Explanation

Capital Expenditure (CapEx) refers to funds spent to acquire, upgrade, or maintain long-term physical assets that provide value over multiple years. Vehicles are tangible, long-lived assets that appear on a balance sheet and are depreciated over time - a classic CapEx example. Taxes (A), salaries (C), and utilities (D) are all Operating Expenditures (OpEx): recurring, short-term costs required to run day-to-day business operations. The key distinction is that CapEx creates a lasting asset, while OpEx is consumed in the current period.
