due to currency effects was offset by the reclassification of<br />

inventories to the balance sheet item “assets held for sale”<br />

in the context of the agreed-upon sale of consumer electronics<br />

stores in france.<br />

Inventories include write-downs of €317 million (previous<br />

year: €348 million).<br />

26. Trade receivables<br />

Of total trade receivables of €526 million (previous year:<br />

€539 million), €1 million (previous year: €2 million) is due<br />

in over one year.<br />

The decline in trade receivables is essentially attributable<br />

to the decline in the commission business compared to the<br />

previous year. In addition, a reclassification to the item<br />

“assets held for sale” was carried out in the context of the<br />

disposal of the french consumer electronics stores.<br />

This was partly offset by the opening of new locations in the<br />

context of the expansion and special sales promotions at the<br />

end of the year.
