Assemble your own PC. How to combine parts to book as an investment.

Question

I built my own PC by buying all kinds of (second-hand) parts. Almost every part was cheaper than €250, so I normally have to book it as an expense and not as an investment. However, the total cost of the entire PC was considerably more than £250. How can I combine all these small purchases to make them an investment so that I can write them off?

Take a look at the learning centre on buying from private persons. https://player.vimeo.com/video/922420525?utm_source=learning_center&utm_medium=referral

Kind regards, Kurt

Dear Kurt,
I already knew that I could make purchases from a private person (without charging vAT) and how to record them. My question was mainly how I could group a amount of small purchases (PC parts £250) and record it as an investment (and therefore also depreciate it yearly). I did not receive an answer to that question.
