When calculating Historical Cost for non current assets:

In

-purchase price
-modifications
- freight in
-installation

Out

-on road costs of insurance, registration
-GST
- annual service contract


Anyone care to add on to the list?

I wasn't sure about registration-i thought it would be part of the costs incurred in 'getting the asset in a condition and location ready for use'. but alas, it was one of the answers in a practice question.


also insurance on delivery is in.

Are you sure? Isn't prepaid insurance a current asset, that will only be able to provide a benefit for 12 months, and not the life of the asset?

he means insurace ON delivery,it would be added to the cost of the non-current asset as its a one off cost.
