Your making this a bigger deal then it is. As a company you have quite good control and knowledge over that cost. If I want a new desk and have the company pay for it, I can just come with a 10k bill. The company can lay out a bunch of avg prices for certain things and that's that. It not like everybody has some unique equipment. I basically need a chair, a desk, a laptop and maybe a monitor. Those cost are easy controlled. Expense systems are already in place for basically all companies as well.
