Summary/Abstract: Testing of the system of accounting and internal control of transactions with non-current assets was considered in the article. The objective of the article is to study the necessity, importance and position of testing in the assessment of accounting and internal control, as well as the presentation of the author's version of the test of transactions with non-current assets.This study was conducted using the historical method, methods of analysis, generalization, grouping and comparison. For better perception of the information and when testing the system of accounting and internal control of transactions with non-current assets the method of graphical representation was used.According to the study results it was found that testing procedures are important in assessing the company's accounting and internal control system. It has also been found that there is currently no single definition of "testing", which leads to inconsistencies and ambiguities in the use of this term. It was found that testing was used mainly during audits to identify "weaknesses", to adjust the audit process and to use specific procedures. Currently, the limits of the use of testing have expanded and are used in the overall assessment of accounting and internal control system, and to establish its effectiveness and feasibility. We have deepened our understanding of the assessment of internal control system through tests and tried to change the attitude to the testing system as an effective management tool. The presented test of assessment of the system of accounting and internal control of operations with non-current assets covers all stages of the "life cycle" of their certain types in the company.Prospects for further research are seen in the development of tests of accounting and internal control of certain non-current assets (intangible assets, work in progress, fixed assets, investment property, long-term biological assets, long-term financial investments, long-term receivables, deferred tax assets, other non-current assets) taking into account industry characteristics, types of economic activity, organizational and legal forms of economic entities.
