Fixed Asset
An asset with a long-term useful life that a company uses to make its products or provide its services. Strictly speaking, a fixed asset is any asset that the company does not expect to sell for at least a year, but the term often refers to assets a company expects to have indefinitely. Common examples of fixed assets are real estate and factories, which a company holds for long periods of time.

fixed assets

Items on a company's balance sheet—the tangible property used in the business and not for resale; would include buildings, furniture, fixtures, equipment, and land.
