FAIR VALUE HIERARCHY A fair value hierarchy is defined in accordance with IFRS 13 for the fair value measurement of the recognized financial instruments:  Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.  Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).  Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). The fair value of derivatives is based on future cash flows, objectively determinable forward rates of the relevant interest rates, foreign currencies and commodities at balance sheet date and forward rates according to the respective contracts. Moreover the discount rate applied is derived from the relevant interest curves. The fair value of derivatives is categorized as level 2 (31 December 2020: level 2). The fair value of the long-term and short-term loans and other payables with a fixed interest rate is determined based on the present value of future cash flows for which the discount rate is derived from relevant interest curves. The fair value of these loans and other payables is categorized as level 3 (31 December 2020: level 3).
