## Machine-generated topic summary

ASC 360 covers the accounting for property, plant, and equipment: capitalizing cost, allocating it to periods through systematic and rational depreciation, testing long-lived assets for impairment, and reporting assets to be disposed of. The general guidance in 360-10 supplies the core model — depreciation as a process of allocation, not valuation (360-10-35-3 through 35-4); a two-step held-and-used impairment test triggered by indicators (360-10-35-21) that compares carrying amount to undiscounted future cash flows and then writes the asset group down to fair value with no restoration (360-10-35-17, 35-20); and held-for-sale classification under the six criteria in 360-10-45-9, with measurement at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell and no depreciation (360-10-35-43). Layered on top are industry subtopics that tailor capitalization, depreciation, presentation, and impairment inputs for airlines, agriculture, cable television, mining, oil and gas, insurance, health care, regulated utilities, real estate projects, CIRAs, employee benefit plans, and not-for-profits. Note also that two subtopics are now empty shells — 360-20 (real estate sales, superseded by ASC 606/610-20/842-40) and 360-910 — and may not be cited as authoritative support.

## ASC 360-10: Property, Plant, and Equipment — Overall

### Machine-generated study aids

{
  "summary": "ASC 360-10 governs the accounting for property, plant, and equipment and, in separate \"Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets\" Subsections, the impairment testing of long-lived assets held and used and the measurement, presentation, and disclosure of long-lived assets to be disposed of. Cost (including capitalized interest) is allocated to periods through systematic and rational depreciation (360-10-35-4). A held-and-used asset group is written down only if its carrying amount fails an undiscounted cash flow recoverability test, and then only down to fair value (360-10-35-17); held-for-sale assets are measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell and are not depreciated (360-10-35-43).",
  "key_points": [
    "Depreciation is a systematic and rational allocation of cost less salvage over the asset's estimated useful life—a process of allocation, not valuation (360-10-35-3 through 35-4); annuity methods are unacceptable and tax ACRS lives may not be used unless within a reasonable range of useful life (360-10-35-9, 35-10).",
    "A held-and-used long-lived asset (asset group) is tested for recoverability only when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount may not be recoverable (the six indicators in 360-10-35-21); the two-step test compares carrying amount to undiscounted expected future cash flows, and an impairment loss is measured as carrying amount less fair value (360-10-35-17).",
    "Assets are grouped at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of other assets and liabilities (360-10-35-23); the impairment loss reduces only long-lived assets, allocated pro rata on relative carrying amounts but not below an individually determinable fair value (360-10-35-28).",
    "The adjusted carrying amount after impairment becomes the new cost basis, depreciated over the remaining useful life, and restoration of a previously recognized impairment loss is prohibited (360-10-35-20).",
    "Cash flow estimates cover the remaining useful life of the primary asset of the group (which cannot be land or a nonamortized intangible), exclude interest charges, include expenditures maintaining existing service potential, and exclude capital expenditures that increase service potential (360-10-35-29, 35-31 through 35-34).",
    "All six criteria in 360-10-45-9 (management commitment, available for immediate sale, active program to locate a buyer, sale probable within one year, active marketing at a reasonable price, unlikely plan changes) must be met for held-for-sale classification; such assets are measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell, are not depreciated, and subsequent gains are limited to cumulative losses previously recognized (360-10-35-40, 35-43).",
    "Assets to be disposed of other than by sale (abandonment, exchange at recorded amount, spinoff) remain classified as held and used until disposed of (360-10-45-15), and disclosures about impairments (360-10-50-2) and disposals, including individually significant components (360-10-50-3, 50-3A), are required."

  "audience_level": "intermediate",
  "student_note": "This is the workhorse impairment model for tangible long-lived assets and a classic exam trap: candidates often forget that step one uses UNDISCOUNTED cash flows (so no loss is recorded if they exceed carrying amount, even if fair value is far lower), that the loss is measured against fair value, and that impairments here can never be reversed—unlike the held-for-sale model, where subsequent recoveries can be recognized up to cumulative losses previously recognized.",

For long-lived assets disposed of or classified as held for sale, different presentation and disclosures are required depending on the nature of the disposal. If the long-lived assets are a significant component of an entity, more extensive disclosures are required. Additionally, if the component of an entity meets the definition of discontinued operation in paragraph [205-20-45-1B](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/205/20/#205-20-45-1B), an entity shall refer to Subtopic 205-20 for the presentation and disclosure requirements for discontinued operations (see the flowchart in paragraph [360-10-55-18A](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-55-18A) for an illustration).

The guidance in the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets Subsections applies to the following transactions and activities:

1.  a
    
    Except as indicated in (b) and the following paragraph, all of the transactions and activities related to recognized long-lived assets of an entity to be held and used or to be disposed of, including:
    
    1.  1
        
        [Right-of-use assets](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/r/#right-of-use-asset "An asset that represents a lessee's right to use an underlying asset for the lease term.") of [lessees](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/l/#lessee "An entity that enters into a contract to obtain the right to use an underlying asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.")
        
    2.  2
        
        Long-lived assets of lessors subject to operating leases
        
    3.  3
        
        Proved oil and gas properties that are being accounted for using the successful-efforts method of accounting
        
    4.  4
        
        Long-term prepaid assets.
        
2.  b
    
    The following transactions and activities related to assets and liabilities that are considered part of an [asset group](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/a/#asset-group "An asset group is the unit of accounting for a long-lived asset or assets to be held and used, which represents the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets and liabilities.") or a [disposal group](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/d/#disposal-group "A disposal group for a long-lived asset or assets to be disposed of by sale or otherwise represents assets to be disposed of together as a group in a single transaction and liabilities directly associated with those assets that will be transferred in the transaction. A disposal group may include a discontinued operation along with other assets and liabilities that are not part of the discontinued operation."):
    
    1.  1
        
        If a long-lived asset (or assets) is part of a group that includes other assets and liabilities not covered by the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets Subsections, the guidance in the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets Subsections applies to the group. In those situations, the unit of accounting for the long-lived asset is its group. For a long-lived asset or assets to be held and used, that group is referred to as an asset group. For a long-lived asset or assets to be disposed of by sale or otherwise, that group is referred to as a disposal group. Examples of liabilities included in a disposal group are legal obligations that transfer with a long-lived asset, such as certain environmental obligations, and obligations that, for business reasons, a potential buyer would prefer to settle when assumed as part of a group, such as warranty obligations that relate to an acquired customer base.
        
    2.  2
        
        The guidance in the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets Subsections does not change generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) applicable to those other individual assets (such as accounts receivable and inventory) and liabilities (such as accounts payable, long-term debt, and asset retirement obligations) not covered by the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets Subsections that are included in such groups.

    The acquisition from a lessor of the unconditional right to own and possess, at the end of the lease term, an asset subject to a lease
    
2.  b
    
    The acquisition of the right to receive all, or a portion, of the proceeds from the sale of a leased asset at the end of the lease term.

At the date the rights in the preceding paragraph are acquired, both transactions involve a right to receive, at the end of the lease term, all, or a portion, of any future benefit to be derived from the leased asset and shall be accounted for as the acquisition of an asset. Both transactions are referred to as the acquisition of an interest in the residual value of a leased asset.

Paragraph [835-20-05-1](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/835/20/#835-20-05-1) states that the historical cost of acquiring an asset includes the costs necessarily incurred to bring it to the condition and location necessary for its intended use. As indicated in that paragraph, if an asset requires a period of time in which to carry out the activities necessary to bring it to that condition and location, the interest cost incurred during that period as a result of expenditures for the asset is a part of the historical cost of acquiring the asset.

See the glossary for a definition of [activities](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/a/#activities "The term activities is to be construed broadly. It encompasses physical construction of the asset. In addition, it includes all the steps required to prepare the asset for its intended use. For example, it includes administrative and technical activities during the preconstruction stage, such as the development of plans or the process of obtaining permits from governmental authorities. It also includes activities undertaken after construction has begun in order to overcome unforeseen obstacles, such as technical problems, labor disputes, or litigation.") necessary to bring an asset to the condition and location necessary for its intended use.

The cost of a productive facility is one of the costs of the services it renders during its useful economic life. Generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) require that this cost be spread over the expected useful life of the facility in such a way as to allocate it as equitably as possible to the periods during which services are obtained from the use of the facility. This procedure is known as depreciation accounting, a system of accounting which aims to distribute the cost or other basic value of tangible capital assets, less salvage (if any), over the estimated useful life of the unit (which may be a group of assets) in a systematic and rational manner. It is a process of allocation, not of valuation.

The declining-balance method is an example of one of the methods that meet the requirements of being systematic and rational. If the expected productivity of the asset or ability of the asset to generate revenue is relatively greater during the earlier years of its life, or maintenance charges tend to increase during later years, the declining-balance method may provide the most satisfactory allocation of cost. That conclusion also applies to other methods, including the sum-of-the-years'-digits method, that produce substantially similar results.

An entity acquiring an interest in the residual value of any leased asset, irrespective of the classification of the related lease by the lessor, shall not recognize increases to the asset's estimated value over the remaining term of the related lease, and the asset shall be reported at no more than its acquisition cost until sale or disposition. If it is subsequently determined that the fair value of the residual value of a leased asset has declined below the carrying amount of the acquired interest and that decline is other than temporary, the asset shall be written down to fair value, and the amount of the write-down shall be recognized as a loss. That fair value becomes the asset's new carrying amount, and the asset shall not be increased for any subsequent increase in its fair value before its sale or disposition.

There are unique requirements of accounting for the [impairment](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/i/#impairment "Impairment is the condition that exists when the carrying amount of a long-lived asset (asset group) exceeds its fair value.") or disposal of long-lived assets to be held and used or to be disposed of. Although this guidance deals with matters which may lead to the ultimate disposition of assets, it is included in this Subsection because it describes the measurement and classification of assets to be held and used and assets held for disposal before actual disposition and derecognition. See the [Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets Subsection](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#40-derecognition) of Section 360-10-40 for a discussion of assets or asset groups for which disposition has taken place in an exchange or distribution to owners.

An impairment loss shall be recognized only if the carrying amount of a long-lived asset ([asset group](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/a/#asset-group "An asset group is the unit of accounting for a long-lived asset or assets to be held and used, which represents the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets and liabilities.")) is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value. The carrying amount of a long-lived asset (asset group) is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset (asset group). That assessment shall be based on the carrying amount of the asset (asset group) at the date it is tested for recoverability, whether in use (see paragraph [360-10-35-33](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-35-33)) or under development (see paragraph [360-10-35-34](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-35-34)).

    A significant adverse change in the extent or manner in which a long-lived asset (asset group) is being used or in its physical condition
    
3.  c
    
    A significant adverse change in legal factors or in the business climate that could affect the value of a long-lived asset (asset group), including an adverse action or assessment by a regulator
    
4.  d
    
    An accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or construction of a long-lived asset (asset group)
    
5.  e
    
    A current-period operating or cash flow loss combined with a history of operating or cash flow losses or a projection or forecast that demonstrates continuing losses associated with the use of a long-lived asset (asset group)
    
6.  f
    
    A current expectation that, more likely than not, a long-lived asset (asset group) will be sold or otherwise disposed of significantly before the end of its previously estimated useful life. The term _more likely than not_ refers to a level of likelihood that is more than 50 percent.

and [250-10-50-4](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/250/10/#250-10-50-4) address the accounting for changes in estimates, including changes in the method of depreciation, amortization, and depletion. Paragraphs

[350-30-35-1 through 35-5](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/350/30/#350-30-35-1)

address the determination of the useful life of an intangible asset. Any revision to the remaining useful life of a long-lived asset resulting from that review also shall be considered in developing estimates of future cash flows used to test the asset (asset group) for recoverability (see paragraphs

[360-10-35-31 through 35-32](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-35-31)

). However, any change in the accounting method for the asset resulting from that review shall be made only after applying this Subtopic.

For purposes of recognition and measurement of an impairment loss, a long-lived asset or assets shall be grouped with other assets and liabilities at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities. However, an impairment loss, if any, that results from applying this Subtopic shall reduce only the carrying amount of a long-lived asset or assets of the group in accordance with paragraph [360-10-35-28](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-35-28).

In limited circumstances, a long-lived asset (for example, a corporate headquarters facility) may not have identifiable cash flows that are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities and of other asset groups.

In limited circumstances, an asset group will include all assets and liabilities of the entity. For example, the cost of operating assets such as corporate headquarters or centralized research facilities may be funded by revenue-producing activities at lower levels of the entity. Accordingly, in limited circumstances, the lowest level of identifiable cash flows that are largely independent of other asset groups may be the entity level.

Goodwill shall be included in an asset group to be tested for impairment under this Subtopic only if the asset group is or includes a reporting unit. Goodwill shall not be included in a lower-level asset group that includes only part of a reporting unit. Estimates of future cash flows used to test that lower-level asset group for recoverability shall not be adjusted for the effect of excluding goodwill from the group. The term _reporting unit_ is defined in Topic 350 as the same level as or one level below an [operating segment](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/o/#operating-segment "A component of a public entity. See Section 280-10-50 for additional guidance on the definition of an operating segment."). That Topic requires that goodwill be tested for impairment at the reporting unit level.

Estimates of future cash flows used to test the recoverability of a long-lived asset (asset group) shall incorporate the entity's own assumptions about its use of the asset (asset group) and shall consider all available evidence. The assumptions used in developing those estimates shall be reasonable in relation to the assumptions used in developing other information used by the entity for comparable periods, such as internal budgets and projections, accruals related to incentive compensation plans, or information communicated to others. However, if alternative courses of action to recover the carrying amount of a long-lived asset (asset group) are under consideration or if a range is estimated for the amount of possible future cash flows associated with the likely course of action, the likelihood of those possible outcomes shall be considered. A probability-weighted approach may be useful in considering the likelihood of those possible outcomes.

Estimates of future cash flows used to test the recoverability of a long-lived asset (asset group) shall be made for the remaining useful life of the asset (asset group) to the entity. The remaining useful life of an asset group shall be based on the remaining useful life of the primary asset of the group. For purposes of this Subtopic, the primary asset is the principal long-lived tangible asset being depreciated or intangible asset being amortized that is the most significant component asset from which the asset group derives its cash-flow-generating capacity. The primary asset of an asset group therefore cannot be land or an intangible asset not being amortized.

Factors that an entity generally shall consider in determining whether a long-lived asset is the primary asset of an asset group include the following:

1.  a
    
    Whether other assets of the group would have been acquired by the entity without the asset
    
2.  b

3.  c
    
    The remaining useful life of the asset relative to other assets of the group. If the primary asset is not the asset of the group with the longest remaining useful life, estimates of future cash flows for the group shall assume the sale of the group at the end of the remaining useful life of the primary asset.

The service potential of a long-lived asset (asset group) encompasses its remaining useful life, cash-flow-generating capacity, and for tangible assets, physical output capacity. Those estimates shall include cash flows associated with future expenditures necessary to maintain the existing service potential of a long-lived asset (asset group), including those that replace the service potential of component parts of a long-lived asset (for example, the roof of a building) and component assets other than the primary asset of an asset group. Those estimates shall exclude cash flows associated with future capital expenditures that would increase the service potential of a long-lived asset (asset group).

Costs to sell are the incremental direct costs to transact a sale, that is, the costs that result directly from and are essential to a sale transaction and that would not have been incurred by the entity had the decision to sell not been made. Those costs include broker commissions, legal and title transfer fees, and closing costs that must be incurred before legal title can be transferred.

A long-lived asset (disposal group) classified as held for sale shall be measured at the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. If the asset (disposal group) is newly acquired, the carrying amount of the asset (disposal group) shall be established based on its fair value less cost to sell at the acquisition date. A long-lived asset shall not be depreciated (amortized) while it is classified as held for sale.

For purposes of this Subtopic, a long-lived asset to be abandoned is disposed of when it ceases to be used. If an entity commits to a plan to abandon a long-lived asset before the end of its previously estimated useful life, depreciation estimates shall be revised in accordance with paragraphs

[250-10-45-17 through 45-20](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/250/10/#250-10-45-17)

Because the continued use of a long-lived asset demonstrates the presence of service potential, only in unusual situations would the fair value of a long-lived asset to be abandoned be zero while it is being used. When a long-lived asset ceases to be used, the carrying amount of the asset should equal its salvage value, if any. The salvage value of the asset shall not be reduced to an amount less than zero.

A long-lived asset (disposal group) to be sold shall be classified as held for sale in the period in which all of the following criteria are met:

1.  a
    
    Management, having the authority to approve the action, commits to a plan to sell the asset (disposal group).
    
2.  b
    
    The asset (disposal group) is available for immediate sale in its present condition subject only to terms that are usual and customary for sales of such assets (disposal groups). (See Examples 5 through 7 \[paragraphs
    
    [360-10-55-37 through 55-41](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-55-37)
    
    \], which illustrate when that criterion would be met.)
    
3.  c
    
    An active program to locate a buyer and other actions required to complete the plan to sell the asset (disposal group) have been initiated.
    
4.  d
    
    The sale of the asset (disposal group) is probable, and transfer of the asset (disposal group) is expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale, within one year, except as permitted by paragraph [360-10-45-11](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-45-11). (See Example 8 \[paragraph [360-10-55-43](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-55-43)\], which illustrates when that criterion would be met.) The term [probable](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/p/#probable "The future event or events are likely to occur.") refers to a future sale that is likely to occur.
    
5.  e
    
    The asset (disposal group) is being actively marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable in relation to its current fair value. The price at which a long-lived asset (disposal group) is being marketed is indicative of whether the entity currently has the intent and ability to sell the asset (disposal group). A market price that is reasonable in relation to fair value indicates that the asset (disposal group) is available for immediate sale, whereas a market price in excess of fair value indicates that the asset (disposal group) is not available for immediate sale.
    
6.  f
    
    Actions required to complete the plan indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan will be made or that the plan will be withdrawn.

Events or circumstances beyond an entity's control may extend the period required to complete the sale of a long-lived asset (disposal group) beyond one year. An exception to the one-year requirement in paragraph [360-10-45-9(d)](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-45-9) shall apply in the following situations in which such events or circumstances arise:

1.  a
    
    If at the date an entity commits to a plan to sell a long-lived asset (disposal group) the entity reasonably expects that others (not a buyer) will impose conditions on the transfer of the asset (group) that will extend the period required to complete the sale and both of the following conditions are met:
    
    1.  1
        
        Actions necessary to respond to those conditions cannot be initiated until after a [firm purchase commitment](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/f/#firm-purchase-commitment "A firm purchase commitment is an agreement with an unrelated party, binding on both parties and usually legally enforceable, that meets both of the following conditions: It specifies all significant terms, including the price and timing of the transaction. It includes a disincentive for nonperformance that is sufficiently large to make performance probable.") is obtained.
        
    2.  2
        
        A firm purchase commitment is probable within one year. (See Example 9 \[paragraph [360-10-55-44](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-55-44)\], which illustrates that situation.)
        
2.  b
    
    If an entity obtains a firm purchase commitment and, as a result, a buyer or others unexpectedly impose conditions on the transfer of a long-lived asset (disposal group) previously classified as held for sale that will extend the period required to complete the sale and both of the following conditions are met:
    
    1.  1
        
        Actions necessary to respond to the conditions have been or will be timely initiated.
        
    2.  2
        
        A favorable resolution of the delaying factors is expected. (See Example 10 \[paragraph [360-10-55-46](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-55-46)\], which illustrates that situation.)
        
3.  c
    
    If during the initial one-year period, circumstances arise that previously were considered unlikely and, as a result, a long-lived asset (disposal group) previously classified as held for sale is not sold by the end of that period and all of the following conditions are met:
    
    1.  1
        
        During the initial one-year period the entity initiated actions necessary to respond to the change in circumstances.
        
    2.  2
        
        The asset (group) is being actively marketed at a price that is reasonable given the change in circumstances.
        
    3.  3
        
        The criteria in paragraph [360-10-45-9](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-45-9) are met. (See Example 11 \[paragraph [360-10-55-48](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-55-48)\], which illustrates that situation.)

If the criteria in paragraph [360-10-45-9](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-45-9) are met after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued (as discussed in Section 855-10-25), a long-lived asset shall continue to be classified as held and used in those financial statements when issued or when available to be issued. In addition, information required by paragraph [205-20-50-1(a)](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/205/20/#205-20-50-1) shall be disclosed in the notes to financial statements. If the asset (asset group) is tested for recoverability (on a held-and-used basis) as of the balance sheet date, the estimates of future cash flows used in that test shall consider the likelihood of possible outcomes that existed at the balance sheet date, including the assessment of the likelihood of the future sale of the asset. That assessment made as of the balance sheet date shall not be revised for a decision to sell the asset after the balance sheet date. Because it is difficult to separate the benefit of hindsight when assessing conditions that existed at a prior date, it is important that judgments about those conditions, the need to test an asset for recoverability, and the application of a recoverability test be made and documented together with supporting evidence on a timely basis. An impairment loss, if any, to be recognized shall be measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset (asset group) exceeds its fair value at the balance sheet date.

For environmental exit costs that have not been recognized as a liability for accounting purposes, whether those environmental exit costs shall be included in the undiscounted expected future cash flows used to test a long-lived asset for recoverability under this Subtopic depends on management's intent with respect to the asset. Pursuant to this Subtopic, if management's intent contemplates alternative courses of action to recover the carrying amount of the asset or if a range is estimated for the amount of possible future cash flows, the likelihood of those possible outcomes shall be considered. Examples of management's intent and the corresponding treatment of the environmental exit costs in this Subtopic's recoverability test are described below. (Environmental remediation costs discussed in certain of these cases refer to environmental remediation costs that have not yet been recognized as a liability pursuant to Subtopic 410-30.) This paragraph illustrates the guidance in paragraphs

Management intends to operate the asset for at least the asset's remaining depreciable life, the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows expected from the asset's use during that period exceeds the asset's carrying amount including any associated goodwill, and management has no reason to believe that the asset's eventual disposition will result in a net cash outflow.

Management expects to operate the asset indefinitely and has the ability to do so, the asset is generating positive cash flows, management's best information indicates that the asset will continue to be profitable in the future, and there are no known constraints to the asset's economic life. This Subtopic's recoverability test shall include the future cash outflows for repairs, maintenance, and capital expenditures necessary to obtain the future cash inflows expected to be generated by the asset based on its existing service potential.

The asset has a finite economic life, but environmental remediation costs will only be incurred if the asset is sold or abandoned. At the end of the asset's life, management intends either to close the asset permanently because the costs of remediating the asset exceed the proceeds that likely would be received if the asset were sold or, alternatively, to idle the asset by reducing production to a minimal or nominal amount. (Although the environmental remediation costs are excluded from this Subtopic's recoverability test, the recoverability test shall incorporate the entity's own assumptions about its use of the asset. That is, the recoverability test shall consider the likelihood of the alternative courses of action \[either closing or idling the asset\] and the resulting cash flows associated with those alternative courses.)

Management expects to sell the asset in the future, and the asset's sale will not require the environmental remediation costs to be incurred. (Although the environmental remediation costs are excluded from this Subtopic's recoverability test, the fair value of the asset is likely to be affected by the existence of those costs. The diminished fair value shall be considered in estimating the cash flows expected to arise from the eventual sale of the asset.)

Management expects to take a future action related to the asset that may cause the environmental remediation costs to be incurred. However, uncertainties or inconsistencies exist in how the related laws or regulatory requirements are applied. Management estimates, based on the weight of the available evidence, a 60 percent chance that the remediation costs will not be incurred and a 40 percent chance that those costs will be incurred. Pursuant to this Subtopic, other situations may exist in which cash flows are estimated using a single set or best estimate of cash flows.

The asset has a current period cash flow loss from operations combined with a projection or forecast that anticipates continuing losses. Management expects the asset to achieve profitability in the future but uncertainty exists about management's ability to fund the future cash outflows up to the time that net cash inflows are expected from the asset's use.

An entity owns a manufacturing facility that together with other assets is tested for recoverability as a group. In addition to long-lived assets (Assets A-D), the asset group includes inventory measured using first-in, first-out (FIFO), which is reported at the lower of cost and [net realizable value](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/n/#net-realizable-value "Estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation.") in accordance with Topic 330, and other current assets and liabilities that are not covered by this Subtopic. The $2.75 million aggregate carrying amount of the asset group is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value by $600,000.

If the fair value of an individual long-lived asset of an asset group is determinable without undue cost and effort and exceeds the adjusted carrying amount of that asset after an impairment loss is allocated initially, the excess impairment loss initially allocated to that asset would be reallocated to the other long-lived assets of the group. For example, if the fair value of Asset C is $822,000, the excess impairment loss of $100,000 initially allocated to that asset (based on its adjusted carrying amount of $722,000) would be reallocated as shown below to the other long-lived assets of the group on a pro rata basis using the relative adjusted carrying amounts of those assets.

As of December 31, 20X2, a manufacturing facility with a carrying amount of $48 million is tested for recoverability. At that date, 2 courses of action to recover the carrying amount of the facility are under consideration—sell in 2 years or sell in 10 years (at the end of its remaining useful life).

The possible cash flows associated with each of those courses of action are $41 million and $48.7 million, respectively. They are developed based on entity-specific assumptions about future sales (volume and price) and costs in varying scenarios that consider the likelihood that existing customer relationships will continue, changes in economic (market) conditions, and other relevant factors.

The alternatives of whether to sell or use an asset are not necessarily independent of each other. In many situations, after estimating the possible future cash flows relating to those potential courses of action, an entity might select the course of action that results in a significantly higher estimate of possible future cash flows. In that situation, the entity generally would use the estimates of possible future cash flows relating only to that course of action in computing future cash flows. As shown, the expected cash flows are $44.1 million (undiscounted). Therefore, the carrying amount of the facility of $48 million would not be recoverable.

The following table shows the computation of the expected present value; that is, the sum of the present values of the expected cash flows by year, each discounted at a risk-free interest rate determined from the yield curve for U.S. Treasury instruments. In this Case, a market risk premium is included in the expected cash flows; that is, the cash flows are certainty equivalent cash flows. As shown, the expected present value is $42.3 million, which is less than the carrying amount of $48 million. In accordance with paragraph [360-10-35-17](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-35-17) the entity would recognize an impairment loss of $5.7 million.

An entity engaged in mining and selling phosphate estimates future cash flows from its commercially minable phosphate deposits in order to test the recoverability of the asset group that includes the mine and related long-lived assets (plant and equipment). Deposits from the mined rock must be processed in order to extract the phosphate. As the active mining area expands along the geological structure of the mine, a new processing plant is constructed near the production area. Depending on the size of the mine, extracting the minable deposits may require building numerous processing plants over the life of the mine. In testing the recoverability of the mine and related long-lived assets, the estimates of future cash flows from its commercially minable phosphate deposits would include cash flows associated with future expenditures necessary to build all of the required processing plants.

Varying facts and circumstances will inevitably justify different groupings of assets for impairment review. While grouping at the lowest level for which there are identifiable cash flows for recognition and measurement of an impairment loss is understood, determining that lowest level requires considerable judgment.

. In this Example, an entity operates a bus entity that provides service under contract with a municipality that requires minimum service on each of five separate routes. Assets devoted to serving each route and the cash flows from each route are discrete. One of the routes operates at a significant deficit that results in the inability to recover the carrying amounts of the dedicated assets. The five bus routes would be an appropriate level at which to group assets to test for and measure impairment because the entity does not have the option to curtail any one bus route.

An entity commits to a plan to sell its headquarters building and has initiated actions to locate a buyer. The following illustrate situations in which the criterion in paragraph [360-10-45-9(b)](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-45-9) would or would not be met:

1.  a
    
    The entity intends to transfer the building to a buyer after it vacates the building. The time necessary to vacate the building is usual and customary for sales of such assets. The criterion in paragraph [360-10-45-9(b)](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-45-9) would be met at the plan commitment date.
    
2.  b
    
    The entity will continue to use the building until construction of a new headquarters building is completed. The entity does not intend to transfer the existing building to a buyer until after construction of the new building is completed (and it vacates the existing building). The delay in the timing of the transfer of the existing building imposed by the entity (seller) demonstrates that the building is not available for immediate sale. The criterion in paragraph [360-10-45-9(b)](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-45-9) would not be met until construction of the new building is completed, even if a [firm purchase commitment](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/f/#firm-purchase-commitment "A firm purchase commitment is an agreement with an unrelated party, binding on both parties and usually legally enforceable, that meets both of the following conditions: It specifies all significant terms, including the price and timing of the transaction. It includes a disincentive for nonperformance that is sufficiently large to make performance probable.") for the future transfer of the existing building is obtained earlier.

An entity commits to a plan to sell a manufacturing facility and has initiated actions to locate a buyer. At the plan commitment date, there is a backlog of uncompleted customer orders. The following illustrate situations in which the criterion in paragraph [360-10-45-9(b)](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-45-9) would or would not be met:

1.  a
    
    The entity intends to sell the manufacturing facility with its operations. Any uncompleted customer orders at the sale date would transfer to the buyer. The transfer of uncompleted customer orders at the sale date will not affect the timing of the transfer of the facility. The criterion in paragraph [360-10-45-9(b)](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-45-9) would be met at the plan commitment date.
    
2.  b
    
    The entity intends to sell the manufacturing facility, but without its operations. The entity does not intend to transfer the facility to a buyer until after it ceases all operations of the facility and eliminates the backlog of uncompleted customer orders. The delay in the timing of the transfer of the facility imposed by the entity (seller) demonstrates that the facility is not available for immediate sale. The criterion in paragraph [360-10-45-9(b)](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-45-9) would not be met until the operations of the facility cease, even if a firm purchase commitment for the future transfer of the facility is obtained earlier.

An entity acquires through foreclosure a real estate property that it intends to sell. The following illustrate situations in which the criterion in paragraph [360-10-45-9(b)](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-45-9) would not be met:

1.  a
    
    The entity does not intend to transfer the property to a buyer until after it completes renovations to increase its sales value. The delay in the timing of the transfer of the property imposed by the entity (seller) demonstrates that the property is not available for immediate sale. The criterion in paragraph [360-10-45-9(b)](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-45-9) would not be met until the renovations are completed.
    
2.  b
    
    After the renovations are completed and the property is classified as held for sale but before a firm purchase commitment is obtained, the entity becomes aware of environmental damage requiring remediation. The entity still intends to sell the property. However, the entity does not have the ability to transfer the property to a buyer until after the remediation is completed. The delay in the timing of the transfer of the property imposed by others before a firm purchase commitment is obtained demonstrates that the property is not available for immediate sale. The criterion in paragraph [360-10-45-9(b)](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-45-9) would not continue to be met. The property would be reclassified as held and used in accordance with paragraph [360-10-45-7](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-45-7).

2.  b
    
    An entity commits to a plan to sell an asset that is in use and lease back that asset; however, the transfer of the asset will not be accounted for as a sale and leaseback transaction because the buyer-lessor does not obtain control of the asset based on the guidance in paragraphs
    
    [842-40-25-1 through 25-3](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/40/#842-40-25-1)

An entity in the utility industry commits to a plan to sell a disposal group that represents a significant portion of its regulated operations. The sale will require regulatory approval, which could extend the period required to complete the sale beyond one year. Actions necessary to obtain that approval cannot be initiated until after a buyer is known and a firm purchase commitment is obtained. However, a firm purchase commitment is probable within one year.

An entity commits to a plan to sell a manufacturing facility in its present condition and classifies the facility as held for sale at that date. After a firm purchase commitment is obtained, the buyer's inspection of the property identifies environmental damage not previously known to exist.

An entity commits to a plan to sell a long-lived asset and classifies the asset as held for sale at that date. The following illustrates situations in which the conditions for an exception to the criterion in paragraph [360-10-45-9(d)](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-45-9) would or would not be met:

1.  a
    
    During the initial one-year period, the market conditions that existed at the date the asset was classified initially as held for sale deteriorate and, as a result, the asset is not sold by the end of that period. During that period, the entity actively solicited but did not receive any reasonable offers to purchase the asset and, in response, reduced the price. The asset continues to be actively marketed at a price that is reasonable given the change in market conditions, and the criteria in paragraph [360-10-45-9](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-45-9) are met. In that situation, the conditions in paragraph [360-10-45-11(c)](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-45-11) for an exception to the one-year requirement in paragraph [360-10-45-9(d)](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-45-9) would be met. At the end of the initial one-year period, the asset would continue to be classified as held for sale.
    
2.  b
    
    During the following one-year period, market conditions deteriorate further, and the asset is not sold by the end of that period. The entity believes that the market conditions will improve and has not further reduced the price of the asset. The asset continues to be held for sale, but at a price in excess of its current fair value. In that situation, the absence of a price reduction demonstrates that the asset is not available for immediate sale as required by the criterion in paragraph [360-10-45-9(b)](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-45-9). In addition, the criterion in paragraph [360-10-45-9(e)](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-45-9) requires that an asset be marketed at a price that is reasonable in relation to its current fair value. Therefore, the conditions in paragraph [360-10-45-11(c)](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-45-11) for an exception to the one-year requirement in paragraph [360-10-45-9(d)](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-45-9) would not be met. The asset would be reclassified as held and used in accordance with paragraph [360-10-35-44](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-35-44).

Offshore Industries is a manufacturer of offshore drilling rigs and platforms. The entity's manufacturing process requires significant specialized equipment, which it currently owns. As a result of a decline in the price of oil, the demand for its products and services has fallen dramatically in the past two years, resulting in a significant underutilization of its manufacturing capacity.

The entity depreciates its investments in specialized equipment based on its original estimate of the remaining useful lives of the equipment using the units-of-production method, since it believes that the exhaustion of usefulness of these specialized assets relates more to their use than to the passage of time. The entity reevaluates these estimates in light of current conditions in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The entity also monitors the policies of its major competitors and is aware that several have reported large write-downs of similar assets. Nevertheless, while the entity believes that it is at least reasonably possible that its estimate that it will recover the carrying amount of those assets from future operations will change during the next year, it believes it is more likely that conditions in the industry will improve and that no write-down for impairment will be necessary.

The entity would make the following disclosure:

-   Offshore's policy is to depreciate specialized manufacturing equipment (with a net book value of $25 million at December 31, 19X7) over its remaining useful life using the units-of-production method and to evaluate the remaining life and recoverability of such equipment in light of current conditions. \[Given the excess capacity in the industry,\] it is reasonably possible that the entity's estimate that it will recover the carrying amount of this equipment from future operations will change in the near term.

In this Example, the entity acknowledges that the carrying amount of the specialized assets is subject to significant uncertainty based on current conditions. The uncertainty relates to the measurement of the specialized assets at the date of the financial statements, and the entity's disclosure makes clear that it is at least reasonably possible that the carrying amount will change in the near term.

The following is the text of SAB Topic 5.B, Gain or Loss from Disposition of Equipment.

-   Facts: Company A has adopted the policy of treating gains and losses from disposition of revenue producing equipment as adjustments to the current year's provision for depreciation. Company B reflects such gains and losses as a separate item in the statement of income.
    
-   Question: Does the staff have any views as to which method is preferable?
    
-   Interpretive Response: Gains and losses resulting from the disposition of revenue producing equipment should not be treated as adjustments to the provision for depreciation in the year of disposition, but should be shown as a separate item in the statement of income.
    
-   If such equipment is depreciated on the basis of group of composite accounts for fleets of like vehicles, gains (or losses) may be charged (or credited) to accumulated depreciation with the result that depreciation is adjusted over a period of years on an average basis. It should be noted that the latter treatment would not be appropriate for (1) an enterprise (such as an airline) which replaces its fleet on an episodic rather than a continuing basis or (2) an enterprise (such as a car leasing company) where equipment is sold after limited use so that the equipment on hand is both fairly new and carried at amounts closely related to current acquisition cost.

The following is the text of SAB Topic 5.CC, Impairments.

-   Standards for recognizing and measuring impairment of the carrying amount of long-lived assets including certain identifiable intangibles to be held and used in operations are found in FASB ASC Topic 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment. Standards for recognizing and measuring impairment of the carrying amount of goodwill and identifiable intangible assets that are not currently being amortized are found in FASB ASC Topic 350, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other.
    
-   Facts: Company X has mainframe computers that are to be abandoned in six to nine months as replacement computers are put in place. The mainframe computers were placed in service in January 20X0 and were being depreciated on a straight-line basis over seven years. No salvage value had been projected at the end of seven years and the original cost of the computers was $8,400. The board of directors, with the appropriate authority, approved the abandonment of the computers in March 20X3 when the computers had a remaining carrying value of $4,600. No proceeds are expected upon abandonment. Abandonment cannot occur prior to the receipt and installation of replacement computers, which is expected prior to the end of 20X3. Management had begun reevaluating its mainframe computer capabilities in January 20X2 and had included in its 20X3 capital expenditures budget an estimated amount for new mainframe computers. The 20X3 capital expenditures budget had been prepared by management in August 20X2, had been discussed with the company's board of directors in September 20X2 and was formally approved by the board of directors in March 20X3. Management had also begun soliciting bids for new mainframe computers beginning in the fall of 20X2. The mainframe computers, when grouped with assets at the lowest level of identifiable cash flows, were not impaired on a "held and used" basis throughout this time period. Management had not adjusted the original estimated useful life of the computers (seven years) since 20X0.
    
-   Question 1: Company X proposes to recognize an impairment charge under FASB ASC Topic 360 for the carrying value of the mainframe computers of $4,600 in March 20X3. Does Company X meet the requirements in FASB ASC Topic 360 to classify the mainframe computer assets as "to be abandoned?"
    
-   Interpretive Response: No. FASB ASC paragraph [360-10-35-47](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-35-47) provides that "a long-lived asset to be abandoned is disposed of when it ceases to be used. If an entity commits to a plan to abandon a long-lived asset before the end of its previously estimated useful life, depreciation estimates shall be revised in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 250, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, to reflect the use of the asset over its shortened useful life."
    
-   Question 2: Would the staff accept an adjustment to write down the carrying value of the computers to reflect a "normalized depreciation" rate for the period from March 20X3 through actual abandonment (e. g., December 20X3)? Normalized depreciation would represent the amount of depreciation otherwise expected to be recognized during that period without adjustment of the asset's useful life, or $1,000 ($100/month for ten months) in the example fact pattern.
    
-   Interpretive Response: No. The mainframe computers would be viewed as "held and used" at March 20X3 under the fact pattern described. There is no basis under FASB ASC Topic 360 to write down an asset to an amount that would subsequently result in a "normalized depreciation" charge through the disposal date, whether disposal is to be by sale, abandonment, or other means. FASB ASC paragraph [360-10-35-43](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-35-43) requires the asset to be valued at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell in order to be classified as "held for sale." For assets that are classified as "held and used" under FASB ASC Topic 360, an assessment must first be made as to whether the asset (asset group) is impaired. FASB ASC paragraph [360-10-35-17](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-35-17) indicates that an impairment loss shall be recognized only if the carrying amount of a long-lived asset (asset group) is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value. The carrying amount of a long-lived asset (asset group) is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset (asset group). The staff would object to a write down of long-lived assets to a "normalized depreciation" value as representing an acceptable alternative to the approaches required in FASB ASC Topic 360.
    
-   The staff also believes that registrants must continually evaluate the appropriateness of useful lives assigned to long-lived assets, including identifiable intangible assets and goodwill. In the above fact pattern, management had contemplated removal of the mainframe computers beginning in January 20X2 and, more formally, in August 20X2 as part of compiling the 20X3 capital expenditures budget. At those times, at a minimum, management should have reevaluated the original useful life assigned to the computers to determine whether a seven year amortization period remained appropriate given the company's current facts and circumstances, including ongoing technological changes in the market place. This reevaluation process should have continued at the time of the September 20X2 board of directors' meeting to discuss capital expenditure plans and, further, as the company pursued mainframe computer bids. Given the contemporaneous evidence that management's best estimate during much of 20X2 was that the current mainframe computers would be removed from service in 20X3, the depreciable life of the computers should have been adjusted prior to 20X3 to reflect this new estimate. The staff does not view the recognition of an impairment charge to be an acceptable substitute for choosing the appropriate initial amortization or depreciation period or subsequently adjusting this period as company or industry conditions change. The staff's view applies also to selection of, and changes to, estimated residual values. Consequently, the staff may challenge impairment charges for which the timely evaluation of useful life and residual value cannot be demonstrated.
    
-   Question 3: Has the staff expressed any views with respect to company-determined estimates of cash flows used for assessing and measuring impairment of assets under FASB ASC Topic 360?
    
-   Interpretive Response: In providing guidance on the development of cash flows for purposes of applying the provisions of that Topic, FASB ASC paragraph [360-10-35-30](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/10/#360-10-35-30) indicates that "estimates of future cash flows used to test the recoverability of a long-lived asset (asset group) shall incorporate the entity's own assumptions about its use of the asset (asset group) and shall consider all available evidence. The assumptions used in developing those estimates shall be reasonable in relation to the assumptions used in developing other information used by the entity for comparable periods, such as internal budgets and projections, accruals related to incentive compensation plans, or information communicated to others."
    
-   The staff recognizes that various factors, including management's judgments and assumptions about the business plans and strategies, affect the development of future cash flow projections for purposes of applying FASB ASC Topic 360. The staff, however, cautions registrants that the judgments and assumptions made for purposes of applying FASB ASC Topic 360 must be consistent with other financial statement calculations and disclosures and disclosures in MD&A. The staff also expects that forecasts made for purposes of applying FASB ASC Topic 360 be consistent with other forward-looking information prepared by the company, such as that used for internal budgets, incentive compensation plans, discussions with lenders or third parties, and/or reporting to management or the board of directors.
    
-   For example, the staff has reviewed a fact pattern where a registrant developed cash flow projections for purposes of applying the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 360 using one set of assumptions and utilized a second, more conservative set of assumptions for purposes of determining whether deferred tax valuation allowances were necessary when applying the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes. In this case, the staff objected to the use of inconsistent assumptions.
    
-   In addition to disclosure of key assumptions used in the development of cash flow projections, the staff also has required discussion in MD&A of the implications of assumptions. For example, do the projections indicate that a company is likely to violate debt covenants in the future? What are the ramifications to the cash flow projections used in the impairment analysis? If growth rates used in the impairment analysis are lower than those used by outside analysts, has the company had discussions with the analysts regarding their overly optimistic projections? Has the company appropriately informed the market and its shareholders of its reduced expectations for the future that are sufficient to cause an impairment charge? The staff believes that cash flow projections used in the impairment analysis must be both internally consistent with the company's other projections and externally consistent with financial statement and other public disclosures.

    "Because ASU 2014-09 eliminated the real-estate-specific profit recognition model, a sale of real estate to a customer is now evaluated under ASC 606, including the control-transfer criteria in 606-10-25-30 and the repurchase-agreement guidance in 606-10-55-66 through 55-78.",
    "Sales or transfers of nonfinancial assets, including in-substance real estate, to counterparties that are not customers are accounted for under ASC 610-20, which applies the ASC 606 control and measurement concepts to derecognition.",

## ASC 360-905: Property, Plant, and Equipment — Agriculture

### Machine-generated study aids

```json
{
  "summary": "ASC 360-905 governs how agricultural producers account for property, plant, and equipment — land development, orchards/groves/vineyards, intermediate-life plants, and animals. The core rule is that development costs (permanent and limited-life land development, cultural costs of trees and vines, and direct and indirect costs of developing animals) are capitalized during the development period; permanent land development is never depreciated because it has an indefinite life, while limited-life development, plantings, and mature breeding/production animals are depreciated over estimated useful or productive lives beginning when commercial production or maturity is reached.",
  "key_points": [
    "Permanent land development costs (clearing, initial leveling, terracing, earthen dams) shall be capitalized (360-905-25-1) and shall not be depreciated or amortized because they have an indefinite useful life (360-905-35-6).",
    "Limited-life land development costs and the direct and indirect development costs of orchards, groves, vineyards, and intermediate-life plants shall be capitalized during the development period (360-905-25-3) and depreciated over the useful life of the land development or of the tree, vine, or plant (360-905-35-7).",
    "Cultural costs during the development of trees and vines (stakes and wires, grafting, labor for pruning and forming) are capitalized, and net proceeds from sales of products before commercial production begins are applied against the capitalized cost of the plants, trees, or vines (360-905-25-2).",
    "Breeding animals, all livestock, and production animals are recognized as fixed assets, except animals with short productive lives classified as inventory under 905-330-25-3 (360-905-25-4).",
    "All direct and indirect development costs of animals are accumulated until maturity and transfer to a productive function; immature animals are not considered in service, and upon maturity accumulated costs less estimated salvage value are depreciated over estimated productive lives (360-905-30-1; 360-905-35-2).",
    "Animals available and held for sale are measured under Subtopic 330-10 or, per established industry practice, at net realizable value if there are reliable, readily determinable, realizable market prices, insignificant and predictable disposal costs, and immediate availability for delivery (360-905-30-2).",
    "Depreciation of orchard, vineyard, grove, and intermediate-life plant costs begins when production in commercial quantities begins (360-905-35-4; 360-905-35-5), and accumulated costs and estimated useful lives for intermediate-life plants must be disclosed (360-905-50-1)."

Also remember depreciation does not start until commercial production or animal maturity, and pre-production sales proceeds reduce the capitalized cost rather than being reported as revenue.",

Land development generally includes improvements to bring the land into a suitable condition for general agricultural use and to maintain its productive condition. Some improvements are permanent; some have a limited life. Permanent land developments include, for example, clearing, initial leveling, terracing, and construction of earthen dams; they involve changes to the grade and contour of the ground and generally have an indefinite life if they are properly maintained. Limited-life developments usually include such items as water distribution systems and fencing and may also include the costs of wells, levees, ponds, drain tile, and ditches, depending on the climate, topography, soil conditions, and farming practices in the area.

Orchards, [vineyards](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/v/#vineyards "Grapevines planted in patterns for commercial cultivation and production."), and groves generally develop over several years before they reach [commercial production](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/c/#commercial-production "The point at which production from an orchard, vineyard, or grove first reaches a level that makes operations economically feasible, based on prices normally expected to prevail."). Production continues for varying numbers of years, depending on such influences as type of plant, soil, and climate. During development, the plants normally require grafting, pruning, spraying, cultivation, or other care.

Intermediate-life plants include, for example, artichokes, various types of berries, asparagus, alfalfa, and grazing grasses. Development costs of intermediate-life plants include the cost of land preparation, plants, and cultural care until the plant, bush, or vine begins to produce in commercial quantities.

The terms [livestock](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/l/#livestock "Registered and commercial cattle, sheep, hogs, horses, poultry, and small animals bred and raised by agricultural producers.") and _animals_ are used interchangeably and are meant to include cattle, sheep, hogs, horses, poultry, and other small animals. The development of animals requires care and maintenance of the breeding stock and their [progeny](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/p/#progeny "Offspring of animals or plants.") until their transfer from the brood herd. Animals purchased before maturity also require care and maintenance to ready them for productive use or sale. The animals are ultimately identified for transfer to [breeding herds](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/b/#breeding-herds "Breeding herds consist of mature and immature male and female animals, either of registered or commercial grade, that are maintained for their progeny."), dairy herds, or other productive functions, are selected for sale, or are transferred to a feeding or other marketing operation.

Trees and vines may be planted and brought to production by the producer or on a contract basis. The young trees and vines are usually purchased as nursery stock and transplanted into the [orchard](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/o/#orchard "Fruit trees planted in geometric patterns to economically facilitate care of the trees and harvest of the fruit. See also Grove.") or vineyard in the desired pattern. Cultural costs during the development period, including stakes and wires, grafting, and labor for pruning and forming, shall be capitalized. Net proceeds from sales of products before [commercial production](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/c/#commercial-production "The point at which production from an orchard, vineyard, or grove first reaches a level that makes operations economically feasible, based on prices normally expected to prevail.") begins shall be applied to the capitalized cost of the plants, trees, or vines.

Some [production animals](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/p/#production-animals "Production animals provide a service or primary product other than their progeny. Examples are dairy cows (milk), poultry (meat and eggs), and sheep (meat and wool).") produce more than one product. For example, sheep produce lambs, wool, and meat; dairy cattle produce milk, calves, and meat. The primary products are lambs and milk, whereas the secondary products are usually wool and calves. Costs may be allocated as either joint products or by-products depending on the estimated relative values of each. In most instances the meat, or slaughter value, of the production animal is considered salvage. The method of accounting shall be determined by the amounts anticipated to be received for each product. Those amounts are affected by the breeding, production, and marketing practices of the producer.

## ASC 360-908: Property, Plant, and Equipment — Airlines

### Machine-generated study aids

```json
{
  "summary": "ASC 360-908 governs property, plant, and equipment accounting unique to airlines: unit versus group depreciation, rotable parts, airframe modifications, and airframe/engine overhauls. Its core rules are that modifications enhancing an aircraft's usefulness must be capitalized and depreciated over the shorter of the aircraft's or the modification's useful life, and that overhauls must be accounted for under one of three permitted methods—direct expensing, built-in overhaul, or deferral—with the accrue-in-advance (accrual) method prohibited.",
  "key_points": [
    "A depreciation method may be applied to a single asset (unit method, typically aircraft and engines with large unit costs) or to a homogeneous pool (group method, typically rotable parts and assemblies), with ease of application being the basis of selection (360-908-35-1).",
    "Rotable parts and assemblies of significant value are classified with flight equipment as fixed assets (360-908-45-1) and are normally depreciated over their useful or service lives under a group method (360-908-35-2).",
    "Costs of interior configuration modifications that enhance the usefulness of the aircraft shall be capitalized (360-908-25-1) and depreciated over the estimated useful life of the aircraft or of the modification, whichever is less (360-908-35-3).",
    "Air carriers must adopt a method that recognizes overhaul expense in the appropriate period; permitted methods are direct expensing (908-720-25-3), the built-in overhaul method, and the deferral method, and the accrue-in-advance method is prohibited in annual and interim periods (360-908-25-2; 360-10-25-5).",
    "Under the built-in overhaul method, aggregate aircraft cost is segregated into components depreciated over the aircraft's useful life and an overhaul component that is set up separately and amortized to the date of the initial overhaul; each subsequent overhaul cost is then capitalized and amortized to the next overhaul (360-908-30-2; 360-908-35-5).",
    "Under the deferral method, the actual cost of each overhaul is capitalized and amortized to the next overhaul (360-908-30-3; 360-908-35-6).",
    "On replacement, the cost of the replaced asset net of accumulated depreciation and anticipated recovery value is charged to income in the current period, using estimates where detailed records are inadequate (360-908-40-1); manufacturer purchase incentive credits are accounted for under 705-20-25-1 through 25-5, or as a lease incentive under Topic 842 if the aircraft is leased (360-908-55-1)."

This Subtopic provides guidance for accounting for certain property, plant, and equipment assets for entities in the airline industry. It includes guidance on:

1.  a
    
    The use of unit and group depreciation methods.
    
2.  b
    
    Rotable parts. [Rotable parts](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/r/#rotable-parts "Rotable parts are normally repaired and reused, as opposed to those parts that are consumed in the operations (expendable parts).") relate to flight equipment.
    
3.  c
    
    [Airframe](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/a/#airframe "The structure of an aircraft, excluding engines and accessories. The principal parts of the airframe of an airplane include the fuselage (the body), wings, empennage (the assembly of stabilizing and control surfaces at the tail), landing gear, and nacelles or pods (engine housings).") modifications. Airlines have undertaken major programs to modify interior configurations of certain aircraft types—including the reconfiguration and replacement of seats, galley equipment, and storage space—in response to market forces and passenger demands. Since deregulation, such changes have been more frequent.
    
4.  d
    
    Airframe and engine overhauls. As a result of overhaul requirements established by the Federal Aviation Administration, aircraft airframes and engines must be overhauled within specific intervals. The value and usefulness of an aircraft can be heavily dependent on its stage of overhaul. For accounting purposes, airframe and aircraft engine overhauls encompass all inspections or replacements of major components, which the civil air regulations require at specific maximum periodic intervals to recertify that the frame or engine is completely airworthy.

Airlines frequently negotiate purchase incentives with aircraft manufacturers whereby, as an inducement to purchase a particular manufacturer's aircraft, the manufacturer will issue credits, which can be used for the purchase of [spare parts](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/s/#spare-parts "Parts, appurtenances, and accessories of aircraft (other than aircraft engines and propellers), of aircraft engines (other than propellers), of propellers, or of appliances that are maintained for installation or use in an aircraft, aircraft engine, propeller, or appliance but that are not yet installed or attached.") but may not be applied as part of the purchase price of aircraft. Examples of other incentives are guaranteed trade-in values and purchase credits for flight crew training equipment (for example, flight simulators).

The built-in overhaul method is based on segregation of the aggregate aircraft costs into those components that shall be depreciated over the useful life of the aircraft and those that require overhaul at periodic intervals. Thus, the estimated cost of the overhaul component included in the purchase price shall be set up separately from the cost of the [airframe](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/a/#airframe "The structure of an aircraft, excluding engines and accessories. The principal parts of the airframe of an airplane include the fuselage (the body), wings, empennage (the assembly of stabilizing and control surfaces at the tail), landing gear, and nacelles or pods (engine housings).") and engines.

A depreciation method may be applied to a single asset (unit depreciation) or to a group or pool of assets that are similar in nature (group depreciation). An [air carrier](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/a/#air-carrier "Any entity that undertakes, whether directly or indirectly or by a lease or any other arrangement, to engage in air transportation.") can use unit or group depreciation methods on different groups of assets. The ease of application is the basis of selection between the two methods.

1.  a
    
    Unit method. Under the unit method, the airline depreciates the cost of the individual items of property and equipment. Unit depreciation is generally used for fixed assets, such as aircraft and engines, that have large unit costs and are comparatively few in number.
    
2.  b
    
    Group method. Under the group method, the airline depreciates the aggregate cost of a group of equipment that is fairly homogeneous, despite differences in the service lives of individual items. Group depreciation usually is applied to groups of assets that are significant in number but have relatively small unit values, such as [rotable parts](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/r/#rotable-parts "Rotable parts are normally repaired and reused, as opposed to those parts that are consumed in the operations (expendable parts).") and assemblies.

Before revenue is recognized from the first subscriber, management shall establish the beginning and end of the [prematurity period](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/p/#prematurity-period "During the prematurity period, the cable television system is partially under construction and partially in service. The prematurity period begins when revenue from the first subscriber is recognized in accordance with Topic 606 on revenue from contracts with customers.Its end will vary with circumstances of the system but will be determined based on plans for completion of the first major construction period or achievement of a specified predetermined subscriber level at which no additional investment will be required for other than cable television plant. The construction period of a cable television system varies with the size of the franchise area, density of population, and difficulty of physical construction. The construction period is not completed until the head-end, main cable, and distribution cables are installed, and includes a reasonable time to provide for installation of subscriber drops and related hardware. During the construction period, many system operators complete installation of drops and begin to provide service to some subscribers in some parts of the system while construction continues. Providing the signal for the first time is referred to as energizing the system. The length of the prematurity period varies with the franchise development and construction plans. Such plans may consist of any of the following: Small franchise that is characterized by the absence of free television signal and a short construction period. The entire system is energized at one time near the end of the construction period. Medium-size franchise that is characterized by some direct competition from free television and by a more extensive geographical franchise area lending itself to incremental construction. Some parts of the system are energized as construction progresses. Large metropolitan franchise that is characterized by heavy direct competition from free television and fringe area signal inadequacy, high cost, and difficult construction. Many parts of the system are energized as construction progresses. Except in the smallest systems, programming is usually delivered to portions of the system and some revenues are obtained before construction of the entire system is complete. Thus, virtually every cable television system experiences a prematurity period during which it is receiving some revenue while continuing to incur substantial costs related to the establishment of the total system."), subject to a presumption that the prematurity period usually will not exceed two years. The prematurity period frequently will be shorter than two years; a longer period may be reasonably justified only in major urban markets. After the prematurity period is established by management, it shall not be changed except as a result of highly unusual circumstances. A portion of a cable television system that is in the prematurity period and can be clearly distinguished from the remainder of the system shall be accounted for separately.

An entity shall consider the effects of anticipated fluctuations in the market price of minerals when estimating future cash flows (both undiscounted and discounted) used for determining whether a mining asset is impaired under the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets Subsections of Subtopic 360-10. Estimates of those effects shall be consistent with estimates of a market participant. Generally, an entity shall consider all available information including current prices, historical averages, and forward pricing curves. Those marketplace assumptions typically shall be consistent with an entity's operating plans and financial projections underlying other aspects of the impairment analysis (for example, amount and timing of production). It generally would be inappropriate for an entity to use a single factor, such as the current price or a historical average, as a surrogate for estimating future prices without considering other information that a market participant would consider.

  "summary": "This subtopic governs how oil and gas entities capitalize, amortize, impair, and dispose of industry-specific property, plant, and equipment—mineral interests in properties, wells and related equipment and facilities, support equipment and facilities, and uncompleted wells—under the successful efforts method (full cost accounting is left to SEC literature). Only exploration and development costs that relate directly to specific oil and gas reserves are capitalized; other costs are expensed, and exploratory well costs are held in uncompleted wells pending a determination of whether proved reserves were found. Capitalized proved property and well costs are amortized by the unit-of-production method, unproved properties are periodically assessed for impairment via a valuation allowance, and conveyances of mineral interests generally produce no gain when they are poolings of assets or involve substantial future performance obligations.",

    "Costs of drilling exploratory wells and exploratory-type stratigraphic test wells are capitalized as uncompleted wells, equipment, and facilities pending determination of proved reserves; they are reclassified to wells and related equipment if proved reserves are found and charged to expense if not (932-360-25-10; 932-360-35-17; 932-360-40-2).",
    "Capitalized exploratory well costs may continue to be capitalized only if the well found sufficient reserves to justify completion and the entity is making 'sufficient progress' assessing the reserves and the economic/operating viability of the project; capitalization cannot be continued on the chance that prices will rise or technology will develop (932-360-35-13; 932-360-35-18 through 35-20).",
    "Acquisition costs of proved properties are amortized by the unit-of-production method over total proved reserves, while capitalized well and development costs are amortized over proved developed reserves; rates are revised at least annually and prospectively as changes in estimate (932-360-35-6; 932-360-35-7).",

    "No gain is recognized on conveyances that are poolings of assets in a joint undertaking, or where a part interest is sold and substantial uncertainty exists about recovery of the retained interest's cost or the seller has a substantial obligation for future performance; otherwise gain or loss is recognized (932-360-40-7 through 40-9)."

Only those [exploration costs](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/e/#exploration-costs "See paragraph 932-10-S99-1, Regulation S-X Rule 4-10(a)(12), for the definition of exploration costs as used within that Rule.") and development costs that relate directly to specific oil and gas reserves are capitalized; costs that do not relate directly to specific reserves are charged to expense. The successful efforts method of accounting conforms to the traditional concept of the historical cost of an asset. Under the successful efforts method, certain types of costs may be capitalized as construction-in-progress pending further information about the existence of future benefits, but as soon as the additional information becomes available, and it is known whether future benefits exist, those costs are either reclassified as an amortizable asset or charged to expense.

In the oil and gas industry, ultimately the expected future benefits that an entity is attempting to obtain through its acquisition, exploration, and development activities are represented by oil and gas reserves. But other than by purchasing minerals-in-place, an entity does not acquire reserves directly. Rather, it acquires properties (rights to extract any reserves that may be discovered in the future) and it acquires (develops) systems capable of producing the oil and gas reserves that are discovered.

In that case, the entity conducting the geological and geophysical studies and other exploration activities shall account for those costs as a receivable when incurred and, if proved reserves are found, they shall become the cost of the proved property acquired.

Stratigraphic test wells are drilled to obtain information. They are not normally intended to be completed for hydrocarbon production and are customarily abandoned after drilling is completed and the information is obtained. Normally, stratigraphic test wells are drilled offshore to determine whether an offshore property contains sufficient reserves to justify the cost of constructing and installing a production platform and to determine where to locate such a platform.

Stratigraphic test wells are divided into two types—exploratory-type and development-type—and the standards of accounting for the two types parallel the accounting for exploratory wells and development wells, respectively. Thus, an exploratory-type [stratigraphic test well](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/s/#stratigraphic-test-well "A stratigraphic test is a drilling effort, geologically directed, to obtain information pertaining to a specific geologic condition. Such wells customarily are drilled without the intention of being completed for hydrocarbon production. This classification also includes tests identified as core tests and all types of expendable holes related to hydrocarbon exploration. Stratigraphic tests are classified as exploratory-type if not drilled in a proved area or development-type if drilled in a proved area.") is accounted for in a manner similar to an [exploratory well](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/e/#exploratory-well "An exploratory well is a well drilled to find a new field or to find a new reservoir in a field previously found to be productive of oil or gas in another reservoir. Generally, an exploratory well is any well that is not a development well, a service well , or a stratigraphic test well.") drilled in an area requiring a major capital expenditure before production could begin (see paragraph [932-360-25-10](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/932/#360-932-25-10)). The costs of drilling the exploratory-type stratigraphic test well are capitalized pending determination of whether proved reserves are found, subject to the condition that those costs shall not continue to be carried as assets if the entity is not making sufficient progress assessing the reserves and the economic and operating viability of the project or if the quantity of reserves found would not justify completion of the well for production had it not been simply a stratigraphic test well. Thus if an exploratory-type stratigraphic test well discovers reserves that are classified as proved and facilities are to be installed to produce those reserves, the cost of the exploratory-type stratigraphic test well is accounted for as part of the cost of the facilities even though the particular well itself may be abandoned. Accounting for the other type of stratigraphic test well—development-type—is identical to accounting for development wells and other development costs generally: capitalize as part of the cost of an entity's wells and related equipment and facilities (as discussed in paragraph [932-360-25-14](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/932/#360-932-25-14)).

The unit-of-production method of amortization requires that the total number of units of oil or gas reserves in a property or group of properties be estimated and that the number of units produced in the current period be determined. Many properties contain both oil and gas reserves. In those cases, the oil and gas reserves and the oil and gas produced shall be converted to a common unit of measure on the basis of their approximate relative energy content (without considering their relative sales values). However, if the relative proportion of gas and oil extracted in the current period is expected to continue throughout the remaining productive life of the property, unit-of-production amortization may be computed on the basis of one of the two minerals only; similarly, if either oil or gas clearly dominates both the reserves and the current production (with dominance determined on the basis of relative energy content), unit-of-production amortization may be computed on the basis of the dominant mineral only.

Capitalized acquisition costs of proved properties shall be amortized (depleted) by the unit-of-production method so that each unit produced is assigned a pro rata portion of the unamortized acquisition costs. Under the unit-of-production method, amortization (depletion) may be computed either on a property-by-property basis or on the basis of some reasonable aggregation of properties with a common geological structural feature or stratigraphic condition, such as a [reservoir](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/r/#reservoir "A reservoir is a porous and permeable underground formation containing a natural accumulation of producible oil or gas that is confined by impermeable rock or water barriers and is individual and separate from other reservoirs.") or [field](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/f/#field "A field is an area consisting of a single reservoir or multiple reservoirs all grouped on or related to the same individual geological structural feature and/or stratigraphic condition. There may be two or more reservoirs in a field which are separated vertically by intervening impervious strata, or laterally by local geologic barriers, or by both. Reservoirs that are associated by being in overlapping or adjacent fields may be treated as a single or common operational field. The geological terms structural feature and stratigraphic condition are intended to identify localized geological features as opposed to the broader terms of basins, trends, provinces, plays, areas-of-interest, and so forth."). When an entity has a relatively large number of royalty interests whose acquisition costs are not individually significant, they may be aggregated, for the purpose of computing amortization, without regard to commonality of geological structural features or stratigraphic conditions; if information is not available to estimate reserve quantities applicable to royalty interests owned (see paragraph [932-235-50-4](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/235/932/#235-932-50-4)), a method other than the unit-of-production method may be used to amortize their acquisition costs. The unit cost shall be computed on the basis of the total estimated units of [proved oil and gas reserves](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/p/#proved-oil-and-gas-reserves "Proved oil and gas reserves are those quantities of oil and gas, which, by analysis of geoscience and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be economically producible from a given date forward, from known reservoirs, and under existing economic conditions, operating methods, and government regulation before the time at which contracts providing the right to operate expire, unless evidence indicates that renewal is reasonably certain, regardless of whether the estimate is a deterministic estimate or probabilistic estimate. The project to extract the hydrocarbons must have commenced, or the operator must be reasonably certain that it will commence the project, within a reasonable time.The area of the reservoir considered as proved includes all of the following: The area identified by drilling and limited by fluid contacts, if any Adjacent undrilled portions of the reservoir that can, with reasonable certainty, be judged to be continuous with it and to contain economically producible oil or gas on the basis of available geoscience and engineering data. In the absence of data on fluid contacts, proved quantities in a reservoir are limited by the lowest known hydrocarbons as seen in a well penetration unless geoscience, engineering, or performance data and reliable technology establish a lower contact with reasonable certainty.Where direct observation from well penetrations has defined a highest known oil elevation and the potential exists for an associated gas cap, proved oil reserves may be assigned in the structurally higher portions of the reservoir only if geoscience, engineering, or performance data and reliable technology establish the higher contact with reasonable certainty.Reserves that can be produced economically through application of improved recovery techniques (including, but not limited to, fluid injection) are included in the proved classification when both of the following occur: Successful testing by a pilot project in an area of the reservoir with properties no more favorable than in the reservoir as a whole, the operation of an installed program in the reservoir or an analogous reservoir, or other evidence using reliable technology establishes the reasonable certainty of the engineering analysis on which the project or program was based. The project has been approved for development by all necessary parties and entities, including governmental entities. Existing economic conditions include prices and costs at which economic producibility from a reservoir is to be determined. The price shall be the average price during the 12-month period before the ending date of the period covered by the report, determined as an unweighted arithmetic average of the first-day-of-the-month price for each month within such period, unless prices are defined by contractual arrangements, excluding escalations based upon future conditions."). (Joint production of both oil and gas is discussed in the preceding paragraph.) Unit-of-production amortization rates shall be revised whenever there is an indication of the need for revision but at least once a year; those revisions shall be accounted for prospectively as changes in accounting estimates (see paragraphs

Capitalized costs of exploratory wells and exploratory-type stratigraphic test wells that have found proved reserves and capitalized development costs shall be amortized (depreciated) by the unit-of-production method so that each unit produced is assigned a pro rata portion of the unamortized costs. It may be more appropriate, in some cases, to depreciate natural gas cycling and processing plants by a method other than the unit-of-production method. Under the unit-of-production method, amortization (depreciation) may be computed either on a property-by-property basis or on the basis of some reasonable aggregation of properties with a common geological structural feature or stratigraphic condition, such as a reservoir or field. The unit cost shall be computed on the basis of the total estimated units of proved developed reserves, rather than on the basis of all proved reserves, which is the basis for amortizing acquisition costs of proved properties. If significant development costs (such as the cost of an off-shore production platform) are incurred in connection with a planned group of development wells before all of the planned wells have been drilled, it shall be necessary to exclude a portion of those development costs in determining the unit-of-production amortization rate until the additional development wells are drilled. Similarly it shall be necessary to exclude, in computing the amortization rate, those proved developed reserves that will be produced only after significant additional development costs are incurred, such as for improved recovery systems. However, in no case shall future development costs be anticipated in computing the amortization rate. (Joint production of both oil and gas is discussed in paragraph [932-360-35-5](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/932/#360-932-35-5).)

Typically the evaluation of oil and gas producing properties is on a field-by-field basis or by logical grouping of assets if there is a significant shared infrastructure (for example, platform). The undiscounted future cash flows shall be based on total proved and risk-adjusted probable and possible reserves. That assessment shall be based on the carrying amount of the asset (asset group) at the date it is tested for recoverability. The impairment loss shall be measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of a long-lived asset (asset group) exceeds its fair value.

Unproved properties shall be assessed periodically to determine whether they have been impaired. A property would likely be impaired, for example, if a dry hole has been drilled on it and the entity has no firm plans to continue drilling. Also, the likelihood of partial or total impairment of a property increases as the expiration of the lease term approaches if drilling activity has not commenced on the property or on nearby properties. If the results of the assessment indicate impairment, a loss shall be recognized by providing a valuation allowance. Impairment of individual unproved properties whose acquisition costs are relatively significant shall be assessed on a property-by-property basis, and an indicated loss shall be recognized by providing a valuation allowance. When an entity has a relatively large number of unproved properties whose acquisition costs are not individually significant, it may not be practical to assess impairment on a property-by-property basis, in which case the amount of loss to be recognized and the amount of the valuation allowance needed to provide for impairment of those properties shall be determined by amortizing those properties, either in the aggregate or by groups, on the basis of the experience of the entity in similar situations and other information about such factors as the primary lease terms of those properties, the average holding period of unproved properties, and the relative proportion of such properties on which proved reserves have been found in the past.

An exploratory well or an exploratory-type stratigraphic well may be determined to have found oil and gas reserves, but those reserves cannot be classified as proved when drilling is completed. In those cases, the capitalized drilling costs shall continue to be capitalized if the well has found a sufficient quantity of reserves to justify its completion as a producing well and the entity is making sufficient progress assessing the reserves and the economic and operating viability of the project. Note that an entity is not required to complete the exploratory or exploratory-type stratigraphic well as a producing well. For purposes of determining whether capitalized drilling costs shall continue to be capitalized pending the determination of proved reserves, a project may include more than one exploratory well or exploratory-type stratigraphic well if the reserves are intended to be extracted in a single, integrated producing operation (for example, the producing wells will operate with shared infrastructure).

Long delays in the assessment or development plan (whether anticipated or unexpected) may raise doubts about whether the entity is making sufficient progress to continue the capitalization of exploratory well or exploratory-type stratigraphic well costs after the completion of drilling. The longer the assessment process for the reserves and the project, the more difficult it is to conclude that the entity is making sufficient progress to continue the capitalization of those exploratory well or exploratory-type stratigraphic well costs.

If an entity has not engaged in substantial activities to assess the reserves or the development of the project in a reasonable period of time after the drilling of the well is completed or activities have been suspended, any capitalized costs associated with that well shall be expensed net of any salvage value. After a reasonable period of time, the planning of future activities without engaging in substantial activities shall not be sufficient to continue the capitalization of exploratory well or exploratory-type stratigraphic well costs. However, brief interruptions in activities required to assess the reserves or the project, or other delays resulting from governmental or other third-party evaluation of a proposed project, do not require capitalized exploratory well or exploratory-type stratigraphic well costs to be expensed.

[Mineral interests](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/m/#mineral-interests "See Properties.") in properties are frequently conveyed to others for a variety of reasons, including the desire to spread risks, to obtain financing, to improve operating efficiency, and to achieve tax benefits. Conveyances of those interests may involve the transfer of all or a part of the rights and responsibilities of operating a property (operating interest). The transferor may or may not retain an interest in the oil and gas produced that is free of the responsibilities and costs of operating the property (a nonoperating interest). A transaction may, on the other hand, involve the transfer of a nonoperating interest to another party and retention of the operating interest.

Some [production](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/p/#production "Production involves lifting the crude oil and natural gas to the surface, extracting saleable hydrocarbons, in the solid, liquid, or gaseous state from oil sands, shale, coalbeds, or other nonrenewable natural resources that are intended to be upgraded into synthetic oil or gas, gathering, treating, field processing (as in the case of processing gas to extract liquid hydrocarbons), and field storage. The oil and gas production function shall be regarded as ending at a terminal point, which is the outlet valve on the lease or field storage tank. If unusual physical or operational circumstances exist, it may be appropriate to regard the terminal point for the production function as: The first point at which oil, gas, or gas liquids, natural or synthetic, are delivered to a main pipeline, a common carrier, a refinery, or a marine terminal In the case of natural resources that are intended to be upgraded into synthetic oil or gas, if those natural resources are delivered to a purchaser before upgrading, the first point at which the natural resources are delivered to a main pipeline, a common carrier, a refinery, a marine terminal, or a facility that upgrades such natural resources into synthetic oil or gas.") payments differ from those described in paragraph [932-470-25-1](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/470/932/#470-932-25-1) in that the seller's obligation is not expressed in monetary terms but as an obligation to deliver, free and clear of all expenses associated with operation of the property, a specified quantity of oil or gas to the purchaser out of a specified share of future production. Such a transaction is a sale of a mineral interest for which gain shall not be recognized because the seller has a substantial obligation for future performance. The seller shall account for the funds received as unearned revenue to be recognized as the oil or gas is delivered. The purchaser of such a production payment has acquired an interest in a mineral property that shall be recorded at cost and amortized by the unit-of-production method as delivery takes place. The related reserve estimates and production data shall be reported as those of the purchaser of the production payment and not of the seller (see paragraphs

An assignment of a part of an operating interest in an [unproved property](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/u/#unproved-properties "Unproved properties are properties with no proved reserves.") in exchange for a free well with provision for joint ownership and operation is a pooling of assets in a joint undertaking by the parties.

All drilling, development, and operating costs incurred by either party shall be accounted for as specified by this Topic. If the conveyance agreement requires the assignee to incur geological or geophysical expenditures instead of, or in addition to, a drilling obligation, those costs shall likewise be accounted for by the assignee as specified by this Topic.

A part of an operating interest in an unproved property may be assigned to effect an arrangement called a carried interest whereby the assignee (the carrying party) agrees to defray all costs of drilling, developing, and operating the property and is entitled to all of the revenue from production from the property, excluding any third party interest, until all of the assignee's costs have been recovered, after which the assignor will share in both costs and production. Such an arrangement represents a pooling of assets in a joint undertaking by the assignor and assignee. The carried party shall make no accounting for any costs and revenue until after recoupment (payout) of the carried costs by the carrying party. Subsequent to payout the carried party shall account for its share of revenue, operating expenses, and (if the agreement provides for subsequent sharing of costs rather than a carried interest) subsequent development costs. During the payout period the carrying party shall record all costs, including those carried, as specified by this Topic and shall record all revenue from the property including that applicable to the recovery of costs carried. The carried party shall report as oil or gas reserves only its share of proved reserves estimated to remain after payout, and unit-of-production amortization of the carried party's property cost shall not commence prior to payout. Prior to payout the carrying party's reserve estimates and production data shall include the quantities applicable to recoupment of the carried costs (see paragraphs

A part of an operating interest owned may be exchanged for a part of an operating interest owned by another party. The purpose of such an arrangement, commonly called a joint venture in the oil and gas industry, often is to avoid duplication of facilities, diversify risks, and achieve operating efficiencies. No gain or loss shall be recognized by either party at the time of the transaction. In some joint ventures that may or may not involve an exchange of interests, the parties may share different elements of costs in different proportions. In such an arrangement a party may acquire an interest in a property or in wells and related equipment that is disproportionate to the share of costs borne by it. As in the case of a carried interest or a free well, each party shall account for its own cost under the provisions of this Subtopic. No gain shall be recognized for the acquisition of an interest in joint assets, the cost of which may have been paid in whole or in part by another party.

The following is the text of SAB Topic 12.A, Accounting Series Release 257—Requirements for Financial Accounting and Reporting Practices for Oil and Gas Producing Activities.

-   1\. Estimates of Quantities of Proved Reserves
    
-   Facts: Rule 4-10 contains definitions of proved reserves, proved developed reserves, and proved undeveloped reserves to be used in determining quantities of oil and gas reserves to be reported in filings with the Commission.
    
-   Question 1: The definition of proved reserves states that reservoirs are considered proved if "economic producibility is supported by either actual production or conclusive formation test." May oil and gas reserves be considered proved if economic producibility is supported only by core analyses and/or electric or other log interpretations?
    
-   Interpretive Response: Economic producibility of estimated proved reserves can be supported to the satisfaction of the Office of Engineering if geological and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty that those reserves can be recovered in future years under existing economic and operating conditions. The relative importance of the many pieces of geological and engineering data which should be evaluated when classifying reserves cannot be identified in advance. In certain instances, proved reserves may be assigned to reservoirs on the basis of a combination of electrical and other type logs and core analyses which indicate the reservoirs are analogous to similar reservoirs in the same field which are producing or have demonstrated the ability to produce on a formation test.
    
-   Question 2: In determining whether "proved undeveloped reserves" encompass acreage on which fluid injection (or other improved recovery technique) is contemplated, is it appropriate to distinguish between (i) fluid injection used for pressure maintenance during the early life of a field and (ii) fluid injection used to effect secondary recovery when a field is in the late stages of depletion? The definition in Rule 4-10(a)(4) does not make this distinction between pressure maintenance activity and fluid injection undertaken for purposes of secondary recovery.
    
-   Interpretive Response: The Office of Engineering believes that the distinction identified in the above question may be appropriate in a few limited circumstances, such as in the case of certain fields in the North Sea. The staff will review estimates of proved reserves attributable to fluid injection in the light of the strength of the evidence presented by the registrant in support of a contention that enhanced recovery will be achieved.
    
-   Question 3: What volumes of natural gas liquids should be reported as net reserves, that portion recovered in a gas processing plant and allocated to the leasehold interest or the total recovered by a plant from net interest gas?
    
-   Interpretive Response: Companies should report reserves of natural gas liquids which are net to their leasehold interests, i.e., that portion recovered in a processing plant and allocated to the leasehold interest. It may be appropriate in the case of natural gas liquids not clearly attributable to leasehold interests ownership to follow instructions to Item 3 of Securities Act Industry Guide 2 and report such reserves separately and describe the nature of the ownership.
    
-   Question 4: What pressure base should be used for reporting gas and production, 14.73 psia or the pressure base specified by the state?
    
-   Interpretive Response: The reporting instructions to the Department of Energy's Form EIA-28 specify that natural gas reserves are to be reported at 14.73 psia and 60 degrees F. There is no pressure base specified in Regulation S-X or S-K. At the present time the staff will not object to natural gas reserves and production data calculated at other pressure bases, if such other pressure bases are identified in the filing.
    
-   2\. Estimates of Future Net Revenues
    
-   Facts: Paragraphs 30-34 of Statement 69 \[paragraphs
    
    [932-235-50-29 through 50-36](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/235/932/#235-932-50-29)
    
    \] require the disclosure of the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows from production of proved oil and gas reserves, computed by applying year-end prices of oil and gas (with consideration of price changes only to the extent provided by contractual arrangements) to estimated future production as of the latest balance sheet date, less estimated future expenditures (based on current costs) of developing and producing the proved reserves, and assuming continuation of existing economic conditions.
    
-   Question 1: For purposes of determining reserves and estimated future net revenues, what price should be used for gas which will be produced after an existing contract expires or after the redetermination date in a contract?
    
-   Interpretive Response: The price to be used for gas which will be produced after a contract expires or has a redetermination is the current market price at the end of the fiscal year for that category of gas. This price may be increased thereafter only for additional fixed and determinable escalations, as appropriate, for that category of gas. A fixed and determinable escalation is one which is specified in amount and is not based on future events such as rates of inflation.
    
-   Question 2: What price should be applied to gas which at the end of a fiscal year is not yet subject to a gas sales contract?
    
-   Interpretive Response: The price to be used is the current market price for similarly situated gas at the end of the fiscal year provided the company can reasonably expect to sell the gas at the prevailing market price.
    
-   Question 3: To what extent should price increases announced by OPEC or by certain government agencies not yet effective at the date of the reserve report be considered in determining current prices?
    
-   Interpretive Response: Current prices should not reflect price increases announced but not yet effective at the date of the reserve valuation, i.e., the end of the fiscal year.
    
-   3\. Disclosure of Reserve Information
    
-   a. Deleted by SAB 103
    
-   b. Unproved properties.
    
-   Facts: Disclosures of reserve information are based on estimated quantities of proved reserves of oil and gas. Regulation S-K prohibits disclosure of estimated quantities of probable or possible reserves of oil and gas and any estimated value thereof in any document publicly filed with the Commission.
    
-   Question: What types of disclosures will be permitted by registrants who wish to indicate that some of their properties have value other than that attributable to proved reserves?
    
-   Interpretive Response: The Office of Engineering has, for the past several years, suggested to registrants the following form of disclosure for undeveloped lease acreage:
    
-   "In addition to proved reserves, the estimated (or appraised) value of leases or parts of leases to which proved reserves cannot be attributable is $xxx."
    
-   The registrant should describe the basis on which the estimate was made. For example, such estimated values are often based on the market demand for leasehold acreage which, in turn, is based on a number of qualitative factors such as proximity to production. If the disclosed amount is based on an appraisal, the person making the appraisal should be named.

The following is the text of SAB Topic 12.D, Application of Full Cost Method of Accounting.

-   1\. Treatment of Income Tax Effects in the Computation of the Limitation on Capitalized Costs
    
-   Facts: Item (D) of Rule 4-10(c)(4)(i) of Regulation S-X states that the income tax effects related to the properties involved should be deducted in computing the full cost ceiling.
    
-   Question 1: What specific types of income tax effects should be considered in computing the income tax effects to be deducted from estimated future net revenues?
    
-   Interpretive Response: The rule refers to income tax effects generally. Thus, the computation should take into account (i) the tax basis of oil and gas properties, (ii) net operating loss carryforwards, (iii) foreign tax credit carryforwards, (iv) investment tax credits, (v) minimum taxes on tax preference items, and (vi) the impact of statutory (percentage) depletion.
    
-   It may often be difficult to allocate net operating loss carryforwards (NOLs) between oil and gas assets and other assets. However, to the extent that the NOLs are clearly attributable to oil and gas operations and are expected to be realized within the carryforward period, they should be added to tax basis.
    
-   Similarly, to the extent that investment tax credit (ITC) carryforwards and foreign tax credit carryforwards are attributable to oil and gas operations and are expected to be realized within the carryforward period, they should be considered as a deduction from the tax effect otherwise computed. Consideration of NOLs and ITC or foreign tax credit carryforwards should not, of course, reduce the total tax effect below zero.
    
-   Question 2: How should the tax effect be computed considering the various factors discussed above?
    
-   Interpretive Response: Theoretically, taxable income and tax could be determined on a year-by-year basis and the present value of the related tax computed. However, the "shortcut" method illustrated below is also acceptable.

-   2\. Exclusion of Costs From Amortization
    
-   Facts: Rule 4-10(c)(3)(ii) indicates that the costs of acquiring and evaluating unproved properties may be excluded from capitalized costs to be amortized if the costs are unusually significant in relation to aggregate costs to be amortized. Costs of major development projects may also be incurred prior to ascertaining the quantities of proved reserves attributable to such properties.
    
-   Question: At what point should amortization of previously excluded costs commence-when proved reserves have been established or when those reserves become marketable? For instance, a determination of proved reserves may be made before completion of an extraction plant necessary to process sour crude or a pipeline necessary to market the reserves. May the costs continue to be excluded from amortization until the plant or pipeline is in service?
    
-   Interpretive Response: No. The proved reserves and the costs allocable to such reserves should be transferred into the amortization base on an ongoing (well-by-well or property-by-property) basis as the project is evaluated and proved reserves are established.
    
-   Once the determination of proved reserves has been made, there is no justification for continued exclusion from the full cost pool, regardless of whether other factors prevent immediate marketing. Moreover, at the same time that the costs are transferred into the amortization base, it is also necessary in accordance with FASB ASC Subtopic 932-835, Extractive Activities—Oil and Gas—Interest, and FASB ASC Subtopic 835-20, Interest—Capitalization of Interest to terminate capitalization of interest on such properties.
    
-   In this regard, registrants are reminded of their responsibilities not to delay recognizing reserves as proved once they have met the engineering standards.
    
-   3\. Full Cost Ceiling Limitation
    
-   a. Exemptions for purchased properties.
    
-   Facts: During 20x1, a registrant purchases proved oil and gas reserves in place ("the purchased reserves") in an arm's length transaction for the sum of $9.8 million. Primarily because the registrant expects oil and gas prices to escalate, it paid $1.2 million more for the purchased reserves than the "Present Value of Estimated Future Net Revenues" computed as defined in Rule 4-10(c)(4)(i)(A) of Regulation S-X. An analysis of the registrant's full cost center in which the purchased reserves are located at December 31, 20x1 is as follows:
    
    -   ![](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc-img/GUID-190D2DBC-F89C-44D5-A809-89120CBE8509-low.gif)

-   Question: Is it necessary for the registrant to write down the carrying value of its full cost center at December 31, 20x1 by $1,400,000?
    
-   Interpretive Response: Although the net carrying value of the full cost center exceeds the cost center's limitation on capitalized costs, the text of ASR 258 provides that a registrant may request an exemption from the rule if as a result of a major purchase of proved properties, a write down would be required even though the registrant believes the fair value of the properties in a cost center clearly exceeds the unamortized costs.
    
-   Therefore, to the extent that the excess carrying value relates to the purchased reserves, the registrant may seek a temporary waiver of the full-cost ceiling limitation from the staff of the Commission. Registrants requesting a waiver should be prepared to demonstrate that the additional value exists beyond reasonable doubt.
    
-   To the extent that the excess costs relate to properties other than the purchased reserves, however, a write-off should be recorded in the current period. In order to determine the portion of the total excess carrying value which is attributable to properties other than the purchased reserves, it is necessary to perform the ceiling computation on a "with and without" basis as shown in the example above. Thus in this case, the registrant must record a write-down of $200,000 applicable to other reserves. An additional $1,200,000 write-down would be necessary unless a waiver were obtained.
    
-   b. Use of cash flow hedges in the computation of the limitation on capitalized costs.
    
-   Facts: Rule 4-10(c)(4) of Regulation S-X provides, in pertinent part, that capitalized costs, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization, and deferred income taxes, should not exceed an amount equal to the sum of \[components that include\] the present value of estimated future net revenues computed by applying current prices of oil and gas reserves (with consideration of price changes only to the extent provided by contractual arrangements) to estimated future production of proved oil and gas reserves as of the date of the latest balance sheet presented.
    
-   As of the reported balance sheet date, capitalized costs of an oil and gas producing company exceed the full cost limitation calculated under the above described rule based on current spot market prices for oil and natural gas. However, prior to the balance sheet date, the company enters into certain hedging arrangements for a portion of its future natural gas and oil production, thereby enabling the company to receive future cash flows that are higher than the estimated future cash flows indicated by use of the spot market price as of the reported balance sheet date. These arrangements qualify as cash flow hedges under the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and are documented, designated, and accounted for as such under the criteria of that standard.
    
-   Question: Under these circumstances, must the company use the higher prices to be received after taking into account the hedging arrangements ("hedge-adjusted prices") in calculating the current price of the quantities of its future production of oil and gas reserves covered by the hedges as of the reported balance sheet date?
    
-   Interpretive Response: Yes. Derivative contracts that qualify as hedging instruments in a cash flow hedge and are accounted for as such pursuant to FASB ASC Topic 815 represent the type of contractual arrangements for which consideration of price changes should be given under the existing rule. While the SEC staff has objected to previous proposals to consider various hedging techniques as being equivalent to the contractual arrangements permitted under the existing rules, the staff's objection was based on concerns that the lack of clear, consistent guidance in the accounting literature would lead to inconsistent application in practice. However, the staff believes that FASB ASC Topic 815 and related guidance (including a more systematic approach to documentation) provides sufficient guidance so that comparable financial reporting in comparable factual circumstances should result.
    
-   This interpretive response reflects the SEC staff's view that, assuming compliance with the prerequisite accounting requirements, hedge adjusted prices represent the best measure of estimated cash flows from future production of the affected oil and gas reserves to use in calculating the ceiling limitation. Nonetheless, the staff expects that oil and gas producing companies subject to the full cost rules will clearly indicate the effects of using cash flow hedges in calculating ceiling limitations within their financial statement footnotes. The staff further expects that disclosures will indicate the portion of future oil and gas production being hedged. The dollar amount that would have been charged to income had the effects of the cash flow hedges not been considered in calculating the ceiling limitation also should be disclosed.
    
-   The use of hedge-adjusted prices should be consistently applied in all reporting periods, including periods in which the hedge-adjusted price is less than the current spot market price. Oil and gas producers whose computation of the ceiling limitation includes hedge-adjusted prices because of the use of cash flow hedges also should consider the disclosure requirements under the FASB ASC Section 275-10-50, Risks and Uncertainties—Overall—Disclosure. FASB ASC paragraph [275-10-50-9](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/275/10/#275-10-50-9) calls for disclosure when it is at least reasonably possible that the effects of cash flow hedges on capitalized costs on the reported balance sheet date will change in the near term due to one or more confirming events, such as potential future changes in commodity prices.
    
-   In addition, the use of cash flow hedges in calculating the ceiling limitation may represent a type of critical accounting policy that oil and gas producers should consider disclosing consistent with the cautionary advice provided in FR 60. Through this release, the Commission has encouraged companies to include, within their MD&A disclosures, full explanations, in plain English, of the judgments and uncertainties affecting the application of critical accounting policies, and the likelihood that materially different amounts would be reported under different conditions or using different assumptions.
    
-   The staff's guidance on this issue would apply to calculations of ceiling limitations both in interim and annual periods.
    
-   c. Effect of subsequent events on the computation of the limitation on capitalized costs.
    
-   Facts: Rule 4-10(c)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-X provides that an excess of unamortized capitalized costs within a cost center over the related cost ceiling shall be charged to expense in the period the excess occurs.
    
-   Question: Assume that at the date of company's fiscal year-end, its capitalized costs of oil and gas producing properties exceed the limitation prescribed by Rule 4-10(c)(4) of Regulation S-X. Thus, a write down is indicated. Subsequent to year-end but before the date of the auditors' report on the company's financial statements, assume that additional reserves are proved up (excluding the effect of increased oil and gas prices subsequent to year-end) on properties owned at year-end. The present value of future net revenues from the additional reserves is sufficiently large that if the full cost ceiling limitation were recomputed giving effect to those factors as of year-end, the ceiling would more than cover the costs. It is necessary to record a write down?
    
-   Interpretive Response: No. In this case, the proving up of additional reserves on properties owned at year-end or the increase in prices indicates that the capitalized costs were not in fact impaired at year-end. However, for purposes of the revised computation of the "ceiling," the net book costs capitalized as of year-end should be increased by the amount of any additional costs incurred subsequent to year-end to prove the additional reserves or by any related costs previously excluded from amortization.
    
-   While the fact pattern described herein relates to annual periods, the guidance on the effects of subsequent events applies equally to interim period calculations of the ceiling limitation.
    
-   The registrant's financial statements should disclose that capitalized costs exceeded the limitation thereon at year-end and should explain why the excess was not charged against earnings. In addition, the registrant's supplemental disclosures of estimated proved reserve quantities and related future net revenues and costs should not give effect to the reserves proved up or the cost incurred after year-end or to the price increases occurring after year-end. However, such quantities and amounts may be disclosed separately, with appropriate explanations.
    
-   Registrants should be aware that oil and gas reserves related to properties acquired after year-end would not justify avoiding a write-off indicated as of year-end. Similarly, the effects of cash flow hedging arrangements entered into after year-end cannot be factored into the calculation of the ceiling limitation at year-end. Such acquisitions and financial arrangements do not confirm situations existing at year-end.
    
-   4\. Interaction of FASB ASC Subtopic 410-20, Asset Retirement and Environmental Obligations—Asset Retirement Obligations, and the Full Cost Rules
    
-   a. Impact of FASB ASC Subtopic 410-20 on the full cost ceiling test.
    
-   Facts: A company following the full cost method of accounting under Rule 4-10(c) of Regulation S-X must periodically calculate a limitation on capitalized costs, i.e., the full cost ceiling. Under FASB ASC Subtopic 410-20, a company must recognize a liability for an asset retirement obligation (ARO) at fair value in the period in which the obligation is incurred, if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The company also must initially capitalize the associated asset retirement costs by increasing long-lived oil and gas assets by the same amount as the liability. Any asset retirement costs capitalized pursuant to FASB ASC Subtopic 410-20 are subject to the full cost ceiling limitation under Rule 4-10(c)(4) of Regulation S-X. If a company were to continue calculating the full cost ceiling by reducing expected future net revenues by the cash flows required to settle the ARO, then the effect would be to "double-count" such costs in the ceiling test. The assets that must be recovered would be increased while the future net revenues available to recover the assets continue to be reduced by the amount of the ARO settlement cash flows.
    
-   Question: How should a company compute the full cost ceiling to avoid double-counting the expected future cash outflows associated with asset retirement costs?
    
-   Interpretive Response: The future cash outflows associated with settling AROs that have been accrued on the balance sheet should be excluded from the computation of the present value of estimated future net revenues for purposes of the full cost ceiling calculation. <sup class="ph sup">FN1</sup>, <sup class="ph sup">FN2</sup>
    
    -   FN1 If an obligation for expected asset retirement costs has not been accrued under FASB ASC Subtopic 410-20 for certain asset retirement costs required to be included in the full cost ceiling calculation under Rule 4-10(c)(4), such costs should continue to be included in the full cost ceiling calculation.
        
    -   FN2 This approach is consistent with the guidance in FASB ASC Subtopic 410-20 on testing for impairment under FASB ASC Section 360-10-35, Property, Plant, and Equipment—Overall—Subsequent Measurement. Under that guidance, the asset tested should include capitalized asset retirement costs. The estimated cash flows related to the associated ARO that has been recognized in the financial statements are to be excluded from both the undiscounted cash flows used to test for recoverability and the discounted cash flows used to measure the asset's fair value.
        
-   b. Impact of FASB ASC Subtopic 410-20 on the calculation of depreciation, depletion, and amortization.
    
-   Facts: Regarding the base for depreciation, depletion, and amortization (DD&A) of proved reserves, Rule 4-10(c)(3)(i) of Regulation S-X states that "\[c\]osts to be amortized shall include (A) all capitalized costs, less accumulated amortization, other than the cost of properties described in paragraph (ii) below; <sup class="ph sup">FN3</sup> (B) the estimated future expenditures (based on current costs) to be incurred in developing proved reserves; and (C) estimated dismantlement and abandonment costs, net of estimated salvage values." FASB ASC Subtopic 410-20 requires that upon initial recognition of an ARO, the associated asset retirement costs be included in the capitalized costs of the company. Therefore, the estimated dismantlement and abandonment costs described in (C) above may be included in the capitalized costs described in (A) above, at least to the extent that an ARO has been incurred as a result of acquisition, exploration and development activities to date. Future development activities on proved reserves may result in additional asset retirement obligations when such activities are performed and the associated asset retirement costs will be capitalized at that time.
    
    -   FN3 The reference to "cost of properties described in paragraph (ii) below" relates to the costs of investments in unproved properties and major development projects, as defined.
        
-   Question: Should the costs to be amortized under Rule 4-10(c)(3) of Regulation S-X include an amount for estimated dismantlement and abandonment costs, net of estimated salvage values, that are expected to result from future development activities?
    
-   Interpretive Response: Yes. Companies should estimate the amount of dismantlement and abandonment costs that will be incurred as a result of future development activities on proved reserves and include those amounts in the costs to be amortized.

The following is the text of SAB Topic 12.F, Gross Revenue Method of Amortizing Capitalized Costs.

-   Facts: Rule 4-10(c)(3)(iii) of Regulation S-X states in part:
    
-   Amortization shall be computed on the basis of physical units, with oil and gas converted to a common unit of measure on the basis of their approximate relative energy content, unless economic circumstances (related to the effects of regulated prices) indicate that use of units of revenue is a more appropriate basis of computing amortization. In the latter case, amortization shall be computed on the basis of current gross revenues (excluding royalty payments and net profits disbursements) from production in relation to future gross revenues based on current prices (including consideration of changes in existing prices provided only by contractual arrangements), from estimated production of proved oil and gas reserves.
    
-   Question: May entities using the full cost method of accounting for oil and gas producing activities compute amortization based on the gross revenue method described in the above rule when substantial production is not subject to pricing regulation?
    
-   Interpretive Response: Yes. Under the existing rules for cost amortization adopted in ASR 258, the use of the gross revenue method of amortization was permitted in those circumstances where, because of the effect of existing pricing regulations, the use of the units of production method would result in an amortization provision that would be inconsistent with the current prices being received. While the effect of regulation on gas prices has lessened, factors other than price regulation (such as changes in typical contract lengths and methods of marketing natural gas) have caused oil and gas prices to be disproportionate to their relative energy content. The staff therefore believes that it may be more appropriate for registrants to compute amortization based on the gross revenue method whenever oil and gas sales prices are disproportionate to their relative energy content to the extent that the use of the units of production method would result in an improper matching of the costs of oil and gas production against the related revenue received. The method should be consistently applied and appropriately disclosed within the financial statements.

The following is the text of SAB Topic 12.G, Inclusion of Methane Gas in Proved Reserves.

-   Facts: Because of a concern over worldwide oil and gas supplies, Congress, in 1980, provided for tax incentives (credits) for the production of oil and gas from other than conventional sources. As a consequence, significant amounts of gas are now recovered from seams of coal beds. This gas is referred to as coalbed methane. It is produced using conventional drilling methods, but for various reasons, it may be more costly to produce than oil and gas recovered from customary sources and some reserves may not be economical without the tax credits.
    
-   Rule 4-10(a)(1)(i)(A) of Regulation S-X indicates that oil and gas producing activities include the search for crude oil, including condensate and natural gas liquids, or natural gas in their natural states and original locations. Rule 4-10(a)(2)(iii)(D) of Regulation S-X states that estimates of proved reserves do not include (among other things) natural gas that can be recovered from coal. <sup class="ph sup">FN5</sup> In addition, the definition of proved oil and gas reserves includes a provision that the quantities of natural gas be recovered from existing reservoirs. Under these definitions, "coalbed methane" gas has generally not been included in the disclosures in Commission filings required by Statement 69. Further, coalbed methane has generally not been counted in proved oil and gas reserves for purposes of the full cost ceiling test in Rule 4-10(c)(4) since that test is based on the same definition of proved oil and gas reserves.
    
    -   FN5 Similar language appears in Statements 19 and 25 \[paragraph [932-10-15-3](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/932/10/#932-10-15-3)\].
        
-   Question: Is it appropriate to consider coalbed methane gas within the definition of proved reserves for purposes of the disclosures relating to oil and gas producing activities and the full cost ceiling test?
    
-   Interpretive Response: Yes. The prohibition against the inclusion of gas derived from coal was meant to apply to the recovery of hydrocarbons from the processing of coal. The extraction of methane gas from coalbed seams using conventional methods was not contemplated at the time Rule 4-10(a) was developed. The staff believes that, since coalbed methane gas can be recovered from coal in its natural state and original location, it should be included in proved reserves, provided that it complies in all other respects with the definition of proved oil and gas reserves as specified in Rule 4-10(a)(2) including the requirement that methane production be economical at current prices, costs (net of the tax credit) and existing operating conditions. <sup class="ph sup">FN6</sup> Methane gas from coalbeds (like any other hydrocarbon obtained from conventional reservoirs) that cannot be produced at a profit under current economic and operating conditions, or for which there is no market or any existing method of delivery to the market, cannot be included in the category of proved reserves.
    
    -   FN6 Proved oil and gas reserves are the estimated quantities of crude oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids which geological and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future years from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions. (Emphasis added.).
        
-   In instances where methane gas is deemed to be economically producible only as a consequence of existing Federal tax incentives, the staff believes that additional disclosure should be provided as to the specific quantities and values of reported proved reserves that are dependent on existing U.S. tax policy together with any other information necessary to inform readers of the risks attendant with any future change to existing Federal tax policy.

  "summary": "This subtopic tells insurance entities how to account for and report real estate. Real estate is classified by predominant use as either a real estate investment or real estate used in the business, and real estate acquired in settling mortgage guaranty and title insurance claims is a third, separately reported category measured initially at fair value (investments are measured at cost, then cost less accumulated depreciation). Depreciation and impairment charges follow the balance sheet classification — investment income/realized gains and losses for investments, and adjustments to claim costs incurred for real estate acquired in settling claims.",
  "key_points": [
    "Real estate is classified as either a real estate investment or real estate used in the insurance entity's operations, depending on its predominant use (360-944-25-1).",
    "Real estate acquired in settling mortgage guaranty and title insurance claims is measured initially at fair value (360-944-30-1), while real estate investments are measured initially at cost (360-944-30-2) and subsequently at cost less accumulated depreciation (360-944-35-4).",
    "Real estate acquired in settling claims that is held for sale is subsequently measured under Section 360-10-35 (360-944-35-1); subsequent reductions in its carrying amount and realized gains and losses on its sale are recognized as adjustments to claim costs incurred (360-944-35-2; 360-944-40-1).",
    "Depreciation and related charges or credits on real estate investments are charged or credited to investment income (360-944-35-5), and impairment reductions under the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets Subsections of Subtopic 360-10 are included in realized gains and losses (360-944-35-6).",
    "No imputed investment income or rental expense is recognized for real estate used in the business (360-944-35-7).",
    "Realized gains and losses, including on sales of real estate investments, shall not be deferred directly or indirectly (360-944-40-2), and are reported pretax as a component of other income in the statement of earnings (360-944-45-3).",
    "Real estate acquired in settling claims must be reported separately on the balance sheet and not classified as an investment (360-944-45-1); realized gains and losses must be shown as a separate income statement item or disclosed in the notes (360-944-45-4; 360-944-50-1)."

## ASC 360-958: Property, Plant, and Equipment — Not-for-Profit Entities

### Machine-generated study aids

```json
{
  "summary": "This subtopic governs long-lived tangible assets held by not-for-profit entities, including contributed property, plant, and equipment and collection items. Its core rules are that all NFPs must recognize depreciation on long-lived tangible assets (360-958-35-1), that contributed PP&E is recognized under the Contributions Received Subsections of 958-605 with initial measurement including all costs to place the asset in use (360-958-30-1), and that an NFP holding a \"collection\" may elect one of three policies—full capitalization, prospective capitalization, or no capitalization—but capitalizing selected items is precluded (360-958-25-3).",
  "key_points": [
    "All NFPs shall recognize depreciation on long-lived tangible assets (360-958-35-1), and grant or reimbursement 'allowable cost' terms do not affect recognition or measurement of depreciation for financial reporting (360-958-35-7).",
    "Works of art and historical treasures not part of a collection must be recognized as assets (360-958-25-2); contributed collection items need not be recognized, and the NFP must elect capitalization of all items, prospective capitalization, or no capitalization—selective capitalization is precluded (360-958-25-1 through 25-3).",
    "Depreciation need not be recognized on an individual work of art or historical treasure only if verifiable evidence shows both perpetual cultural, aesthetic, or historical value worth preserving and the holder's technological and financial ability to preserve the service potential essentially undiminished, and is doing so (360-958-35-3 through 35-4).",
    "Buildings, structures, landmarks, and monuments—and items comprising collections in the ordinary sense—are depreciated because wear, pollutants, and vibrations use up their service potential (360-958-35-5), and capitalized major preservation or restoration costs are depreciated until the next expected effort (360-958-35-6).",
    "Purpose-restricted contributions of PP&E without a donor time stipulation, and cash restricted for acquiring or constructing PP&E, are reclassified in full to net assets without donor restrictions when the asset is placed in service (360-958-45-1A); an explicit donor time restriction instead releases over the specified period, an amount that may differ from depreciation (360-958-45-1).",
    "An NFP that does not capitalize (or capitalizes prospectively) must show a statement of financial position line item referring to the collections disclosures, and report purchases, sale proceeds, and insurance recoveries of noncapitalized collection items on the face of the statement of activities separately from revenues, expenses, gains, and losses (360-958-45-3, 45-5).",
    "Required disclosures include the capitalization and collection policies and basis of valuation (360-958-50-1), liquidity and limitations on use of PP&E such as liens and donor restrictions (360-958-50-3 through 50-4), and the policy on use of deaccession proceeds including the definition of 'direct care' (360-958-50-7)."

  "audience_level": "intermediate",
  "student_note": "Exam questions focus on the three-way collection capitalization election (all, prospective, or none—never selective) and the narrow exception from depreciation for individual works of art, which requires BOTH perpetual value and demonstrated preservation ability. A common misunderstanding is releasing restrictions on donated PP&E over the asset's useful life; absent an explicit donor time stipulation, the entire amount is reclassified when the asset is placed in service.",

The process of using up the future economic benefit or service potential of land often takes place over a period so long that its occurrence is imperceptible—land used as a building site is perhaps the most common example. In contrast, however, that process also sometimes occurs much more rapidly—land used as a site for toxic waste, as a source of gravel or ore, or for farming under conditions in which fertility dissipates relatively quickly and cannot be restored economically are examples.

Consistent with the accepted practice for land used as a building site, depreciation need not be recognized on an individual work of art or historical treasure whose economic benefit or service potential is used up so slowly that its estimated useful life is extraordinarily long. A work of art or historical treasure shall be deemed to have that characteristic only if verifiable evidence exists demonstrating both of the following characteristics:

1.  a
    
    The asset individually has cultural, aesthetic, or historical value that is worth preserving perpetually.
    
2.  b
    
    The holder has the technological and financial ability to protect and preserve essentially undiminished the service potential of the asset and is doing that.

A recognized cultural, aesthetic, or historical value and, generally, an already long existence have established each work of art or historical treasure as a member of a group of rare works with that characteristic. Most of them are acquired by purchase, gift, or discovery with that characteristic already having been demonstrated, and the holder or acquirer usually takes steps to protect and preserve it, for example, by keeping a work of art in a protective environment and limiting its use solely to display. While that characteristic is not limited to assets with an already long existence, an asset that has come into existence relatively recently cannot be assumed to have it in the absence of the verifiable evidence described in the preceding paragraph. For example, to put a painting in a protective environment is not by itself evidence of cultural, aesthetic, or historical value that is worth preserving perpetually.

If future contributions without donor restrictions to the entity as a whole are not considered, the sum of the expected future cash flows may be negative or positive but less than the carrying amount of the asset. For example, the costs of administering a museum may exceed the admission fees charged, but the museum may fund the cash flow deficit with contributions without donor restrictions.

For example, a gift of cash with a donor stipulation that it be used for emergency-relief efforts has a negligible impact on an entity if emergency relief is one of its major ongoing programs.") of property, plant, and equipment, including information about limitations on their use.

## ASC 360-960: Property, Plant, and Equipment — Plan Accounting—Defined Benefit Pension Plans

### Machine-generated study aids

```json
{
  "summary": "This Subtopic governs how a defined benefit pension plan accounts for property, plant, and equipment it uses in operating the plan (buildings, equipment, furniture and fixtures, leasehold improvements). Unlike plan investments, which are generally reported at fair value, these operating assets are presented at cost less accumulated depreciation or amortization (360-960-35-1). The rationale is that expenditures for operating assets are advance payments for future administrative services rather than investments expected to generate cash flows to pay benefits (360-960-35-2).",

Expenditures for operating assets are in the nature of advance payments for future administrative services. In that respect they differ from investments that are expected to generate future cash flows that will be used to provide [benefits](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/b/#benefits "The monetary or in-kind benefits or benefit coverage to which participants may be entitled under a pension plan or a health and welfare plan (which can include active, terminated, and retired employees or their dependents or beneficiaries).

However, assets held in a trust that explicitly provides that such assets are available to the general creditors of the employer in the event of the employer's bankruptcy would not qualify as plan assets."><span>Plan Assets</span></a> (1st def.)</td><td class="entry">Added</td><td class="entry"><a href="https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/updates/asu-2014-06/" class="xref">Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-06</a></td><td class="entry">03/14/2014</td></tr><tr><td class="entry"></td><td class="entry"></td><td class="entry"></td><td class="entry"></td></tr><tr><td class="entry"><a href="https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/965/#360-965-35-1" class="xref">965-360-35-1</a></td><td class="entry">Amended</td><td class="entry"><a href="https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/updates/asu-2014-06/" class="xref">Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-06</a></td><td class="entry">03/14/2014</td></tr><tr><td class="entry"><a href="https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/965/#360-965-35-2" class="xref">965-360-35-2</a></td><td class="entry">Amended</td><td class="entry"><a href="https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/updates/asu-2012-04/" class="xref">Accounting Standards Update No. 2012-04</a></td><td class="entry">10/01/2012</td></tr></tbody></table>

[Plan assets](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/p/#plan-assets "Assets—usually stocks, bonds, and other investments (except certain insurance contracts as noted in paragraph 715-60-35-109)—that have been segregated and restricted (usually in a trust) to be used for a health and welfare plan (which can include active, terminated, and retired employees or their dependents or beneficiaries). The amount of plan assets includes amounts contributed by the employer, and by plan participants for a contributory plan, and amounts earned from investing the contributions, less benefits, income taxes, and other expenses incurred. Plan assets ordinarily cannot be withdrawn by the employer except under certain circumstances when a plan has assets in excess of obligations and the employer has taken certain steps to satisfy existing obligations. Securities of the employer held by the plan are includable in plan assets provided they are transferable. Assets not segregated in a trust, or otherwise effectively restricted, so that they cannot be used by the employer for other purposes are not plan assets, even though the employer may intend that those assets be used to provide health and welfare benefits, which may include postretirement benefits. Those assets shall be accounted for in the same manner as other employer assets of a similar nature and with similar restrictions. If a plan has liabilities other than for benefits, those nonbenefit obligations are considered as reductions of plan assets. Amounts accrued by the employer but not yet paid to the plan are not plan assets. If a trust arrangement explicitly provides that segregated assets are available to satisfy claims of creditors in bankruptcy, such a provision would effectively permit those assets to be used for other purposes at the discretion of the employer. It is not necessary to determine that a trust is bankruptcy-proof for the assets of the trust to qualify as plan assets. However, assets held in a trust that explicitly provides that such assets are available to the general creditors of the employer in the event of the employer's bankruptcy would not qualify as plan assets.") used in plan operations shall be reported at cost less accumulated depreciation or amortization and may consist of any of the following:

## ASC 360-970: Property, Plant, and Equipment — Real Estate—General

### Machine-generated study aids

```json
{
  "summary": "ASC 360-970 gathers the real estate–specific property, plant, and equipment guidance in two sets of subsections: Real Estate Syndication and Real Estate Project Costs. It requires costs clearly associated with the acquisition, development, and construction of a real estate project to be capitalized and then allocated to project components (by specific identification, then relative fair value/sales value, then area methods), addresses donated and abandoned real estate and changes in use, and applies the Subtopic 360-10 impairment model project by project. For syndications, fees paid to and rentals received from a developer-seller under a master leaseback are adjustments to the basis of the property.",
  "key_points": [
    "Payments to and receipts from a developer-seller under a master leaseback negotiated with a real estate syndication are treated by the syndication as adjustments to the basis of the property, affecting future depreciation (360-970-25-1; 360-970-55-2).",
    "Project costs clearly associated with acquisition, development, and construction of a real estate project shall be capitalized as a cost of that project, and indirect project costs relating to several projects shall be capitalized and allocated among them (360-970-25-2 through 25-3).",
    "Capitalized costs are assigned to individual project components by specific identification; if impracticable, land and common costs (including amenities) are allocated to benefited parcels on relative fair value before construction and construction costs to units on relative sales value, and if that too is impracticable, by area or other value methods (360-970-30-1).",
    "Real estate donated to municipalities or governmental agencies for uses benefiting the project is not an abandonment; its cost is allocated as a common cost of the project (360-970-35-1).",
    "On a change in use under a formal plan expected to produce a higher economic yield, costs charged to expense are limited to the excess of capitalized costs incurred and to be incurred over the estimated value of the revised project when substantially complete (360-970-35-2).",
    "Impairment follows Subtopic 360-10 (held-for-sale model for substantially completed projects to be sold; held-and-used model for property under or awaiting development and completed projects to be held for rental), evaluated on an individual-project basis, where a project consists of relatively homogeneous integral components (360-970-35-3); insufficient rental demand for a rental project under construction is an additional impairment indicator (360-970-35-4).",
    "If real estate or rights to real estate are abandoned (e.g., allowing a mortgage foreclosure or option lapse), the capitalized costs shall be expensed and not allocated to other components or projects (360-970-40-1)."

Students often wrongly test impairment at the multiphase-development level; each homogeneous project (tract, condo complex, subdivision) is evaluated separately.",

Changes in the use of real estate comprising a project or a portion of a project may arise after significant development and construction costs have been incurred. If the change in use is made pursuant to a formal plan for a project that is expected to produce a higher economic yield (as compared to its yield based on use before change), the development and construction costs to be charged to expense shall be limited to the amount by which the capitalized costs incurred and to be incurred exceed the estimated value of the revised project when it is substantially complete and ready for its intended use.

The provisions in Subtopic 360-10 for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale shall apply to a real estate project, or parts thereof, that is substantially completed and that is to be sold. The provisions in that Topic for long-lived assets to be held and used shall apply to real estate held for development, including property to be developed in the future as well as that currently under development, and to a real estate project, or parts thereof, that is substantially completed and that is to be held and used (for example, for rental). Determining whether the carrying amounts of real estate projects require recognition of an impairment loss shall be based on an evaluation of individual projects. An individual project, for this purpose, consists of components that are relatively homogeneous, integral parts of a whole (for example, individual houses in a residential tract, individual units in a condominium complex, and individual lots in a subdivision and [amenities](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/a/#amenities "Features that enhance the attractiveness or perceived value of a time-sharing interval.

Under the terms of the agreement, the syndication pays a fee to the seller and the seller leases the vacant space at a market rate, at the sale date, for a two-year period. This payment is described as a fee in exchange for signing a master lease or as an escrowed portion of the purchase price. The syndication will relieve the seller of its future lease payment obligations on space the seller subsequently subleases to others if the sublease meets certain criteria. If the seller is unable to lease the vacant space during the two-year period, the rental payments to the syndication would substantially exceed the fee paid by the syndication.

Paragraph [970-360-25-1](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/970/#360-970-25-1) states payments to and receipts from the seller should be treated by the syndication as adjustments to the basis of the property and will affect future depreciation.

Topic 815 would apply if the terms of the agreement meet the definition of a derivative. The agreement would typically meet the scope exception in paragraph [815-10-15-13](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/815/10/#815-10-15-13) relating to the sales or service revenues of one of the parties to the contract since the underlying is the leasing rental revenue of the syndicate, in which case that Topic would not affect the accounting in this example.

## ASC 360-972: Property, Plant, and Equipment — Real Estate—Common Interest Realty Associations

### Machine-generated study aids

```json
{
  "summary": "This Subtopic tells common interest realty associations (CIRAs) — cooperatives, condominium associations, and homeowners associations — when to recognize common real and personal property as assets, how to measure it, and what to disclose. Cooperatives recognize all common real property because they hold title and can dispose of it and keep the proceeds; other CIRAs generally do not recognize real property directly associated with the units, and recognize property not directly associated with the units only if they have title or other evidence of ownership plus disposal discretion or significant cash-flow generation. Recognized property is measured at cost (or fair value if acquired in a nonmonetary transaction such as a developer transfer) and depreciated over estimated useful lives.",
  "key_points": [
    "Cooperatives shall recognize common real property as assets because they hold title and can dispose of it and retain the proceeds (360-972-25-1).",
    "Most non-cooperative CIRAs do not recognize as assets real property directly associated with the units, whether or not they hold title (360-972-25-2).",
    "Non-cooperative CIRAs recognize real property not directly associated with the units when they have title or other evidence of ownership and either (a) the board may dispose of it for cash and retain the proceeds or (b) it generates significant cash flows from members based on usage or from nonmembers (360-972-25-3); some CIRAs recognize all such titled property regardless of those conditions (360-972-25-4).",
    "Common personal property used in operating, preserving, maintaining, repairing, and replacing common property — furnishings, recreational and maintenance equipment, work vehicles — shall be recognized as assets (360-972-25-5).",
    "Recognized common property is initially measured at cost if acquired in a monetary transaction, or at fair value at the acquisition date if acquired in a nonmonetary transaction such as a nonreciprocal transfer from the developer (the developer's cost may help estimate fair value) (360-972-30-1).",
    "Property and equipment recognized as assets shall be depreciated over estimated useful lives (360-972-35-1).",
    "Required disclosures include the recognition and measurement policy, descriptions of common property both recognized and not recognized, the CIRA's maintenance responsibility, land/recreation lease terms, use and disposition restrictions (360-972-50-1), and depreciation expense, major classes of depreciable assets, accumulated depreciation, and depreciation methods (360-972-50-3); all property owned by a cooperative is presented on its balance sheet (360-972-50-2)."

Cooperatives shall recognize common real property as assets. Because of their legal structure, cooperatives have title to all their [common property](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/c/#common-property "A common interest realty association's real or personal property to which title or other evidence of ownership is held by either: Individual members in common The common interest realty association directly.") and have the authority to dispose of it and retain the proceeds. Other [common interest realty associations](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/c/#common-interest-realty-association "An association, also known as a community association, responsible for the governance of the common interest community, for which it was established to serve. A common interest realty association is generally funded by its members via periodic assessments by the common interest realty association so that it can perform its duties, which include management services and maintenance, repair, and replacement of the common property, among other duties established in the governing documents and by state statute."), such as [condominiums](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/c/#condominium "A form of ownership of real property that combines exclusive ownership of a defined space and an undivided interest in the common elements. (Also referred to as a condo.) A common interest realty association is not a condominium unless the undivided interests in the common elements are vested in the unit owners.") and [homeowners associations](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/h/#homeowners-association "See Association."), have adopted other practices for recognizing common real property.

Most common interest realty associations other than cooperatives recognize real property not directly associated with the units as assets when the common interest realty association has title or other evidence of ownership of the property and any of the following conditions are met:

1.  a
    
    The common interest realty association can dispose of the property, at the discretion of its board of directors, for cash or claims to cash, with the common interest realty association retaining the proceeds.
    
2.  b
    
    The property is used by the common interest realty association to generate significant cash flows from members on the basis of usage or from nonmembers.

## ASC 360-980: Property, Plant, and Equipment — Regulated Operations

### Machine-generated study aids

```json
{
  "summary": "This Subtopic tells regulated entities (utilities) how to account for property, plant, and equipment in three situations: plant abandonments, disallowances of costs of recently completed plants, and capitalization of an allowance for funds used during construction (AFUDC). When abandonment becomes probable, the asset's cost comes out of construction work-in-process or plant-in-service and a separate new asset is recorded — at full cost if a full return on investment is likely to be provided, or at the present value of expected future recovery revenues (discounted at the entity's incremental borrowing rate) if partial or no return is likely, with the shortfall and any probable, estimable disallowance recognized as a loss. When it becomes probable that part of the cost of a recently completed plant will be disallowed for rate-making purposes and the amount is reasonably estimable, that amount is deducted from the plant's reported cost and recognized as a loss.",
  "key_points": [
    "AFUDC, including a designated cost of equity funds, may be capitalized as part of the asset's acquisition cost only if its subsequent inclusion in allowable costs for rate-making purposes is probable (360-980-25-1).",
    "When abandonment of an operating asset or asset under construction becomes probable, its cost must be removed from construction work-in-process or plant-in-service (360-980-35-1).",
    "If full return on investment is likely, any probable and reasonably estimable disallowance is a loss and the remaining cost is reported as a separate new asset; if partial or no return is likely, the new asset equals the present value of expected future recovery revenues (discounted at the incremental borrowing rate) and any excess cost is a loss (360-980-35-3).",
    "If the expected recovery period is a range, Section 450-20-55 applies: use the most likely period, or the minimum period if no point in the range is a better estimate (360-980-35-3(b)).",
    "Between recognition of the new asset and the start of recovery, a carrying charge accrues at the allowed overall cost of capital (full return case) or at the discount rate used for the present value (partial/no return case); during recovery the asset is amortized per rate-making methods or so as to produce a constant return equal to the discount rate (360-980-35-7; 35-8).",
    "Estimates of the new asset are updated as new information arises (the rate order is usually the confirming event), with adjustments recognized in income as a loss or gain, but the carrying amount is never adjusted for changes in the incremental borrowing rate (360-980-35-4; 35-6).",
    "A probable and reasonably estimable disallowance of part of a recently completed plant's cost — including an explicit but indirect disallowance, such as excluding part of the plant from rate base or an agreed cost cap — is deducted from reported plant cost and recognized as a loss (360-980-35-12; 35-13; 35-15)."

Paragraph [980-835-25-1](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/835/980/#835-980-25-1) requires an [allowance for funds used during construction](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/a/#allowance-for-funds-used-during-construction "The cost of financing construction as financed partially by borrowings and partially by equity, capitalized as part of the cost of plant and equipment pursuant to requirements of the regulator."), including a designated cost of equity funds, to be capitalized in specified circumstances as part of the acquisition cost of the related asset. That cost shall be capitalized under those circumstances only if its subsequent inclusion in [allowable costs](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/a/#allowable-costs "All costs for which revenue is intended to provide recovery. Those costs can be actual or estimated. In that context, allowable costs include interest cost and amounts provided for earnings on shareholders' investments.") for rate-making purposes is probable.

The entity shall determine whether recovery of any allowed cost is likely to be provided with either of the following:

That determination shall focus on the facts and circumstances related to the specific abandonment and shall also consider the past practice and current policies of the applicable regulatory jurisdiction on abandonment situations. Based on that determination, the entity shall account for the cost of the abandoned plant as follows:

1.  a
    
    Full return on investment is likely to be provided. Any disallowance of all or part of the cost of the abandoned plant that is both probable and reasonably estimable (as defined in Topic 450) shall be recognized as a loss, and the carrying basis of the recorded asset shall be correspondingly reduced. The remainder of the cost of the abandoned plant shall be reported as a separate new asset.
    
2.  b
    
    Partial or no return on investment is likely to be provided. Any disallowance of all or part of the cost of the abandoned plant that is both probable and reasonably estimable shall be recognized as a loss. The present value of the future revenues expected to be provided to recover the allowable cost of that abandoned plant and return on investment, if any, shall be reported as a separate new asset. Any excess of the remainder of the cost of the abandoned plant over that present value also shall be recognized as a loss. The discount rate used to compute the present value shall be the entity's incremental borrowing rate, that is, the rate that the entity would have to pay to borrow an equivalent amount for a period equal to the expected recovery period. In determining the present value of expected future revenues, the entity shall consider such matters as the following:
    
    1.  1
        
        The probable time period before such recovery is expected to begin
        
    2.  2
        
        The probable time period over which recovery is expected to be provided.
        
    
    If the estimate of either period is a range, the guidance in Section 450-20-55 shall be applied to determine the loss to be recognized. Accordingly, the most likely period within that range shall be used to compute the present value. If no period within that range is a better estimate than any other, the present value shall be based on the minimum time period within that range.

The recorded amount of the new asset shall be adjusted from time to time as necessary if new information indicates that the estimates used to record the separate new asset have changed. The rate order is usually viewed as the confirming event, permitting an estimate of the loss to be refined at that time. However, a loss shall not be recognized unless it is probable that a loss has occurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. If those criteria are not met at the time of an initial rate order, the loss shall not be recognized at that time.

During the period between the date on which the new asset is recognized and the date on which recovery begins, the carrying amount shall be increased by accruing a carrying charge. The rate used to accrue that carrying charge shall be as follows:

Usually, the net loss on an abandonment shall be computed by discounting the after-tax future revenues expected to be allowed by the regulator at an after-tax incremental borrowing rate and comparing the result to the recorded net investment in the abandoned plant. If that discounted present value is less than the recorded net investment, a net loss shall be recognized. However, the present accounting model generally does not permit display of losses on a net-of-tax basis. As a result, the net loss on an abandonment is grossed up for display purposes.

The computation of a loss on an abandonment (see Example 1 \[paragraph [980-360-55-2](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/980/#360-980-55-2)\]) is intended to approximate the economic effects of the regulator's rate actions in the preceding paragraph. The computation is based on both of the following general assumptions about the rate-making methods used for income taxes:

1.  a
    
    Deferred income taxes are allocated to the assets that resulted in those deferred income taxes. Under that assumption, if certain assets are included in the rate base (that is, a return is allowed on those assets), the deferred income taxes allocated to those assets are deducted from the rate base in computing the investment on which a return will be allowed. Similarly, if certain assets are excluded from the rate base (that is, a return is not allowed on those assets), the deferred income taxes allocated to those assets are not deducted from the rate base in computing the investment on which a return will be allowed.
    
2.  b
    
    Income taxes that result from recovery of the recorded cost of the abandoned plant will be treated as [allowable costs](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/a/#allowable-costs "All costs for which revenue is intended to provide recovery. Those costs can be actual or estimated. In that context, allowable costs include interest cost and amounts provided for earnings on shareholders' investments.") when those income taxes become payable to the extent those income taxes do not represent repayment of an income tax benefit that has already accrued to the entity's shareholders.

If the rate-making methods used for an entity differ from the assumptions stated in the preceding paragraph, the computation used to compute the loss on the abandonment shall be different from that described in paragraph [980-360-35-9](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/980/#360-980-35-9) and illustrated in Example 1 (see paragraph [980-360-55-2](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/980/#360-980-55-2)). The computation shall be changed to reflect the different economics of those different rate-making methods. For example, if the regulator deducts all existing deferred income taxes from the rate base in determining the investment on which a return will be provided (instead of allocating deferred income taxes between items included in the rate base and items excluded from the rate base), the procedure effectively disallows a return on the gross investment in the abandoned plant instead of disallowing a return on the net investment, and the recognized loss shall reflect a disallowance of a return on the gross investment in the abandoned plant.

When it becomes probable that part of the cost of a recently completed plant will be disallowed for rate-making purposes and a reasonable estimate of the amount of the disallowance can be made, the estimated amount of the probable disallowance shall be deducted from the reported cost of the plant and recognized as a loss. Section 450-20-55 provides guidance for making a reasonable estimate of the amount of a loss. If part of the cost is explicitly, but indirectly, disallowed (for example, by an explicit disallowance of return on investment on a portion of the plant), an equivalent amount of cost shall be deducted from the reported cost of the plant and recognized as a loss.

Excess capacity disallowances relate to part of the cost of service of a recently completed plant and are based on a finding that an entity's reserve capacity exceeds an amount deemed to be reasonable. If an excess capacity disallowance is ordered by a regulator without a specific finding that the entity should not have constructed that capacity or should have delayed the construction of that capacity, the rate order raises questions about whether the entity meets the criteria of paragraph [980-10-15-2](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/980/10/#980-10-15-2) for application of this Topic, in that it is not being regulated based on its own cost of service. However, because such a rate order itself is neither a direct disallowance nor an explicit, but indirect, disallowance of part of the cost of the plant, this Section does not specify the accounting for it. If an excess capacity disallowance is ordered by a regulator with a specific finding that the entity should not have constructed that capacity or should have delayed the construction of that capacity, the rate order may be an explicit, but indirect, disallowance of part of the cost of the plant, and the entity shall account for the substance of that order as set forth in the preceding paragraph.

If a regulator has included a recently completed plant in rates based on the assumed cost of another plant rather than based on the cost of the plant that exists, then the entity is not being regulated based on its own cost, and the criteria of paragraph [980-10-15-2](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/980/10/#980-10-15-2) for application of this Topic do not appear to be met.

This Example illustrates how a loss on an abandonment should be computed under the guidance in Section 450-20-55 and paragraphs

[980-360-35-9 through 35-11](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/980/#360-980-35-9)

by an entity that has applied Subtopic 740-10. The Example is based on specific rate actions related to the abandonment and on the other assumptions stated. The computations may need to be changed to reflect the economic effects of different fact situations.

The principal assumptions on which the Example is based are as follows:

1.  a
    
    Upon initial application of Subtopic 740-10, an entity that meets the criteria of paragraph [980-10-15-2](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/980/10/#980-10-15-2) for application of this Topic will adjust its deferred income tax liabilities as required. This Example is presented as though the entity has already applied Subtopic 740-10 prior to the date of the abandonment. If an entity initially applies that Subtopic after a loss has been recognized on an abandonment and before the end of the recovery period for any recoverable costs, the amount of the previously recognized loss may change. The amount of that loss will change if the tax rate used in the initial net-of-tax discount rate under that Subtopic is different from that used by the entity previously. Once that Subtopic is initially applied, the accounting for the abandonment should follow the approach described in this Example.
    
2.  b
    
    This Example assumes a tax rate of 34 percent.
    
3.  c
    
    Utility A decides to abandon a plant that has been under construction for some time. Although the possibility of abandoning the plant has been under consideration, abandonment was not considered probable before the actual decision was made.
    
4.  d
    
    Immediately before the abandonment, the recorded assets for the plant and related deferred income tax liabilities are as follows.
    
    -   ![ ](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc-img/GUID-493F234E-01C9-469C-B94B-6CDFC7FDA583-low.gif)
        
        Assets Deferred Income Tax Liabilities Recorded plant and related deferred income tax liabilities " $750,500,000 " " $85,170,000 " Asset representing revenue that will be provided for payment of income taxes and related deferred income tax liabilities " 76,015,152 " " 25,845,152 " Total " $826,515,152 " " $111,015,152 "
        
5.  e
    
    For income tax purposes, the abandoned plant has a basis of $500 million at the date of the abandonment.
    
6.  f
    
    Utility A will deduct the remaining tax basis of the abandoned plant ($500,000,000) as an abandonment loss on its income tax return in the year of the abandonment and will receive a tax benefit of 34 percent of the tax basis of the plant ($170,000,000). Utility A operates in a state that has no state income taxes. The federal income tax rate is 34 percent.
    
7.  g
    
    Accounting pretax income before the loss on the abandonment and taxable income before any deduction for the loss on the abandonment are both $1,500,000,000. Utility A has no other temporary differences or tax credits.
    
8.  h
    
    Utility A operates solely in a single-state jurisdiction.
    
9.  i
    
    In the past, Utility A's regulator has permitted recovery of amounts prudently invested in abandoned plants over an extended period of time without a return on unrecovered investment during the recovery period.
    
10.  j
     
     The normal practice of Utility A's regulator is to allocate deferred income taxes to assets on which return on investment is disallowed. Deferred taxes allocated to assets excluded from the rate base are not deducted from the rate base for purposes of computing allowable return on investment.
     
11.  k
     
     Utility A's regulator normally treats income taxes that were not previously provided as [allowable costs](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/a/#allowable-costs "All costs for which revenue is intended to provide recovery. Those costs can be actual or estimated. In that context, allowable costs include interest cost and amounts provided for earnings on shareholders' investments.") if they result from recovery of other allowable costs.
     
12.  l
     
     Utility A's incremental borrowing rate at the date of the decision to abandon the plant is 14 percent, interest payable monthly.
     
13.  m
     
     Utility A believes that it is probable that recovery of cost without return on investment during the recovery period will be granted over a period that will not be less than 5 years nor more than 10 years, but it has no basis for estimating the exact time period that the regulator will select.
     
14.  n
     
     At the date of the abandonment, Utility A believes that it will take approximately 18 months to obtain a rate order covering the abandoned plant.
     
15.  o
     
     No disallowance of recorded cost is expected.
     
16.  p
     
     A rate order covering the abandoned plant is received in the 18th month following the abandonment. There is no disallowance of recorded costs of the abandoned plant. Those recorded costs are to be recovered over 60 months commencing in the 19th month after abandonment.

Because the amount of deferred taxes related to the remaining investment is both a component of the net investment on which return would be based in the regulatory process and based on the amount of the accounting loss on the abandonment (which is based on the present value of the net investment), the present value of the net investment cannot be derived through a simple present value calculation using a pretax rate. That present value could be derived through a series of iterative calculations, starting with an assumed loss and the resulting deferred tax amounts, then computing the accrual of return on investment and amortization by applying the pretax rate to the resulting net investment, and then computing the income tax effects of the resulting pretax income. Using the remaining asset at the end of the recovery period, the estimate of the loss could be refined until the accrual of a return, amortization, recovery of recorded costs, and the related tax effects resulted in a zero net asset at the end of the recovery period. Alternatively, the net loss can be initially computed based on a present value calculation using an after-tax rate. While that approach is used in this Example, either approach will provide the same result. The following paragraphs illustrate how that approach can be used and the resulting computations of loss recognition, return to be accrued, and amortization.

When the abandonment becomes probable (in this case, at the date of the decision to abandon), Utility A should remove the recorded cost of the plant from the construction work-in-process accounts. Any disallowance of the recorded cost that is probable and can be reasonably estimated should also be recorded as a loss. There is none in this Example. Utility A should record a separate new asset, representing the future revenues expected to result from the regulator's treatment of the cost of the abandoned plant, at the present value of those expected future revenues.

The next step is to compute the deferred income tax liabilities that would be recorded if the tax consequences of the abandonment were recognized before any loss related to the disallowance of return on investment were recognized. When the tax basis of the abandoned plant is deducted as an abandonment loss on the current year's tax return, an additional $500,000,000 of the recorded cost of the asset will be without tax basis. Recovery of that additional amount will result in $500,000,000 of taxable income. The deferred income tax liability on that amount should be computed in accordance with Subtopic 740-10. This Example assumes that the rate is the statutory rate of 34 percent and that Utility A should recognize additional deferred income tax liabilities of $170,000,000.

The amount of tax benefit that resulted from the current deduction of the abandonment loss is also $170,000,000, so no additional asset representing revenue that will be provided for the payment of income taxes should be recognized. Thus, the recorded balance sheet items related to the plant after the abandonment, but before any loss for disallowance of return on investment is recognized, and the resulting net investment should be as follows.

The cash flows provided to recover the asset should be estimated to begin in 19 months. For purposes of computing the present value of the net investment, the probable future after-tax revenues would be estimated at $9,091,667 per month for 5 years (based on an assumed straight-line recovery of the net investment over the 5-year minimum period within the range— $545,500,000/60). The discount rate used should be 9.24 percent (14 percent net of tax at the rate computed in paragraph [980-360-55-6](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/980/#360-980-55-6)). The computation of the amount to be recorded for the new asset and of the loss resulting from the abandonment would be as follows.

Pending receipt of a rate order, Utility A should accrue carrying charges on the net recorded asset at a monthly rate of 1/12 of 14 percent. Taxes should be provided on those accrued carrying charges based on the rate required to adjust the accumulated deferred income tax liabilities to the amounts required by Subtopic 740-10. Usually, that rate will be the statutory rate. The following table illustrates those computations based on the statutory rate.

Based on the rate order (see paragraph [980-360-55-3(n)](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/980/#360-980-55-3)), revenues actually allowed would be $13,775,253 per month ($826,515,152/60). Earnings should continue to be recognized each month equal to 1/12 of 14 percent of the remaining net investment, and taxes should continue to be provided on those earnings at the rate required to adjust the recorded deferred income tax liabilities to the amount required by Subtopic 740-10. Usually that rate would be the statutory rate. The following table illustrates those computations using the 34 percent statutory rate.

In the event of a change in tax rates, the accumulated deferred income tax liabilities should be adjusted to the computed liability at the new rates. If the change in tax rates causes a reduction of the recorded deferred income tax liability, that reduction would usually result in a reduction of the recorded asset representing revenue that will be provided for payment of income taxes. If the change in tax rates causes an increase of the recorded deferred income tax liability, that increase would usually result in an increase of the recorded asset representing revenue that will be provided for payment of income taxes. However, the regulator's expected rate actions could change that result.

Assume that Utility B operates in two state jurisdictions. After an extensive prudence investigation, the regulator in one of those state jurisdictions disallows $865 million of the $3.6 billion total cost of Utility B's recently completed nuclear generating plant. That state jurisdiction represents approximately 50 percent of Utility B's operations, and approximately 50 percent of the output of the recently completed plant is expected to be used in that state. The tax basis of the plant is $2.4 billion. The regulator indicates that the tax benefit from a ratable portion of depreciation will be given to the shareholders as a result of the disallowance. After consultation with counsel, Utility B decides that it should not appeal the regulator's disallowance. The regulator in Utility B's other state jurisdiction has not participated in the prudence investigation, and there is no indication that a similar disallowance is likely in that jurisdiction.

Utility B should recognize the effective disallowance as a loss. Because only 50 percent of the plant's cost will be recoverable from customers in the state, the effective disallowance is 50 percent of the amount disallowed, or $432.5 million. The disallowance should be recognized when the disallowance is probable and the amount of the disallowance can be reasonably estimated, and those conditions are met in this case. The tax benefit of the loss will be realized as future depreciation is taken for income tax purposes. Since the tax benefit of the plant is based on $2.4 billion and the cost of the plant prior to the disallowance is $3.6 billion, only two-thirds of the loss is available for tax benefit. A deferred tax benefit, based on two-thirds of the loss, can be recognized when the loss is recognized providing that benefit meets the criteria of Subtopic 740-10 for recognition.

Assume that Utility C, which operates solely in one state jurisdiction, is constructing a new electric generating plant. Completion is expected to take approximately one year. The cost of the plant, which was originally expected to be $1.25 billion, is now estimated to be as follows.

Various parties have charged that certain cost increases were a result of imprudent management of the construction.

To avoid the cost and time delay that would be involved in a full-scale prudence investigation of the construction of the plant, Utility C and its regulator agree that the total cost of the plant that will be allowable in determining depreciation and that will be allowed in Utility C's rate base will be $3.4 billion. If the eventual cost of the plant exceeds that cap, a ratable portion of the tax benefit of depreciation will accrue to the benefit of the shareholders. For tax purposes, the plant is expected to have a net depreciable basis of $2.0 billion.

The loss that results from the disallowance inherent in the cost cap would be computed as follows.

After the loss is recognized, an [allowance for funds used during construction](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/a/#allowance-for-funds-used-during-construction "The cost of financing construction as financed partially by borrowings and partially by equity, capitalized as part of the cost of plant and equipment pursuant to requirements of the regulator.") would continue to be recorded based on the remaining recorded costs. Subsequently, if additional increases in the cost of the plant become probable and those costs are not allowable under the agreed cost cap, those increases would also be recognized as losses from disallowances when they become probable.

If the regulator ordered a cost cap that Utility C did not agree to, Utility C would have to assess whether the criteria of Topic 450 for loss recognition are met. If those criteria are met, the accounting would be as indicated above. Otherwise, no loss would be recognized until that loss was probable and could be reasonably estimated. Because of the possible disallowance inherent in the cost cap, it may no longer be probable that some amount of allowance for funds used during construction will be included in allowable costs in the future, and that amount may be reasonably estimable. In that case, that amount of allowance for funds used during construction would not be capitalized.

Assume that Utility D operates solely in a single-state jurisdiction. On January 1, 19X1, Utility D's new electric generating plant becomes operational. The cost of that plant is $1 billion.

Utility D's regulator concludes that part of the cost of the recently completed plant was imprudently incurred. However, rather than disallow the specific costs that were imprudent, the regulator instead excludes 10 percent ($100 million) of the plant from the rate base, thereby providing no return on investment on that portion of the plant. The regulator does not intend any part of the tax benefit of depreciation to accrue to the benefit of Utility D's shareholders. The regulator indicates that the exclusion of 10 percent of the plant's cost from the rate base is intended to be permanent. The utility concludes that it will not appeal the disallowance after considering the likely outcome of an appeal.

Utility D should record the indirect disallowance as a loss and should estimate the amount of that loss using the best available information. If the regulator specifies the amount of cost that was imprudent, that amount may be the best estimate of the loss. Otherwise, Utility D would have to estimate the future cash flows that have been disallowed as a result of the order and determine the effective disallowance by computing the present value of those disallowed future cash flows. Since both the disallowed future cash flows and the appropriate discount rate to compute the present value would be estimates, those estimates should be calculated on a consistent basis. Accordingly, if the future cash flows are estimated based on the current weighted-average overall cost of Utility D's capital, that weighted-average overall cost of capital should also be used as the discount rate. The loss has no tax benefit to Utility D.

-   Facts: Groups of electric utility companies have been building and operating utility plants under joint ownership agreements or arrangements which do not create legal entities for which separate financial statements are presented. <sup class="ph sup">FN1</sup> Under these arrangements, a participating utility has an undivided interest in a utility plant and is responsible for its proportionate share of the costs of construction and operation and its entitled to its proportionate share of the energy produced.
    
    -   FN1 Before considering the guidance in this SAB Topic, registrants are reminded that the arrangement should be evaluated in accordance with the provisions of Interpretation 46 \[Topic 810\].
        
-   During the construction period a participating utility finances its own share of a utility plant using its own financial resources and not the combined resources of the group. Allowance for funds used during construction is provided in the same manner and at the same rates as for plants constructed to be used entirely by the participant utility.
    
-   When a joint-owned plant becomes operational, one of the participant utilities acts as operator and bills the other participants for their proportionate share of the direct expenses incurred. Each individual participant incurs other expenses related to transmission, distribution, supervision and control which cannot be related to the energy generated or received from any particular source. Many companies maintain depreciation records on a composite basis for each class of property so that neither the accumulated allowance for depreciation nor the periodic expense can be allocated to specific generating units whether jointly or wholly owned.
    
-   Question: What disclosure should be made on the financial statements or in the notes concerning interests in jointly owned utility plants?
    
-   Interpretive Response: A participating utility should include information concerning the extent of its interests in jointly owned plants in a note to its financial statements. The note should include a table showing separately for each interest in a jointly owned plant the amount of utility plant in service, the accumulated provision for depreciation (if available), the amount of plant under construction, and the proportionate share. The amounts presented for plant in service or plant under construction may be further subdivided to show amounts applicable to plant subcategories such as production, transmission, and distribution. The note should include statements that the dollar amounts represent the participating utility's share in each joint plant and that each participant must provide its own financing. Information concerning two or more generating plants on the same site may be combined if appropriate.
    
-   The note should state that the participating utility's share of direct expenses of the joint plants is included in the corresponding operating expenses on its income statement (e. g., fuel, maintenance of plant, other operating expense). If the share of direct expenses is charged to purchased power then the note should disclose the amount so charged and the proportionate amounts charged to specific operating expenses on the records maintained for the joint plants.

The following is the text of SAB Topic 10.E, Classification of Charges for Abandonment and Disallowances.

-   Facts: A public utility company abandons the construction of a plant and, under the provisions of Statement 90 \[Topic 980\], must charge a portion of the costs of the abandoned plant to expense. <sup class="ph sup">FN3</sup> Also, the utility determines that it is probable that certain costs of a recently completed plant will be disallowed, and charges those costs to expense as required by Statement 90 \[Topic 980\].
    
    -   FN3 Paragraph 3 of Statement 90 \[paragraph [980-360-35-3](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/980/#360-980-35-3)\] requires that costs of abandoned plants in excess of the present value of the future revenues expected to be provided to recover any allowable costs be charged to expense in the period that the abandonment becomes probable. Also, paragraph 7 of Statement 90 \[paragraph [980-360-35-12](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/980/#360-980-35-12)\] requires that disallowed costs for recently completed plants be charged to expense when the disallowance becomes probable and can be reasonably estimated.
        
-   Question: May such charges for abandonments and disallowances be reported as extraordinary items in the statement of income?
    
-   Interpretive Response: No. The staff does not believe that such charges meet the requirements of APB Opinion 30 \[Topic 225\] that an item be both unusual and infrequent to be classified as an extraordinary item. Accordingly, the public utility was advised by the staff that such charges should be reported as a component of income from continuing operations, separately presented, if material. <sup class="ph sup">FN4</sup>
    
    -   FN4 Additionally, the registrant was reminded that paragraph 26 of APB Opinion 30 \[paragraph [220-20-45-1](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/220/20/#220-20-45-1)\] provides that items which are not reported as extraordinary should not be reported on the income statement net of income taxes or in any manner that implies that they are similar to extraordinary items.
        
-   Paragraph 20 of APB Opinion 30 \[paragraph [225-20-45-2](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/225/20/#225-20-45-2)\] indicates that to be unusual, an item must "possess a high degree of abnormality and be of a type clearly unrelated to, or only incidentally related to, the ordinary and typical activities of the entity, taking into account the environment in which the entity operates." Similarly, that paragraph indicates that, to be infrequent, an event should "not reasonably be expected to recur in the foreseeable future."
    
-   Electric utilities operate under a franchise that requires them to furnish adequate supplies of electricity for their service area. That undertaking requires utilities to continually forecast the future demand for electricity, and the costs to be incurred in constructing the plants necessary to meet that demand. Abandonments and disallowances result from the failure of demand to reach projected levels and/or plant construction costs that exceed anticipated amounts. Neither event qualifies as being both unusual and infrequent in the environment in which electric utilities operate.
    
-   Accordingly, the staff believes that charges for abandonments and disallowances under Statement 90 should not be presented as extraordinary items. <sup class="ph sup">FN5</sup>
    
    -   FN5 The staff also notes that paragraphs 3 and 7 of Statement 90 \[paragraphs [980-360-35-3](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/980/#360-980-35-3) and [980-360-35-12](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/360/980/#360-980-35-12)\], in requiring that such costs be "recognized as a loss," do not specify extraordinary item treatment. The staff believes that it generally has been the FASB's practice to affirmatively require extraordinary item treatment when it believes that it is appropriate for charges or credits to income specifically required by a provision of a statement.
