Revaluations are further detailed in the Revaluation section.
- Depreciation: The amount in this field will be the accumulated depreciation amount of the Asset, rounded to 2 decimal places.
- Impairment: This field would normally display the value of any Historic Cost Impairment but as Impairments are not currently being used, this field can be ignored,
- Carrying Value: This will be the Gross Cost less the Depreciation less the Impairment.
