NWG // FINANCIAL INFORMATION //
THE GROUP
improvements are added to the cost and depreciated over the remaining useful life of the underlying asset .
Buildings 2-4 % Equipment , tools and installations 10-33 %
A tangible fixed asset is removed from the Group ´ s consolidated balance sheet upon sale or disposal , which occurs if the asset is not expected to generate any future economic benefits neither by being used nor being sold . Capital gains and losses are calculated as the difference between the consideration received and the asset ’ s carrying amount . Such gains and losses are recognized as other operating income or other operating costs in the period in which the asset is removed from the balance sheet . The assets ’ residual values , useful lives and methods of depreciation are reviewed at the end of each financial year and adjusted prospectively , if required .
If there are internal or external indications of a decline in the value of an asset , the asset is to be tested for impairment . An impairment loss is recognized if the recoverable amount of an asset is lower than its carrying amount . The recoverable amount is the higher of value in use and net realizable value . Impairment losses are recognized in the Group ’ s consolidated income statement in the period during which they occur . If an individual asset cannot be tested separately , as it is not possible to identify the fair value less selling expenses for the asset , the asset is allocated to a group of assets , known as a cash-generating unit , for which it is possible to identify separate future cash flows . To the extent that the underlying factors behind an impairment loss change in coming periods , the impairment loss will be reversed .
