Document Summary

Current assets are important to a company"s short-term liquidity while capital assets are absolutely essential to a company"s long-term future. Tangible having physical substance (e. g. , a machine is tangible). Intangible lacking physical substance (e. g. , a copyright is intangible). Acquisition cost the amount that includes all of the costs normally necessary to acquire an asset and prepare it for its intended use (original cost). Generally includes purchase price, taxes paid at time for purchase, transportation charges, installation costs. Group purchase purchasing several assets as a group and paying a lump-sum amount. Interest is a period cost and should appear on the income statement as interest expense in the period incurred. Exception is when a company constructs an asset over a period of time and borrows money to finance the construction. The amount of interest incurred during the construction period may not be treated as interest expense and instead may be included as part of the acquisition cost of the asset.
