Taes PADICO and its subsidiaries establish provisions, based on reasonable estimates, for possible consequences of audits b the ta authorities of the respective countries in hich it operates. The amount of such provisions is based on various factors, such as eperience of previous ta audits and differing interpretations of ta regulations b the taable entit and the responsible ta authorit. air value of financial instruments here the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the consolidated statement of financial position cannot be derived from active markets, the are determined using valuation techniques including the discounted cash flos model. The inputs to these models are taken from observable markets here possible, but here this is not feasible, a degree of udgment is required in establishing fair values. The udgments include considerations of inputs such as liquidit risk, credit risk and market volatilit. Changes in assumptions about these factors could affect the reported fair value of financial instruments. seful lives of tangible and intangible assets PADICOs management reassesses the useful lives of tangible and intangible assets, and adusts it, if applicable, at each financial ear end. Investment Properties PADICOs management relies on real estate eperts to reassess investment properties. Impairment of goodill The determination hether goodill is impaired requires an estimation of the “value in use” of the cashgenerating units to hich the goodill is allocated. uch estimation requires management to make an estimate of the epected future cash flos from the cashgenerating unit and also to choose a suitable discount rate in order to calculate the present value of those cash flos.
