So please give me advice for accounts entry.

Quick Summary
This discussion addresses accounting entries for refurbishing a leased restaurant. The advice suggests treating expenditures like plumbing, electrical, and tiles as leasehold improvements. These costs should be depreciated equally over the lease term, as the improvements become part of the property and are not retained by the lessee after the lease ends.

Correct.

Divide the expenditure equally over the period of lease.

This is not a right to use asset like in indas. Your running a business and your paying lease for the building. But the tiles fall under asset criteria and its leasehold improvements. You can depreciate it based on the term of the lease because the lessor will take it away from you.
