The correct answer is: not depreciated.

Step-by-step explanation

According to PFRS 5, para 25, a non-current asset classified as held for sale or an asset which is part of a disposal group classified as held for sale is not depreciated or amortized.

 

Thus the correct answer is the second option; not depreciated.
