Accountants are traditionally reluctant2 to accept value as the basis of asset measurement in the going concern. Although monetary assets such as cash or accounts receivable are usually measured by their value, most other assets are measured at cost. The reason is that the accountant finds it difficult to verify3 the forecasts upon which a generalized value measurement system would have to be based. As a result, the balance sheet does not pretend to show how much the company’s assets are worth; it shows how much the company has invested in them.
The historical cost of an asset is the sum of all the expenditures the company made to acquire4 it. This amount is not always easily measurable. If, for example, a company has built a special-purpose machine in one of its own factories for use in manufacturing other products, and the project required logistical support from all parts of the factory organization, from purchasing to quality control, then a good deal of judgment must be reflected in any estimate of how much of the costs of these logistical activities should be “capitalized” (i.e., placed on the balance sheet) as part of the cost of the machine.
