  • Title: Preparing for asset retirement.
    Author: Luecke RW, Reinstein A.
    Journal: Healthc Financ Manage; 2003 Apr; 57(4):84-90. PubMed ID: 12735191.
    Abstract:
    Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 143 requires organizations to recognize a liability for an asset retirement obligation when it is incurred--even if that occurs far in advance of the asset's planned retirement. For example, organizations must recognize future costs associated with medical equipment disposal that carries hazardous material legal obligations.
