Fixed asset
Fixed assets, also known as a non-current asset or as property, plant, and equipment, is a term used in accounting for assets and property which cannot easily be converted into cash. This can be compared with current assets such as cash or bank accounts, which are described as liquid assets. In most cases, only tangible assets are referred to as fixed. International Accounting Standard 16, defines Fixed Assets as assets whose future economic benefit is probable to flow into the entity, whose cost can be measured reliably. Moreover, a fixed/non-current asset can also be defined as an asset not directly sold to a firm's consumers/end-users.

These are items of value which the organization has bought and will use for an extended period of time; fixed assets normally include items such as land and buildings, motor vehicles, furniture, office equipment, computers, fixtures and fittings, and plant and machinery. These often receive favorable tax treatment over short-term assets.
