necessary for its intended use.
In general, costs include:
1. Purchase price, including import duties and non-refundable
purchase taxes, less trade discounts and rebates.
2. Costs attributable to bringing the asset to the location and
condition necessary for it to be used in a manner intended
by the company.

a company weights the construction expenditures by the

10-30 LozInterest Costs During Construction
Special Issues Related to Interest Capitalization
1, Expenditures for Land
@ Ifland is purchased as a site for a structure, interest
costs capitalized during the period of construction are
part of the cost of the plant, not the land.
Conversely, if the company develops land for lot sales,
it includes any capitalized interest cost as part of the
acquisition cost of the developed land.
2. Interest Revenue
@ Ingeneral, companies should not offset interest revenue
against interest cost unless earned on specific borrowings.

Government Grants
Government Grants are assistance received from a
government in the form of transfers of resources to a company
in return for past or future compliance with certain conditions
relating to the operating activities of the company.
IFRS requires grants to be recognized in income (income
approach) on a systematic basis that matches them with the
related costs that they are intended to compensate.
Lo310-46
Government Grants
Example 1: Grant for Lab Equipment. Spectrum AG received a
€500,000 subsidy from the government to purchase lab equipment on
January 2, 2019. The lab equipment cost is €2,000,000, has a useful
life of five years, and is depreciated on the straight-line basis.
IFRS allows AG to record this grant in one of two ways:
1. Credit Deferred Grant Revenue for the subsidy and amortize
the deferred grant revenue over the five-year period.
2. Credit the lab equipment for the subsidy and depreciate this
amount over the five-year period.
Lo3Government Grants
10-47
Example 1: Grant for Lab Equipment. If Spectrum chooses to
record deferred revenue of €500,000, it amortizes this amount over
the five-year period to income (€100,000 per year). The effects on the

Government Grants
Example 2: Grant for Past Losses. Flyaway Airlines has incurred
substantial operating losses over the last five years. The City of
Plentiville does not want to lose airline service and therefore agrees
to provide a cash grant of $1,000,000 to the airline to pay off its
creditors so that it may continue service. Because the grant is given
to pay amounts owed to creditors for past losses, Flyaway Airlines
should record the income in the period it is received.
Cash 1,000,000
Grant Revenue 1,000,000
If the conditions indicate that Flyaway must satisfy some future
obligations, then it is appropriate to credit Deferred Grant Revenue
and amortize it over the appropriate periods in the future.
Lo310-50
Government Grants
Example 3: Grant for Borrowing Costs. Flyaway The City of
Puerto Aloa is encouraging the high-tech firm TechSmart to move its
plant to Puerto Aloa. The city has agreed to provide an interest-free
loan of $10,000,000, with the loan payable at the end of 10 years,
provided that TechSmart will employ at least 50 percent of its work
force from the community of Puerto Aloa over the next 10 years.
TechSmart’s incremental borrowing rate is 9 percent. The present
value of the future loan payable ($10,000,000) is $6,499,300
($10,000,000 x .64993i=9%, n=5). The entry to record the borrowing
is as follows.
Cash 6,499,300
Notes Payable 6,499,300
Lo310-51
Government Grants
In addition, using the deferred revenue approach, the company
records the grant as follows ($10,000,000 - $6,499,300).
Cash 3,500,700
Deferred Grant Revenue 3,500,700
TechSmart then uses the effective-interest rate to determine interest
expense of $584,937 (9% x $6,499,300) in the first year. The
company also decreases Deferred Grant Revenue and increases
Grant Revenue for $584,[Link] a result, the net expense related to
the borrowing is zero in each year.

Disposition of PP&E
Involuntary Conversion
Sometimes an asset's service is terminated through some type of
involuntary conversion such as fire, flood, theft, or
condemnation.
Companies report the difference between the amount recovered
(e.g., from a condemnation award or insurance recovery), if any,
and the asset's book value as a gain or loss.
They treat these gains or losses like any other type of disposition.
