FIXED ASSETS
Presented by : Aaron Helfenberger and Karen WorthyReporting & Fixed Assets
Our goal is to educate you on the processes, procedures, and
everyday activities of the Reporting & Fixed Assets
office.
Agenda• What is a fixed asset and why is it important?
• How is a fixed asset acquired?
• How do you maintain and dispose of fixed assets?
(FORMS)
• Annual Inventory
• Individual Responsibilities
What is a Fixed Asset?A fixed asset is defined as University property such as land, buildings, and equipment, with a total cost equal to or greater than $5,000, and a useful life of two or more years.
EXCEPTION: Software must be over $100,000
Examples of Fixed AssetsBuildings
Infrastructure
Art Collections
Campus Vehicles
Equipment
Expanded DefinitionTotal Costs = purchase price + other costs
incurred to place the asset in its location and condition for useShipping/delivery costsInstallation/set up feesInterest costs, legal fees, etc. incurred during
the construction of an asset (i.e. buildings)
DOES NOT APPLY:Service contractsExtended warranties
Maintenance CostsMaintenance costs are expenses incurred to keep
assets in normal operating condition and to help maintain the original use of the asset.
Maintenance costs do not extend the life of an asset beyond the expected useful life.
Examples: repairs, replacement parts, painting, service agreements, etc.
MAINTENANCE COSTS = FIXED ASSET
Capitalization & Depreciation
A fixed asset becomes ‘capitalized’ when it is recorded on the financial statements as an asset.
A fixed asset is ‘depreciated’ by allocating the cost of the asset over its useful life.
Straight line method (total cost-salvage value/useful life)
NOT depreciated: land, certain land improvements, construction-in-progress, works of art/historical treasures

Fixed Asset Requisition Problems
Problems with descriptions and quantity
Problems with lack of information in Internal Notes
Problems with account codes
Example 1
Poor Requisitions (Example 1)
• Problem With Example 1: Unclear Description (GEM e4)
• Solution:Enter Layman’s Term Description in Internal Notes orattach Internal Document providing information.Example: Electric Vehicle
• Reason:Informs Fixed Assets on what the asset is and assigns an identifiable name for Inventory purposes.

Poor Requisitions (Example 2)
Poor Requisitions (Example 2)
• Problem With Example 2:Assets are being purchased out of one account when multiple accounts should be used• Solution:When purchasing assets, be sure to purchase each asset out of its proper account• Reason:When proper accounts are not used, expense accounts are incorrect and financial statements will be inaccurate.

Poor Requisitions (Example 3)
• Problem With Example 3:No reference to the related items included in the asset. Non-capital items appear to be purchased out of the incorrect account.
• Solution:Reference the items included in the asset.Example: (Items 1-8 all make up one asset - Bioreactor)
• Reason:Not referencing all items included in the asset allows the asset to be capitalized below its true value.

Fixed Asset Account Codes
Account Codes (continued)
Maintenance Contracts/Service Agreements: Contracts between the University and a vendor specifying a level of ongoing support for a product or piece of equipment. Maintenance agreements often cover a one-year or longer time period.
Account Codes (continued)Support Services: Services purchased from
independent contractors or external organizations for professional and consultative personal services. These services are needed for maintenance and/or ongoing operations and cannot be provided by the current staff. Such services are normally procured when there is no maintenance contract or service agreement to fall back on. An example of this type of expense would be payment for support services related to software when there is no maintenance contract or service agreement in place.
Account Codes (continued)Repair & Maintenance Services: A one-
time or short-term agreement between the University and a vendor to remediate a problem with a product or piece of equipment. Often the agreement rate is based upon an hourly labor charge plus parts and supplies. Both parts and labor are recorded in the same account. Note that repairs are corrective and restorative following wear and deterioration; maintenance is preventive and anticipatory.
Account Codes (continued)Software Accounts:
- Software is only capitalized if over $100,000. Any software purchased under $100,000 is coded as non-capital.
Account Codes (continued)Software Accounts
- Software is only purchased out of a software account if it is software that can be installed and operated on multiple assets, including replacement assets, if the original equipment fails.
- If an asset is purchased and software is purchased with the asset that can only operate with the related asset, then the software will be purchased out of the same account as the equipment.

Final Inventory Report (needs signature!)
Missing AssetsA missing asset list is compiled during the Annual
Inventory.
The Fixed Asset department will email departments a list of assets that were missing.
University departments confirm if assets have been found or not.
Inventory Control re-verifies any assets that have since been found.
Final missing assets are forwarded to the Vice Chancellor of Business Affairs, Department Heads, and Internal Audit. They are also included on the State Bureau of Investigation Report.
Department Head Responsibilities
Take adequate precautions to ensure that arson, damage, theft, embezzlement, or misuse of any asset is prevented.
Comply with University, State, and Federal policies and guidelines regarding inventory verification, inventory disposal, and reporting lost or stolen inventory.
Upon a change in management, conduct an internal review and account for all assets (Recommended by FIT as “Best Practice”).
Property Liaison Responsibilities
Assist with tagging of assets and Annual Inventory
Locate department assets before your scheduled inventory verification
Notify Fixed Assets department of changes in the status of assets (i.e. stolen, lost, location change, missing/defaced tag, transfers, surplus, traded in)
(Use Fixed Asset Equipment Disposition Form for this)
AccountabilityFixed Assets have become more scrutinized in
