Amortization of capitalized difference in inventory
Explanation:
This presumes that the term "cambio" is in reality "bienes de cambio" (in the Spanish of Argentina), meaning "inventory" as an item on a balance sheet and has nothing to do with foreign currency differences.

I stand corrected: it is not activated but capitalized, so amortization can take place.
