interconnection fee and a usufructuary fee. The second result describe that the users
classify the frequency spectrum as an intangible asset (license) based on the
characteristic of the transaction with owners. Meanwhile, the Ministry of
Communication and Informatics as the owner is irrelevant classifying the frequency
spectrum as an intangible asset because there is no reliable valuation of the
frequency spectrum. But, based on the literature studies and interviews, the
frequency spectrum could be classified as fixed/ tangible assets. The last result
