Non-current assets are often a highly significant component of the total assets of an entity. Therefore, a number of different International Financial Reporting Standards have been published which regulate their definition, recognition, measurement and disclosure.

IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment and IAS 38 Intangible Assets specifically regulate the recognition, measurement and disclosure of tangible and intangible assets respectively.
