The line 8 Capital Value Yr
End (outturn) value for 2004-05 has been recalculated from 1997-98 to outturn prices using year end
RPI for 2004-05 divided by year end RPI for 1997-98. This results in values which are consistent
with those published in RD 07/05. The method of indexation applied to values for previous years is
unchanged. They are calculated using RPI financial year end for 2004-05 divided by financial year average for 1997-98.
