Hey, as long as the temporary digs have a pool and a fully stocked bar, I don't care how they classify the costs!

The real question is, will the new campus have a slide instead of stairs? Now that's the kind of capital investment I'd approve of!

Hmm, I'm leaning towards D. It's like renting a temporary office space while your new headquarters is under construction. Gotta factor that in, right?

B seems logical, but I'm not convinced. Wouldn't the temporary accommodation be considered a capital investment rather than a revenue cost?

I disagree with C. The Financial Appraisal is focused on capital costs, not revenue costs. So the temporary accommodation cost should not be considered as a running cost.

I think the answer is D. The cost of the temporary accommodation is a necessary expense to facilitate the development of the new campus, so it should be treated as a capital cost in the Financial Appraisal.
