(3) If the words "including" or "includes" are used in the description of an asset in column 1 of a table, then each item listed in that description is to be treated as a separate asset and the effective life of that item is the period specified in column 2. (4) If the word "incorporating" is used in the description of an asset in column 1 of a table, then all the items that are listed in that description are merely components of that asset and are not to be treated as separate assets. (5) A hash (#) in the third column of a table indicates a capped life is available for the depreciating assets under section 40-102 of the Act.
