Asset Retirement Obligation Disclosure [Abstract] |
Asset Retirement Obligations | 11. Asset Retirement Obligations The Company recognizes asset retirement obligations in the period in which they are incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The associated asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset. The Company continues to depreciate, on a straight-line basis, the amount added to property, plant and equipment and recognizes accretion expense in connection with the discounted liability over the various remaining lives which range from approximately 1 to 24 years. A reconciliation of the Company’s asset retirement liability for the twenty-six weeks ended February 29, 2020 was as follows (in thousands):
