The intangible asset
An intangible or intangible asset is an asset that is not physical in nature, that is, it cannot be touched because it does not have a material existence. The intangible asset is a non-monetary asset that is held in a durable manner to carry on the business of the enterprise. Goodwill, websites and software, goodwill, databases, know-how, trademark recognition and intellectual property, such as patents, trademarks and copyrights, are all intangible assets.
An asset shall be considered intangible if it meets the following conditions:
- Be clearly identifiable, i.e. separable from a legal person;
- Owned and controlled by the enterprise;
- Reliably evaluated according to specific evaluation methods;
- Delivering short- and long-term economic benefits to the business.
Intangible assets fall into six distinct classes:
- The establishment costs
- Research and development costs
- Similar concessions and rights, patents, licences, trademarks, processes, software, rights and similar values
- The lease rights
- Trade funds
- Other intangible assets such as goodwill
