    G/L fixed asset accounts

    I'm curious as to how other companies handle the costs associated with small item fixed assets.  Do they go directly to an asset account in the G/L or are they put in a CIP account and moved over to a fixed asset account once all costs are accumulated with an asset?  I'd appreciate hearing from folks about what their companies are doing.  Thanks!

    What I do is accumulate the costs in a CIP account then move over to fixed asset account once the construction of the asset is substantially complete and placed into service. Hope that helps...

     This does help.  Do you also run computers, printers, tools, etc. through a cip account prior to placing them in service?
