Fixed asset

Fixed assets, also known as tangible assets or property, plant, and equipment (PP&E), is a term used in accounting for assets and property that 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.
IAS 16 (International Accounting Standard) defines Fixed Assets as assets whose future economic benefit is probable to flow into the entity, whose cost can be measured reliably. [Types] ("Freehold Assets") These are the assets wich are purchased with legal right of ownership and used. ("Leasehold Assets") These are asset used by owner without legal right for a particular period of time.
