Quick Summary
This discussion explores the accounting implications of solar panels damaged by monkeys. It considers whether repairs should be treated as capital expenditure or revenue expenditure, especially if the panels are fully damaged. The options of repairing, writing off the asset, or selling for scrap are examined, with advice on capitalising repairs that extend the panel's life.

If repairs are not to be done then transfer asset to asset write off account in pl.
Repairs done will be of revenue nature
If repairs done after writing off then repairs will be capitalised. This however is not recommended.

If this repair will increase the life of the solar panels then treat as capital expenditure. 

Due to damages by monkey the panels are not working now the firm have two option either reparing or sell it as scarp so does this repair is capitalised or not
