Since the heading is \'Fixed Assets\' (Vaste Activa) we are concerned here with \'capital expenditure\'/\'additions to fixed assets\', not \'investments\' as suggested by the Dutch text (investeringen). This word would only be translated as \'investments\' in an English-language annual report/accounts in the context of \'Equity Investments\' and not in the context of additions to fixed assets. It follows that any cessation of ownership in fixed assets would be translated as \'disposals\' and not \'divestments\' as suggested by Sanmar. |
