Det verkar som att "asset disposal" kan användas närsomhelst under en tillgångs livstid, men här talar vi väl om saker som är mer eller mindre färdiga för skroten - "scrapping". Finns det någon bättre term för utrangering?

: I don't know; I see Chris' point, but I don't see why this can't be called "Disposals" -- a "disposal" is throwing something away, i.e. disposing of it.
