MONETARY ITEM
Assets or liabilities that have a fixed exchange value unaffected by inflation or deflation. These monetary assets have a fixed numerical value (in dollar), and a dollar is always worth a dollar. The numbers don’t change even if its purchasing power does. There is a clear distinction between monetary item and non-monetary item such as a factory. The latter (factory) will see its value, the price is represented as a number of dollar, and fluctuates over time. It may lose its value through the year, as it becomes outdated or gain its value as a city spurs around it.
