marriage = capital expenditure.

p/s : curi n edit otai punya..

marriage = capital expenditure. everything in life seems to have connection with FRS (Financial Reporting Standard). bab kawin pun boleh di relate dengan FRS. first, what is capital expenditure?

Capital expenditure is expenditure creating future benefits. capital expenditure incurred when a company spends money to buy fixed assets or to add to the value of existing fixed asset with a useful life that extends beyond the taxable year. (accounting students will understand)

in simple sentence, capital expenditure incurs when we buy fixed asset, and in this matter, kahwin is fixed asset as it has long 'useful life' and of course it costly. and, oh it will bring future benefits as well. a genius friend said, he created this theory because, fixed asset must be depreciated and it might also be revalued.

depreciation in marriage might occur as when time goes by, couple might find out that they are no longer interested with each other year by year by year by year and the value of a marriage will decrease. however, revaluation might also happen if the couple manage to keep their relationship as sweet, or i should say sweeter than their honeymoon days or their gewe2 days - the days when they feel like the world is belong to them! and the relationship even better year after year after year after year. so, that is revaluation term.

now we move on to calculation part :-

initial cost:

item/event (RM)

merisik - 1000

bertunang -
- cincin - 1000
- hantaran tanda - 1000

kahwin.
- cincin - 1000
- tempah mak andam - 3000
- wang hantaran - 8888
- mas kahwin - 90
- food - 15000
- miscellaneous/tanda mata - 5000

TOTAL = 35978. (more or less)

look at the cost, it it just an estimated cost. it might be higher and it also might be lower. after calculating the initial cost, we can now calculate for the depreciation, if it does occur. let say the useful life of a marriage is 50 years. so we divide the total cost by 50.

so RM 719.56 each year. and of coure siti nurhaliza depreciate more because she cost more. and erra fazira depreciate even more from the first marriage. ehem. mampus.

err, ehmm...

revaluation might also take place. you might boost up the value of your marriage if you manage to keep it sweet. like ive mention earlier.

so, manipulating accounting theory is fun. and just bear in mind that a fixed asset might damage also. be careful!! tapi mintak jauh la kan..

sadaqallahul' azim...
