The Builtwell Construction Company is building a hospital for a third party. As such it borrows substantial funds from a foreign bank and repays the required interest costs as scheduled. Builtwell also incurs some foreign currency truncation gains and losses on these transactions. Builtwell properly amortizes the interest costs over the life of the construction project, but would now also like to amortize the associated foreign currency transaction gains and losses as well. Can Builtwell amortize such costs?
