"Best Practices for Fixed Asset Managers: Developing Solid Techniques for Proper Management of Fixed Assets"

The goal of this paper is to help you learn about best practices for fixed asset management and suggest tips for implementing them in your organization.

In the world of accounting, the savings potential of improved fixed asset management is often overlooked. It's difficult to find the time and tools to devote the attention to fixed assets that they deserve. Yet assets like land, buildings, transportation, and manufacturing equipment represent the largest investments most companies make. Sound fixed asset management can yield substantial tax savings in depreciation deductions. Conversely, sub-optimal fixed asset practices can threaten the accuracy of financial reports and negatively impact your bottom line. Establishing the highest standards of depreciation accuracy and best practices in fixed asset management will pay off in savings and efficiency whether you are a Corporate Accountant, CFO, Government Asset Manager, CPA, or a Nonprofit Executive.

These best practices will help you to seek out potential savings in your fixed asset base and show you how to save time in the process. The suggestions will guide you in how to:

• Establish an accurate baseline of fixed assets
• Select the right tool for the job
• Rely on accurate depreciation calculations
• Stay up-to-date with legislative changes
• Produce targeted financial reports
• Get trained on the system you employ
• Add modules or services when appropriate
