CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

Why our clients love AssetAccountant

From Big 4 firms to solo accountants, public company CFOs to corporate finance teams;
— here’s what they say about our fixed asset depreciation and lease accounting software:

★★★★★
"

"Up until 2021 we had been using Excel spreadsheets to calculate and manage fixed asset tax depreciation for the group's registers, which was not sustainable. To address this and to implement automation of the process, we researched solutions offered in the market, including by the large accounting firms and specialist software providers. After thoroughly vetting AssetAccountant as a vendor, testing the software and its calculations, and reviewing the company's data security, we committed to implement the software for all tax fixed asset registers for the Whitehaven Coal group. Since implementation we have been very satisfied with the decision. The software is intuitive, robust, easy to use, and accurate. AssetAccountant's commitment to ongoing development of the product's features has also been impressive."

"After being introduced to AssetAccountant in 2020 by PriceWaterhouseCoopers, I carefully reviewed the software's functionality to suit our complex fixed asset depreciation and lease accounting requirements. For example Buildsafe acquires, disposes and writes off thousands of assets including partial transactions. We also need flexible reporting and detailed journals. I have found the software to be enterprise standard, robust and precise. The software is a very elegant blend of beauty and smarts. The ongoing support, product development and assistance has been responsive and reliable. An amazing team and product. Thank you."

"Big Boy Jocks On.... Ever wanted the big company fixed asset system without all the clunkiness and overthinking on the part of the software developers (I'm looking at you Thomson Reuters...)? Well then you need AssetAccountant. It provides just the right mix of complex depreciation calculations and beautiful user interface. It's a system designed by accountants and executed perfectly by developers. The integration is seamless with Xero (you can sign into AA with Xero credentials which is awesome if you are already running Xero on your browser) and journaling synchs are very flexible between the two applications. Then there is the price. I challenge you to find a more robust fixed asset system at these price points. Well done AssetAccountant. You get me. I now have my big boy jocks back on for fixed asset management....and they fit!"

"We initially came across AssetAccountant when researching potential replacements for the Xero asset register. AssetAccountant sparked our interest due to its ability to easily and transparently forecast depreciation, transfer assets between sites, revalue assets and asset part disposals. The AA team have been extremely helpful which has provided us with confidence in the product, we look forward to exploring additional features to find more efficiencies in our processes."

FAQs

What is fixed asset depreciation in New Zealand?
plus icon minus icon

Fixed asset depreciation in New Zealand refers to the gradual reduction in the value of a company's tangible assets, such as equipment, vehicles, or buildings, over time due to wear and tear. This process allows corporations to account for the declining value of assets in their financial statements, following New Zealand accounting standards.

How are lease calculation rules applied in New Zealand?
plus icon minus icon

Lease calculation rules in New Zealand are governed by accounting standards like NZ IFRS 16. These rules determine how corporations should record lease obligations on their balance sheets. Under these standards, most leases must be recorded as both assets and liabilities, reflecting the company’s right to use the asset and its obligation to make payments.

Which accounting standards govern fixed asset depreciation in New Zealand?
plus icon minus icon

Fixed asset depreciation in New Zealand is primarily regulated by NZ IAS 16, which outlines how to account for the depreciation of property, plant, and equipment. This standard specifies methods for calculating depreciation, ensuring that assets are depreciated systematically over their useful life.

What are the most common methods for calculating fixed asset depreciation in New Zealand?
plus icon minus icon

Corporations in New Zealand typically use either the straight-line method or the diminishing value method. The straight-line method depreciates assets evenly over their useful life, while the diminishing value method applies higher depreciation in the early years, reflecting the faster loss in asset value during that period.

Are there specific lease accounting requirements for corporations in New Zealand?
plus icon minus icon

Yes, corporations in New Zealand must comply with NZ IFRS 16, which requires leases to be recorded as both assets and liabilities. This accounting standard ensures that lease obligations are transparent, helping companies manage their lease arrangements and reflect them accurately in financial statements.
