    I think Replacement Flooring would be considered as a Capitalized Expenditure because it's the part of the Premises that's asset.

    You could make a strong argument to capitalize or expense both the floor replacement and the decorating.

    But without knowing more specific facts, it is all a grey area.

    The flooring probably should be capitalized and the decorating expensed, but it doesn't have to be like that.
