Aktyvai

Aktyvai is a Lithuanian word that translates to "assets" in English. In a financial context, aktvyai refers to items of economic value that a company or individual owns. These can be tangible, such as buildings, machinery, or inventory, or intangible, like patents, trademarks, or goodwill. Aktvyai are crucial for the operation and success of a business, as they represent the resources available to generate future economic benefits.

The classification of aktvyai can vary. Current aktvyai are those expected to be converted into cash or used up within one year or the operating cycle of the business, whichever is longer. Examples include cash, accounts receivable, and short-term investments. Non-current aktvyai, also known as fixed or long-term assets, are those with a useful life of more than one year, such as land, buildings, and equipment.

In accounting, aktvyai are recorded on the balance sheet. Their value is typically determined by their historical cost, though in some cases, fair market value may be used. The management of aktvyai involves decisions about acquisition, utilization, and disposal to maximize their contribution to the organization's goals. Understanding and effectively managing aktvyai is a fundamental aspect of financial management and business strategy.
