Accounting - Asset register

Asset register

An asset register includes details about the non-current assets owned by a
business. The main reason for keeping an asset register is to enable the
easy access to and retrieval of details relating to the asset. This is
possible because they are kept as separate records.

The types of details that are included in a record are:

* the make and supplier of the asset

* the purchase price and date

* the model number

* the estimated life of the asset

* the depreciation rate and method used

* the insurance value, company and policy

* the estimated disposal value
