Fields

Equipment number

Displays the unique number of the equipment you are adding or updating.

Replacement value

Displays the amount it would cost to replace this equipment.  This information is useful if the equipment is lost or damaged.

 

Actual cash value

Displays the actual cash value of the equipment by subtracting depreciation from the replacement value.

 

Example: You purchased a wet saw for $2,000 five years ago and it was damaged beyond repair.  The wet saw has a depreciation life of 10 years (120 months).  A similar wet saw today costs $2,500.  The destroyed wet saw had 50% (5 years) of its life remaining, so the actual cash value equals $2,500 (replacement cost) times 50% (useful life remaining) or $1,250.
