Carrying amount is used in AS 28. It simply means the value of your assets- depreciation. AS 28 says when value in use goes down from carrying amount then difference should be written off as impairment loss.

The term carrying amount is often used in place of book value. The carrying amount refers to the amounts that the company has on its books for an asset or a liability. For example, the carrying amount of a company’s truck is the cost of the truck minus the accumulated depreciation on the truck.
Carrying amount is the amount at which an asset is recognised in the balance sheet after deducting any accumulated depreciatoin and accumulated impairment losses thereon

Carrying cost
The continuing cost of owning, maintaining, and holding inventory. Warehouse, insurance costs, financing costs, pilferage, obsolescence, and spoilage are the major components of this cost. In CaseView, carrying costs (if relevant to the case under consideration ) could be entered as costs on the input screen for non-capital expenses. On the other hand, carrying cost savings or costs avoided could be entered directly as benefits/gains.
