Significant Accounting Policies (Consolidated)
1. Items relating to the scale of consolidation and the application of the equity method
Consolidated subsidiaries:
18 additions including INRG Hog Kong Ltd.(from equity method)
6 removals including Ricoh Parts and Components Ltd.(liquidation)
Companies accounted for by the equity method:
3 additions including Foto Island (NSW) Pty, Ltd.(from consolidated subsidiaries)
16 removals including Rios Systems Co., Ltd..(liquidation)
2. Consolidated Accounting Policies
(1) Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Ricoh. All significant intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments in affiliated companies are accounted for on the
equity basis.
(2) Securities
Ricoh conforms with SFAS No.115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities," which
requires certain investments in debt and equity securities to be classified as either held-to-maturity, trading, or
available-for-sale securities. Available-for-sale are reported at fair value with unrealized gains and losses, net of
related taxes, excluded from earnings and reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).
The cost of the securities sold was computed based on the average cost of each security held at the time of sale.
(3) Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of average cost or market. Inventory costs include raw materials, labor and
manufacturing overheads.
(4) Plant and Equipment
Depreciation of plant and equipment is computed principally by using the declining-balance method over the
estimated useful lives. Most of the foreign subsidiaries have adopted the straight-line method for computing
depreciation.
Certain leased buildings, machinery and equipment are accounted for as capital leases in conformity with SFAS No.
13, "Accounting for Leases."
(5) Goodwill
Ricoh has classified as goodwill the cost in excess of fair value of the net assets of major companies acquired in
purchase transactions. Goodwill is being amortized on a straight-line method over the estimated periods
benefited, not to exceed 20 years.
(6) Use of Estimates
Management of the Company has made a number of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, to prepare these
financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.

(2) Derivative
The Company and certain of its subsidiaries enter into various financial instrument contracts in the normal course of
business and in connection with the management of its assets and liabilities.
The Company and certain of its subsidiaries enter into foreign currency contracts to hedge assets and liabilities
denominated in foreign currencies.
The contracted amounts outstanding as of March 31, 1999 and 2000 were 105,022 million yen and 91,627 million
yen, respectively.
Gains or losses on those contracts used to hedge existing assets and liabilities are recognized in income currently.
In connection with short-term borrowings and long-term indebtedness, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries
have used interest rate swap agreements as a means of managing its interest exposure; at March 31, 1999 and 2000,
they had 351,893 million yen and 378,010 million yen of contractual amounts under interest rate swap agreements.
Interest rate swap transactions generally involve the exchange of floating rate for fixed rate interest payment
obligations without an exchange of underlying principal amounts. The differentials to be paid or received under
the interest rate swap agreements are accrued.
The counterparties to the above financial instrument contracts are major financial institutions and, therefore, the
Company and certain of its subsidiaries are exposed to credit risk in the event of nonperformance by counterparties.
However, the Company does not anticipate nonperformance by them.
The carrying amount and estimated fair value of derivative financial instruments as of March 31, 1999 and 2000 are
