Capital Disposal

This scenario will cover process for Capital Disposal.

 

Example: There is an existing Bus Shelter which is due for renewal.

 

The old shelter is removed and is replaced with brand new bus shelter.

 

Council has not spent any money for the renewal of this shelter as the project was funded by State Government.

 

The new shelter is now no longer owned by Council but the Council still has the maintenance responsibility.

 

So the current value of the bus shelter has to be disposed.

 

The asset still stays active in the asset register but without any financials.

 

To deal with such scenarios, please follow the steps outlined below.

1. Select Asset

The current written down value of the Shelter is $7,612.66 as below.
