Environmental Accounting

Checking the Environmental Activities through the Environmental Management Accounting and Audit

For environmental management promotion, the TOSHIBA TEC Group checks the environmental activities through the environmental management accounting and audit, reflects the results in its environmental management, and strives for compliance.

Environmental accounting is used to quantitatively understand environmental protection-related costs and benefits and utilize the quantitative data as guidelines for business activities.

For environmental protection costs in 2009, capital investments of approximately 30 million yen and expenses of approximately 880 million yen were made on a consolidated basis. Investments were made especially toward global warming prevention and energy-saving measures. Benefits resulted in 1.8 billion yen. Decrease in production and the measures to reduce environmental impacts contributed to the increase of benefits over the previous year. Greater benefits arose from the reduction of environmental impacts at the product usage phase.
