Money and monuments

Smith, Philip

Money and monuments - 2007 - Accountancy 139(1362) February 2007, 22-25(4) .

Discusses how historical and ancient assets can be accounted for under new accountancy reporting standards. Argues that it may not be possible to put a realistic price on such assets as Stonehenge, the Elgin Marbles or work by Renaissance masters, and that the cost of valuation may be prohibitively high for organisations with large collections.
