Roadmap: Environmental Obligations and Asset Retirement Obligations (2023)
This Roadmap provides Deloitte’s insights into and interpretations of the accounting guidance on environmental obligations in ASC 410-30 and asset retirement obligations (AROs) in ASC 410-20. Because the accounting for such obligations will vary depending on the laws and regulations that govern them, this publication gives an overview of some of the applicable federal and state environmental laws and regulations in the United States and describes the application of the accounting guidance within the relevant legal framework. The 2023 edition includes updates on regulatory developments and new content on AROs commonly encountered by companies in the renewables industry.
The Roadmap is available on the Deloitte Accounting Research Tool Web site.
