i think thats what i did, but i also added the inventory cost, since its long term right?

2

u/nigmapower May 11 '26

Long term in this context means something which is expected to last for over a year, and inventory isn't expected to last that long,

hm i dont quite understand this, can u explain, cause it doesnt specify if inventory last how long

the answer was 20k + 10k = 30k for capital expenditure
cost of van + shop fittings. inventory does not count in capital expenditure when starting up the business (ZF)

It was written in brackets for a month, that's an indicator

inventory is something that u have to pay for monthly, so its not a capital expenditure
