Fixed assets are tangible property that a business uses in the process of producing income. To qualify as a fixed asset, the item cannot be consumed or sold in less than a year. Fixed assets are listed on a companyâs balance sheet and are subject to depreciation.
An asset not readily convertible to cash that is used in the normal course of business. Examples of fixed assets include machinery, buildings, and fixtures. A firm whose total assets are made up primarily of fixed assets is in a less liquid financial position, thus entailing greater risk of a big tumble in profits if its revenues fall.
