At cost
Sir i am asking at which price the purchase (inventory) a/c is to be credited ?
Replacement cost pluss all expenses incurred to put the asset to use.

At invoice value. There is no principle for that. 

Who told?
pls understand the accounting standard for fixed assets and then comment.

Fixed asset should be recorded at price at which stock was recorded. Simple. 

@ sabyasachi is correct and im sorry they can be measured at fairvalue or at carrying amount of goods given.. amd this becomes invoice value. I dont know this paet of the principle.
