever-increasing links with the mainland. More recently we have become synonymous with excellence in global professional education. These achievements will propel us further as we continue to explore and excel in niche areas that respond to and foresee future societal needs. Working together we can ensure that CityU continues to deliver on its promise to society to become a leading global university, excelling in research and professional education. On this silver jubilee, we can be confident about our golden future.

其餘四位副校長或副校長級管理人員,即副校長(發展及對外關係)、副校長(學生事務)、副校長(研究及科技)、行政總監,各司 其職而互相協作,將令管理層架構目標明確,處事得力。 城大2010-15年策略計劃,更是放眼未來的發展大計,將城大定位作21世紀領先群倫的世界級大學。策略計劃核心小組為城大制 訂了六大優先行動領域,即:(1)學生教育及事業發展;(2)研究與科技轉移;(3)教職員的招聘、獎勵及延任;(4)校園規劃與發 展;(5)全球化;(6)品牌、形象及校園文化。

錦繡未來 城大自1984年創立以來,進步巨大。同人攜手努力,令城大僅經歷短短二十餘年,即已擁有充實的研究實力,並在幾個重大教學 領域建立國際聲譽。城大的教學涵蓋各級學位課程,頒發的學歷證書,自各種本科文憑起,直到博士學位。城大歡迎全球化,與 中國內地建立的聯繫日益緊密,且近來更成為優質專業教育的世界級重鎮。這一切成就,激勵全校同人更上層樓,探索我們獨有 的特色領域並保持領先,面對社會需求的變動,宜洞察先機以善加應對。 城大同人並肩攜手,將令我校不負對社會的承諾,成為世界領先的學府,專業教育與研究並重而兼優。當此銀禧周年,我校同人 充滿信心,共迎錦繡未來。

The School of Energy and Environment will lead teaching and research tackling two of the most pressing issues of our time. 能源及環境學院將引領現今社會面對的兩大迫切議題的教研工作。

CityU set up the Department of Media and Communication in July 2008 to nurture a new generation of cross-media professionals. 城大於2008年7月成立媒體與傳播系,致力培育新一代跨媒體專業傳媒工作者。

Biomedical engineering-related programmes were also identified this year as disciplines the University needs to explore as part of its endeavour on advancement in higher education and research development. An expert committee conducted a three-day tour of CityU, providing advice on establishing biomedical engineering-related programmes to further enhance our academic niche. Impressed with the research capabilities of CityU in biomedical engineering-related fields, the committee concluded that a golden opportunity exists to establish relevant academic programmes. Their finding took into account the enormous development potential of the Greater China and Asian regions. Senior management will take this forward knowing it is essential to apply science and engineering to medicine in order to meet future healthcare challenges. The new Department of Media and Communication has brought an added dimension to the College of Humanities and Social Sciences. It offers a range of academic programmes that train students to be professional communicators with the ability to work not only in conventional media industries such as journalism, television and radio, advertising, public relations, and new media, but also in a new environment of media convergence and information integration.

此外,為進一步促進城大的教育及研究發展,大學於本年度探討開設生物醫學工程課程及從事相關研究的潛力,並特別安排一個 專家委員會訪問城大三天,就此提供意見,優化城大專業特色。 委員會讚揚城大在生物醫學工程若干相關領域的研究實力,認為當下是開設生物醫學工程課程的大好時機,並指出大中華區乃至 全亞洲蘊藏着極大發展前景。大學領導層將積極跟進,把科學工程應用於醫學,以迎接醫療健康的未來挑戰。 新成立的媒體與傳播系擴闊了人文及社會科學學院的領域,開設的多個學術課程旨在培養新一代專業傳意人才,既能勝任新聞、 電視、電台、廣告、公共關係及新媒體等傳統傳媒工作,亦能在新媒體整合及資訊融合領域發揮所長。

The figures do not include the enrolment number of programmes offered by the Community College of City University. 註: 修課式課程及研究學位課程的學生人數分別以2008年12月31日及2009年1月15日為準。香港城市大學專上學院的學生人數不包括在內。

Preparing for the new curriculum Tertiary education in Hong Kong will herald a milestone in 2012, as all local universities adopt the four-year normative curriculum. To gear up for this challenge, CityU is adjusting course content and strengthening support services for students. The University’s new curriculum will lay a foundation of broad-based knowledge for students, helping them enhance language proficiency, develop a global mindset and become professionals ready to meet the needs of society. The Senate approved the 16 new General Education courses for implementation from the start of the academic year 2009–10. One important objective of the new curriculum is to expose students to a more diverse range of experiences, rather than simply deepening the course content. To meet the challenges of an ever-changing world, students will equip themselves with useful skills such as language and communication skills and the ability to adopt new technologies. The Education Development Office organised ten workshops as part of the Strategic Teaching Enhancement Programme this year to help colleagues meet the challenges of the new four-year curriculum and familiarise themselves with Outcomes Based Teaching and Learning.

迎接新學制 香港高等教育將於2012年邁上新里程,屆時本港所有大學將推行四年本科學制。為迎接這一挑戰,城大正修訂科目內容,並加強 學生支援服務。城大的新課程內容將為學生奠定良好而廣泛的知識基礎,提升語文能力,培養國際意識,幫助他們成為社會所需 的專業人士。 大學教務會通過了2009–10學年起開設的16項新通識教育科目。本科四年新學制的一個重要目標是幫助學生接觸更多不同的新事 物,而不僅僅是加深科目內容。為了應付當今時代日新月異的各項挑戰,學生須具備語文及溝通等有用技巧,並善於應用新科 技。 教育發展處積極推廣「策略教學優化計劃」,舉辦了十個工作坊,協助教職員迎接四年學制新挑戰,進一步了解「成效為本教與 學」。

City University of Hong Kong Annual Report 2008 – 2009 Professional Education


To accommodate a larger student body, government funding was secured and site preparation work commenced on the new Academic and Administration Building. The Library has also been renovated to improve its functionality and the effectiveness of its space usage and to create a rich cultural ambience.

Quality programmes, teachers and students CityU has forged academic exchange programmes and partnerships with more than 300 institutions from across the world, as it retains its entrenched focus on globalised education. Among the key cooperative ventures during the year were the training programmes for Chinese judges. Thirty judges commenced their CityU Master of Laws (LLM) Programme under the tripartite arrangement by the School of Law of CityU, the National Judges College of the Supreme People’s Court of China and the School of Law of Columbia University in the US. Building on the success of the LLM programme, CityU and the National Judges College launched the Advanced Programme for Chinese Senior Judges, providing a systematic, bespoke legal programme for Chinese senior judges. Both programmes marked a milestone in local legal education and upheld the continued collaboration between CityU and prominent partners.

為容納伴隨新學制而來的更多學生,大學獲得政府撥款,並已開始教學行政大樓的地盤預備工程。此外,圖書館亦已重新整建, 以提升功能及有效使用空間,營造洋溢文化氣息的學習環境。

優質課程及師生 城大繼續致力於一貫堅持的全球化教育目標,與世界各地300多家院校簽訂了學術交流協議及合作計劃。 年內的重要合作項目之一是為中國在職法官舉辦培訓課程。三十位內地法官在城大攻讀由城大法律學院、中國最高人民法院所轄 國家法官學院及美國哥倫比亞大學法學院三方合辦的法學碩士課程。在法學碩士課程的成功基礎上,城大再與國家法官學院合 作,開設中國高級法官研修班,為他們度身訂造系統法律深造課程。這兩項課程不僅為香港法律教育奠立里程碑,亦是城大持續 與頂尖機構建立合作關係的範例。

Professor Edmund Choi Cheong-chuen (second from left), staff-in-charge of the Wind Tunnel Facility, explains the operation of the facility to Mrs Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor (second from right), Secretary for Development, and Mr Mak Chai-kwong (first from right), Permanent Secretary for Development (Works). 負責風洞設施的蔡昌全教授(左二)向發展局局長林鄭月娥女士(右二)及發展局常 任秘書長(工務)麥齊光先生(右一)解釋風洞設施運作。

A team of six international reviewers unanimously commended MERIT’s cutting-edge marine environmental research and management. They also praised its excellent integration of research in biology, chemistry and engineering, from genes and molecules to the entire ecosystem, as breathtaking and key to enabling a truly interdisciplinary approach to managing the environment. The wind tunnel facility officially opened during the year enhanced CityU’s research capabilities in wind engineering and research aimed at improving urban development planning and the environment in Hong Kong. The facility is equipped with automated, state-of-the-art technology that allows it to conduct a range of tests on buildings, bridges, urban ventilation and air pollution. It can help test whether a building could withstand extremely strong winds or whether there is adequate ventilation in built-up areas. CityU researchers have also been developing Zigbee technology and incorporating this internationally recognised wireless communication standard into energy-saving systems. The Zigbee Energy Management system senses and controls applications in lighting, air-conditioning and security systems and reminds and instructs users to minimise energy wastage. It is estimated that the system can reduce energy consumption by up to 30%. 由六位國際專家組成的評審小組一致稱讚中心的尖端海洋環境研究及管理,並讚揚中心能夠結合生物、化學及工程等學科,研究 範疇涵蓋基因、分子以至整個生態系統,真正採用了跨學科創新方法管理環境。 年內正式啟用的風洞設施,可提升城大的風力工程及研究能力,以改善香港的城市發展計劃及環境。有關設施配備自動化先進科 技,可為建築物、橋樑、市區通風及空氣污染進行一系列測試,包括測試建築物能否抵受極猛烈的強風或其建築環境的通風是否 足夠。 此外,城大研究人員一直在研究Zigbee科技,並將這項國際認可的無線通訊標準與能源節省系統相結合。Zigbee能源管理系統可 感應及控制照明、空調及保安系統的應用程式,提醒及指示用戶減少浪費能源。預計系統可為用戶節省高達30%的能源。

Technology Further consolidating CityU’s strategy of positioning Shenzhen as the base of its research, incubation and teaching activities on the mainland, its State Key Laboratory of Millimetre Waves located in the Shenzhen Virtual University Park was unveiled during the year. The laboratory can continue to contribute to the nation’s and Shenzhen’s research on millimetre wave technology and communication technology. The Centre for Prognostics and System Health Management, the sixth university research centre, was established to address the growing interest in prognostics and health management implementation on the part of a large number of companies in mainland China, particularly electronics companies in the greater Guangdong area. The centre will first focus on the process of predicting the future reliability of a product by assessing the extent of deviation or degradation of a product from its expected normal operating conditions. CityU has continued its work on video coding compression technology and its research achievements have been adopted by recognised standard-bearers in the industry. CityU is now at the forefront of the industry and on the verge of creating a new standard to be used around the world.

科技 為進一步加強城大以深圳為內地研究、孕育及教學活動基地的策略,位於深圳虛擬大學園的毫米波國家重點實驗室於年內舉行揭 牌儀式。實驗室將為國家及深圳對毫米波科技及通訊科技的研究,繼續作貢獻。 鑑於內地大量企業,尤其是廣東地區的電子企業,對產品故障預測及系統管理的興趣日漸濃厚,城大特別成立了第六所校級研究 中心「故障預測與系統健康管理研究中心」。中心的首要工作是評核產品偏離原訂正常運作情況的程度或退化程度,以預測產品未 來的可靠程度。 城大繼續努力研究視像編碼壓縮技術,其研究成果早已獲業界認可標準機構採用。城大目前處於業界領先地位,並即將完成研製 可供全球採用的新標準。城大獲得政府撥款,於年內與本地三家大學、香港應用科技研究院有限公司、其他政府部門及業界進行 合作,共同研製第五代視像編碼技術。

The Opening of the State Key Laboratory of Millimetre Waves further consolidates CityU’s strategy of positioning Shenzhen as the base of its research, incubation and teaching activities on the mainland. 於深圳虛擬大學園設立毫米波國家重點實驗室進一步加強城大以深圳為內地研 究、孕育及教學活動基地的策略。

Business The University continues to conduct surveys that reflect the economic and social well-being of Hong Kong. The CityU–Hong Kong Consumer Satisfaction Index, an annual survey conducted since 1997, continues to provide valuable information about the quality of the commodities and services rendered by various industry sectors. A separate quarterly survey conducted in collaboration with universities in mainland China, Macau and Taiwan revealing cross-straits consumer confidence was also launched during the year to reflect the overall social and economic situation in the four places. The Employee Confidence, Industrial Relations and Employee Commitment Survey, which can help employers devise human resources policies, recorded a decrease after three consecutive annual rises. The 2007–08 Hong Kong Sustainable Development Index Survey aims to provide a clear picture of where improvement is needed in the pursuit of a sustainable quality of life. It revealed that environmental protection ranked alongside the education system as Hong Kong’s top sustainable development priority.

Membership as at 30 June 2009. 校董會成員以2009年6月30日為準。

One of the major changes to the Council this year was the appointment of the new Council Chairman, the Honourable Leung Chun-ying, who took up the position on 22 October 2008 on the retirement of the former Chairman Mr Chung Shui-ming. The new Chairman brings considerable experience to the University, having served as the Chairman of the Lingnan University Council for nine years. The new Chairman has identified four primary challenges for the Council in the immediate future, namely the conversion of the undergraduate curriculum from three to four years, the treatment of Outside Practice undertaken by faculty and staff of the University, the need for an effective system to attract, reward and retain high caliber faculty and staff to support learning and research and the future of the Community College of City University. In particular the Chairman has instituted a review of the policy and regulations for Outside Practice and the arrangements for administering these activities which can best support the mission of transferring knowledge to relevant sectors of the economy. 過往一年,校董會的主要轉變之一,是梁振英先生於2008年10月22日接替前任主席鍾瑞明先生的職務,出任校董會主席。曾擔任 嶺南大學校董會主席長達九年的梁主席,為城大帶來寶貴的經驗。 梁主席確認了校董會短期內要面對的四項主要挑戰,包括本科學制由三年轉為四年制;教職員從事校外工作的處理;有效招聘、 獎勵和延聘優質教職員以支援教學和研究工作;以及香港城市大學專上學院的未來發展。其中,主席致力檢討校外工作的政策和 規例,以及相關的行政事宜,使大學能有效地向各個經濟界別履行知識轉移的使命。

Council Members 校董會成員 “I am happy to have served on the Council of CityU for a number of years and was able to witness the tremendous growth and progress made by this young and vibrant institution. This year we saw that it is firmly established among the world’s top 150 universities. Its steady rise in ranking in the global arena is testament to its excellence in academic and research endeavours. I am proud to be associated with this university which is growing from strength to strength.” 「很高興能為城大校董會服務多年,見證這所年輕、充滿活力的學府躍進成長,今年 更於世界最佳大學首150名中穩佔一席。城大國際排名不斷攀升,足證其學術與研究 水平卓越。能夠成為這所不斷進步的大學的一份子,我引以為榮。」

”CityU has grown fast in the past 25 years. As the undergraduate curriculum in all local universities will be transformed to a four-year structure, the facilities at the University will near saturation point. To cater for our development needs and to promote professional education, CityU is putting forward a number of campus construction projects to ensure it is physically well-prepared for the transition. As a CityU alumnus and senior construction professional, I’m honoured to be able to serve the alma mater at this critical juncture and have the opportunity to contribute to Hong Kong.” 「城大在過去25年高速發展,再加上香港的大學教育即將全面改為四年制,現時的 校舍設施很快將會飽和。為了配合未來的發展和全面推動專業教育,城大將會推動 多項重要的校園建設,及早做好硬件的準備。身為城大校友和香港資深建設專業人 士,很榮幸能夠在此重要時刻為母校服務,亦很高興有機會回饋香港。」

“Envy. That’s what I have seen from the eyes of Presidents of Students’ Unions from Taiwan universities. I shared my experience in the Council at a conference with Students’ Union representatives from mainland China and Taiwan universities. They can’t believe that students in Hong Kong can have such a high degree of independence and power in university management. I am honoured to have been delegated with this exceptional responsibility. I have to say I am lucky, not because I have the power as a Council Member (something that mainland Chinese and Taiwanese students don’t have), but because our university does treasure students’ opinions. I sincerely believe this is the reason for strengthening our students’ culture of self-consciousness and willingness to contribute. I am glad I could serve our University and I am excited by the fact that it is a young and ambitious university. We still have a lot to do and a lot to change. I look forward to witnessing even greater success in the future.” 「羨慕。這是台灣一些大學學生會會長的眼神。在一個會議上,我向來自中國內地和台灣的學生會代表分享我在校董 會的經驗。他們不相信香港的學生可以在大學管理上有如此高度自主的權力。對於能肩負此特別責任,我感到很榮 幸。我自覺很幸運,不是因為擁有校董會成員的權力(這是中國內地和台灣學生所沒有的),而是大學的確珍視學生 意見。我真心相信這是形成我們具備自覺意識、願意作出貢獻的學生文化的原因。很高興能為大學服務,更興奮的 是這是一所年輕而有雄心壯志的大學。我們要做、要改變的還有很多,我期待在將來看到城大取得更輝煌的成就。」

”The postgraduate work of the University is vital to the successful development of both the University and its students and I was given the privilege to serve on the Council. One of my job duties is to bring to the University’s attention the special needs of the postgraduate body. In this fast changing world it is essential that practitioners in the professions keep abreast of the latest developments in their disciplines and the University’s stance and policy in providing adequate support in postgraduate studies is of equal importance. Being a Council member, I understand through my role that the University has indeed given a lot of support and resources into developing the University into one of the best in the region and I am proud to be one of the postgraduate students in the CityU family.”

「城大的研究生教育工作對大學及學生的發展均極為重要,我很榮幸有機會為校董會服務。我的主要工作之一,是向 大學反映研究生的特別需要。在這瞬息萬變的世界中,各個專業領域的從業員均須掌握業內的最新發展,而城大為研 究生教育提供充足支援的立場和政策,同樣不可或缺。身為校董會成員,我完全明白到城大確實為把大學辦成區內最 佳學府之一而投放許多資源。同時,能夠成為城大研究生的一員,我深感自豪。」

本核數師(以下簡稱「我們」)已審核列載於第69至 125頁香港城市大學(大學)的財務報表,此財務報 表包括於2009年6月30日的綜合及大學資產負債 表與截至該日止年度的綜合及大學收支表、綜合 及大學基金結餘轉變報表和綜合及大學現金流量 表,以及主要會計政策概要及其他附註解釋。

University’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

大學就財務報表須承擔的責任 大學須負責根據香港會計師公會頒佈的香港財務 報告準則編製及真實而公平地列報該等財務報 表。這責任包括設計、實施及維護與編製及真實 而公平地列報財務報表相關的內部控制,以使財 務報表不存在由於欺詐或錯誤而導致的重大錯誤 陳述;選擇和應用適當的會計政策;及按情況作 出合理的會計估計。

Auditor’s Responsibility

核數師的責任 我們的責任是根據我們的審核對該等財務報表發 表意見。我們是按照《香港城市大學條例》第20條 的規定,僅向大學作出報告。除此以外,我們的 報告書不可用作其他用途。我們概不就本報告書 的內容,對任何其他人士負責或承擔法律責任。

We conducted our audit in accordance with Hong Kong Standards on Auditing issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance as to whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

我們已根據香港會計師公會頒佈的香港審計準則 進行審核。這些準則要求我們遵守道德規範,並 規劃及執行審核,以合理確定此等財務報表是否 不存有任何重大錯誤陳述。

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and true and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the University, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

審核涉及執行程序以獲取有關財務報表所載金額 及披露資料的審核憑證。所選定的程序取決於核 數師的判斷,包括評估由於欺詐或錯誤而導致財 務報表存有重大錯誤陳述的風險。在評估該等風 險時,核數師考慮與大學編製及真實而公平地列 報財務報表相關的內部控制,以設計適當的審核 程序,但並非為對大學的內部控制的效能發表意 見。審核亦包括評價大學所採用的會計政策的合 適性及所作出的會計估計的合理性,以及評價財 務報表的整體列報方式。

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

我們相信,我們所獲得的審核憑證是充足和適當 地為我們的審核意見提供基礎。

Opinion

In our opinion, the financial statements give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Group and the University as at 30 June 2009 and of their deficits and cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards.

意見 我們認為,該等財務報表已根據香港財務報告準 則真實而公平地反映大學整體及大學於2009年 6月30日的財政狀況及截至該日止年度的虧損及現 金流量。

Significant Accounting Policies

1

(a)

Statement of Compliance

(a)

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with all applicable Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards (HKFRSs), which collective term includes all applicable individual Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards, Hong Kong Accounting Standards (HKASs) and Interpretations issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (HKICPA) and accounting principles generally accepted in Hong Kong. A summary of the significant accounting policies adopted by the University and its subsidiaries (collectively the Group) is set out below.

合規聲明 本財務報表是按照香港會計師公會頒佈的所 有適用的《香港財務報告準則》 ( 香港財務報 告準則),包括所有適用的個別香港財務報 告準則,《香港會計準則》 (香港會計準則)及 《詮釋》及香港公認會計原則的規定編製。以 下是大學及其附屬公司(合稱大學整體)採用 的主要會計政策概要。

The HKICPA has issued the following new Interpretations and an amendment to HKFRSs that are first effective for the current accounting period of the Group.

香港會計師公會已頒佈下列於本會計期間初 次生效及可供提早採納的新訂詮釋及經修訂 的香港財務報告準則。

Amendments to HKAS 39, Financial Instruments: Recognition and measurement, and HKFRS 7, Financial instruments: Disclosures – Reclassification of financial assets

「金融工 《香港會計準則》第39號的修訂 具:確認及計算」及《香港財務報告準 則》第7號(修訂) 「金融工具:披露-金 融資產的分類」。

HK(IFRIC) 14, HKAS 19 – The Limit on a Defined Benefit Asset, Minimum Funding Requirements and their Interaction

HK(IFRIC)詮釋第14號,《香港會計準 「關於界定福利資產的限 則 》第 19 號 額、最低資本規定及相互之間的關 係」。

These HKFRSs developments have had no material impact to the Group’s and the University’s financial statements for the current and prior accounting periods as they were consistent with accounting policies already adopted by the Group and the University.

由於該等香港財務報告準則的發展,與大學 整體及大學一貫採用的會計政策一致,因此 它們沒有對大學整體及大學本期及過往會計 期間的財務報表構成重大影響。

The Group has not applied any new standard or interpretation that is not yet effective for the current accounting period (see note 32).

大學整體並沒有提早採納任何於本會計期間 尚未生效的新會計準則或詮釋(見附註32)。

(b) Basis of Preparation of the Financial Statements The measurement basis used in the preparation of the financial statements is the historical cost basis except as otherwise stated in the accounting policies below. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with HKFRSs requires the Group and the University to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgements about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates. 78

主要會計政策

City University of Hong Kong Annual Report 2008 – 2009 Financial Statements

(b)

財務報表的編製基準 除下文所述的會計政策外,本財務報表是以 歷史成本作為編製基準。

大學整體及大學須在編製符合香港財務報告 準則的財務報表時作出對會計政策應用,以 及資產、負債、收入和支出的報告數額構成 影響的判斷、估計和假設。這些估計和相關 假設是根據以往經驗和因應當時情況下被認 為合理的多項其他因素作出的,其結果構成 了某些在無法依循其他途徑即時得知資產與 負債的帳面值時所作出判斷的基礎。實際結 果可能有別於估計數額。

Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

主要會計政策(續)

(b)

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

財務報表的編製基準(續) 這些估計和相關假設會持續進行檢討。如果 會計估計的修訂僅影響某一期間,其影響便 會在該期間內確認;如果修訂對當前和未來 期間均有影響,則在作出修訂的期間和未來 期間予以確認。

Judgements made by management in the application of HKFRSs that have significant effect on the financial statements and estimates are discussed in note 30.

管理層在運用香港財務報告準則時,對財務 報表及估計有重大影響所作出的判斷於附註 30內討論。

(b) Basis of Preparation of the Financial Statements (continued)

(c)

Basis of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements incorporate financial statements of the Group made up to the balance sheet date; and include the Group’s interest in associates on the basis set out in note 1(e) below. The results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the Consolidated Income and Expenditure Statement from the date of their acquisition or to the date of disposal, as appropriate. All significant transactions and balances between the University and its subsidiaries are eliminated on consolidation.

(c)

綜合基準 綜合財務報表包括大學整體截至結算日的財 務報表,附註第1(e)項所提及的大學整體應 佔聯營公司的權益亦已計算在內。本年度購 入或出售之附屬公司的業績,以收購日起或 至出售日止,已計入綜合收支表。大學與附 屬公司之間所有重大交易及結餘均在編製綜 合財務報表時對銷。

Minority interests at the balance sheet date, being the portion of the net assets of subsidiaries attributable to equity interests that are not owned by the University, whether directly or indirectly through subsidiaries, are presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheet and Statement of Changes in Fund Balances, separately from fund balances of the Group. Minority interests in the results of the Group for the year are presented in the Consolidated Income and Expenditure Statement as an allocation of the surplus or deficit for the year between minority interests and different sources of University’s funds.

於結算日的少數股東權益是指並非由大學透 過附屬公司直接或間接擁有的股權所佔附屬 公司資產淨值的部分;這些權益在綜合資產 負債表內及綜合基金結餘轉變報表中,是與 大學整體的基金結餘分開列示。少數股東所 佔大學整體本年度業績的權益在綜合收支表 內以少數股東權益及不同的大學基金來源分 配本年度盈餘或虧損方式列示。

Where losses applicable to the minority shareholders exceed the minority interests in the net assets of a subsidiary, the excess, and any further losses applicable to the minority shareholders, are charged against the Group’s interest except to the extent that the minority shareholders have a binding obligation to, and is able to, make good the losses. All subsequent profits of the subsidiary are allocated to the Group until the minority shareholders’ share of losses previously absorbed by the Group has been recovered.

如果少數股東應佔的虧損超過其所佔附屬公 司資產淨值的權益,超額部分和任何歸屬於 少數股東的進一步虧損便會沖減大學整體所 佔權益;但如少數股東須承擔具有約束力的 義務並有能力彌補虧損則除外。附屬公司的 所有其後盈餘均會分配予大學整體,直至大 學整體收回以往承擔的少數股東應佔虧損為 止。

Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

(d) Subsidiaries

1

主要會計政策(續)

(d)

附屬公司 附屬公司是指大學直接或間接控制的公司。 當大學有權直接或間接支配附屬公司的財務 及經營政策,並藉此從其活動中取得利益, 控制權即存在。現時可行使的潛在投票權為 評估控制權的考慮因素。大學整體於附屬公 司的投資自控制權開始日期起至結束日期為 止,均在綜合財務報表中綜合計算。對附屬 公司的投資是按成本減去減值虧損後在大學 的資產負債表中列示(見附註1(j))。

(e)

聯營公司 聯營公司是指大學整體或大學可以對其發揮 重大影響力,但不是控制或聯合控制其管理 層的實體;所謂發揮重大影響力包括參與其 財務及經營決策。

A subsidiary is an entity controlled, directly or indirectly, by the University. Control exists when the University has the power, directly or indirectly, to govern their financial and operating policies, so as to obtain benefits from their activities. In assessing control, potential voting rights that presently are exercisable are taken into account. Subsidiaries are consolidated into the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. In the University’s Balance Sheet, an investment in a subsidiary is stated at cost less impairment losses (see note 1(j)).

(e)

Associates An associate is an entity in which the Group or the University has significant influence, but not control or joint control, over its management, including participation in the financial and operating policy decisions.

An investment in an associate is accounted for in the Consolidated Financial Statements under the equity method and is initially recorded at cost and adjusted thereafter for the post acquisition change in the Group’s share of the associate’s net assets. The Consolidated Income and Expenditure Statement reflects the Group’s share of the post-acquisition post-tax results of the associates for the year, including any impairment loss on goodwill relating to the investment in associates recognised for the year (see note 1(j)).

於聯營公司的投資是按權益法記入綜合財務 報表,並且先以成本入帳,然後就大學整體 佔該聯營公司淨資產在收購後的變動作出調 整。綜合收支表反映出大學整體所佔聯營公 司於收購後的年內除稅後業績,包括在本年 度確認關於對聯營公司的投資的商譽的減值 虧損(見附註1(j))。

When the Group’s share of losses exceeds its interest in the associate, the Group’s interest is reduced to nil and recognition of further losses is discontinued except to the extent that the Group has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate. For this purpose, the Group’s interest in the associate is the carrying amount of the investment under the equity method together with the Group’s long-term interests that in substance form part of the Group’s net investment in the associate.

當大學整體對聯營公司承擔的虧損額超過其 所佔的權益時,大學整體所佔的權益便會減 少至零,並且不再確認額外虧損;但如大學 整體須履行法定或推定義務,或代聯營公司 作出付款則除外。就此而言,大學整體在聯 營公司所佔的權益是以按照權益法計算投資 的帳面金額,以及實質上構成大學整體在聯 營公司投資淨額一部分的長期權益為準。

Unrealised profits and losses resulting from transactions between the Group and its associates are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest in associates except where unrealised losses provide evidence of an impairment of the assets transferred, in which case they are recognised immediately in the Consolidated Income and Expenditure Statement.

大學整體與聯營公司之間交易所產生的未實 現損益,均按大學整體於聯營公司所佔的權 益比率抵銷;但假如未實現虧損顯示已轉讓 資產出現減值,則這些未實現虧損會即時在 綜合收支表內確認。

證券投資 除可使用估值技巧更可靠地估計其公平價值 外(其變數只包括來自可觀察市場的數據), 債務及股份證券投資(於附屬公司及聯營公 司的投資除外)初始乃按成本,即其交易價 格列帳。除下文所載另有所指外,成本包括 應佔交易成本。其後此等投資項目視乎類別 而定,按以下方式列帳:

Investments in debt and equity securities (other than investments in subsidiaries and associates) are initially stated at cost, which is their transaction price unless fair value can be more reliably estimated using valuation techniques whose variables include only data from observable markets. Cost includes attributable transaction costs, except where indicated below. These investments are subsequenty accounted for as follows, depending on their classification: (i)

Investments in securities held for trading are classified as current assets. Any attributable transaction costs are recognised in the Income and Expenditure Statement as incurred. At each balance sheet date, the fair value is remeasured, with any resultant gain or loss being recognised in the Income and Expenditure Statement.

(i)

持作交易證券的投資劃歸為流動資 產。任何歸屬交易成本於產生期間在 收支表中確認。在每個結算日公允價 值將被重新計量,由此產生的任何收 益或虧損均在收支表中確認。

(ii)

Dated debt securities that the Group has the positive ability and intention to hold to maturity are classified as held-tomaturity securities. Held-to-maturity securities are stated in the Balance Sheet at amortised cost less impairment losses (see note 1(j)).

(ii)

大學整體有明確的能力和意願持至到 期的有期債務證券,劃歸為「持至到期 證券」。持至到期證券是以已攤銷成本 減去減值虧損後在資產負債表列示(見 附註1(j))。

(iii)

Investments in equity securities that do not have a quoted market price in an active market and which fair value cannot be reliably measured are recognised in the Balance Sheet at cost less impairment losses (see note 1(j)).

(iii)

當股份證券投資無法在活躍市場取得 報價,而且不能可靠地計量公允價值 時,這些投資便會以成本減去減值虧 損後在資產負債表列示(見附註1(j))。

(iv)

Other investments in securities are classified as availablefor-sale securities. At each balance sheet date, the fair value is remeasured, with any resultant gain or loss being recognised directly in Other Funds, except for impairment losses (see note 1(j)) and, in the case of monetary items such as debt securities, foreign exchange gains and losses which are recognised directly in the Income and Expenditure Statement. Where these investments are interest-bearing, interest calculated using the effective interest method is recognised in the Income and Expenditure Statement. When these investments are derecognised, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised directly in Other Funds is recognised in the Income and Expenditure Statement.

(iv)

其他證券投資劃歸為可供出售證券。 公允價值會在每個結算日被重新計 量,由此產生的任何收益或虧損均直 接在其他基金內確認;但減值虧損(見 附註1(j))和匯兌收益與虧損(如屬債務 證券等貨幣項目)則直接在收支表中確 認。如為帶息投資,以實際利率法計 算的利息會在收支表中確認。終止確 認這些投資時,以往直接在其他基金 內確認的累計收益或虧損會在收支表 中確認。

Investments are recognised/derecognised on the date the Group commits to purchasing/selling the investments, or the investments expire.

大學整體會在承諾購入╱出售投資或投資到 期當日確認╱終止確認有關的投資。

The cost of self-constructed items of property, plant and equipment includes the cost of materials, direct labour, the initial estimate, where relevant, of the costs of dismantling and removing the items and restoring the site on which they are located. The cost of other items of plant and equipment comprises its purchase price and any directly attributable costs of bringing the asset to its working condition and location for its intended use.

自建校舍、機器及設備項目的成本包括物 料,直接工人的成本,初次估計有關清拆、 移走該項目及還原其所在地點的成本。其他 機器及設備項目的成本包括其購買價及任何 直接歸屬費用使該資產按其既定用途達至可 使用狀況及地點。

The fair values of donations relating to property, plant and equipment at the time of receipt are deemed as the costs of the related assets.

捐贈的校舍、機器及設備以收取時的公允價 值作為有關資產的成本。

Subsequent expenditure relating to property, plant and equipment that has already been recognised and put into operation is added to the carrying amount of the asset when it is probable that future economic benefits, in excess of the originally assessed standard of performance of the existing asset, will flow to the Group. All other subsequent expenditure, such as repairs and maintenance, is recognised as an expense in the period in which it is incurred.

當校舍、機器及設備已投入使用後,如有關 的其後支出能使該資產為大學整體帶入未來 的經濟效益,該等支出便會計入資產的新增 帳面金額。所有其他其後支出,如維修及保 養,則在產生的期間確認為支出。

Gains or losses arising from the retirement or disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment are determined as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the item and are recognised in the Income and Expenditure Statement on the date of retirement or disposal.

報廢或出售其中一項校舍、機器及設備所產 生之收益或虧損以出售所得淨額與資產帳面 值之間之差額釐定,並於報廢或出售當日在 收支表內確認。

Leased Assets

(i)

租賃資產 大學整體確定協議具有在協定期限內通過支 付一筆或一連串款項而使用某一特定資產或 多項資產之權利,則該協議(由一宗交易或 一連串交易組成)為租賃或包括租賃。該釐 定乃根據安排之內容評估而作出,而無論安 排是否具備租賃之法律形式。

An arrangement comprising a transaction or a series of transactions is or contains a lease if the Group determines that the arrangement conveys a right to use a specific asset or assets for an agreed period of time in return for a payment or a series of payments. Such a determination is made based on an evaluation of the substance of the arrangement and is regardless of whether the arrangement takes the legal form of a lease. (i)

Classification of leased assets Assets that are held by the Group under leases which transfer to the Group substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as being held under finance leases. Leases which do not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the Group are classified as operating leases.

(i)

租賃資產的分類 對於大學整體以租賃持有的資產,如 租賃使所有權的絕大部分風險和回報 轉移至大學整體,有關的資產會分類 為以融資租賃持有;如租賃不會使所 有權的絕大部分風險和回報轉移至大 學整體,則分類為經營租賃。

(ii)

Assets held for use in operating leases Where the Group leases out assets under operating leases, the assets are included in the Balance Sheet according to their nature and, where applicable, are depreciated in accordance with the Group’s depreciation policy, as set out in note 1(g). Impairment losses are accounted for in accordance with the accounting policy as set out in note 1(j). Revenue arising from operating leases is recognised in accordance with the Group’s revenue recognition policy, as set out in note 1(p).

(ii)

用作經營租賃的資產 如屬大學整體以經營租賃出租資產的 情況,則有關的資產會按性質列入資 產負債表,並在適當的情況下,按附 註1(g)所載大學整體的折舊政策計算折 舊。減值虧損按照附註1(j)所述的會計 政策入帳。經營租賃所產生的收入則 根據附註1(p)所載大學整體確認收入的 政策確認。

(iii)

經營租賃費用 如屬大學整體透過經營租賃使用資產 的情況,除有另一可選的基準更能代 表源自租賃使用該資產的利益的模式 外,則根據租賃作出的付款會在租賃 期所涵蓋的會計期間內,以等額在收 支表列支。經營租賃協議所涉及的激 勵措施均在收支表中確認為租賃淨付 款總額的組成部分。不能確定的租金 在發生時的會計期間內的收支表中列 支。

(iii) Operating lease charges Where the Group has the use of assets under operating leases, payments made under the leases are charged to the Income and Expenditure Statement in equal instalments over the accounting periods covered by the lease term, except where an alternative basis is more representative of the pattern of benefits to be derived from the leased assets. Lease incentives received are recognised in the Income and Expenditure Statement as an integral part of the aggregate net lease payments made. Contingent rentals are charged to the Income and Expenditure Statement in the accounting period in which they are incurred.

(i)

86

Impairment of investments in debt and equity securities and other receivables Investments in debt and equity securities and other current and non-current receivables that are stated at cost or amortised cost or are classified as available-for-sale securities are reviewed at each balance sheet date to determine whether there is objective evidence of impairment. Objective evidence of impairment includes observable data that comes to the attention of the Group about one or more of the following loss events: –

significant financial difficulty of the debtor;

負債人的重大財政困難;

a breach of contract, such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal payments;

違返合約,例如不履行或拖欠還 本付息;

it becoming probable that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or other financial re-organisation;

負債人很有可能破產或進行其他 債務重組;

significant changes in the technological, market, economic or legal environment, that have an adverse effect on the debtor; and

技術、市場、經濟或法律環境出 現重大變動而對負債人產生負面 影響;

a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of an investment in an equity instrument below its cost.

股份投資工具的公允價值顯著或 長期下跌至低於其成本。

If any such evidence exists, any impairment loss is determined and recognised as follows:

如有任何這類憑證存在,便會釐定減 值虧損並按以下方式確認:

For unquoted equity securities carried at cost, the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the carrying amount of the financial asset and the estimated future cash flows, discounted at the current market rate of return for a similar financial asset where the effect of discounting is material. Impairment losses for equity securities are not reversed.

就以成本列帳的無報價股份證券而 言,減值虧損是以金融資產的帳面金 額與以同類金融資產的當時市場回報 率折現(如果折現會造成重大的影響) 的預計未來現金流量之間的差額計 量。股份證券的減值虧損不可撥回。

For accounts receivable and other financial assets carried at amortised cost, the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate (i.e. the effective interest rate computed at initial recognition of these assets).

就以攤銷成本列帳的應收帳款及其他 金融資產而言,減值虧損是以資產的 帳面金額與以其原有的實際利率(即在 初始確認有關資產時計算的實際利率) 所折現的預計未來現金流量現值之間 的差額計量。

(i)

(ii)

Impairment of investments in debt and equity securities and other receivables (continued) If in a subsequent period the amount of an impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be linked objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised, the impairment loss is reversed through the Income and Expenditure Statement. A reversal of an impairment loss shall not result in the asset’s carrying amount exceeding that which would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised in prior years. For available-for-sale securities, the cumulative loss that had been recognised directly in the Other Funds is removed from the Other Funds and is recognised in the Income and Expenditure Statement. The amount of the cumulative loss that is recognised in the Income and Expenditure Statement is the difference between the acquisition cost (net of any principal repayment and amortisation) and current fair value, less any impairment loss on that asset previously recognised in the Income and Expenditure Statement.

就可供出售證券而言,已直接在其他 基金中確認的累計虧損會從其他基金 中轉出,並在收支表中確認。在收支 表中確認的累計虧損是以購買成本(扣 除任何本金償還和攤銷額)與當時公允 價值之間的差額,並減去以往就該資 產在收支表中確認的任何減值虧損後 計算。

Impairment losses recognised in the Income and Expenditure Statement in respect of available-for-sale equity securities are not reversed through the Income and Expenditure Statement. Any subsequent increase in the fair value of such assets is recognised directly in the Other Funds.

可供出售股份證券已在收支表中確認 的減值虧損不會通過收支表撥回。這 些資產公允價值其後的任何增額會在 其他基金內直接確認。

Impairment losses in respect of available-for-sale debt securities are reversed if the subsequent increase in fair value can be objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised. Reversals of impairment losses in such circumstances are recognised in the Income and Expenditure Statement.

若其後公允價值增加可被客觀地認為 與確認該減值虧損後所發生的事件有 關,則會撥回可供出售債務證券之減 值虧損。該等情況下撥回之減值虧損 會於收支表內確認。

Impairment of other assets Internal and external sources of information are reviewed at each balance sheet date to identify indications that the following assets may be impaired or an impairment loss previously recognised no longer exists or may have decreased: – – –

property, plant and equipment; intangible assets; and investments in subsidiaries and associates

If any such indication exists, the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated.

其他資產的減值 在每個結算日,內部和外來的訊息會 被參考,以確定下列資產是否出現減 值跡象,或是以往確認的減值虧損不 再存在或已經減少:

校舍、機器及設備; 無形資產;及 附屬公司及聯營公司的投資

如果出現減值跡象,便會估計該資產 的可收回數額。

資產減值(續) (ii) 其他資產的減值(續) 資產的可收回數額是其淨出售價值與 使用價值兩者中的較高額。在評估使 用價值時,預計未來現金流量會按照 能反映當時市場對貨幣時間值和資產 特定風險的評估的稅前折現率,折現 至其現值。如果資產所產生的現金流 入基本上並非獨立於其他資產所產生 的現金流入,則以能產生獨立現金流 入的最小資產類別(即現金產生單元) 來釐定可收回數額。

(ii)

(k)

Impairment of other assets (continued) The recoverable amount of an asset is the greater of its net selling price and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Where an asset does not generate cash inflows largely independent of those from other assets, the recoverable amount is determined for the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows independently (i.e. a cash-generating unit). An impairment loss is recognised in the Income and Expenditure Statement whenever the carrying amount of an asset, or the cash-generating unit to which it belongs, exceeds its recoverable amount.

當資產的帳面金額或其屬於的現金產 生單元高於其可收回數額時,便會在 收支表中確認減值虧損為開支。

An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a favourable change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. A reversal of an impairment loss is limited to the asset’s carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised in prior years. Reversals of impairment losses are credited to the Income and Expenditure Statement in the year in which the reversals are recognised.

如果用以釐定可收回數額的估計出現 有利的變化,有關的減值虧損便會撥 回。減值虧損的撥回不應使資產的帳 面金額超過其在以往年度沒有確認任 何減值虧損而應釐定的數額。所撥回 的減值虧損在確認轉回的年度內計入 收支表中。

Accounts receivable are initially recognised at fair value and thereafter stated at amortised cost less impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts (see note 1(j)), except where the receivables are interest-free loans made to related parties without any fixed repayment terms or the effect of discounting would be immaterial. In such cases, the receivables are stated at cost less impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts (see note 1(j)).

(l)

Interest-bearing Borrowings Interest bearing borrowings are recognised initially at fair value less attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, interest-bearing borrowings are stated at amortised cost with any difference between cost and redemption value being recognised in the Income and Expenditure Statement over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.

(o) Provisions and Contingent Liabilities Provisions are recognised for liabilities of uncertain timing or amount when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation arising as a result of a past event, when it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made. Where the time value of money is material, provision are stated at the present value of the expenditure expected to settle the obligation. Where it is not probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required, or the amount cannot be estimated reliably, the obligation is disclosed as a contingent liability, unless the probability of outflow of economic benefits is remote. Possible obligations, which existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more future events, are also disclosed as contingent liabilities unless the probability of outflow of economic benefits is remote.

Government subventions Government grants are recognised in the Balance Sheet initially as deferred income when there is reasonable assurance that they will be received and that the Group will comply with the conditions attaching to them. Grants with specific purposes are recognised as revenue in the Income and Expenditure Statement on a systematic basis in the same periods in which the expenses are incurred. Grants without a specific purpose attached are recognised as revenue on an accrual basis.

(a)

The University has granted an unsecured and interest-free loan to a subsidiary as its working capital for the provision of self-financing associate degree programmes. The loan is repayable in 10 equal annual instalments commencing from July 2004.

(a)

大學提供一項無抵押及免息貸款予其 一間附屬公司用作自資開辦副學士 學位課程之營運資金。此筆貸款須在 2004年7月起以10年平均分期攤還。

(b)

The loan to an investee company includes a balance of $1,000,000, which bears interest at the Best Lending rate quoted by The Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation Limited.

(b)

借予被投資公司的款項包含100萬元須 按香港上海匯豐銀行有限公司的最優 惠利率計算利息。

Management considered that the recoverability of the balance remain uncertain due to limited financial information provided by the investee company, therefore further provision for impairment loss of $1,902,000 (2008: $1,000,000) was made during the year ended 30 June 2009. (c)

To qualify for a staff loan from the University, the applicant must be over 21 years of age and has been a staff member of the University’s superannuation scheme for at least 4 years. The maximum amount of each staff loan is fixed at the lower of $1,800,000 and 60% of the staff superannuation benefit entitlement. In the event of default on repayment, the University can exercise its right to retain an amount equivalent to such indebtedness out of any amount due to the staff member, including benefits payable from the superannuation scheme. The prevailing interest rate for staff loan is 2% below the Best Lending rate.

由於被投資公司所提供的財務資料有 限,管理層認為此筆貸款餘額的可收 回機會依然不明朗,因此於2009年6 月30日止年度內再作出190萬2千元 (2008年:100萬元)的減值虧損撥備。 (c)

大學教職員貸款的申請人必須為按照 大學公積金制度受聘最少4年並年滿21 歲之教職員。每位借款人之最高借款 額為180萬元或其應得公積金福利之六 成,兩者以較低額者為準。如果借款 人未能如期償還款項,大學可行使權 利,從該借款人之所得任何款項(包括 公積金福利)中扣除該款項。現時之教 職員貸款利率為最優惠利率減兩釐。

Management has considered that the recoverability of a portion of other receivables of the Group is uncertain; therefore $880,000 (2008: nil) impairment loss on other receivables was made as at 30 June 2009.

管理層已考慮到大學整體的部份其他應 收帳款的可收回機會並不明朗,因此, 已於2009年6月30日對其他應收帳款作出 (2008年:無)的減值撥備。 $880,000

Apart from the above mentioned, receivables that are not considered to be impaired relate to a number of independent debtors. Based on past experience, management believes that no impairment allowance is necessary in respect of these balances.

除上文所述外,與若干個別帳户有關的應收 帳款並無作出減值撥備。管理層根據過往經 驗認為無須作出減值撥備之需要。

22 Employee Retirement Benefits

22

The Group operates two types of approved retirement schemes for its employees: a defined benefit scheme under the Occupational Retirement Schemes Ordinance and the Mandatory Provident Fund Scheme (the MPF Scheme) under the Hong Kong Mandatory Provident Fund Schemes Ordinance.

大學整體為僱員提供兩項認可的退休計劃: 根據《職業退休計劃條例》註冊的界定福利退 休計劃及按照香港《強制性公積金計劃條例》 設立的強制性公積金計劃(強積金計劃)。

The University operates City University of Hong Kong Superannuation Scheme B (1998) (the Superannuation Scheme) for its employees. The Superannuation Scheme is a defined benefit scheme registered under the Occupational Retirement Schemes Ordinance due to the provision for minimum death and disability benefits. The Superannuation Scheme is defined contribution in nature. Effective from 1 July 2007, the University’s and all scheme members’ contributions are unified to calculate at 15% and 5% respectively, of the employees’ salaries. In other words, minor grade staff members are also required to contribute 5% of their salary to the Scheme whereas the University’s contribution for them was increased from 10% to 15%. Benefits are paid in accordance with the Trust Deed of the Superannuation Scheme.

大學為僱員設立香港城市大學公積金乙計劃 (1998)(公積金計劃)。因計劃為死亡及傷殘 賠償設定下限,公積金計劃根據《職業退休 計劃條例》註冊為一項界定福利退休計劃。 公積金計劃實質為一項界定供款計劃。由 2007年7月1日起,大學及所有公積金計劃 成員之供款分別統一為成員薪金之15%及 5%。換言而之,基層職級職員須向計劃作 出薪金之5%供款,而大學之供款則由成員 薪金之10%增至15%。福利是根據公積金 計劃的信託契約支付。

The University and its subsidiaries operate the MPF Scheme for employees not covered by the Superannuation Scheme. The MPF Scheme is a defined contribution scheme administered by independent trustees. Under the MPF Scheme, the employer and its employees are each required to make contributions to the MPF Scheme at 5% of the employees’ salaries, subject to a cap of monthly salary of $20,000. Contributions to the MPF Scheme vest immediately.

大學及其附屬公司為不受公積金計劃保障的 僱員,設立強積金計劃。強積金計劃是一個 設定提存退休計劃,由獨立的受託人管理。 根據強積金計劃,僱主和僱員須按照僱員相 關入息的5%向計劃作出供款,但每月的相 關入息上限為2萬元。向強積金計劃作出的 供款即時成為既定僱員福利。

The contributions made and outstanding contributions to be made under the retirement schemes by the Group and the University during the year are as follows:

大學整體及大學年內向退休計劃供款金額概 述如下:

As at 30 June 2009, the outstanding contributions to defined contribution retirement schemes were $3,246,000 (2008: $3,091,000).

金融風險管理

Financial instruments of the Group include bank deposits, debt securities, equities, investments held by fund managers, loans and accounts receivables, accounts payables, loans and borrowings which have exposure to credit, liquidity, interest rate, foreign currency and equity price risks arising in the normal course of the Group’s operations. These risks are limited by the Group’s financial management policies and practices described below.

大學整體的金融工具包括銀行存款、債務證 劵、股票、存放於投資經理的投資、應收 貸款及應收帳款、應付帳款、貸款及借貸, 所承受的信貸、流動資金、利率、外匯及股 票價格風險均在大學整體日常營運過程中產 生。大學整體有下列的財務管理政策及程序 降低此等風險。

(a)

(a)

Credit Risk The Group’s credit risk is primarily attributable to investments, loans receivable and accounts receivable.

信貸風險 大學整體面對的信貸風險主要來自投 資、應收貸款及應收帳款。

The Group’s major investments include bank deposits, debt securities, equities managed internally and funds placed with external professional portfolio managers. Risk control is carried out under the investment guidelines approved by the Finance Committee under the Council. Risk control is achieved through asset diversification, rules governing the selection and credit limit of investment counterparties with reference to their credit ratings and financial strength and investment guidelines covering the investment limitations, asset allocation and performance measurement imposed for each portfolio manager. On-going monitoring and review of investment strategies and performance are carried out to ensure that the investment objectives and performance targets are met.

大學整體主要的投資包括由校內管理 的銀行存款、債務證劵、股票證劵及 投放在校外專業基金經理的資金。風 險管理乃根據校董會轄下的財務委員 會所批准的投資方針執行。風險管理 措施包括:資產多元化、參考被投資 方的信貸評級及財政能力來訂定挑選 及限制信貸的監管規則、局限投資及 資產分配的投資方針以及對個別基金 經理的表現作出評審。持續監控及回 顧投資策略及其表現的措施已執行, 以確保達至預期的投資目的及表現目 標。

In respect of loans receivable and accounts receivable, regular reviews and follow-up actions are carried out on over-due amounts to minimise exposure to credit risk. The Group and the University have no concentration of credit risk in view of its large number of debtors.

在應收貸款及應收帳款方面,大學整 體定期進行複查並跟進其過期繳付的 帳款,將其承受的信貸風險減至最 低。由於債務人數目眾多,大學整體 及大學並沒有集中的信貸風險。

The maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the carrying amount of each financial asset in the balance sheet. The Group does not provide any other guarantees which would expose the Group to credit risk.

最大的信貸風險為資產負債表中所列 出的各項財務資產金額。大學整體並 無作出任何其他擔保使大學整體承受 其他信貸風險。

(b) Liquidity Risk To ensure sufficient liquidity to meet payment obligations, the Group closely monitors its current and expected cash demands arisen from all liabilities and borrowings. The Group maintains sufficient cash and bank deposits to meet its liquidity requirements in the short and longer term.

Based on the cash flow analysis, the Group manages its liquidity risk by forecasting the amount of cash requirements and monitoring the working capital to ensure that all liabilities due and known funding requirements can be met.

(b)

流動資金風險 為確保有足夠的流動資金以支付帳 項,大學整體緊密地監察其當時及預 計應付因負債及借貸所產生的現金需 求。大學整體持有足夠的現金及銀行 存款以應付短期及長期的流動資金需 求。 根據現金流量的分析,大學整體透過 預算現金需求的金額及監管營運資金 的水平以確保所有到期的負債及已知 的資金需求都能應付的方法來管理流 動資金風險。

Interest Rate Risk The Group is exposed to interest rate risk since the Group has significant interest-bearing financial assets. The Group manages its exposure to interest rate risk through diversifying its funds into a variety of fixed and floating rate instruments with various tenures.

The Group’s interest-bearing financial liabilities at the balance sheet date are not significant. The Group does not expect short-term fluctuations in market interest rates that will have a significant impact to the Group’s results of operations.

(c)

利率風險 由於大學整體有龐大可賺取利息的金 融資產,因此大學整體承受利率風 險。大學整體透過將資產多元化地投 資在不同種類及多項不同年期的固定 及浮動利率工具上,管理其承受的利 率風險。 大學整體於結算日並沒有重大的帶息 金融負債。大學整體預期市場利率的 短期波動並不會對大學整體的營運結 果構成重大的影響。

Sensitivity Analysis

敏感度分析 於2009年6月30日,假設所有其他可 變動項目保持不變,倘利率增加╱減 少100點子,大學整體及大學於年內的 虧損分別會減少╱增加約92萬3千元 (2008年:增加╱減少盈餘243萬7千 元)及38萬1千元(2008年:增加╱減 少盈餘228萬1千元)。

As at 30 June 2009, it is estimated that a general increase/ decrease of 100 basis points in interest rates, with all other variables held constant, would have decreased/increased the Group and the University’s deficit by approximately $923,000 (2008: increased/decreased surplus by $2,437,000) and $381,000 (2008: increased/decreased surplus by $2,281,000) respectively. The sensitivity analysis above has been determined assuming that the change in interest rates had occurred at the balance sheet date and had been applied to the exposure to interest rate risk for investments in floating rate financial assets in existence at that date. The Group may expose to interest rate risk indirectly via its holding in the investment portfolios which hold debt instruments. Increase/(Decrease) in investment income from these investment portfolios arising from interest rate change however are not considered in the sensitivity analysis above due to insufficient information provided by fund managers. The 100 basis points increase/decrease represents management’s assessment of a reasonably possible change in interest rates over the period until next annual balance sheet date. The analysis is performed on the same basis for 2008.

(d) Foreign Currency Risk

上述敏感度分析的計算假設為利率的 變動於結算日發生,並應用於大學整 體於該日的浮息金融資產所承受的利 率風險。由於基金經理未能提供足夠 資料,故因利率變動而對該等投資組 合產生之投資收益改變,則沒有包括 于以上的敏感度分析中。增加或減少 100點子是指管理層對直至下個年度 結帳日止期間利率的合理可能變動的 評估。分析乃以2008年同一的基準進 行。

(d)

The Group primarily conducts its operation in Hong Kong with its transactions substantially denominated in Hong Kong Dollars (HKD). The Group is exposed to the currency risk primarily from deposits and investment portfolios that are denominated in other currencies. As United State Dollars (USD) is currently pegged to the HKD, the Group considers risk of movements in exchange rates between the HKD and USD to be insignificant.

利率風險(續)

外匯風險 大學整體主要在香港運作,而有關的 交易金額亦主要以港元為結算貨幣。 大學整體承受的外匯風險主要來自以 外幣為結算貨幣的存款及投資組合。 但因美元目前與港元掛鈎,大學整體 認為美元與港元匯率變化之風險不 大。

In respect of investment portfolios denominated in other currencies, the Group controls its exposure to foreign currency risk by limiting the currency exposure to non Hong Kong dollar currencies as stipulated in the investment guidelines.

有關以其他外幣計值之投資,大學整 體透過於投資方針所規定的非港元貨 幣投資局限其所承受的外幣風險。

As at 30 June 2009, the percentage of financial assets denominated in currencies other than HKD or USD to total financial assets of the Group and the University is 14% (2008: 19%). Details are as follows:

Equity Price Risk

金融風險管理(續) (e)

The Group is exposed to equity price risk as the value of its equity investments will increase/decrease if equity prices change. In respect of investment portfolios for investing in equity securities, the Group controls its exposure to equity price risk through diversifying the portfolios in terms of asset classes and geographical areas in accordance with the limits as stipulated in the investment guidelines.

股票價格風險 股票投資的價值會隨著股票價格轉變 而上升╱下跌,因此大學整體承受著 股票價格風險。有關以投資股份證劵 的投資組合,大學整體透過於投資方 針所規定的資產組別及地區分佈局限 所承受的股票價格風險。

At the balance sheet date, if the prices of the respective equity instruments had been 5% higher/lower, with all other variables held constant, the Group’s and the University’s deficit for the year would have decreased/increased by $71,869,000 (2008: increased/decreased surplus by $93,548,000) and $71,729,000 (2008: increased/decreased surplus by $93,381,000) respectively as a result of the changes in fair value of listed equity securities.

於結算日,若股票價格的價格上升╱ 下跌5%,在其他一切可變因素均維持 不變的情況下,大學整體及大學於年 內的虧損,會因上市股票證券的公平 價值變動,分別減少╱增加7,186萬9 千元(2008年:增加╱減少盈餘9,354 萬8千元)及7,172萬9千元(2008年: 增加╱減少盈餘9,338萬1千元)。

The Group’s and the University’s listed equity investments are traded in the following regions’ stock markets:

30 Accounting Estimates and Judgements

30

會計估計及判斷

The Group’s property, plant and equipment are depreciated on a straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, after taking into account their estimated residual value. The Group determines the estimated useful lives and residual values of the assets based on historical actual usage experience, maintenance and replacement policy. Management reviews the useful lives of assets annually, and if expectations are significantly different from previous estimates of useful economic lives, the useful lives and, therefore, the depreciation rate for the future periods will be adjusted accordingly.

大學整體的校舍、機器及設備是按其預計可 使用年限減去其預計殘值用直線法折舊。大 學整體依據過往實際使用經驗、維修及更換 政策估計對資產的可使用年限及預計殘值作 出判斷。管理層按年檢討資產可用年限。如 果所作的預期顯著有別於以往的可用年限估 計,則可用年限以至未來期間的折舊率將會 因此一併調整。
