Those have been listed at estimated values less full depreciation for a book value of zero.

In short, the trucks are generally old pieces of equipment and beyond the depreciable life, yet still deemed useful. One truck and one jet ski were disposed of in 2010 and these funds helped to purchase a used truck which will require additional work to place in service.13 breathing units were purchased from another local fire department. These were bought for $8,000, a first installment was paid and an agreement was made to payoff the balance when funds were available.”
