agree  Michael Bailey: would agree that it is salary expenses but Abfertigung usual means severance IIRC

agree  Michael Bailey: the Dotierung may well mean that the amount paid per annum is actually paid monthly.

disagree  Terry Moran: Not reserves, surely? Aren't provisions different?
50 mins

neutral  RobinB: Are those US GAAP reserves, Ted? And surely allocation "to", not of.

agree  RobinB: OK, but I think you should insert "additions to" the provisions (it's not the provisions themselves, but the amounts transferred to the provisions and recognised in the income statement).

  -> You're right, but it is necessary to say so? Most staff costs (i.e. salaries) could only relate to the year in question, and by implication so would these others. I wouldn't fight about it, though.
