Only when the grant is received, we have to account for it. Accruals based Recognition is not possible here because there is no commercial transaction here.

It is inappropriate to recognise government grants in the profit and loss statement, since they are not earned but represent an incentive provided by government without related costs. This is your criteria under capital approach. There are two methods, reduce the gross asset value and calculate deferred taxes, depreciation etc. 

Now I found out, that if your firm will fulfill all necessary obligations to obtain a grant, it can be recognised today. Sorry for being hasty.

Choose the two methods applicable, and I know it as direct and indirect methods,
