Losing a Camera on a Bus for a Company

Question

I lost a camera for a company on a bus. The camera is not new and has even been repaired. Do I need to pay the full amount, and if so, should I pay the current value of the camera or the price it was when purchased, as the price is different?

Answer

Hello 

According to the current price of the camera in its present condition, meaning 'second hand' after repair.

[It is quite possible that the second-hand price today will be higher than the first-hand price when it was purchased].
