PP&E (Property, Plant and Equipment)
Property, Plant, and Equipment (PP&E) is a non-current, tangible capital asset shown on the balance sheet of a business and is used to generate revenues and profits. PP&E plays a key part in the financial planning and analysis of a company’s operations and future expenditures, especially with regards to capital expenditures.


Accounting and Auditing Requirements in Taiwan follow International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS); and Chinese Accounting Standards in mainland China have few differences from IFRS. Even so, same terms are used to denote same concepts in English.
