Specifically, capital assets include land, improvements to land, easements, buildings and building improvements, vehicles, machinery, equipment, works of art and historical treasures, infrastructure, and all other tangible or intangible assets that are used in operations and that have initial useful lives that extend beyond a single reporting period.
211 | Land and Land Improvements.  A capital asset account that reflects the acquisition value of land owned by a school district.  If land is purchased, this account includes the purchase price and costs such as legal fees, filling and excavation costs, and other associated improvement costs incurred to put the land in condition for its intended use.  If land is acquired by gift, the account reflects its fair value at the time of acquisition.  Further, permanent improvements to land, such as grading and fill, should be accounted for in this account.
 | Note: Land and land improvements are considered nonexhaustible assets owing to their significantly long expected useful life.  Nonexhaustible assets are not to be depreciated.  Therefore, all assets classified by asset code 211 will not result in a depreciation expense.
221 | Site Improvements.  A capital asset account that reflects the value of non-permanent improvements to building sites, other than buildings, that add value to land.  Examples of such improvements are fences, retaining walls, sidewalks, pavements, gutters, tunnels, and bridges. If the improvements are purchased or constructed, this account contains the purchase or contract price.  If improvements are obtained by gift, it reflects the fair value at the time of acquisition.
 | Note: Site improvements are improvements that have a limited useful life.  Because these improvements decrease in their value/usefulness over time, it is appropriate to depreciate these assets.  Therefore, all capitalized site improvements should be depreciated over their expected useful life.
222 | Accumulated Depreciation on Site Improvements.  Accumulated amounts for the depreciation of land improvements.
231 | Buildings and Building Improvements.  A capital asset account that reflects the acquisition value of permanent structures used to house persons and property owned by the school district.  If buildings are purchased or constructed, this account includes the purchase or contract price of all permanent buildings and the fixtures attached to and forming a permanent part of such buildings.  This account includes all building improvements, including upgrades made to building wiring for technology.  If buildings are acquired by gift, the account reflects their fair value at the time of acquisition.

Examples are machinery, tools, trucks, cars, buses, computers, purchased software, furniture, and furnishings.  See Supplies and Equipment tab at end of file to distinguish whether a purchase is a supply or a piece of machinery or equipment.

511 | Bonds Payable.  Bonds that have not reached or passed their maturity date and that are not due within one year.
512 | Accreted Interest. (Accretion is the process of systematically increasing the carrying amount of the bond to its estimated value at the maturity date of the bond.)   An account that represents interest that is accrued on deep discount bonds.  This account should be used by school districts that issue capital appreciation bonds.  Such bonds are usually issued at a deep discount from the face value, and no interest payment is made until maturity.  Under full accrual account, the district is required to accrete the interest on the bonds over the life of the bonds.  To calculate accreted interest, the district should impute the effective interest rate, using the present value, the face value (or the future value), and the period of the bond, and multiply the effective interest rate by the book value of the debt at the end of the period.  Accreted interest is usually recorded as an addition to the outstanding debt liability.

An account that represents the difference between the reacquisition price and the net carrying amount of old debt when a current or advance refunding of debt occurs.  This account should be used only when  defeasance of debt occurs for Proprietary funds.  The unamortized loss amount should be deferred and amortized as a component of interest expense in a systematic and rational manner over the remaining life of the old debt or the life of the new debt, whichever is shorter.  On the balance sheet, this deferred amount should be reported as a deduction from or an addition to the new debt liability.
521 | Loans Payable.  An unconditional written promise signed by the maker to pay a certain sum of money one year or more after the issuance date.
531 | Capital Lease Obligations.  Amounts remaining to be paid on capital lease agreements.

711 | Reserve for Inventories.
