Accounting Policies
Items of property, plant and equipment are carried at amortized cost less accumulated depreciation and are depreciated over their respective estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis. In accordance with IAS 36 “Impairment of Assets,” impairment tests are performed whenever there is an indication of an impairment.
Subsequent costs of replacing part of an item of property, plant and equipment are capitalized provided it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to Vonovia and the cost can be estimated reliably.
The properties used by the company itself are subject to depreciation over a term of 50 years, with fixtures, furniture and office equipment subject to depreciation over a period of 3–13 years and technical equipment, plant and machinery over a period of 5–20 years.
Carrying amounts of owner-occupied properties amounting to € 92.0 million as of December 31, 2023 (December 31, 2022: € 79.5 million) are encumbered with land charges in favor of various lenders.
