5 NotesCONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTSto the financial s tatements p repared in accordance with I nternational Financial Reporting S tandards as adopted by the European Union1.m USE OF ESTIMATES IN THE PREPARATIONOF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSPreparation of the financial statements requires managers of corebusinesses and corporate functions to make assumptions and estimatesthat are reflected in the measurement of income and expense in the profitand loss account and of assets and liabilities in the balance sheet, and inthe disclosure of information in the notes to the financial statements.This requires the managers in question to exercise their judgement andto make use of information available at the date of preparation of thefinancial statements when making their estimates. The actual futureresults from operations in respect of which managers have made useof estimates may in reality differ from those estimates. This may have amaterial effect on the financial statements.This applies in particular to:■ impairment losses recognised to cover credit risks inherent in bankingintermediation activities;■ the use of internally-developed models to measure positions infinancial instruments that are not quoted in organised markets;< Contents >■ calculations of the fair value of unquoted financial instrumentsclassified in “Available-for-sale financial assets”, “Financial assetsat fair value through profit or loss” or “Financial liabilities at fairvalue through profit or loss”, and (more generally) calculations of thefair value of financial instruments subject to a fair value disclosurerequirement;■ impairment tests performed on intangible assets;■ the appropriateness of the designation of certain derivative instrumentsas cash flow hedges, and the measurement of hedge effectiveness;■ estimates of the residual value of assets leased under finance leases oroperating leases, and (more generally) of assets on which depreciationis charged net of their estimated residual value;■ the measurement of provisions for contingencies and charges.This is also the case for assumptions applied to assess the sensitivityof each type of market risk and the sensitivity of valuations to nonobservableparameters.1234Note 2.NOTES TO THE P ROFIT AND L OSS A CCOUNT FOR THE YEAR E NDED31 DECEMBER 200752.a NET INTEREST INCOMEThe BNP Paribas Group includes in “Interest income” and “Interestexpense” all income and expense from financial instruments measuredat amortised cost (interest, fees/commissions, transaction costs), andfrom financial instruments measured at fair value that do not meetthe definition of derivative instruments. These amounts are calculatedusing the effective interest method. The change in fair value on financialinstruments at fair value through profit or loss (excluding accruedinterest) is recognised in “Net gain/loss on financial instruments at fairvalue through profit or loss”.Interest income and expense on derivatives accounted for as fair valuehedges are included with the revenues generated by the hedged item. Inlike manner, interest income and expense arising from derivatives usedto hedge transactions designated as at fair value through profit or lossis allocated to the same accounts as the interest income and expenserelating to the underlying transactions.678910111282007 Registration document - BNP PARIBAS
