1993 SNA Update Information - AEG recommendations for issue:
Améliorations de terrains

Issue description
Issue description in [English] | [French] | [Russian] | [Spanish]
Le SCN de 1993 prévoit la comptabilisation des améliorations de terrains à titre de formation de capital fixe, alors que dans le compte de patrimoine ces mêmes améliorations sont incluses aux terrains – soit en tant qu’actif no produits. Faut il partager les terrains de manière à en comptabiliser une partie en tant qu’actif fixe et une autre comme actif non produit? Le cas échéant, comment devrait-on effectuer la séparation? Une possibilité consisterait à faire la distinction entre un actif non produit les terrains naturels ou quasi naturels et la part restante à l’actif fixe. Une autre possibilité serait d’isoler les terrains des améliorations qui y sont faites, d’inscrire les terrains en tant qu’actifs non produits et les améliorations comme actifs fixes.

Number of AEG recommendations for selected issue:2
  Corresponding meetingDate postedRecommendation
 July 20059/12/2005The proposals in question 1 of the e-discussion were overwhelmingly supported.
 December 20041/11/2005The AEG agreed unanimously that:
i. GFCF of land improvements should be treated like other GFCF and result in a produced asset appearing separately in the balance sheet;
ii. The non-produced component of land should be valued at its present unimproved value;
iii. Where the value of land cannot be partitioned into an improved and unimproved part, adopt recommendations for land and associated structures as in Para 13.57 for balance sheets and Para 7.131 for rent and rentals;
iv. Costs of ownership transfer on land should be recorded as fixed assets and included with land improvements.
The boundary between land improvements and structures should be re-examined with a view to moving some items such as major dykes, seawalls, etc. to structures.
The terms “Land Improvements” and “Unimproved Land” are to be reconsidered by the Canberra Group II.
