@garrmark @chzy What sort of objections is the CFO raising? I think I know but don't want to assume.

@barryhawkins His main goal is to show that developers can capitalize more than %60 time. Due to taking on more roles, this is a challenge

barryhawkins Barry Hawkins
@garrmark All parts of Agile processes are involved in producing, so it's all capitalized in every place I've done it.

@barryhawkins That's an interesting perspective. Traditionally software architecture and design arent capitalized, developmen and test are

@garrmark A tradition to consider changing. :-) Likely stems from the artificial nature of phased SDLCs.

@barryhawkins I think the big problem is accountants try to follow GAAP, which has wording of phased SDLCs bit.ly/xGIc8c

.@garrmark If GAAP is cited, you can say that it's all filed under "technical feasibility" and none under "R&D"; be ready to explain why.
