Auditor's Report
In an English translation of an Auditor's Report, the word, "Method", here, under the sub-heading, "SURPLUS", doesn't seem to ring true. There is also, "Investment" Method Reserve. I have the same misgiving.

destination of the surplus: investment (reinvestment) - Reserves
Given the limited context, I would say that these are the ways to apply or to use the surplus, one way is to do investments, the other way is to constitute reserves (some of them are legally ordered, others are voluntary), these apply to an Equity (patrimony) account. This is as close as I can get. Hope it helps

Comment: "My apologies to you all again about this business of the missing source text; maybe I'm having too many "senior moments" these days.
Thank you, Felipe. On the basis of your explanation and other reasons, I've left it "as is"."
