8.1.    Sensitivity analysis

The fair value of animals and forests is determined using unobservable inputs, therefore it is classified in the Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The main assumptions used in the measurement of the fair value of forests and their impact on measurement are presented below.

            The estimated fair value can change if:
Asset   Valuation methodology   Non observable  significant inputs   Increase   Decrease
Forests   Income approach   Estimated price of standing wood   Increase in the price of wood   Decrease in the price of wood
    Productivity per hectare estimated   Increase in yield per hectare    Decrease in yield per hectare 
    Harvest and transport cost   Decrease of harvest cost    Increase of harvest cost 
    Discount rate   Descrease in discount rate    Increase in discount rate 
Live animals   Cost approach   Price of the feed inputs   Increase in feed cost   Decrease in feed cost
    Storage costs   Increase in storage cost   Decrease in storage cost
    Outgrowers cost   Increase in outgrowers cost   Decrease in outgrowers cost

The prices used in the valuation of forests are those practiced in the regions where the Company is located and were obtained through market research. The discount rate corresponds to the average cost of capital and other economic assumptions for a market participant.

The weighted average price used in the valuation of biological assets (forests) on December 31, 2022 was equivalent to R$54.12 per stere (R$39.40 per stere on December 31, 2021). The real discount rate used in the valuation of the biological asset (forests) on December 31, 2022 was 7.89% p.a. (6.70% p.a. on December 31, 2021).
