What is Fixed Assets Management?
Fixed assets are purchased for long-term use and are not likely to be converted quickly into cash, such as land, buildings, and equipment.
The management of fixed assets such as buildings, fixtures and machinery, which can not be converted to a fair cash value in a timely manner is a vital accounting process. Fixed assets are often managed through the use of asset tags, which are tracked through serial numbers or bar codes, for easier organization, and are filed for the purpose of accounting, maintenance and theft deterrence.
Here are some of the most common tracked fixed assets:
- Plant and equipment
- Buildings
- Fixtures and fittings
- Long term investment
- Machinery
- Vehicles and heavy equipments
