    You need to know

    At item P18 you include the termination values for other depreciating assets – including assets allocated to a low-value pool – that you stopped holding or using during the year (for example, assets sold, lost or destroyed).

    Generally, the termination value is the amount you receive or are deemed to receive in relation to the asset that you stopped holding or using. It includes the market value of any non-cash benefits such as goods and services you receive for the asset.

    For more information on termination value, refer to the publication Guide to depreciating assets 2003–04 (NAT 1996–6.2004).
