Fixed Assets - tab Value

Line

Number of the line.

Date

Date of event creation:

• In case of acquisition, this refers to the date of activation of the fixed asset, which is at the same date when depreciation calculation starts. If you change the date of activation of the fixed asset in the main window, then the date in this field (for entry type 1 - Acquisition) automatically changes. If depreciation has already been calculated, it has probably been calculated for the wrong period. The program issues a warning about this: Activation date changed! Check if the calculated depreciation is correct! Update the activation date in the Changes panel?). If the date of activation does not exist at the moment of entry into the register, then the date of acquisition of fixed asset is entered in this field. Any modifications of the date of activation can be entered manually at a later stage.
• In case of depreciation calculation (21, 22 and 23), this refers to the date when you confirmed the calculation. For more information, see the chapter depreciation calculation. 

hint In the next report, depreciation is calculated from the date displayed here!

• For the remaining entry types (3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8), the date in value adjustment is an indicator of the start of depreciation calculation for this entry. When posting value adjustment, this date is used as the period date to which the post is linked.

Purchase value

The amount of (revaluated) purchase value, which is:

• the actual purchase value upon acquisition of the fixed asset, or
• after the possible revaluation report this refers to the revaluated purchase value of fixed asset from the report.

HINT The value is always entered as a positive amount, because according to the entry type, the program consider cases in which the value entered here is deducted (type 5 - Downward revaluation in downward revaluation accounts or 23 - Depreciation in downward revaluation accounts or 7 - Reversal of upward revaluation).

Accumulated Depreciation 

The difference between the purchase value and accumulated depreciation is shown as accounting (carrying) value.

hint The value is always entered as a positive amount because the program shall according to the entry type consider cases in which the value entered here is deducted (type 5 - Downward revaluation in downward revaluation accounts or rather 23 - Depreciation in downward revaluation accounts and 7 - Reversal of upward revaluation)..

Currency

Currency in which the value of fixed asset is measured.

Status

Status of the fixed asset.

All active fixed assets by default have the status AK - Active, while the non-active ones (sold or written off and deactivated, that is disposed fixed assets) have the status NA.

When the inventory count sheet is created, it includes only active fixed assets. That includes those marked for depreciation and revaluation calculation.

WARNING A non-active fixed asset cannot be activated AGAIN. If you want to change the status of a fixed asset to active, you have to reverse the deactivation of fixed asset.

Book Value

Book value is calculated as a difference between purchase value less accumulated depreciation.

Depreciation

Depreciation of the period.
