     Section 15.5 of the Guide enumerates fixed asset types, and chapter
     16 Depreciation goes into a bit of detail about this complex
     subject. The broad concepts are covered there, but consulting with a
     local expert is recommended in this area.

     GnuCash.

     info you want, with regard to that asset.
