Plant and machinery and furniture and fittings were revalued at 1 April 1996 based on the estimated current replacement cost of the assets, adjusted for service potential. Following the introduction of FRS 15: Tangible Fixed Assets, Âé¶¹Éç World Service has retained these revalued assets at their valuation as adjusted for depreciation. Âé¶¹Éç World Service does not plan to revalue these assets on an ongoing basis.
