Capital expenditure - Capital expenditure, or CapEx, are funds used by a company to acquire, upgrade, and maintain physical assets such as property, industrial buildings, or equipment.This type of financial outlay is also made by companies to maintain or increase the scope of their operations.
Revenue expenditure - A revenue expenditure is an amount that is expended immediately—thereby being matched with revenues of the current accounting period. Routine repairs are revenue expenditures because they are charged directly to an account such as Repairs and Maintenance Expense.
