Fixed Asset and Capitalisation Policy with Asset Disposal Form
About this document
Without a clear policy, businesses either expense items that should be treated as assets or keep assets on the books long after they have been sold or scrapped. This policy sets a capitalisation threshold, depreciation rates and the records needed for the fixed asset register, and makes sure disposals are approved and recorded – including the capital allowances and VAT consequences.
The document is laid out in the sections below. Each one comes with a plain-English guidance note explaining what it does and what to change.
