Amortizations Explanation: "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. This is an AI-generated answer. |

amortisering/er på immaterielle rettigheder write-downs of / writing-down allowances on or for (intangible rights) Explanation: 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(s):
