Carrying amount: collateral obtained by taking possession other than collateral classified as property Plant and equipment (PP&E) must equal <= 2 years (EBA rule v8071_m)

A warning in the financial reporting return (FINREP 9), on template F 25.01.a, collateral obtained by taking possession other than collateral classified as property Plant and equipment (PP&E): inflows and outflows (I).

The rule in plain words

For carrying amount: collateral obtained by taking possession other than collateral classified as property Plant and equipment (PP&E) must equal <= 2 years.

All the values are in the inflow due to new collateral obtained by taking possession row (0030) of F 25.01.a.

How the Line4 Check report words itShow

Word for word as the report shows it when the rule fails.

Inflow due to new collateral obtained by taking possession, Collateral obtained by taking possession other than collateral classified as Property Plant and Equipment (PP&E), carrying amount = Inflow due to new collateral obtained by taking possession, <= 2 years, carrying amount

What to do if your filing fails it

  1. 01Open the template below and find the cells the rule reads.
  2. 02The two values must be the same. Find which of the two is right, and correct the other one.
  3. 03EBA allows a small rounding difference, worked out from the decimals each value is reported with.
  4. 04It runs only when your filing indicators mark F 25.01 as reported.
  5. 05This is a warning. It does not stop the filing on its own, but your authority may ask you to explain it.

The cells it reads

A worked example

The first of its checks, with simple numbers.

Illustrative values
Carrying amount, collateral obtained by taking possession other than collateral classified as property Plant and equipment (PP&E)1,200
What the rule then expects

Carrying amount, <= 2 years must then be 1,200.

1,200Passes
1,300Fails

A file that reports 1,200 passes. One that reports 1,300 fails, by 100.

The numbers are illustrative, reported to the unit, so the rounding tolerance does not change the result.
