Rate-regulated Activities - AcSOC
Date recorded:
At the AcSOC meeting on June 8-9, 2017, the AcSB Chair noted that the IASB reviewed an analysis that suggests that rights or obligations created by the rate-adjustment mechanism are assets or liabilities. The AcSB plans to issue an updated research paper that demonstrates the decision-usefulness of financial information that reflects the economics of rate-regulated activities in conjunction with the IASB’s next document for comment. A few AcSOC members suggested the AcSB consider publishing its revised research paper independently to encourage interest in the topic. The AcSB Chair committed to discussing the suggestion with the AcSB.
