Long-Term Assets
1. Reported on the balance sheet, it's the value of a company's property, equipment and other capital assets, less depreciation.

2. A stock, bond or other asset that you plan on holding in your portfolio for a lengthy period of time.

Notes:
Be aware that these are usually recorded at the price at which they were purchased and so do not always reflect the current value of the assets.


Long-term assets
Value of property, equipment, and other capital assets minus the depreciation. This is an entry in the bookkeeping records of a company. It is usually established on a "cost" basis, and thus does not necessarily reflect the market value of the assets.
