Document Summary

The cost of an asset: includes all costs required to install and ready for use. Expenditures are also a component of the asset"s cost. Enterprises often have policies to determine whether expenditures, are included in assets" costs, to ensure there is consistency in calculating cost. Deciding what to include in an asset"s cost can make quite a difference to the enterprise"s financial statements. All property, plant and equipment assets except land are depreciated under gaap. Depletion: used when wasting assets, such as timber sales or order bodies, are involved. Amortisation: used when various intangible assets and leases are involved. If the whole asset cost was deducted from profit in the period in which it was acquired, that would make that period"s profit low and subsequent periods" profit high. It would also mean that an asset that has further benefits is not recognised.
