You use this program to perform a full or partial disposal of an asset.
In addition, this program can be used to view disposal details (i.e. the effect of disposal) without actually disposing, or partially disposing, of the asset.
A full disposal, partial disposal or disposal calculation can be performed against any of the depreciation books held against the asset.
Paragraph 67 of IAS 16 requires that an asset is disposed of when it is de-recognised or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use.
If a General Ledger account used in this program requires General Ledger analysis (General Ledger Codes or GL Structure Definition), then the GL Analysis program is displayed when you post the transaction, enabling you to enter the analysis details or to select to enter them later (see General Ledger Integration). General Ledger analysis entries are always distributed in the local currency, irrespective of the currency in which the original transaction is processed.

Select this to process the full or partial disposal of the asset. Depreciation for this period is only calculated if the Basis of depreciation is Period (Asset Register Setup - Basis & Date Conventions tab). When the Basis of depreciation is Year, no depreciation is calculated for this year or period. If the Basis of depreciation is Life of asset, no depreciation is calculated. The Profit on disposal of an asset is calculated as: Sale amount less Net value of asset less Disposal cost. The Net value of the asset is the Cost of the asset less the Accumulated depreciation. The Disposal cost could be zero. If your Assets Register module is integrated to the General Ledger (General Ledger Integration), then the following entries are created for posting to the General Ledger for disposal in the Book value depreciation book:
If the asset was revalued during its lifetime (Asset Revaluation), then the following entry is also created:
|
||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Asset | Indicate the code of the asset you want to dispose of, or for which you want to calculate the disposal values. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Calculate | Select this to display the asset disposal details.
This enables you to view these details before you actually post them. This function is only enabled when you enter a Disposal quantity. In addition, a Disposal reason must be entered before the calculation can be run. You do not have to select this function before posting the disposal details. |
| Field | Description | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Asset disposal information | |||||
| Asset code | This indicates the code of the asset you entered. | ||||
| Description | This indicates the description of the asset. | ||||
| Asset quantity | This indicates the current quantity of the asset. | ||||
| Disposal quantity | Indicate the quantity of the asset you want to dispose
of or for which you want to calculate the disposal
values. To process a full disposal of the asset, you enter the Asset quantity total in this field. To process a partial disposal, you enter any non-negative value which is less that the Asset quantity. Decimals can be used. For example, you can enter 0.5 or 1.3. The disposal quantity cannot be zero or more than the Asset quantity. |
||||
| Disposal date |
Enter the date on which the asset was sold or disposed. This date must be within the current Assets Register period.
The default date is the period end date of the period in which your Assets Register module is currently running and not the current system's date. |
||||
| Disposal period | This will be calculated by the system according to the Disposal date. | ||||
| Disposal year | This will be calculated by the system according to the Disposal date. | ||||
| Disposal reason |
Enter a reason for the disposal of the asset. A valid reason for disposal code must be entered. Reason for disposal codes are maintained using the Asset Reasons for Disposal program. |
||||
| Comment |
Optionally enter free format comments relating to the disposal of the asset. For example, you could record to whom the asset was sold. |
||||
This pane displays all depreciation books currently held for the asset. You use this editable listview to enter the Disposal details.
When you select the Calculate function, the disposal details are displayed according to the Disposal quantity you entered.
For a partial disposal, the disposal depreciation is calculated as pro-rata for the partial disposal quantity. For example, if an asset has a quantity of 10 and you dispose of 1, then the program calculates the depreciation values as one tenth of the depreciation.

| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Book | This displays the depreciation books currently defined against the asset. |
| Disposal amount | Enter the amount that the asset was sold/disposed
of. For a partial disposal, this amount must be less than the asset value and indicates the value by which you want to change the asset value. |
| Cost of disposal |
Enter the cost (if any), directly related to the disposal of the asset. For example, the condition of sale of the asset may stipulate that you must pay for the transportation of the asset to the buyer's premises. This would be cost of disposal to you. The amount you enter in this field reduces the selling price of the asset. The value debited to the Asset Clearing account is the value entered in the Amount field less the value entered in the Cost of disposal field. |
| Disposal asset cost | Indicate the amount by which you want to change the asset cost. |
| Disposal depreciation this period | Indicate the amount by which you want to change the asset depreciation for the current period. |
| Disposal depreciation this year | Indicate the amount by which you want to change the asset depreciation for the current year. |
| Disposal accumulated depreciation | Indicate the amount by which you want to change the accumulated depreciation for the asset. |
| Disposal revaluation reserve | Enter the value in the Revaluation reserve account that
you want to dispose of. This only applies if the asset was
revalued (Asset Revaluation). For example, if you revalued the cost of the asset for 1000 to 1500, then you will have 500 in the Revaluation reserve account on your Balance sheet. If the asset quantity is 1 and you now dispose 0.5 of the asset (50%) then the disposal revaluation reserve is calculated as 250 (0.5 x 500), but can be changed. |
| Cost/cash price | This indicates the current cost value of the asset. This is changed by acquisitions processed (see Asset Acquisition). |
| Depreciation this year | This indicates the amount depreciation for the current year to date. |
| Accumulated depreciation | This indicates the total depreciation processed against the asset to date. |
| Current value | This indicates the current value of the asset. |

You cannot dispose of an asset that is defined as a master while it has one or more a sub assets attached to it (see Asset Master Sub-assets).
