1. Summary of significant accounting policies
a) Basis of Consolidated Financial Statements Presentation
These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Dectron
Internationale Inc., Dectron Inc. Consolidated,Circul-aire Group and
International Water Makers Inc.
Dectron Inc. Consolidated is comprised of Dectron Inc. and of its
wholly-owned subsidiaries, Refplus Inc., Thermoplus Air Inc., Dectron
U.S.A. Inc., and IPAC 2000 Inc.
Circul-aire Group is comprised of Cascade Technologies Inc., and of its
wholly-owned subsidiaries, Purafil Canada Inc. and Circul-aire Inc. and
its wholly-owned subsidiary Tranzmetal Inc.
All inter-company profits, transactions and account balances have been
eliminated.
b) Foreign Currency Translation
The company maintains its books and records in Canadian dollars. The
operation of the company's subsidiary in the United States is an
integrated corporation. As a result, monetary assets and liabilities in
foreign currency are translated into Canadian dollars at exchange rates in
effect at the balance sheet date, whereas non-monetary assets and
liabilities are translated at the average exchange rates in effect at
transaction dates. Income and expenses in foreign currency are translated
at the average rate effective during the year with the exception of
depreciation and amortization, which is translated at the historical rate.
Gains and losses resulting from the translation of foreign currency
transactions are included in earnings.
The translation of the financial statements from Canadian dollars into
United States dollars is performed for the convenience of the reader.
Balance sheet accounts are translated using closing exchange rates in
effect at the balance sheet date and income and expense accounts are
translated using an average exchange rate prevailing during each reporting
period. No representation is made that the Canadian dollar amounts could
have been, or could be, converted into United States dollars at the rates
on the respective dates and or at any other certain rates. Adjustments
resulting from the translation are included in the accumulated other
comprehensive income in stockholder's equity.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Critical Accounting Policies
Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). These accounting
principles require us to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions. We
believe that the estimates, judgments and assumptions upon which we rely are
reasonable based upon information available to us at the time that these
estimates, judgments and assumptions are made. These estimates, judgments and
assumptions can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the
date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues
and expenses during the periods presented. To the extent there are material
differences between these estimates, judgments or assumptions and actual
results, our financial statements will be affected. The significant accounting
policies that we believe are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and
evaluating our reported financial results include the following:
o Revenue Recognition
o Deferred Revenue
o Intangible Assets and Goodwill
o Foreign currency translation
o Accounting for Income Taxes
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue for finished products when the goods are shipped
and title passes to the customer, provided that there are no uncertainties
regarding customer acceptance, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exist; the
sales price is fixed or determinable; and collectibility is deemed probable.
Deferred Revenue
The company has sold extended warranty contracts covering a period of four to
nine years beyond the one year basic guarantee. The deferred revenue is
recognized as income over the four to nine year period on a straight-line basis
commencing one year from the sale of the contracts.
Intangible Assets and Goodwill
The company accounts for intangible assets and goodwill in accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) 142, "Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets", which was adopted by the Company on February 1, 2002 in
accordance with that statement, goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite
lives are no longer amortized, but rather tested for impairment at least
annually. Intangible assets with estimable useful lives, consisting of patents,
trademarks, and rights, are amortized on a straight-line basis over the
estimated useful lives of 5 to 15 years, and are reviewed for impairment in
accordance with SFAS 144, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets".
Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the fair value of
identifiable assets acquired in a purchase business combination. For the years
2002 and 2001, goodwill was amortized using the straight-line method, over a
period of 10 years.
Goodwill and intangible assets with definite lives are tested annually for
impairment in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 142.
Impairment of goodwill is tested at the reporting unit level by comparing the
reporting unit's carrying amount, including goodwill, to the fair value of the
reporting unit. The fair values of the reporting units are estimated using a
combination of the income or discounted cash flows approach and the market
approach, which utilizes comparable companies' data. If the carrying amount of
the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, then a second step is performed to
measure the amount of impairment loss, if any. Any impairment loss would be
expensed in the consolidated statements of earnings. The impairment test for
intangibles with indefinite useful lives consists of a comparison of the fair
value of the intangible assets with its carrying amount. When the carrying
amount of the intangible assets exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss would
be recognized for the difference.
Intangible assets with estimable lives and other long-lived assets are reviewed
for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
carrying amount of an asset or assets group may not be recoverable in accordance
with SFAS 144. Recoverability of intangible assets with estimable lives and
other long- lived assets is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of
an assets or asset group to future net undiscounted pretax cash flows expected
to be generated by the assets or asset group. If these comparisons indicated
that an asset is not recoverable, the impairment loss recognized is the amount
by which the carrying amount of the asset or the asset group exceeds the related
estimated fair value.
Foreign Currency Translation
The company maintains its books and records in Canadian dollars. Foreign
currency transactions are translated using the temporal method. Under this
method, all monetary items are translated into Canadian funds at the rate of
exchange prevailing at balance sheet date. Non-monetary items are translated at
historical rates. Income and expenses are translated at the rate in effect on
the transaction dates. Transaction gains and losses are included in the
determination of earnings for the year.
The translation of the financial statements from Canadian dollars into United
States dollars is performed for the convenience of the reader. Balance sheet
accounts are translated using closing exchange rates in effect at the balance
sheet date and income and expense accounts are translated using an average
exchange rate prevailing during each reporting period. No representation is made
that the Canadian dollar amounts could have been, or could be, converted into
United States dollars at the rates on the respective dates and or at any other
certain rates. Adjustments resulting from the translation are included in the
accumulated other comprehensive income in stockholder's equity.
Income Taxes
As part of the process of preparing our financial statements, we will be
required to estimate our income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we
operate. This process will involve estimates of our actual current tax exposure
together with assessing temporary differences resulting from differing treatment
of items, such as depreciation and amortization, for tax and accounting
purposes.

basis point increase in interest rates would increase annual interest expense by
$120,000.
