Capitalization 1. In accounting, it is where costs to acquire an asset are included in the price of the asset. 2. The sum of a corporation's stock, long-term debt and retained earnings. Also known as "invested capital". 3. A company's outstanding shares multiplied by its share price, better known as "market capitalization". Notes: 1. For example, if a machine has a price of $1 million this value would be recorded in the assets, if there was also a $20,000 charge for shipping the machine then this cost would be capitalized and included in assets.2.
