Amortizations

"Amortiseringer" refers to the process of gradually reducing and spreading out the financial cost of an intangible asset over time. This term is used in the context of accounting and finance when discussing the gradual write-off of intangible rights or assets. Therefore, "Amortizations" is an appropriate translation for this term.

Example sentences in English:
1. The company recorded significant amortizations on its patent portfolio.
2. The amortizations of goodwill resulted in a decrease in the company's net income.
3. Amortizations on intangible assets are recognized as expenses in the income statement.

Danish term (edited): amortisering/er på immaterielle rettigheder

write-downs of / writing-down allowances on or for (intangible rights)

I agree that intangible assets (intangibles) are armortis/zed, rather than depreciate(d), though IMO amortis/zation pluralis/zes none too well (series or bouts of amortis/zation?.

So write-down or write-off needs to be factored in for journalistic/lay readers' rather than accounting consumption.
Example sentence:

The term amortization of intangibles describes the process of expensing costs associated with intangible assets, such as patents and trademarks, over the course of their life.

The write-off of the cost of an intangible asset is called _____. // Amortization is an accounting technique used to periodically *lower* the book value of a loan or an intangible asset over a set period of time.

Peer comment(s):

agree TechLawDC : Write-downs is much more likely that amortizations,

Tusen takk and thanks, TechLawDC, though techincally 'amortis/zation' is right for intangibles. PS I alwyws fancied myself as an Accountant and my own Accountant & Tax Adviser back in South London always fancied himself as a Barrister (Attorney).
