Hi Mike!
Could you explain what’s the general logic of capitalizing borrowing costs as per IAS 23?
Thanks.

Why not???!!!
They are directly attributable to the cost of financing the construction of a qualifying asset and, because they are so directly attributable, it would be conceptually unacceptable NOT to capitalise those borrowing costs
Is that enough for you?
