Group profile and file conventions

Vestrel Industries SA (fictitious entity), an industrial group, closes its consolidated accounts on 31 December 20X6. File conventions: amounts in EUR; the losses of each scenario are given discounted; the original effective interest rate and the credit-adjusted rate are data; the recalculated gross carrying amount of a modified asset is the present value of the modified cash flows at the original effective interest rate (the file's recalculation method); file convention (pedagogical assumption, not imposed by IFRS 9): the expected loss of the credit line is computed as exposure × probability of default × loss given default, without discounting; differences are expressed as percentages; the entries are illustrative.
