During fiscal 2017 the Company identified fully depreciated assets that were no longer in use and should have been written off during fiscal 2017 or prior periods. The fiscal 2016 property at cost and accumulated depreciation was reduced by $825 million. There was no impact to net property at cost. This error was not material to our consolidated financial statements, however we have corrected amounts for the prior fiscal year to reflect the write off that should have been recorded at that time. Presented below is information related to carrying values of TJX’s long-lived assets by geographic location:
