Effective life (by industry)

Table A lists assets that are specific to a particular industry or for which a particular effective life is appropriate because of the way the asset is used in that industry. Industry headings are generally drawn from the classification subject categories in the ANZSIC codes. You may only use the effective life for an asset listed in this table if you are a participant of the industry under which the asset is listed.

If you cannot find your asset in this listing or you are not a participant of that industry, go to Table B .
