    A transport company recently fixed Air conditioner into its transport vehicles and as a result of this, the transport fare increased and the company is still able to maintain its existing customers.
    should i capitalize this cost of A/C or expense it

    The units are separate identifiable units. They have an expected useful life of greater than one year (I generally use this as a guide although it is not a hard and fast rule).
    Recall IAS 16:
    1. future economic benefit flowing to the entity – increased fares as a result of A/C units
    2. separate identifiable units – a/c in bus
    3. cost can be measured reliably – units separately purchased from buses
