Why Do I Need a Fixed Asset Register?
South African Company Law requires that businesses keep a register of their fixed assets as part of their accounting records.
Managing your fixed assets includes tracking each asset’s value, both from a tax and an accounting point of view, depreciating assets correctly using an appropriate depreciation rate and method, updating the replacement values of your fixed assets for insurance purposes and accurately recording any changes, such as purchases or sales etc.
It is vital that your Fixed Assets Register is maintained to keep your data accurate, by including additional information such as date and cost of purchase or disposal, accumulated depreciation, net book value, profit or loss on sale etc.
