Any item of economic value owned by an individual or
corporation, especially that which could be converted to
cash. Examples are cash, securities, accounts receivable,
inventory, office equipment, real estate, a car, and other
property.
A balance sheet item representing what a firm owns.
On a balance sheet, assets are equal to the sum of
liabilities, common stock, preferred stock, and retained
earnings. From an accounting perspective, assets are
divided into the following categories: current assets (cash
and other liquid items), long-term assets (real estate,
plant, equipment), prepaid and deferred assets
(expenditures for future costs such as insurance, rent,
interest), and intangible assets (trademarks, patents,
copyrights, goodwill).
