nedskrivning


Explanation:
I dette tilfælde, når der er tale om værdiforringelse, vil jeg tro, du simpelthen kan oversætte med "nedskrivning" jvf. denne forklaring fra Investopedia:
"Non-cash charges are typically against the depreciation, amortization, and depletion accounts on a company's balance sheet. Companies take these charges against earnings due to extraordinary circumstances such as accounting policy changes or significant depreciation of asset's market value.

Any sort of charge will usually result in lower earnings in the period when the charge was made. Sometimes also referred to as a write down. " (http://www.investopedia.com/terms/n/noncashcharge.asp)

En nedskrivning er jo netop en reduktion af et aktivs regnskabsmæssige værdi i forbindelse med særlige omstændigheder eller test for værdiforringelse. Det er selvfølgelig også en form for "ikke-likvid post", som Anne foreslår, men det kan jo dække over alle poster, der ikke involverer ind- eller udbetalinger.

Example sentence(s):
  • FRS 3 var en gennemgribende revision af den regnskabsmæssige behandling af virksomhedssammenslutninger, hvor man skiftede fra afskrivning af goodwill til udelukkende at nedskrive goodwill ved værdiforringelse.
  • Goodwill testes årligt for værdiforringelse og nedskrives til en eventuelt lavere værdi.
