INX Corp has done its first draft of the Q1 financial statements. The first draft of Q1 earnings is $0.20 per share. The market is expecting $0.25 per share. The CEO called a meeting to ask your advice on the accounting treatment of two outstanding items that could affect Q3 earnings.

• I was looking at your maintenance costs and it looks like there is an additional $0.04 per share of maintenance expense included in the Q3 $0.20 per share. I understand this extra maintenance occurred because we deferred maintenance from last year. Can we spread this over the full year and only take $0.01 this quarter? That would increase our Q1 EPS by $0.03 per share?
• The relocating of the Virginia office came to $0.03 per share. You included all that cost in the Q1 $0.20 per share. I think we can spread that cost over the full year as well, further increasing our Q1 EPS by an additional $0.025 per share.

Can we do it? What's the FASB codification to support this change?
