Quick Summary
This discussion explores whether the cost of replacing existing hotel bulbs with energy-saving LEDs can be capitalised. The general consensus is that it's unlikely, as the benefit from bulbs is typically expected to last less than one financial year. Capitalisation of assets is usually based on expected long-term benefit rather than the amount spent.

Capitalisation of assets is not based on the sum involved.

Capitalisation of bulb is not possible since one would not expect the benifit from would b available for more than 1 financial year especially in case of hotels
