Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment was $197,729 and $286,695 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, of which $171,749 and $193,065 was recorded as expense in the accompanying statement of operations, and $25,980 and $93,630 was capitalized to inventory, respectively. Most of the Company’s property and equipment is located in Argentina and gross asset costs and accumulated depreciation reported in US dollars are impacted by the devaluation of the Argentine peso relative to the U.S. dollar.

 

As of December 31, 2018, real estate development costs in the aggregate of $123,060, incurred in connection with twelve real estate lots that were completed during the period were transferred from property and equipment to real estate lots held for sale on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
