English term or phrase: depreciation
The biggest part of the turnover and costs in the group are coming from the fully owned German subsidiary, XX GmbH. XX GmbH’s turnover as described above resulted to € 2.443.932,94 and the result was € -1.131.241,02. On the group level, one single elementary figure resulting to costs is also the planned depreciation in XX Oy that also became approx € 200.000 more than it was initially planned. This depreciation includes mostly past R&D work that has been financed by TEKES, a government owned financier and from demo-plants delivered to Germany as early as 2006. This depreciation resulted altogether € 407.698,01. The company does not have any financial instruments outside those regarded as normal business instruments.
