Capital Expenditure (CapEx) refers to funds used by a company to acquire, upgrade, or maintain physical assets such as property, buildings, or equipment.

How is CapEx different from OpEx?

CapEx is a long-term investment in assets, while Operating Expenses (OpEx) are recurring costs for daily operations like rent, utilities, and salaries.

What is the CapEx formula?

CapEx = ΔPP&E + Current Depreciation, where ΔPP&E is the change in property, plant, and equipment.

How does CapEx impact financial statements?

CapEx appears on the balance sheet as an asset and is depreciated over time, affecting both the income statement and cash flow statement.

How can ERP software help manage CapEx?

ERP systems like Acumatica help track capital projects, manage budgets, forecast ROI, and ensure compliance with financial reporting standards.
