1. 818-30Environmental Credit Obligations818 Environmental Credits and Environmental Credit Obligations

   ASC 818-30 governs when and how an entity recognizes, measures, presents, and discloses an environmental credit obligation — a liability to remit environmental credits (e.g., emissions allowances, renewable energy certificates) under a regulatory compliance program. A liability is recognized when events on or before the reporting date would require remitting credits assuming the reporting date were the end of the compliance period (818-30-25-1). The liability is split into a funded portion, measured at the carrying amount of compliance environmental credits on hand under Subtopic 818-20 costing methods (818-30-30-2), and an unfunded portion, measured at fair value of the needed credits unless the entity intends to settle in cash or with credits from an unconditional commitment or right (818-30-30-3).
