[info-tech] Intangible Asset Policy

2010-05-27 Thread Karl Hehr
I was just asked by my business secretary, about an INtangible Assest policy. Apparently there is a policy at the state level relating to asset tagging software, and all non-tangible tech (see also: Webpage). I was wondering if any of you have heard about this, or is this something we

Karl- This is news to me. Did you have a webpage that talks about it, or where are you getting the information? We don't have anything like that, as far as I know. Sorry. Jeremy -Original Message- From: info-tech-ow...@aea8.k12.ia.us

I think some of those tangible ass-sets could be eliminated and bail the state out with the cost savings. -Original Message- From: info-tech-ow...@aea8.k12.ia.us [mailto:info-tech-ow...@aea8.k12.ia.us] On Behalf Of Karl Hehr Sent: Thursday, May 27, 2010 2:03 PM To: Info-Tech Subject:

Here is what our business manager sent me yesterday about this: I forgot to tell you about the next fun thing we (Business Managers) get to report for this year! This one is called GASB 51 and it has to do with intangible assets. Basically what I need to know is if we have any software

So the big question is, is the threshold the TOTAL or is it PER title. Another thing to remember, is according to what I read in GASB 51 the Website, if developed in house is considered an internally developed software. I also know the board needs to have a policy in place by July 1. :)

From what Jackie stated, and you said again Karl, that to me sounds like if we have built software to do something, that is what they are referring to. Our Business Manager is in Europe right now, and I don't think really cares so much. I think he is also hoping for another volcano eruption, so

OK, so the policy referenced is GASB 51 (appears to be a Federal thing, Google it) My business secretary was informed through her Business Secretary association IASBO. SO if you want to read about it, I would say talk with your business secretary. What I hope comes from this, is that we
