Asset Valuation and Access

Author

Abstract

The analysis presented in this paper broadly supports the use of historic or original cost asset valuation for access purposes. The arguments in favour of historic cost are impressive. It is administratively simple and transparent. It involves less subjective assessment and guess-work and usually will provide adequate incentives for investment and equivalent operational incentives compared with alternative valuation procedures.
