Such obligation is determined by means of the current value of the benefit accrued cost, a method that considers several factors for the calculation such as estimates of future continuance, mortality rates, future salary increases and discount rates. The Company periodically evaluates the above-mentioned factors based on historical data and future projections, making adjustments that apply when checking changes sustained trend. The so-determined value is presented at the current value by using the severance benefits accrued method. The discount rate is determined by reference to market interest rates curves for high quality entrepreneurial bonds. The discount rate in Chile was
6.34% and Argentina 111.68% for the year ended December 31, 2022 (in Chile 6.97% and the Argentina 61.23% in December 31, 2021).
