Depreciation / amortisation of fixed assets
Explanation:
Your "inmovilizado" can include both tangible assets such as machinery, equipment and furniture etc, and intangible assets, such as patents, brand names etc.

If your "amortización" relates to tangible assets, it will be depreciation, and if it relates to intangible assets it will be "amortisation".

Hope this helps!
