63 INDOFOOD AGRI RESOURCES LTD • ANNUAL REPORT 2013
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
For the financial year ended 31 December 2013
TO THE MEMBERS OF INDOFOOD AGRI RESOURCES LTD.
REPORT ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Indofood Agri Resources Ltd. (the "Company") and its subsidiaries (collectively
the "Group"), set out on pages 64 to 144, which comprise the balance sheets of the Group and the Company as at 31 December 2013,
the consolidated statement of changes in equity, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, and the consolidated cash flow
statement of the Group for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.
Management's responsibility for the financial statements
Management is responsible for the preparation of financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with the provisions of
the Singapore Companies Act, Chapter 50 (the "Act") and Singapore Financial Reporting Standards, and for devising and maintaining
a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide a reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded against loss from
unauthorised use or disposition; and transactions are properly authorised and that they are recorded as necessary to permit the
preparation of true and fair profit and loss accounts and balance sheets and to maintain accountability of assets.
Auditor's responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with
Singapore Standards on Auditing. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
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 of financial statements that give a true and fair view 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
management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements of the Group and the balance sheet of the Company are properly drawn up in
accordance with the provisions of the Act and Singapore Financial Reporting Standards so as to give a true and fair view of the state of
affairs of the Group and of the Company as at 31 December 2013 and the results, changes in equity and cash flows of the Group for
the year ended on that date.
Report on other legal and regulatory requirements
In our opinion, the accounting and other records required by the Act to be kept by the Company and by those subsidiaries incorporated
in Singapore of which we are the auditors have been properly kept in accordance with the provisions of the Act.
