   ASC 350-950 governs accounting for title plants — the indexed historical records of land ownership, encumbrances, maps, and prior title reports used by title insurers, abstract entities, and title agents. Costs directly identifiable with constructing a title plant (and purchased title plants, recorded at cost/fair value of consideration given) are capitalized, while maintenance and title search costs are expensed as incurred. Capitalized title plant is not amortized or depreciated; it is carried indefinitely unless impaired under the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets Subsections of Subtopic 360-10.
