A FAR (Fixed Assets Register) must
be kept in order to be in compliance with legislation
governing
corporations,
companies, etc. It allows a
company to keep track of details of each fixed asset, ensuring
control and preventing misappropriation of assets. It also
keeps track of the correct value of assets, which allows for
computation of depreciation and for tax and insurance
purposes. The FAR generates accurate, complete, and customized
reports that suits the needs of management.
A FAR also allows a company to
keep track of fixed assets that are not under simple, direct
control of the company. This means owned and leased assets,
assets under construction, and imported assets.
The FAR can also be used to aid
in capital budgeting and to keep track of amount provided for
Asset Retirement Obligation (ARO) in respect of each asset as
required by US GAAP (FAS – 143).
