Ginseng Crops
The Company uses the full absorption costing method to value its Ginseng crops. Included in crop costs are seeds, labor, applicable overhead including depreciation, and supplies. Common costs are allocated in each period based upon the total number of hectors under cultivation during the period.
The carrying value of the Ginseng crops is reviewed on a regular basis for any impairment in value using management’s best estimate as to expected future market values, yields and costs to harvest. Costs accumulated on the acres expected to be harvested during the next fiscal year have been classified as a current asset.
