Accounting Policy
Intangible assets are initially measured at cost, which includes all expenditures directly attributable to preparing the asset for its intended use, or at the fair value of intangible assets acquired in a business combination. After initial recognition, the Company measures intangible assets at cost less accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses, if applicable. The Company applies the amortization rates established by ANEEL, taking into consideration that the useful lives estimated by the regulator are appropriate for its assets, and uses the annual amortization rates for electricity‑sector assets set forth in the Electricity Sector Asset Management Manual (MCPSE). Intangible assets associated with concessions that do not provide for compensation at the end of the contractual term are amortized over the concession or authorization period.
