@ Gaurav sry yesterday I did not have so much time to read the complete AS and I did that today
The nature of bridge is separately identifiable and hence, Any addition or extension, which has a separate identity and is capable of being used after the existing asset is disposed of, is accounted for separately. This means the bridge will work even after disposing main components of PPE, so it needs to be treated as a separate class of asset and the costs cannot be included in the gross block value.
AS is somehow unclear and complete treatment is given. Using this principle, you reco*ise bridge as a fixed asset and add costs to fixed assets in relation to
(1)site preparation;
(ii) initial delivery and handling costs;
(iii) installation cost, such as special foundations for plant; and
(iv) professional fees, for example fees of architects and engineers.
(5) sometimes admin and general overheads are included based on the standards scope
your incremental borrowing costs will be dealt by that relevant standard. Hope this clarifies.
