    I have two questions:

    1. If a grant is received for a depreciable asset are we allowed to use the net method where we credit the full amount of grant/deferred grant to asset account and then depreciate the balance carrying amount over the life of the asset?

    2. if a grant is returned, where do we show it on statement of cash flows, under which activity?

    Hi,

    1. IAS 20 allows both approaches, but netting-off is prohibited by company law in many jurisdictions.

    2. It would be shown in the same place as where the receipt was recorded.

    Thanks
