  • Goodwill
  • Internet domain name
  • Radio broadcasting rights
  • Customer list
  • Video copyrights
  • Trade name.

An intangible asset refers to an asset with no physical form.

An intangible asset is a long-term asset that accrues value every year.

Some examples of intangible assets include intellectual property, brand recognition and reputation, relationships, copyrights, patents, trademarks, trade names, customer lists, and goodwill.

Before an asset is recognized in the financial books, it must be a resource owned or controlled by an (economic) entity, used to produce positive and further economic value, and represent convertible ownership value.
