On 24 June 2010, 5 days before the closure of 2009–10 financial year of "

co-ownership deal.[1] Benedetti signed a 4-year contract.[2] The deal made both club had an immediately selling profit on both players, a speculative future re-sell revenue and/or speculative players performance and a heavy cost in the future as amortization.[nb 1]

In June 2011, both players returned to their mother clubs with the same price (€1M for 50% rights), made that financial year in fact no amortization expense of €500,000 to deteriorate the situation but in the future did. That month, Chievo also swapped with other clubs as a trick to "fix" the financial situation.[nb 2]

Chievo failed to find a new buyer for Benedetti or may led to immediate negative financial impact.[nb 3] and Chievo chose to amortize the €2M in installments in the lifespan of his contract, despite it was impaired with the benefit (income or performance) generated by the player.

Notes

  1. ^ As Benedetti signed 4-year contract, he would cost Vicenza €500,000 a year to amortizate the transfer fee. On "profit" side, the deal created an intangible asset of €2M nominal accounting value (the player contract). On 30 June 2010, Chievo shareholder equity stood at €687,180, thus no need to recapitalisation (The club did re-capitalised for €250,000 in 2010–11 financial year) and fulfill the benchmark such as value of production.[1] However in the asset also included Daniele Rosania "worth" €1 million. Vicenza also had a positive net equity of €5,171,680 (based on book value of the asset, not real market value) on 30 June 2010 and without equity contribution in 2010–11 season.[2]
  2. Andrea Mandorlini (€600,000), as well as flopped Denis Tonucci
    .
  3. ^ Chievo found a buyer for flopped Nicolò Brighenti in 2011 but Chievo had to write-down €506,695 for his inflated previous accounting value in 2010–11 accounts
