As per the properties of an asset, an asset should have the following characteristics:

  1. Should be owned by the business.
  2. Can be tangible or intangible.
  3. Should have value attached.
  4. Should be capable of being measured in money terms.

Since, Mohan has employed Sujit, it cannot be said that Mohan owns Sujit. Also, valuing a human resource does not mean that it has been measured in terms of money. Therefore, based on the above features of an asset, classifying Sujit as an asset in the books of accounts is not correct.
