Business areas for information on UPM products.
Accounting policies
Revenue from UPM’s product sales is recognised when the customer
takes title and assumes the risks and rewards of ownership. The timing
of revenue recognition is largely dependent on delivery terms. Group
terms of delivery are based on Incoterms 2010, the official rules for
interpretation of trade terms issued by the International Chamber of
Commerce. Revenue is recorded when the product is delivered to the
destination point for terms designated Delivered Duty Paid (“DDP”) or
Delivered at Place (“DAP”). For sales transactions designated Free on
Carrier (“FCA”), Carriage paid to (“CPT”) or Carriage and Insurance
Paid to (“CIP”), revenue is recorded at the time of shipment.
UPM sells energy to NordPool electricity market. Revenue is
recognised when electricity is transmissed.
UPM provides forest expertise and contracting services to
woodland and forestry owners. Revenues from services are recorded
when the service has been performed.
Sales are recognised net of indirect sales taxes, discounts, rebates
and cash flow hedging results of sales in foreign currency as well as
hedges of energy sales.
