INTRODUCTION:
Fixed Assets are the assets held with the intention of being used on continuous basis for
the purpose of producing or providing goods or services and are not held for resale in the normal
course of business.
E.g.: Land and Buildings, Plant and Machinery, Motor Vehicles, Furniture and Fixtures.
Valuation of fixed assets is important to have fair measure of profit or loss and financial
position of the concern. Fixed assets are meant for use for many years. The value of these assets
decreases with their use or with time or many other reasons. A portion of fixed assets are
reduced by usage are converted into cash through charging depreciation. For correct
measurement of income, proper measurement of depreciation is essential, as depreciation
constitutes a Part of total cost of production.
Financial transactions are recorded in the books, keeping in view the going concern aspect
of the business unit. In going concern aspect it is assumed that the business unit has reasonable
expectation of continuing the business for a profit for an indefinite period of time. This
assumption provides much of the justification for recording fixed assets at original cost and
depreciating them in a systematic manner without reference to their current realizable value
It is useless to record the fixed assets in the balance sheet at their estimated realizable
values if there is no immediate expectation of selling them. So, they are shown at their book
value (i.e., Cost –Depreciation) and not at current realizable value. The market value of the fixed
assets may change with the passage of time, but for accounting purpose it continues to be shown
in the books in historical cost.
The cost concept of accounting states that depreciation calculated on the basis of historical
cost of old assets is usually lower than the amount calculated at current value/ replacement
value. These results in more profits, which if distributed in full will lead to reduction in capital.
ACCOUNTING STANDARD FOR FIXED ASSETS (AS-10):
AS-10 on Accounting for Fixed Assets has been made mandatory with effect from
01.04.1991. According to the AS-10, “Fixed Asset is an asset held with the intention of being
used on continuous basis for the purpose of producing or providing goods or services and is not
held for resale in the normal course of action”. Gross book value of fixed asset is its historical
cost or other amount substituted for historical costs in the books of accounts or financial
statements. When the amount of depreciation is deducted from gross book value then it is Net
Book Value.
Cost of Fixed Assets should consist of purchase price including import duties etc.,
and attributable cost of bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use. Financing
costs relating to borrowed funds attributable to construction or acquisition of fixed assets for the
period up to the acquisition or completion. Expenditure incurred in start-up and commissioning
of the project including test runs.
Revaluation of assets: Fixed assets may be restated in the value with the help of appraisal under
taken by the competent value’s .Such valuation of assets is called revaluation.
FIXED ASSETS MANAGEMENT CYCLE

The fixed assets management cycle is the cycle of activities from the acquisition of the asset to the
final disposition of the assets at the end of their useful life. The cycle has 7 steps:
Acquisition: The cycle begins with the acquisition, purchase, gift or otherwise, of an asset and the
determination that the asset is to be capitalized. To be capitalized the asset has to meet the agency’s
capitalization limit and have a useful life of one year or more.
Receiving: The asset is formally received and accepted by the agency. Receipt may be
verified by entry into an automated purchasing system or by hard copy document. In the case of
donated fixed assets, receipt can be verified by a letter to the donor.
Payment: Payment is made for the asset according to the terms of the purchase order or
recognition of acceptance of a gift to the donor. The payment includes the acquisition cost, freight
and all other costs to put the asset. Acquisition cost of donated fixed assets is determined by its fair
market value.
Identification: The asset is identified as an asset, tagged or otherwise identified and entered
into the fixed assets management inventory system. Assets are identified with a permanently attached
identification tag, etching or by painting on the identification number.
Inventory: The longest step in the cycle. The asset is used over its useful life. Assets are
inventoried and accounted for during this step until they are no longer needed. The agency’s policies
and procedures determine the inventory interval.
Excess: the asset is declared as excess to the user’s needs. The asset may be transferred to another
user where it will continue to be used, accounted for and inventoried. Assets may be declared as
excess more than once until the asset is no longer needed.
Surplus: The last step in the fixed assets management cycle. The asset is declared to be surplus
property and to have no further value to the agency. The asset is disposed of by sale
or discarding depending on the residual value. Sale can be by auction, sealed bid, spot sale,
or through a sales store.
FIXED ASSETS MANAGEMENT CYCLE

NEED OF THE STUDY:
As fixed assets play an important role in company’s objectives. These fixed are
not convertible or not liquidable over a period of time. The owner’s funds and long term
liabilities are invested in fixed assets. Since, fixed assets play dominant role in the business and
the firm has utilization of fixed assets. So, ratio contributes in analyzing and evaluating the
performance of the business.
If firms fixed assets are idle and not utilized properly it affects the long-term
sustainability of the firm, which may affect liquidity and solvency and profitability positions of
the company. The idle of fixed assets leads to a tremendous loss in financial cost and intangible
cost associate of it. So, this will lead to evaluation of fixed assets performance. Comparing with
similar company and comparison with industry standards.
Fixed assets are the assets which cannot be liquidated into cash within one year.
The huge amounts of funds of the company are invested in these assets. Every year company
invests an additional fund in these assets directly or indirectly. The survival and other objectives
of the company depend on operating performance of management i.e. effective utilization of
these assets.
Firm has evaluated the performance, of fixed assets with proportion of capital
employed on net assets turnover and other parameters which are helpful for evaluating the
performance of fixed assets.
SCOPE OF THE STUDY:

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY:
The data used for the analysis and interpretation is from annual reports of the
company i.e., secondary forms of data. Ratio analysis is used for calculation purpose.
The project is presented using tables, graphs and with their interpretations. No survey
is undertaken or observation study is conducted by evaluating fixed assets performance of the
company.
SOURCES OF DATA:
The data needed for this project is collected from the following sources:
1. The data is adopted purely from secondary sources.
2. The theoretical contents are gathered purely from eminent text books and references.
3. The financial data and information is gathered from annual reports of the company.
Primary Data
Primary data means original data that has been collected specially for the purpose in
mind. It means someone collected the data from the original source first hand. Data
collected this way is called primary data.
The people who gather primary data may be an authorized organization, investigator,
enumerator or they may be just someone with a clipboard. Those who gather primary data
may have knowledge of the study and may be motivated to make the study a success. These
people are acting as a witness so primary data is only considered as reliable as the people
who gathered it.
Research where one gathers this kind of data is referred to as field research.
For example: your own questionnaire
Secondary Data
Secondary data is data that has been collected for another purpose. When we use Statistical
Method with Primary Data from another purpose for our purpose we refer to it as Secondary
Data. It means that one purpose's Primary Data is another purpose's Secondary Data.
Secondary data is data that is being reused. Usually in a different context.
Research where one gathers this kind of data is referred to as desk research.
For example: data from a book
