    I would also add that you shouldn't let your expectations around how long you'll keep your company for cloud your judgement over whether to capitalise an item or not. If you choose to depreciate an asset over 5 years but shut up shop in 4 then there will simply be residual value left in the asset that you can choose to either write off at the time you close your company or use as the valuation basis for you to buy the asset from the company.

    The key point with assets is to keep track of them. This is especially important around disposals and write offs.
