Your business owns or controls goods or items of lasting nature. These are called assets.
Fixed assets
From an accounting point of view, an asset is a resource of economic value that an individual or company controls and can expect to make a profit or benefit from in the future. An asset could be a business computer, car, a patent, or raw materials.
When you start your business, you typically invest in assets or items that have a long-lasting nature. Machinery, office furniture, computers, patents, or trade marks are examples of what's generally referred to as 'fixed assets'.
