Financial assets (comprise debt financial assets) are measured at amortized cost, provided that both the following conditions are met:
Upon initial recognition, these assets are measured at fair value. The initial value of an asset measured at amortized cost is adjusted by all commissions and fees which affect its effective return and constitute an integral element of the effective interest rate of this asset (commissions and fees arising in connection with activities performed by the Group and leading to the arising of the assets).
The carrying value of this category of assets is determined using the effective interest rate described in note ‘Interest income and expenses’, which is used to determine (calculate) the interest income generated by the asset in a given period, adjusting it for expected credit loss allowances.
Assets for which the schedule of future cash flows necessary for calculating the effective interest rate cannot bedetermined are not measured at amortized cost. Such assets are measured at amounts due which also include interest on receivables, taking into consideration allowances for expected credit losses. Commissions and fees connected with the arising of or decisive for the financial qualities of such assets should be settled over the period of life of the asset using the straight-line method, and are included in commission income.
