Depreciation and amortization are accounting methods used to allocate the cost of these assets over their useful lives, reflecting their gradual decline in value.
Specifically, the total cost of Engel & Volkers' office equipment, furniture and fixtures, and leasehold improvements amounted to $1,851,999 in 2023.
