And, furthermore, since 'financial prudence' of this kind continued to be exercised through the slump by those great corporations which were still in a position to afford it, it offered a serious obstacle to early recovery.

而且，由于这种“金融谨慎” 在经济衰退期间继续由那些仍然有能力负担得起的大公司行使， 它为早日复苏提供了严重的障碍。

If the effect of this is aggravated by 'financial prudence', i.e. by its being thought advisable to 'write off' the initial cost more rapidly than the equipment actually wears out, the cumulative result may be very serious indeed.

如果这种影响因“财务审慎”而加剧，即认为“注销”初始成本比设备实际磨损更快是可取的，那么累积结果可能确实非常严重。
