We have examined the consolidated balance sheets of Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. and consolidated subsidiaries as of March 31, 1996 and 1995, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 1996, all expressed in yen. Our examinations were made in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in Japan and, accordingly, included such tests of the accounting records and such other auditing procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances.
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements, expressed in yen, present fairly the consolidated financial position of Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. and consolidated subsidiaries at March 31, 1996 and 1995, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 1996, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in Japan applied on a consistent basis.
The U.S. dollar amounts in the accompanying consolidated financial statements with respect to the year ended March 31, 1996 are presented solely for convenience. Our examination also included the translation of yen amounts into U.S. dollar amounts and, in our opinion, such translation has been made on the basis described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements.
