AA-18-Antivirus Software Assets or Expense

A/c entries 583 views 7 replies

All Respected Members,

Please educate me that if we purchase antivirus software for 1 year validity, how will it be considered ? It will consider expense or assets? If it will be considered assets, can we record as office equipment?

Thanks in advance for your precious time and efforts to reply this query.

It will be recorded as an expense.
Dear Aakrash,

Thanks for your reply.

Can you please share logic behind it to record as expense?

I found on internet that some persons recommend to record it as assets.

Kind response awaited from Aakrash Sir. 

Because it is short lived. Its an operating expense.
