Impairment tests
The Group prepares impairment test calculations at operating segment
or at lower business unit level annually. The key assumptions for calcula-
tions are those regarding business growth outlook, product prices, cost
development, and discount rate.
The business growth outlook is based on general forecasts for the
business in question. Ten-year forecasts are used in these calculations as
the nature of the Group’s business is long-term, due to its capital inten-
sity, and is exposed to cyclical changes. In estimates of product prices
and cost development, forecasts prepared by management for the next
three years and estimates made for the following seven years are taken
into consideration. The Group’s recent profitability trend is taken into
account in the forecasts. In addition, when preparing estimates, consider-
ation is given to the investment decisions made by the Group as well as
the profitability programmes that the Group has implemented and the
views of knowledgeable industry experts on the long-term development
of demand and prices.
In annual impairment tests, the recoverable amount of groups of
cash generating units is determined based on value in use calculations.
The discount rate is estimated using the weighted average cost of
capital on the calculation date adjusted for risks specific to the business
in question. The pre-tax discount rate used in 2014 for pulp operations
Finland was 9.86% (10.06%), and for pulp operations Uruguay 9.62%
(8.48%). The recoverable amount is most sensitive to pulp sales prices
and the cost of wood raw material. As at 31 December 2014, for pulp
operations Finland, a decrease of more than 13.4% in pulp prices would
result in recognition of impairment loss against goodwill. The Group
believes that no reasonable change in wood cost would cause the aggre-
gate carrying amount to exceed the recoverable amount. For pulp opera-
tions Uruguay, a decrease of more than 3.9% in pulp prices or an
increase of more than 10% in wood cost would result in recognition of
impairment loss against goodwill. A decrease of more than 5.6% in pulp
prices or an increase of more than 15% in wood cost would result in a
write-down of the entire goodwill.

Water rights
Intangible rights include EUR 189 million (189 million) in respect of the
water rights of hydropower plants belonging to the UPM Energy seg-
ment that are deemed to have an indefinite useful life as the company has
a contractual right to exploit water resources in the energy production of
these power plants. The values of these water rights are tested annually
for impairment based on expected future cash flows of each separate
hydropower plant.
