tangible assets to expense in a systematic and rational

IFRS allows revaluation of plant assets to fair value
If revaluation is used, it must be applied to all assets in
a class of assets.
Assets that are experiencing rapid price changes must
be revalued on an annual basis, otherwise less
frequent revaluation is acceptable.

Depletion is to natural resources as depreciation is to plant
assets.
Companies generally use units-of-activity method.
Depletion generally is a function of the units extracted.
IFRS defines extractive industries as those businesses
involved in finding and removing natural resources located in
or near the earth’s crust.
Cost - price needed to acquire the resource and prepare it for
its intended use.
