Recovery of deferred tax assets will depend on whether sufficient taxable profits are obtained in the future. The Company’s Management believes that the future profit projections for its subsidiaries will allow these assets to be recovered.

As of December 31, 2021, the Group has accounted for all deferred tax assets associated with its tax losses. The Group has not recognized deferred tax assets related to tax loss carry forwards of ThCh$4,551,790 as of December 31, 2020, (see Note 3.p).

Concerning temporary differences related to investments in consolidated entities and certain joint ventures, the Group has not recognized deferred tax liabilities associated with undistributed profits, in which the position of control exercised by the Group over such consolidated entities allows it to manage the time of their reversal, and it is estimated that they will not be reversed in the near future. The total amount of these taxable temporary differences, for which no deferred tax liabilities have been recognized as of December 31, 2021, amounts to ThCh$1,232,849,769 (ThCh$1,317,729,055 as of December 31, 2020). Additionally, no deferred tax assets have been recorded in relation to the deductible temporary differences associated with investments in consolidated entities and certain joint ventures. Such temporary differences are not expected to be reversed in the foreseeable future or tax gains will not be available for their use. As of December 31, 2021, such deductible temporary differences amount to ThCh$1,433,966,236 (ThCh$999,207,087 as of December 31,2020).

The Group companies are potentially subject to income tax audits by the tax authorities of each country in which the Group operates. Such tax audits are limited to a number of annual tax periods and once these have expired, audits of these periods can no longer be performed. Tax audits by nature are often complex and can require several years to complete. Tax years potentially subject to examination are 2018 to 2020.

Given the range of possible interpretations of tax standards, the results of any future inspections carried out by tax authorities for the years subject to audit can give rise to tax liabilities that cannot currently be quantified objectively. Nevertheless, the Company’s Management estimates that the liabilities, if any, that may arise from such audits, would not significantly impact the Group companies’ future results.

The effects of deferred taxes on the components of other comprehensive income attributable to both controlling and non-controlling interests for the years ended December 31 2021, 2020 and 2019 are as follows:
