      <Paragraph>An adjustment transaction makes changes to asset values that can
		no longer be directly changed after the asset is capitalized. LN saves the new value
		to the asset and records the former value of that field for historical
		purposes. This allows you to perform an asset inquiry to view all the changes
		made to the asset throughout its life.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph>You cannot adjust an asset after it has been removed from
		capitalization or after it has been disposed. You can adjust values associated
		with the asset or values associated with specific books related to the asset.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph>You enter a date for each adjustment to determine when the
		change takes effect, and a reason code that explains why you made the
		adjustment. Although you cannot adjust the account directly, you can obtain
		account information.</Paragraph>
      <Note>
         <SectionTitle>Note</SectionTitle>
         <Paragraph>The effective date for an asset adjustment cannot be prior to
		  the asset's in-service date.</Paragraph>

         <ListIntro>In addition to recording adjustments on an asset basis, there
		  are two other types of adjustments you can make:</ListIntro>
         <ListItem>
            <Emphasis>Mass adjustments</Emphasis>, to make a similar change
		  to a large number of assets at once.</ListItem>
         <ListItem>
            <Emphasis>Vintage/group account adjustments</Emphasis>, to
		  adjust assets subject to ADR or MACRS group tax reporting, by adjusting the
		  vintage/group account to which they belong.</ListItem>
