NOTE 25 - CREDIT RISK

 

Credit risk results from the possibility that a loss may occur from the failure of another party to perform according to the terms of the contract. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Corporation to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and trade and other accounts receivable. Cash is maintained with high-credit quality financial institutions. For trade accounts receivable, the Corporation performs periodic credit evaluations and typically does not require collateral. Allowances are maintained for potential credit losses consistent with the credit risk, historical trends, general economic conditions and other information.

 

The Corporation has a limited number of customers. Included in the consolidated statement of financial position as of December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 are trade accounts receivable of $0, for the three years. No bad debt expense was recorded on trade accounts receivable for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 or 2020.

 

At December 31, 2022, the Corporation’s maximum credit exposure corresponded to the carrying amount of cash, and other receivables.
