Objective of the workpaper

For each category of level 3 items measured on a recurring basis (one instance per category), take the opening balance and the movements of the period (profit or loss, other comprehensive income, purchases, sales and settlements, transfers into and out of level 3), rebuild the closing balance, compare it with the reported balance, document the transfers, then prepare the reconciliation and the note on sensitivity to unobservable inputs.
