Fresh Start Adjustments
(14)    Reflects the fair value adjustment to the Company’s inventories due to the adoption of fresh start accounting. Raw materials were valued based on their replacement cost on the Effective Date; work-in-progress (“WIP”) and finished
good were valued based on consideration of inventory value created pre-Effective Date versus post-Effective Date. WIP and finished good methodologies consider the market approach and the cost approach. The values resulting from these methods were reconciled to appropriately allocate profit and expenses in the measurement of the inventory value created prior to the Effective Date.
(15)    Reflects the fair value adjustment to the Company’s short-term cloud assets due to the adoption of fresh start accounting. Cloud assets were valued using the indirect method of the cost approach

(17)    Reflects the fair value adjustment to property and equipment due to the adoption of fresh start accounting. Personal property was valued using the indirect method of the cost approach, whereby the reproduction cost for each asset or group of assets is estimated by indexing historical costs recorded in the fixed asset register based on asset type and acquisition date, then adjusted to account for physical deterioration and all forms of obsolescence. Real property (buildings and improvements) was valued using the direct method cost approach, while the sales comparison approach was used to value land and to test the reasonableness of the full property value. Finance lease assets were remeasured at the amount equal to the corresponding finance lease liabilities:

Where applicable, forecasts were allocated to the Power Devices and Materials product lines to separately value intangible assets for each. The following table summarizes the changes in the fair value of identified intangible assets:
(in millions of U.S. dollars)AmountEstimated Useful Life (in Years)
