Works of art and historical treasures would not be recognized as tangible capital assets in government financial statements because a reasonable estimate of the future benefits associated with such property cannot be made.

Proper recordation imparts constructive notice to the world of the existence of the recorded document and its contents. It protects both innocent purchasers for value who act in ignorance of an unrecorded instrument and the grantee in the event that the deed is altered or lost. Any conveyance not properly recorded is generally void as against any subsequent purchaser, lessee, or mortgagee in good faith and for a valuable consideration who, without having actual notice of the unrecorded conveyance, records his or her subsequent interest in the property.(Reilly, 2nd ed., 1982, p. 396). 2, record 9, English, - unrecorded

Because a weak layer cannot effectively transmit the shear forces from the overburden snow, stress and strain-rate concentrations at the ends of the weak layer are generated.
