Exposure Draft (ED) 87, Stripping Costs in the Production Phase of a Surface Mine
(Amendments to IPSAS 12)
The International Public Sector Accounting Standards Board (IPSASB) ED 87 proposes adding an authoritative appendix to IPSAS 12, Inventories. The proposed guidance clarifies when to capitalise or expense costs incurred to remove waste material in surface mining operations. ED 87 is aligned with the guidance in IFRIC 20, Stripping costs in the Production Phase of a Surface Mine, with limited changes for the public sector context.
