Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors of and Shareholders of
Korea Line Corporation
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Korea Line Corporation (the
"Company") as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the related statements of
income, appropriation of retained earnings and cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended December 31, 2006, all expressed in Korean won. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31,
2006 and 2005, and the results of its operations, the changes in its retained
earnings and its cash flows for the three years in the period ended December 31,
2006, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
Republic of Korea.
Accounting principles generally accepted in the Republic of Korea vary in
certain significant respects from accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America. Information relating to the nature and effect of
such differences is presented in Note 32 to the financial statements.
As discussed in Note 27 to the financial statements, under the provision of
Korean tax law enacted from 2005, the Company elected to pay income taxes by
applying tonnage tax system to its income from international shipping and
accounted for tax expense in line with the new provision in the accompanying
financial statements.
