Section 388-835-0560 - How must providers account for gains and losses on retired assets that are not replaced?(1) If a retired asset is not replaced the gain or loss on retirement must be spread over the actual life of the asset up to the date of retirement. However, a loss can only be spread if the provider has made a reasonable effort to recover at least the outstanding book value of the retired asset.(2) DSHS will calculate any difference between the actual reimbursements paid and the amount of reimbursement that should be paid after the gain or loss is spread. If the difference results from a gain DSHS must recover the difference from the provider. If the difference results from a loss the difference will be added to allowable costs when determining the settlement.Wash. Admin. Code § 388-835-0560
