Patents and copyrights are classified as intangible assets on the balance sheet.

An intangible asset is something that belongs to the company but can not be touched or seen. A copyright and a patent both belong to the company but are not a physical object that can be touched.

An intangible asset is an identifiable, non-quantifiable asset without any physical substance.

  • This asset can be identified whiten it is separable or when it comes to light from legal and contractual rights.  
  • Separable assets are the assets that can be licensed, transferred, or sold.
  • Import quotas, copyrights, films, patents, trademarks, licenses, and software are intangible assets.  
  • So, we can say that patents and copyrights are classified as intangible assets on the balance sheet.
