Explanation of other changes in net assets or fund balances Part XI line 9 The organization did a thorough review of its fixed assets, which are mainly their locomotives and train cars, along with some leasehold improvements. In the past, valuing these items was difficult, due to the age of many of these trains, some of which are very old. The organization reviewed the values of all their trains, and came to the conclusion that a good portion of them should be fully depreciated by now. Thus, the change in net assets depicts many of the older trains now being fully depreciated, with accumulated depreciation showing a large jump from fiscal year 2022. Thus, the carrying value of the trains on the Statement of Financial Position has dropped dramatically, due to this large adjustment in accumulated depreciation.
