The region may neutralise the depreciation allowance for equipment subsidies paid and the depreciation allowance for administrative and school buildings less the amount of the annual write-back of equipment subsidies received for the financing of these facilities, by means of an expenditure from the investment section and a revenue from the operating section.
The region proceeds with the annual write-back of equipment subsidies received and funds allocated to depreciable fixed assets, through an expenditure in the investment section and a revenue in the operating section. This write-back in the operating section is carried out at the same rate as the depreciation of the fixed asset for which the subsidy was received and relates to an annual share corresponding to the amount of this subsidy in relation to the depreciation period of the subsidised fixed asset. However, the regional school equipment grant is written back globally for an amount at most equal to the annual depreciation allowance for all school buildings and equipment.
