Work in progress, finished goods and merchandise are combined into one item due to production conditions in the chemical industry. Services in progress mainly relate to services not invoiced as of the balance sheet date.
The increase in trade accounts receivable compared with December 31, 2021, was primarily attributable to seasonal sales volumes growth in the Agricultural Solutions segment and higher sales prices due to increased raw materials prices.
