Under PAS 20, these are government grants whose primary condition is that an entity qualifying for them should purchase, construct or otherwise acquire long-term assets. Subsidiary conditions may also be attached restricting the type or location of the assets or the periods during which they are to be acquired or held.

• Government assistance

• Government grants

• Grants related to assets

• Grants related to income

In the case of grants related to income, which of these accounting treatments is prescribed by PAS 20?

Which of the following may qualify as a qualifying asset?

• 100-storey building purchased from a contractor

• Titanic ship that took 100 years to construct, purchased from a retail store

The borrowing costs from general borrowings that are eligible for capitalization may be computed as

• Interest expense minus investment income

• Investment income minus interest expense

• Capitalization rate multiplied by average carrying amount of qualifying asset

• Total borrowings minus average expenditures multiplied by capitalization rate

Interest cost that is capitalized should

• be written off over the remaining term of the debt.

• be accumulated in a separate deferred charge account and written off equally over a 40-year period.

• not be written off until the related asset is fully depreciated or disposed of.
