Can you give an example? In Australia, you'd need to buy hardware or software for more than $30,000 per unit to be forced to depreciate it over multiple periods. Anything cheaper than $30,000 can be expensed right away. So I'm looking at it through Australian optics and having "Hardware/software" under expenses would be fine for almost every small business here.
Yeah, I guess you're right. It's just confusing to see them call the spreadsheet "Cashflow projections" and then use the words 'expenses' and 'profit/loss'. But then again, they also use 'expenditures', so who knows what they're going for. In their example spreadsheet (and to your point) I guess all the expenditures could correspond 1:1 with expenses, so in this case cashflow == profit maybe.
