    ASC 610-30 governs the accounting when a nonmonetary asset (property, equipment, inventory) is involuntarily converted into monetary assets — e.g., insurance proceeds from destruction or theft, or condemnation awards in eminent domain. Because the conversion is a monetary transaction rather than a nonmonetary exchange, any difference between the asset's cost (or carrying amount) and the monetary assets received is a realized gain or loss that must be recognized, even if the proceeds are reinvested or the entity is obligated to reinvest them in replacement assets (610-30-25-2; 610-30-25-3).
