Summary/Abstract: Due to a deepening scarcity of natural resources and ever stricter regulations related to their acquisition, the importance of natural resources in the world economy is growing considerably. In contrast to financial and tangible assets, natural resources are not very well described and represented in the accounting systems of firms, despite the fact that their use determines significantly the development of individual companies and the economy. The authors present a way to take account in production costs of those environmental costs which affect the sustainable development of a company as measured by economic value added. They also propose to complement the traditional approach of environmental costs with accommodating the cost of natural resources.
