036: What is CapEx?

ANSWER


Capital Expenditure (CapEx): CapEx is the spending of money on physical infrastructure up front, and then deducting that expense from your tax bill over time. CapEx is an upfront cost, which has a value that reduces over time.

Reference:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/learn/modules/principles-cloud-computing/3c-capex-vs-opex

 

037: What is OpEx?

ANSWER


Operational Expenditure (OpEx): OpEx is spending money on services or products now and being billed for them now. You can deduct this expense from your tax bill in the same year. There’s no upfront cost. You pay for a service or product as you use it.

Reference:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/learn/modules/principles-cloud-computing/3c-capex-vs-opex

 

038: What are the benefits of CapEx?

ANSWER


With capital expenditures, you plan your expenses at the start of a project or budget period. Your costs are fixed, meaning you know exactly how much is being spent. This is appealing when you need to predict the expenses before a project starts due to a limited budget.

Reference:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/learn/modules/principles-cloud-computing/3c-capex-vs-opex

 

039: What are the benefits of OpEx?

ANSWER


With the OpEx model, companies wanting to try a new product or service don’t need to invest in equipment. Instead, they pay as much or as little for the infrastructure as required. OpEx is particularly appealing if the demand fluctuates or is unknown. Cloud services are often said to be agile. Cloud agility is the ability to rapidly change an IT infrastructure to adapt to the evolving needs of the business.
